Who: Sophia Bush & Guests

Where: The Bush/Evans Home in Oxbridge Village || Royal, MA

What:

“Hi everyone - Sophia Bush here! Welcome to Work in Progress, where I talk to people who inspire me about how they got to where they are and where they think they’re still going…”

Hosting a podcast has always been a dream of mine, and at the beginning of this year, after the birth of my son CJ in March, I set out to make it a reality. And here we are. I can’t stop pinching myself. You can subscribe at http://apple.co/workinprogress or wherever you listen to podcasts.

This is a space to get personal, professional, and even political (shocker, I know 😜) and it has been one of the most fulfilling, fun, and inspiring things I’ve done over the course of my career to date. I can’t wait for y’all to enjoy it with me! Thanks to each and every one of you who’s pushed me to do this. I heard you loud and clear.

Be sure to follow along at @workinprogress here on IG, so you’ll always have the latest updates.

The WIP Royal Edition will be posted on main to give everyone a better look at our residents!

LIFE IS STRANGE: BEFORE THE STORM -- WRAP PARTY!

MESSAGE FROM KSENIA SOLO: 

“Hey you beauties and gentle-beauties! I wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart for making my dreams come true by helping me to create this amazing masterpiece and I probably will totally cry when we wrap it up and cry even more when it’s all out and done... but hell, it’s gonna be good! So yeah, strap on, babes, because it’s about to get wild. Set your Saturday and Sunday free, because I can only imagine we’re gonna party until it’s dawning. We’ve got some special guests too, you know? The Combine’s very own Jeremy Renner is coming, which is super cool. Also my two Frenchmen, the creative minds behind this whole game (oh yes, the same two dudes who have been living in my house and bringing me crepes in the morning!) are also gonna be there right before they hit the plane back to France. Oh, and in case you were wondering about the music, Elena Tonra and the whole freakin’ Daughter band is gonna be for some live performances, it’s gonna be epic. So, get your punk-concert gear on as a nod to the Firewalk concert in the first episode! Let’s fucking trash this place!“

WHAT: Life Is Strange: Before The Storm wrap party. WHEN: The 9th of June, 2018 (Saturday), from 6 PM till late. WHERE: NotSoVirgin, Centre-Ville, Royal. DRESS CODE: Punk-rock concert. Come wearing the clothes you’d find yourself wearing if you were ever to head over to a concert of Pretty Vicious or something. Be chill, go crazy -- the choice is yours! INVITATION: Everyone’s invited, of course! However, there will be a VIP zone for the cast (with their optional plus ones) and the crew, in case the heat of the party gets a little too crazy.

One of the darkest musicals ever written, Sweeney Todd: A Musical Thriller is the unsettling tale of a Victorian-era barber who returns home to London after fifteen years of exile to take revenge on the corrupt judge who ruined his life. When revenge eludes him, Sweeney swears vengeance on the entire human race, murdering as many people as he can, while his business associate Mrs. Lovett bakes the bodies into meat pies and sells them to the unsuspecting public. Perhaps composer/lyricist Stephen Sondheim’s most perfect score, Sweeney Todd is lush, operatic, and full of soaring beauty, pitch-black comedy and stunning terror. It’s one of the signal achievements of the American musical theater of the last fifty years, and it’s the high water mark of Sondheim’s six remarkable collaborations with director Harold Prince.

Now coming to Royal, directed by resident Arin Hanson, he proudly presents Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber Of Fleet Street.

COMING SOON. CASTING AND AUDITIONS STARTING NOW!

KING LEAR is a play written by William Shakespeare and is about a King who steps down from his throne and decides to divide up his kingdom between his three daughters, but first he tests them to see just how much each would deserve. He asked the three how much each of them loved him, and the youngest, who is also his favorite, remained silent because she didn’t have any words that could describe how much she loved her father. But this explanation didn’t appease the King, so out of rage, he denied her of her land and she decided to marry her husband (the King of France) without her land and moved to his country-- and King Lear soon learns that he has made a grave mistake.

I’m sorry, but how have I been toxic throughout any part of this?
