Rules are what have kept her and her sister\, Molly\, alive—or\, rather\, undead—for over a century. Work their historic movie theater by day. Shift into an owl under the cover of night. Feed on men in secret. And never fall in love.But Molly is in love. And she’s tired of keeping her girlfriend\, Anat\, a secret. If Clara won’t agree to bend their rules a little\, then she will bend them herself.Boaz is cursed. He can’t walk two city blocks without being cornered by something undead. At least at work at the theater\, he gets to flirt with Clara\, wishing she would like him back.When Anat vanishes and New York’s monstrous underworld emerges from the shadows\, Clara suspects Boaz\, their annoyingly cute box office attendant\, might be behind it all.But if they are to find Anat\, they will need to work together to face demons and the hungers they would sooner bury. Clara will have to break all her rules—of love\, of life\, and of death itself—before her rules break everyone she loves. \nIn this stand-alone debut\, A. R. Vishny interweaves mystery\, romance\, and lore to create an unputdownable story about those who have kept to the shadows for far too long. \nThis event is free for students. \nCommunity partner: Marblehead High School \n \n Get Tickets URL:https://jccns.org/event/a-r-vishny-night-owls/ LOCATION:JCCNS\, 4 Community Rd.\, Marblehead\, MA\, 01945 CATEGORIES:JBM ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://jccns.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/JBM-2025-Eblast-10-23-Vishny-img.png ORGANIZER;CN="Susan Wood":MAILTO:swood@jccns.com END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20251023T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20251023T123000 DTSTAMP:20250926T184350Z CREATED:20250922T155737Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250926T184350Z UID:10001637-1761219000-1761222600@jccns.org SUMMARY:This Presentation Will Put You to Sleep\, with Paul Crosby\, LICSW DESCRIPTION:This presentation will\, in an entertaining and interactive way\, teach you what sleep is and does for you\, provide practical tips for getting a good night’s sleep\, and answer the always controversial question\, “should I take a nap?” \nCoffee and bagels will be served. \nEvent is FREE\, please RSVP below. \nPaul Crosby is a licensed\, independent clinical social worker with a master’s degree from Boston University\, earned in 1977.

Born in New York City in 1942\, Carole shaped the soundtrack of 1960s teen culture with such iconic songs as “Will You Love Me Tomorrow\,” one of many classics she wrote with her first husband\, Gerry Goffin. She was a leading figure in the singer-songwriter movement of the 1970s\, with dozens of Billboard Hot 100 hits and music awards—her 1971 album Tapestry won a record four Grammy awards. Yet Carole struggled to reconcile her fame with her roles as a wife and mother and eventually retreated to the backwoods of Idaho\, only to emerge in recent years as a political activist and the subject of the Tony-winning Broadway show Beautiful: The Carole King Musical. In this in-depth biography\, journalist and author Jane Eisner places King’s life in historical and cultural context\, revealing details of her humble beginnings in Jewish Brooklyn\, the roots of her musical genius\, her four marriages\, and her anguish about public life.
