The three-time Tony Award winning laugh riot Lend Me A Tenor follows the misadventures of Max and the Cleveland Grand Opera company. After preparing a lovely reception for Il Stupendo, the greatest tenor of his generation, for a one-night only performance in Pagliacci Max finds his star on the verge of death, the theatre in potential ruins, and worst of all his fiance has a thing for tenors! As Max dons the makeup to stand in for Il Stupendo, hilarity and mischief ensue.

"A furiously paced comedy with more than a touch of the Marx brothers … A marvelous combination of wonderful farcical moments and funny lines." – Time Out

Now an aspiring young architect in Terre Haute, Indiana, Willum Cubbert has often told his friends about the debt he owes to Rick Steadman, a fellow ex-GI whom he has never met but who saved his life after he was seriously wounded in Vietnam. He has written to Rick to say that, as long as he is alive, “you will have somebody on Earth who will do anything for you” —so Willum is delighted when Rick shows up unexpectedly at his apartment on the night of his thirty-fourth birthday party. But his delight soon fades as it becomes apparent that Rick is a hopeless “nerd” —a bumbling oaf with no social sense, little intelligence and less tact. And Rick stays on and on, his continued presence among Willum and his friends leading to one uproarious incident after another, until the normally placid Willum finds himself contemplating violence—a dire development which, happily, is staved off by the surprising “twist” ending of the play.

The Nerd is presented by arrangement with Broadway Licensing LLC, servicing The Dramatists Play Service Collection.

Free Books Saturday is a day to browse free gently used and sorted, good quality books for all ages.

Falmouth Memorial Library is pleased to announce that Illustration Institute's The Great State of Illustration in Maine will be on display at the Library from November 8, 2025, through January 31, 2026. This exhibition celebrates the rich, diverse cultural heritage of over 80 Maine-connected illustrators such as Ashley Bryan, Barbara Cooney, Dahlov Ipcar, Melissa Sweet, Chris Van Dusen, N.C. Wyeth, and more. The Great State of Illustration in Maine will showcase illustration as an art form in the very place where books are easily and publicly accessed. "We are thrilled to welcome Illustration Institute to Falmouth Memorial Library and offer an exhibition of this depth and breadth to our community. We hope visitors from around our State will come enjoy this collection of incredible illustrations, and take advantage of exciting, related programming over the next three months," commented Jenna Mayotte, Library Director.

The Camden Public Library will hold a special Winterfest Book Sale in the Blue Door Book Shed on Saturday, January 31, from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. during Camden Winterfest!

At any point during Winterfest you can head to the Blue Door Book Shed to pick up some great winter reads or gifts at fantastic prices, all while supporting the library!

The Blue Door Book Shed is located at the small parking lot off of Atlantic Avenue and can also be reached by walking through the Amphitheatre.

Cozy up with us for a great winter craft! Spend a morning needle felting, a method of felting that allows you to create three dimensional pieces with color and character. Draw inspiration from the winter visitors to the bird feeders right outside the window here at Fields Pond. This beginner-friendly class will provide all necessary supplies and teach you how to bring your creativity to life! Not a beginner? No problem! Crafters of any skill level are welcome to join.

Celebrate the conclusion to the Falmouth Memorial Library's Great State of Illustration in Maine art exhibit! Come challenge Illustration Institute's co-founder author/illustrator Scott Nash and a surprise guest with your silliest requests for a drawing. In front of the crowd, Scott and his guest will draw your idea (to the best of their ability on the spot!) without seeing each other's interpretation - yet you will see both. An entertaining event that cheers on creativity in action and the notion that there are, indeed, many ways to draw a unicorn riding a bicycle in a snowstorm! Join us as we close our exhibition with a lively celebration of illustration. You won't want to miss the final program in the Illustration Institute Great Slate of Programming series!

All ages are welcome. Registration is required. Register at https://falmouth.librarycalendar.com/IIDrawoff
