A NEW LIFE

Becky Foster is working at a car dealership and is stuck in a rut. Middle-aged and mostly bored, she’s hoping for something new, something exciting. Then, out of the blue, a grief-stricken millionaire stumbles in, offering her a new life. Join Becky for a ride you won’t forget at Gateway City Arts at 92 Race St. in Holyoke.

“Becky’s New Car,” presented by Ghost Light Theater, starts Friday at 8 p.m. and runs this weekend and next. Tickets are $10 at the door or online. To reserve, or for a full schedule, visit www.facebook.com/ghostlightmass.
