Every week we read through everything happening across the South Shore and keep only what is actually worth your time. Here is what is on in Islip this weekend.
For Families in Islip this weekend: Extraordinarily You at CM Performing Arts Center (Sunday 6:00PM).
A pageant for boys and girls of all abilities, presented by Find Your Tribe at CMPAC, built to give every kid the excitement of being onstage, with confidence, friendships and accomplishments celebrated. Ticket prices are on the CMPAC page.
Date Night & Nightlife in Islip this weekend: The Golden Ghouls: A Halloween Murder Mystery at Bayway Arts Center (Friday 7:00PM).
An interactive Halloween murder mystery comedy: the Golden Ghouls are back as witches (Dorothea, Pendora Sophia, Blanchetta, Rosalinda and the cursed Demon Belial), and the audience's laughter might be the cure. Ticket prices are on Bayway's ticket page.
Also Happening This Weekend in Islip: PSYCHIC READING EXPERIENCE & DINNER at Oakdale Brew House (Thursday 6:30PM); Drop-In Trick-Or-Treating at East Islip Public Library (Saturday 9:00AM).
The venue page prints only the date and 6:30 to 7:30 PM, no price, no reservation note, no description; not enough to place.
A Halloween treat at the library's two reference and circulation desks while supplies last, 9 to 5, caregivers present. Not placed: a treat at the desk, not an outing.
