The Puritan Players will present “Babes in Warmland,” a new musical by Paul L. Williams, former Mayor of Clarks Green, on March 30 and 31 at 7 p.m. at Puritan Congregational Church, 210 West Market Street, Scranton.

“Babes in Warmland” concerns the early days of television and rock and roll in the Electric City and the attempts of teenage scientists to concoct such golden oldies as “Johnny B. Goode,” “Love Potion 39,” “Mr. Sandman,” and “Rock Around the Clock.”

A homemade pasta dinner will be served before the performances. Dinner tickets are $5. Those who attend the event will also be able to purchase tickets to win more than 40 gift baskets with merchandise from local businesses.

Paul L. Williams is an award-winning journalist and the author. He is a frequent guest on national news outlets, including Fox News, CNN, MSNBC and PBS.
