The BMC English Club tried something new this semester and took a trip on October 22 to see a live performance of Macbeth. The first destination was Cafe Piazza, a beautiful Italian restaurant with delicious pastas and sandwiches with a beautiful sunset for a view.

The town square was decorated beautifully, and a Christmas tree was a
