Two Closing Dates To Plan Around

This weekend offers a choice between gallery time in Falmouth and a theater performance in Brewster. Highfield Hall & Gardens lists three exhibitions ending Sunday, October 25, 2026, while Cape Rep Theatre’s published run of The Fall of the House of Usher also ends that day. We checked the institutions’ own pages on October 23. Choose the visit that fits your interests and where you are staying before adding a meal or another stop; these are separate outings in different parts of the Cape.

Highfield: Leave Time Before The Galleries Close

Highfield’s current exhibition list gives October 25 closing dates for the IRC Basketry Exhibit, Leslie Schomp’s hair drawings, and Deena Gu’s paintings. Its visitor page lists Saturday and Sunday gallery hours of 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Use that earlier closing time when planning a weekend visit; a late-afternoon arrival for the grounds would not provide the same indoor experience. The published visitor address is 56 Highfield Drive, Falmouth. Grounds access and separately scheduled programs follow their own arrangements, so do not treat an exhibition’s end date as closure of the entire property. Check the official pages again before leaving.

Cape Rep: Pick The Performance, Then Arrange The Evening

Cape Rep lists 7:30 p.m. performances on Friday, October 23, and Saturday, October 24, with a 2 p.m. Saturday matinee and a 2 p.m. performance on Sunday, October 25. The production adapts Edgar Allan Poe’s story; its show page says it is not recommended for children and carries a PG-13 advisory. Read that guidance before choosing it for a family outing. The published calendar describes scheduled performances, not remaining seats. Follow the ticket link on the production page or call the box office at 508-896-1888 to confirm the performance you want.

Confirm The Details That Affect Your Visit

Cape Rep’s address is 3299 Main Street, Brewster. Its box-office page directs ticketing questions to the telephone number rather than website email, and notes that late seating is at the house manager’s discretion. Leave time to reach the correct venue and settle in before the start. Ask either institution directly about any access arrangement your visit depends on, and review admission or ticket terms before paying.
