According to a press release:
 
Tim Krompier is a dynamic comedy veteran whose performances are both deeply personal and irresistibly entertaining. His style blends autobiographical storytelling with physically expressive character work, all delivered with a self-aware charm that reflects the wit of a seasoned performer and the mischief of a reformed partygoer. A regular in comedy clubs and theaters nationwide, Tim has earned a reputation as a loveable and charismatic headliner. He also maintains a strong presence in New York City and Long Island, where he performs weekly.
 
John Ziegler, born and raised in New York, John was the winner of the 2016 "Funniest Comic on the East Coast" Contest at Mohegan Sun.  John has opened for such comics as Sebastian Maniscalco, Gilbert Gottfried, Jim Breuer and Robert Klein. His first Comedy Special, "Getting My Affairs in Order" is available on Youtube. He currently headlines clubs across the country and regularly tours with legendary comedian Bobby Collins.
 
ZipStohr Comedy was originally created by Rick Stohr and David "Zip" Zerbato in 2005. Over the years, they brought many comedians to Pittsfield, including big names like Bill Burr, Michael Che, and John Mulaney. Zip passed away after a long battle with diabetes, and Rick has continued to book shows in honor of his dear friend. The Adams Theater is delighted to become a home for ZipStohr's programming.

Cheshire West Mountain Bridge Reconstruction Eyed for April

By Sabrina DammsiBerkshires Staff
CHESHIRE, Mass. — The town is hoping to start the reconstruction of the West Mountain Road bridge in April. 
 
The steel culvert, which carries West Mountain Road over Kitchen Brook, has several structural and erosion-related issues, including cracking, rusting, minor wall displacement, sinkholes, partially failed and dulled galvanized coating, roadway settlement, and signs of leakage. 
 
According to the state Structures Inspection Field Report from January 2025, the structure is a single-barrel corrugated steel arch with an open bottom supporting fill with an asphalt wearing surface.
 
The town was previously awarded a small municipal bridge grant to cover the engineering costs, which was done by Gill Engineering.
 
The town was again awarded another bridge grant for the reconstruction project, anticipated to cost $770,518, with the bid being awarded to CD Davenport of Greenfield. 
 
According to the plans from Gill Engineering, the project will include repairing the bridge's foundation, reinforcing the sides of the crossing, rebuilding the road surface, and adding new guardrails and drainage. 
 
During excavation, the contractors will take "extreme care" not to damage the existing corrugated steel culvert. To prevent unbalanced loading, they will remove equal amounts of fill from both sides simultaneously.
