  • 'Little Shop of Horrors' is a sensory delight

    Elizabeth Youngman-Westphal, Special to The Village News|Updated Jun 10, 2019

    Quite often it can take a bit of tweaking to get something just right. And this time New Village Arts did! In his third directorial effort, A.J. Knox has a hit on his hands!

(One must take into account when Audrey II begs Seymour to "feed me, feed me.") Whimsical and charming, in a kitschy, quirky way, set designer Doug C... Full story

  • 'A Walk in the Woods'

    Elizabeth Youngman-Westphal, Special to The Village News|Updated Jun 6, 2019

    There is a parable about the old bull and the young bull standing on a hill.

"A Walk in the Woods" is a retelling of what might have happened between two negotiators working toward peace. Based loosely on the real-life happenings when in July 1982, Paul Nitze and Yuli A. Kvitsinsky chose to take a stroll up a logging road to escape possible bugging in their...

    Now in its fifth extension – and finally, the final, final extension it was announced – the hit musical comedy “Chaps” is running until May 26. If you have forgotten, it is about a BBC broadcast that goes awry just as it is time to go on the air. At air time, Tex Riley’s Radio Round-Up cowboy band hasn’t arrived at the studio.

  • Get your groove on with 'Sister Act'

    Elizabeth Youngman Westphal, Special to The Village News|Updated May 6, 2019

    Polyester is made through the "esterification condensation of polyfunctional alcohols and acids." It is the linking of these esters which make the fabric impervious to biodegrading. In other words, while the raging Colorado river may have only taken a few billion years to cut a gorge known as the Grand Canyon, polyester, along with atomic waste, will remain on this planet until the second big bang. All of this is leading up to an explosion of man-made fabric adorning the heave...

  • "Best of Enemies:" best film of the year thus far

    Ian Murdock, Special to Village News|Updated Apr 22, 2019

    Based on a true story surrounding school desegregation in 1971 North Carolina, “Best of Enemies,” starring Taraji Henson and Sam Rockwell, brilliantly and emotionally portrays those extremely heated and controversial times. After an unexplained or inexplicable event, Rockwell, who is the leader of the local Klu Klux Klan, and Henson, who is a local black activist, are cleverly forced to face each others viewpoints – and demons. Simply divine writing of this nature engrosses the viewer throughout the film. Henson’s gritty,...
