  • 'Game of Thrones,' 'Veep' make last Emmy Awards stand

    LYNN ELBER AP Television Writer|Updated Sep 19, 2019

    LOS ANGELES (AP) — "Game of Thrones" has dominated the Emmy Awards with the formidable power of, say, your average fearsome, flame-belching dragon. Same goes for "Veep," but picture a cutthroat politician instead. The drama and comedy series are among the front-runners for Sunday's ceremony (5 p.m. Fox) for their concluding seasons, a last chance to rule. But will they? There's suspense as well over the never-crowned women of "Game of Thrones," whether Sandra Oh and Billy Porter will make Emmy history, and how much s... Full story

  • 'Amadeus' is a visual dream

    Elizabeth Youngman-Westphal, Special to Village News|Updated Sep 11, 2019

    "Amadeus" is a visual delight. From the elegant costumes to the lavish set, it appears enough was not a consideration for Emperor Joseph II of Austria. Indicative of the Viennese Court for the 10 years between 1781 and 1791, Emperor Joseph was omnipotent in all things. Even so, he could be influenced by those he trusted like Antonio Salieri, the Royal Kapellmeister (music master). On the day of his death, Salieri (Tony Amendola) recalls his every misdeed even his argument... Full story

  • Apple rolls out new streaming TV service for $5 a month

    Michael Liedtke, AP Technology Writer|Updated Sep 10, 2019

    CUPERTINO — Apple is finally taking on Netflix with its own streaming television service and, uncharacteristically for the company, offering it at a bargain price — $5 a month beginning on Nov. 1. Walt Disney Co. is launching its own assault on Netflix the same month, for just $7. It may be sheer coincidence that the cost of paying for both Apple and Disney subscriptions will still be a dollar less than Netflix's main plan, priced at $13 a month. But the intent to disrupt Netflix's huge lead in the streaming business cou... Full story

    Updated Aug 30, 2019

    K.B. Gressitt Special to the Village News T. Jefferson Parker settled in Fallbrook in 2000, and what better place for a New York Times bestselling author and three-time Edgar Award winner to burrow into the quietude needed for the complex plots and deeply human characters he creates.

  • 'Tenderly' hurts

    Elizabeth Youngman-Westphal, Special to The Village News|Updated Aug 27, 2019

    The best part about "Tenderly, the Rosemary Clooney Musical" is intermission. A long-time fan of Ms. Clooney's musical accomplishments, I was disappointed to watch her personal and professional life torn to shreds. The too long, over-dramatized history of Ms. Clooney's singing career was written by the acclaimed writing team of Janet Yates Vogt and Mark Freidman. No doubt, they were paid by the word - otherwise this show would have been a single-90-minute-one-act play.... Full story

The theme of The Mission is a mission to outer space, but Styx also had a mission July 26 when the band played at Pala Casino's Palomar Starlight Theater. That mission was to satisfy the audience, and Styx accomplished its mission. Styx performed 15 songs during their 90 minutes onstage, not including the snippet from Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody" keyboardist Lawrence Gowan played and sang after his keyboard solo...

    San Diego Repertory has a hot musical running until the 25th of August called "33 1/3 House of Dreams." It's rock and roll at its very best and performed primarily by students. Gold Star Recording Studio was successful for 33 1/3 years. A long run for any business.
