Jam Productions regularly schedules a holiday-themed production for its Broadway at the Embassy series this time Yof year, making for yet another Fort Wayne Christmastime tradition alongside the Festival of Trees, The Nutcracker, Night of Lights, the Philharmonic’s Holiday Pops and many, many others. There are many things Fort Wayne does well, and celebrat- Wednesday, Dec. 13 • 7:30pm • $12-$25 ing the holidays is one of them. Michele DeVinney previews the tale of acceptance and inclusion on page 4. THE BRILLIANCE Also featured this week are Christian singer-songwriter Laura Story and rising coun- try music stars Parmalee (by Deborah Kennedy and Evan Gillespie, respectively) on page 5. Both are good reads and should be great shows for fans. Then there’s the Bulldogs, formerly Spike and the Bulldogs, who are carrying on the tradition of spreading oldies rock n’ roll far and wide long after Spike (Val Assay) has departed for warmer climes. SATURDAY, DECEMBER 16 Finally, we’ve got all kinds of community theater coverage in this week’s issue: Christopher Murphy’s Director’s Notes for Fort Wayne Youtheatre’s production of A PARMALEE Charlie Brown Christmas; Kevin Smith’s review of IPFW’s Pride and Prejudice; and WSG KASEY TYNDALL Steve Lively’s review of First Presbyterian Theater’s unique take on Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol. FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 23 There’s lots to read, and a whole lot more to see and do before 2017 wraps up, so we encourage you to get to it (and remember to tell ’em all that whatzup sent you).
