The Sound of Music fills Albert College
Classic musical and movie, The Sound of Music, seemed like the perfect fit for this year’s production at Albert College, said director Leslie Austin. “I chose this show this year because we had an exceptionally large amount of really strong female singers at our school, and so we thought this was the perfect year to do it to showcase all of their talents,” she said.

Night Kitchen Too shows off local talent
Musical variety show, Night Kitchen Too, welcomed a full house in from the cold Saturday evening. Organizer and well-known local music man Joe Callahan said this is the event’s fourth year running. “It’s to have a mix of musicians come together and entertain an audience that is appreciative. But then have a range of experiences I guess would be the way I would characterize it. Like, you saw a family tonight who had never performed in public before. And then you saw a number o
