Harris Theater Presents the World Premiere of Emancipation by Adrian Dunn Featuring The Adrian Dunn Singers and Rize Orchestra | April 29th

**** Highly Recommended **** "Six", a glitzy pop-rock concert musical starring the six wives of Henry VIII, has been on my personal list of top ten musicals since I saw it at Chicago Shakespeare Theater in 2019.  That cast has gone to Broadway, but there’s a new group of queens in town – and they’re fabulous!  I loved this new so much that I downloaded the soundtrack – and bought tickets to see it again!  How’s that for a recommendation?  I’m telling you, get your tickets today!  4 BIG Spotlights

It was fun and delightful!  This little neighborhood theater with only seating capacity of 100+ put on a “downtown performance” of a musical called "Something’s Afoot"  

Governor Eric J. Holcomb has proclaimed the week of April 10-16 as Public Safety Telecommunicator Week in Indiana.
