The snowstorm that settled over Northwest Indiana during Thanksgiving weekend created challenging travel conditions and a high volume of calls for Lowell District troopers. Between Saturday at 10:00 a.m. and Sunday at 10:00 a.m., troopers handled a significant number of weather-related incidents across the region.
For theater fans, the best way to usher in the holiday season is to attend The Goodman Theatre's annual production of "A Christmas Carol."
**** Highly Recommended Drury Lane Theatre’s new production of "Sister Act," one of my favorite musicals, is terrific. Drury Lane productions always include talented actors, beautiful costumes and sets, and really, really good, dancing-in-your-seat music; "Sister Act" fits that criteria perfectly. Kudos to Director E. Faye Butler for ‘hitting it out of the park’! 4 BIG Spotlights
