Peninsula Players Theatre Announces 91st Season || June 16 through October 18, 2026

**** Highly Recommended  Marti Lyons, Remy Bumppo’s Artistic Director, had a vision – a new look at Shakespeare’s most chauvinistic play. Her new adaptation of "The Taming of the Shrew," now on stage at the Court Theatre, brings a modern, tongue-in-cheek twist to an old story. In addition to the outstanding cast of ten, I loved the staging, the costumes, the set – and the six silent shrews! 4 BIG Spotlights

At approximately 4:50 a.m. today, Trooper Jaylen Holt-Terry was traveling eastbound on 93rd Avenue in Crown Point. As he proceeded through the intersection at Monroe Street, a 2017 Cadillac XT5 lost control, slid through the intersection, and struck the passenger side of his fully marked police Charger.

Every winter, thousands of Hoosiers safely enjoy fishing, skating, hiking, or just sliding around on frozen ponds and lakes. And every year, people drown after falling through ice.

***RECOMMENDED***  Mention the name "Salieri" and most people will instantly think of his alleged rivalry with a much younger composer -- Mozart -- and his supposed all-consuming jealousy of the boy genius' prodigious output. But Italian composer Antonio Salieri (1750-1825) was already a highly-successful composer and mentor by the time that Mozart arrived at the royal court in Vienna. In fact, Salieri composed more than 35 operatic works during his lifetime. Thanks to the highly resourceful folks at Chicago Opera Theater, especially General Director Lawrence Edelson, local opera lovers should be thrilled to have the opportunity to separate the myth from the man and actually get to hear his glorious music firsthand. In its Chicago premiere, Salieri's "Falstaff" delights the curious nearly 227 years after it was created. 3 SPOTLIGHTS
