(WEST ORANGE, NJ) -- Launching Luna Stage's 2025-2026 season with a five-week run, the two-time Off-Broadway hit Mrs. Stern Wanders the Prussian State Library returns to Luna from October 3rd to November 9, 2025. Jenny Lyn Bader's play, praised by John McWhorter in the New York Times as "a lesson on perceiving humanity and even dignity in all people under even the toughest of conditions," was called of the Best Dramas of the Year by This Week in New York, selected as one of Cititour's Hot 5 Off-Broadway Shows, and named to Theaterscene's 2024 10 Best List.
(JACKSON, NJ) -- Six Flags Entertainment Corporation, the world's largest regional theme park company and North America’s Halloween leader, is raising the stakes this spooky season. On October 1, 2025, Six Flags introduced Come Out and Play, an original, nearly 8-minute horror short created by acclaimed genre filmmakers. The film expands the fear factor of Halloween by offering fans a chilling taste of the nightmares waiting at participating Six Flags parks — including Dorney Park's HAUNT and Six Flags Great Adventure's Fright Fest presented by SNICKERS®, both already underway.
A winner of several Makin Waves and other awards, including Best Music Video at the recent Mesa International Film Festival, Jersey Shore singer-songwriter-producer and multi-instrumentalist Arlan Feiles has more than lived up to the potential Rock and Roll Hall of Fame producer Tom Dowd saw in him as he helmed what was intended to be his major label debut for Island Records. Instead, Arlan has produced and released six critically acclaimed albums on his own notpop records, including his latest and most challenging LP, "Diaspora," a chronicle of the hardships the Jewish community has had to endure. Like many of its predecessors, "Diaspora" landed on the Euro Americana Charts, reaching No. 5. That industry-oriented chart has been a boon to Arlan's career overseas, as has Netherlands-based booking agent Lucky Dice Music, which annually lands him shows also in Belgium and Germany, where the Holocaust-reflective "Diaspora" has been an inspiration.
There is an idea within the current political sphere, mostly among the right-wing, that we shouldn’t talk about slavery. This idea is supported by such talking points as “we don’t want white kids to feel bad for being white” or “this only matters to black people". For example, the French government had, a few decades ago, created the slogan, “We were all born in 1848”, the year they abolished slavery. To people like Emmanuel Gordien, it implied that slavery never existed. However, the horrors of the past will not stay silent. Safoi Babana-Hampton’s Chœurs Atlantiques | Tales from the Atlantic Beyond is a tribute to the victims of slavery that, in the words of Gordien, “Find all our ancestors, understand all their history… and finally, to honor them”.
You're on edge. Why wouldn't you be? Masked police are rounding up people on the streets of American cities. Those detained are shipped to private detention centers that exist in a blank zone beyond judicial oversight or regional supervision. This weekend, The Guardian described a CoreCivic prison in the California desert as hell on earth: crowded, unsanitary conditions, dirty water, torture, unconscious inmates denied medication. Shirsho Dashgupta of the Miami Herald reported that more than two-thirds of the men incarcerated in Alligator Alcatraz cannot presently be accounted for. Shortly after delivering a speech that echoed Joseph Goebbels's rhetoric, Stephen Miller celebrated NSPM-7, a White House directive that criminalizes dissent and empowers federal investigators to lay a dragnet and start the engine. In this febrile environment the President has announced his intention to send the army — the United States armed forces — to Portland, Oregon, treating it as a rebellious province that needs to be subdued.

Frank Hanavan's Hoboken is wet. In his streetscapes, surfaces glisten. The sky is rarely glowering, but it does seem full; ready to have something to say, or wrapping up something that it is busy saying. The canopy of foliage that hangs over the streetcorners feels saturated with moisture. Even the shadows on the sidewalk are puddle blue. Businesses have their umbrellas open. A few people do, too.
