Hale’s THE NUTTY PROFESSOR brings the laughs
SANDY — As a theatre critic and patron, it’s been interesting to watch Hale Center Theatre in Sandy this year. With their large stages and loyal patrons, it’s fascinating to see them have a season with 4 local, even national premieres with the last coming up this Fall with the US premiere of The Magician’s Elephant. It takes guts to try out new material and challenge audiences and talent with something other than the same safe shows we see time and again. That said, I know I’ve been more forgiving on these shows than many of my friends, and admit they have all been mixed bags. On one hand, this is how most new shows being workshopped before Broadway are. On the other hand, those paying the big Hale prices understandably expect a certain level of finish and quality to what they are seeing. Anyway, this long-winded introduction is to add context when I say the new regional premiere at Hale, The Nutty Professor, is a lot of fun and may win over those who haven’t been happy with the premieres so far this season.

Magna invests its small-town charm into its annual 4th of July 5K race
Every year Joe Hastings runs the Magna 4th of July 5K dressed head to toe in the stars and stripes. To him, it’s simple. Hastings grew up in Magna and has been running for as long as he can remember. His dad used to run this race when it first got started in the 80s. It was a pretty small event for a while but “has gotten really, really popular within the last six, seven, years. Across the whole valley, across the whole state,” he said.
