Seven Angels Is Offering Premiere Engagement of âChildâs Christmasâ

WATERBURY â The premier engagement of the Christmas show A Childâs Christmas in Wales arrives on the Seven Angeles Theater stage this month. Starring Leif Garrett, the 1970s icon, with the world-renown, Tony Award-winning National Theatre of the Deaf, A Childâs Christmas in Wales is a nostalgic journey back in time through the eyes of poet Dylan Thomas. The new adaptation of the classic childrenâs story is performed in both American Sign Language and spoken word.

The family show will feature the performing talents of the incomparable Leif Garrett in his first major live theatre engagement. Mr Garrett is known for his musical talents and his many film and television roles ranging from The Outsiders and The Odd Couple to Family and a biographical VH-1 Behind The Music special.

Mr Garrett and the National Theatre of the Deafâs professional acting company will perform in the unique piece that has been described as a unique art-form and âpoetry for the eyes and heart.â Showtimes are Thursday, December 14, at 7 pm; Friday, December 15, at 7 pm; Saturday, December 16, at 2 and 7 pm; and Sunday, December 17, at 2 and 7 pm. Tickets for adults are $25, and for students, $15.

Seven Angels Theatre is in Hamilton Park on Plank Road. For tickets and more information, call the box office at 757-4676.

There are many considerations as it relates to the development of the Castle Hill property as noted. I am supportive of the proposal and to approval process as it is sensitive to concerns being raised. The proposal provides another housing and lifestyle option for long time residents and newcomers with great accessibility to town. The developer is a long time resident with a solid reputation and the best interest of town at heart. It is not wise to make gross assumptions but I would think it would be a net positive (will attract empty nesters) to the tax base versus incremental town costs required. Net positive tax base growth supports continued investment in our great school system. Working in partnership with historical groups, bike and trails, the borough and others could actually add another great part of our amazing town.

Proposed Castle Hill Development Is Wrong For Newtown

EDITOR'S NOTE: We do not publish everything that goes into print on our website. We never have. It's a longstanding policy that our print subscribers benefit by being able to read every feature, article, press release, etc, and see every advertisement, thanks to their paid subscriptions. Many stories are posted a few days after each print edition is published but some are never shared online. The Board of Education vacancy created by a resignation on February 20, which was filled on March 19, was covered in the March 22, 2024 print edition. Sorry you missed those stories.

Unhappy With Meeting Coverage

I am on the Newtown Bike and Trail Committee and we have been promoting and maintaining this trail for years. It literally goes through the middle of 20/60 Castle Hill Rd., and was added to the register of historic places around 2003: https://npgallery.nps.gov/AssetDetail/NRIS/02001679 . That said, I think nearby development and trail preservation could be compatible, depending on the plan.

Its not just this meeting - its pretty much all town meetings. When was the last time you saw an article on the Bee's website regarding P&Z or BOE? Did you know that a BOE member resigned in January and a new one was appointed? These used to be featured articles on the Bee website after they went into the print edition. Unfortunately, things have changed a lot at the Bee since Mr. Voket left.

I have lived in Newtown for over 60 years and this is the first I have ever heard of the Rochambeau Trail. When I checked with the National Park Service and our state only Nationally Historic Site the official records of the Rochambeau Trail administrated by NPS does not travel through this property. If you are arguing it is "Near" the trail then where was the outrage when Big Y was built? The new development on 6 and 25 or even the Starbucks.
