âQueer Eyeâ Rescheduled

DANBURY â Due to the snowstorm that came into the area during the first weekend of December, The Connecticut Gay Menâs Chorus (CGMC) has rescheduled its Danbury presentation of its 2003 holiday show.

âQueer Eye For The Magi,â which was originally to be presented on December 6, has been rescheduled for Friday, December 19. The performance will be at 8 pm in Western CT State Universityâs White Hall, 181 White Street (on the universityâs main campus).

Tickets for the original date will be honored, and seats are still available. Ticket prices are $25 and $30.

This yearâs holiday performance by CT Gay Menâs Chorus offers traditional holiday harmony and madcap yuletide comedy âjoining together on a journey to a surprising makeover.â

In addition to traditional carols in sparkling new arrangements the show features the characters from Bravoâs runaway hit Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, and sends them on an imaginary Christmas Eve journey to help some contemporary fashion-challenged magi.

âItâs part Christmas story, part Wizard of Oz, and all fun,â says CGMC music director Winston Clark. âAlong the way they run into a host of modern day icons in need of some serious making over. Santa and his reindeer will never be the same, and neither will Martha Stewart.â

âQueer Eye For The Magiâ will also be performed on Saturday, December 20, at The Bushnellâs Belding Theater, 166 Capitol Avenue in Hartford, at 3 and 8 pm.

Call 800-644-2462 for additional information. Tickets will be available at the door.

Congratulations on your nomination. In your announcement, you mentioned that Newtown faces real pressures, including “traffic patterns that make everyday life more stressful.” One growing concern for many residents and business owners is the repeated traffic disruption on Main Street caused by large-scale protests and rallies at the flagpole — held without a unified permitting process. Given that Main Street is a state road with a history of serious traffic and pedestrian safety issues, how would you, as First Selectman, approach the impact of these gatherings on traffic flow, public safety, and local businesses? I ask this with sincere interest in understanding how your commitment to “thoughtful planning” and “unity of action” would apply to this very real and recurring issue.

Democrats To Run Walczak For First Selectman

I appreciate Ryan’s thoughtful and grounded perspective on the need for a consistent, transparent, and lawful permitting process for large public events in Newtown. His approach reflects common sense within the framework of the law, balancing public safety, free expression, and fiscal responsibility—exactly what we should expect from our elected officials. In contrast, I was struck by Bruce Walczak’s comment suggesting that informal and "extensive discussion" are the preferred solutions to complex public issues. While there is certainly value in dialogue, the idea that decision-making should replace the thoughtful legislative process is troubling—especially coming from someone running for First Selectman.

Says ‘No’ Vote Sidestepped Due Diligence

I am grateful to The Democratic Town committee. I can vouch for the careful consideration they took in selecting our candidates. I appreciate their confidence in my managing skills to address the many issue facing Newtown. Ill be conducting listening tours over the next few months to gain a deeper understanding of my Newtown neighbors concerns and will be ready to address then day one.

There has been a rash of dog attacks, at least three that I know about on the sidewalks in town. Owners of pets need to be more attentive and respectful of their neighbors. Aggressive dogs need to be watched carefully to protect all. This is a serious issue and should be addresses not swept under a rug.

We Need A First Selectman Who Cares

I attended the meeting, and the results were reached after extensive discussion. Thats why its important to attend these high profile meeting, you see the facts yourself, As Alex, in the following letter, said the solution is not always more rules and legislation. Speaking to each other often solves issue a lot quicker with more flexibility.
