Reviews:
Howierd: Started Night Sky last week. Basic review is it’s way too long. If you stick to the whole sequence, the last episode is violent and plot twisty. Interesting concept. Looks primed for a sequel. Saw on Amazon Prime for free, possibly worth full price. Well acted, inconsistent writing.
Lisa: Went to PEERS dance. Star Trek theme (costumes, music) Starfleet Graduation Ball. Avalon Rising, along with Cat (who hasn’t been able to) performed. All had a good time.
Yochanan: Romeo & Juliet (SV Shakes) Good production. Couple of twists. Modern Country Club setting. Romeo is presented as Female (played by a Non-Binary actor). About 3 hours with the intermission. Really enjoyed it. Free, with a raffle. Worth more than full price.
ST:SNW has liked all episodes so far. Each is a stand-alone. Can range from serious to humorous.
Rumor of the Week: All the rumors are true.
