From MPR News, Art Hounds are members of the Minnesota arts community who look beyond their own work to highlight what's exciting in local art. Their recommendations are lightly edited from the audio heard in the player above. Want to be an Art Hound? Submit here.Meander through artists' studios along the upper Minnesota River ValleyMusician Clark Machtemes of Waconia recommends the Meander Art Crawl, a three-day, self-guided tour of artists' studios across western Minnesota. This year's event features 42 artists in towns including Ortonville, Appleton, Madison, Milan, Dawson, Montevideo, Granite Falls and Canby.The Meander runs:Friday: 12 – 6 p.m.Saturday: 9 a.m. – 6 p.m.Sunday: 9 a.m. – 4 p.m.Machtemes notes that several towns will also host evening musical performances. (Find a map here.)The quiet beauty of the everydayMinneapolis painter Ken Johnson recommends Justin Terlecki's solo show, “Hidden Place,” on view at Groveland Gallery in Minneapolis through Oct. 11.Ken says: It's a series of nine paintings in oil. They're scenes reproduced from photographs and from his remembered events of places and friends: sleeping, exploring the outdoors, eating — all relatable. He's creating a living history through these subtle artworks. His oils are in muted blues and greens. It's best seen in person because he uses these small brushes, and you can actually see these little brush strokes.— Ken JohnsonKick-start spooky season with Theatre 55's production of ‘Sweeney Todd'St. Paul's Heather Foxx says she first discovered Theatre 55 — a Twin Cities theater company featuring actors aged 55 and older — through Art Hounds. After appearing in some of their past productions, she plans to be in the audience for their fall show, “Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street.”Heather says: This fall, they're kicking off the spooky Halloween season with “Sweeney Todd,” filled with beautiful, eerie, haunting melodies, with actors and actresses of 55 and older.— Heather Foxx

Das Wichtigste und Schönste am Musical ist für den Theaterleiter das Fühlen und Miterleben. Obwohl er aus der Opernwelt kommt und Opernregie studiert hat, gefällt ihm nach mehreren Jahren am Festspielhaus das Musical besser als die Oper. Im Podcast verrät er, warum. Eines der berührendsten Musicals ist für ihn das Stück Ludwig². In Füssen schrieb er Theatergeschichte, als er mit einer Crowdfunding-Aktion das Werk wieder auf die Bühne brachte. 200.000 Musicalfans besuchen jährlich das Festspielhaus, das direkt gegenüber von Schloss Neuschwanstein am Ufer des Forggensees liegt. Damit hat es in der Musicalwelt Deutschlands eine einmalige Lage fernab der Hektik der Großstadt. Benjamin Sahler erinnert sich noch genau, wie er Füssen das erste Mal besuchte und das erste Mal das Märchenschloss König Ludwigs sah. Sein Ansatz ist, den Leute mit seinen Musicals eine Freude zu machen und sie zu inspirieren. Aber genauso möchte er am Festspielhaus zeigen, dass Musical nicht nur Unterhaltung ist, sondern ebenso Inhalte transportieren kann. Auch ernsthafte Themen finden ihren Platz in dem Genre. Die Resonanz gibt ihm Recht: Mit dem Musical Die weiße Rose über die Widerstandsgruppe gegen die Nationalsozialisten ist das Festspielhaus gleich mehrmals für den Deutschen Musical Theater Preis nominiert.

Dolly Parton BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Dolly Parton has been front and center in both headlines and hearts over the past week, even as she balanced personal moments and a packed professional schedule. According to Parade, Dolly sat down with Reba McEntire for a warmly candid TalkShopLive interview released September 25, where she reminisced with poignant humor about her late husband Carl Dean, who passed away six months ago. Dolly recalled a rare moment when Carl, who famously shunned the spotlight throughout their six-decade marriage, joined her for an impromptu performance at the Kentucky State Fair. She described the memory as “so out of character for him” and laughed about how the prank unraveled onstage—with Dolly even jokingly telling security she didn't know him, until her road manager intervened.A major headline from AOL announced Dolly's Las Vegas return later this year: she's set for six shows at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace in December, marking her first extended residency there in 32 years. “To say I'm excited would be an understatement,” Dolly said in her statement, making clear her enthusiasm for reconnecting with fans in Vegas. The concerts, appropriately titled “Dolly: Live in Las Vegas,” promise seven decades of hits and a setlist fans have dreamt about, along with VIP packages for some up-close Dolly moments. This run coincides with the National Finals Rodeo, turning Vegas into a true Parton-palooza.Meanwhile, Dolly has not just been performing—she's been the subject of a musical about her life, “Dolly: A True Original Musical,” which opened in Nashville in January and is reportedly eyeing Broadway, according to Playbill and AOL. For fans of orchestral music, her multimedia production “Threads: My Songs in Symphony” continues its national tour, bringing Dolly's classics to the concert stage with a symphonic twist—in fact, she headlined in Indianapolis on September 20.The week was not without health-related speculations. People and IMDb reported that Dolly missed the highly anticipated announcement for Dollywood's newest ride due to kidney stone recovery, causing a ripple of concern among fans. Dolly addressed her absence cheerfully in a video message, promising she was with everyone “in spirit” and expected to be back in action soon.Book lovers, mark November 11 on your calendar. “Star of the Show: My Life on Stage”—Dolly's third photographic memoir—drops soon. Reba McEntire called Dolly “her hero” during their livestreamed chat, raving about Dolly's generosity, wit, and authenticity. The pair traded decades of stories, reinforcing their mutual admiration in a conversation that felt like a masterclass on both friendship and show business.Social media buzz has been lively, too. Dolly's enduring impact was referenced in a viral tweet picked up by HuffPost Women, joking about how “it's getting harder and harder to tumble out of bed, stumble into my kitchen to pour a cup of ambition every day,” a playful nod to her “9 to 5” lyrics that perfectly captures her crossover into everyday pop culture.So whether she's sparking Vegas fever, sharing deeply personal stories, celebrating her own journey in new artistic ways, or trending in meme form, Dolly Parton remains a force whose every move resonates far beyond country music. Onward with rhinestones, resilience, and remarkable grace—this week's Dolly headlines are, as always, pure gold.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Reposted from Still Slaying: A Buffy-verse podcast which you can find at Still Slaying: a Buffy-verse podcast | Podcastica. Fun, in-depth talk about great TV. “That's the funny thing about hope. Nobody else gets to decide if you feel it. That choice belongs to you.” Penny, Kara and Karen celebrate all things HUNTR/X, talking through the three main characters, the allure of the Saja Boys, the powerful draw of the music, the fun choreography, finding community through shared fandom, inspiring creativity in fans, the deeper meanings hidden behind the bright colors and banging tunes and the power of love in original content. The discussion touches on neurodivergence, generational trauma, the value of a layered film that families can watch and enjoy together (co-viewing), cultural appropriation, K-pop and K-pop culture, Motown and factory music systems, soft power, K-Dramas, voice acting, gender in fandoms, bad boy appeal, shame, toxic fandom, and the intersection of art and commerce.          Next time we'll be talking about Buffy, Season 4, Episode 14, “Goodbye, Iowa.” Keep Slaying!

Dolly Parton BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Dolly Parton has been everywhere this week with headlines that touch nearly every facet of her career and personal life. Parade and AOL report that Dolly just publicly mourned the loss of her longtime friend and fellow country legend Jeannie Seely, who died at 85 after battling health complications. Dolly took to Instagram with a heartfelt tribute recalling decades of laughs and tears together and called Seely “one of my dearest friends,” showing her enduring humanity and influence in the country music community.In Nashville, Dolly stole the show at the grand opening of the Country Music Hall of Fame's “Journey of a Seeker” exhibit, where she arrived in a bright, ultra-glamorous all-pink ensemble, rhinestones and butterflies included, to unveil her story for the public. This museum exhibit will run through September 2026, celebrating her life, sound, and the inspiration she continues to provide through generations. During the opening, Alison Krauss & Union Station performed Dolly's classic hits on stage, further cementing her formative influence on American culture, as reported by Parade.But she is not just a museum piece—her original Broadway-bound musical, “DOLLY: A True Original Musical,” wrapped its world premiere run at Belmont University's Fisher Center at the end of August. The show extended its performance schedule by 16 dates, bringing in nearly 78,000 attendees. Dolly personally thanked the cast and crew and signaled that the musical's next iteration may be Broadway itself, according to Fox Nashville.On the music front, she made fresh waves by teaming up with the Zac Brown Band for the new single “Butterfly.” MusicRow raved about the duet, calling it “thrilling” and “essential listening,” and country radio stations are already treating the collaboration as a big deal.Parton continues her philanthropic efforts, with features in outlets like Borgen Magazine highlighting her Imagination Library and her ongoing fight against poverty and for children's literacy worldwide. Discussions of her impact are circulating once again, amplifying her legacy beyond entertainment.Social media has been abuzz not only with her public memorials and exhibit photos but also with condolences from millions of fans and colleagues, admiration for her recent interviews, and excitement about her continued advocacy and business ventures. There have been speculative whispers on fan pages and podcasts about her potential to step back from music to focus on charity and legacy projects—these are largely unconfirmed, but her public comments about prioritizing impact over fame have fueled them.In short, Dolly Parton is proving, at 79, that her relevance is nowhere near fading—her story, her generosity, and her ability to headline major news are as vibrant as her wardrobe this week.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

We also look at This Month in Peanuts History, a Random Strip of the Month courtesy of author Andrew Farago, and say goodbye to one of our favorite podcast segments as we check out our final "Peanuts by Schulz" episode.  Thanks to Kevin McLeod at Incompetech.com for creative commons use of his songs "Mining by Moonlight", "Bass Walker", and "Hidden Agenda".  Thanks to Sean Courtney for the "This Month in Peanuts History" theme.

Author Veeda Bybee discusses her new cookbook, A Few of My Favorite Things: Recipes Inspired by Family-Friendly Musicals. Once upon a time, Veeda Bybee was a food blogger. But as family and other commitments grew, maintaining the blog became too much work, and she eventually gave it up. This cookbook marks a return to writing about food and cooking, and she admits that it is a dream come true. During the pandemic, Veeda and her family began enjoying Family Musical Fridays, during which they watched a musical together, and Veeda prepared a recipe mentioned in the movie or inspired by the relevant time period or setting. By doing this, she found she was able to give her kids a good reason to try new foods. Family Musical Fridays were a big hit with her family, and they inspired her to create a cookbook featuring her family's favorite recipes and musicals.
