Top Stories for December 13th Publish Date: December 13th PRE-ROLL: SUGAR HILL ICE SKATING From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Saturday, December 13th and Happy Birthday to Ted Nugent I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by Gwinnett KIA Mall of Georgia. Suwanee recognizes Eagle Scout projects Suspect arrested after road rage incident leads to stabbing on I-85 in Gwinnett Peachtree Corners Town Center's movie theater is third major closure of 2025 Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on milk Break 1: THE STRAND HOLIDAY STORY 1: Suwanee recognizes Eagle Scout projects At November’s City Council meeting, Suwanee took a moment to shine a spotlight on three incredible Eagle Scouts who poured their time, energy, and heart into projects that made the community a little brighter. “Thank you to these young leaders for their creativity and dedication,” the city shared. Here’s what they accomplished: Jocelyn Carsley (Troop 5109) transformed the barn at White Street Park with a kids’ activity area and a colorful mural. Meredith Carsley (Troop 5109) built observation decks for better views at city events. Colin Kenney (Troop 608) revamped the landscaping around the “Mommy” sculpture at PlayTown Suwanee. Amazing work, all around! STORY 2: Suspect arrested after road rage incident leads to stabbing on I-85 in Gwinnett A man accused of stabbing another driver in a road rage clash last month has been arrested, Gwinnett County police announced. The incident happened on Nov. 13 along I-85 South. Peter Chai, the victim, told officers he got into a heated exchange with a white van. Things escalated fast. According to police, the van’s driver, Yoandry Rincon, got out, approached Chai’s window, and stabbed him in the chest. Chai fought back—grabbing a bat from his car—which sent Rincon running back to his van. Chai was hospitalized but has since recovered. Rincon? He’s now in Gwinnett County Jail, facing aggravated assault charges. STORY 3: Peachtree Corners Town Center's movie theater is third major closure of 2025 It’s been a tough year for Peachtree Corners Town Center, and now there’s more bad news to close out 2025—CMX Cinebistro has shut its doors. The theater, which opened in March 2019, quietly disappeared from the CMX website, though it was still being hyped on social media just a few months ago as the go-to spot for date nights and family outings. This marks the third big closure in six months. Lazy Dog left in July, blaming parking headaches, and Uncle Jack’s Meat House followed in August. For a six-year-old development, it’s starting to feel like a rough patch. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: Ingles Markets - DTL HOLIDAY STORY 4: Housing Matters: HUD pauses changes to housing grants after lawsuit The cost of living is crushing, and it’s forcing people into impossible situations—cramped hotel rooms, shelters, or worse, the streets. Here’s the latest on housing and homelessness: HUD’s Homeless Aid Shake-Up Hits Pause The Trump administration’s plan to cap grants for permanent housing and programs like those supporting transgender communities has been put on hold after a lawsuit. Critics say the changes would displace 170,000 people. HUD now promises a revised policy by January. Atlanta Food Bank’s Big Push With demand up 70%, the Atlanta Community Food Bank is racing to collect 10 million meals by year’s end. A $100,000 match doubles every donation. Housing Market Stalls New home listings dropped 1.7%—the sharpest decline in two years. Buyers and sellers are waiting, unsure of what 2026 will bring. STORY 5: Kim Peeples makes a lifelong impact on Brookwood’s theater family For Kim Peeples, music isn’t just a career—it’s her heartbeat. She retired from Brookwood High in 2019, but let’s be honest, she never really left. This year, she hit a milestone: her 100th musical production, “String,” which won the region one-act competition. Peeples’ journey with Brookwood started in the early ’80s, when she was fresh out of college and working under her middle school chorus teacher, Lori Ziecker. “Lori was everything,” Peeples said, her voice catching. “She passed in May, but her influence is everywhere.” Over the years, Peeples became a cornerstone of Brookwood’s theater and choral programs, working alongside the Lindahl family—first Ken and Patty, and now their daughter, Laura. And family is exactly what Brookwood has been to Peeples. From directing “Evita” in 1990 to the award-winning “1940s Radio Hour” in 1998, and more recent productions like “Ragtime” and “Bright Star,” her passion has left an indelible mark. We’ll be right back.

The new revival of the musical Ragtime, by Stephen Flaherty and Lynn Ahrens (book by Terrence McNally, based on the novel by E.L. Doctorow), is one of the big hits of the new Broadway season. Lincoln Center Theater has produced the latest rendition, and times have certainly changed since the musical's original Broadway production in 1998. The new revival makes the show's characters and issues even more relevant for our present day. Along with the fictional character Coalhouse Walker Jr. and the archetypal characters Father, Mother, and Younger Brother, the show features several celebrities and power players from turn-of-the-century New York. Anna Grace Barlow, who plays Broadway star Evelyn Nesbit, and Rodd Cyrus, who stars as iconic illusionist Harry Houdini, join The Gilded Gentleman for a behind-the-scenes talk about their characters and their experiences performing in the show. This episode was produced and edited by Kieran Gannon.

Send us a textThis week on Broadway Besties, we are flying back to Oz and diving headfirst into every magical, chaotic, heart-stopping moment of Wicked Part Two. Mark has seen it, Amy has not, which means we unpack the twists, the tears, the triumphs, and the tiny details you might have missed. Then we switch universes entirely and head to turn-of-the-century America as we dream-cast a full cinematic version of Ragtime. We pick the actors, the directors, and the aesthetics and decide once and for all whether Ragtime deserves the Hollywood treatment. It is drama, nostalgia, and musical theatre mayhem in its purest form.

Today, I'm thrilled to announce my interview with two-time Tony winner Brian Stokes Mitchell. Tune in to hear some of his wonderful stories, including why JELLY'S LAST JAM was the hardest show he's ever done, an out-of-body experience during RAGTIME, learning KING HEDLEY II in nine days, how he came to appreciate KISS ME, KATE, getting slapped by Marin Mazzie, auditioning for OH, KAY! and PORGY AND BESS simultaneously, making his Broadway debut with MAIL, going from the Belleville Dinner Theater to Broadway with MAN OF LA MANCHA, coming back to Broadway with WOMEN ON THE VERGE OF A NERVOUS BREAKDOWN, the pitfalls of adapting movies for the stage, how he got his first big job on TRAPPER JOHN, MD, starring in LOVE LIFE before and after the pandemic, researching the history of SHUFFLE ALONG, his vision for a revival of THE MUSIC MAN, covering Stephen Sondheim's work on his albums, workshopping HERE WE ARE, and so much more. Don't miss this in-depth conversation with a true Broadway legend.

I went back to one of my classic Broadway Drumming 101 conversations this week, and it reminded me why I started this series in the first place. Years ago I sat down with Rich Rosenzweig when he was holding the drum chair for the revival of ‘Company.' Now he's driving the bus for Ragtime at Lincoln Center, and revisiting this talk brought everything back. We got into the real work of subbing on Broadway, the pressure of matching the regular drummer's feel, and the quiet connection with the conductor that determines whether you get asked back.In the clip, Rich breaks down the truth every serious drummer needs to hear. Subbing isn't about chops or showing what you can do. It's about matching the show so well that the conductor can close their eyes and feel the same pulse, the same sound, the same flow they get from the regular drummer. They're not looking for surprises. They want stability. If you're not giving accuracy, presence, and attention to detail, they feel it immediately.Rich also talks about how conductors watch the monitor even when they say they don't. They're looking for someone who is locked in and communicating clearly. Plenty of great drummers have fallen short because they didn't prepare the book with real precision or didn't read the conductor the way the regular drummer does. Most people never hear that part of the job. Subbing is consistency, connection, and trust.Thanks for reading! This post is public so feel free to share it.This conversation is one of my favorites, and I'm bringing it back. Subscribe to Broadway Drumming 101 so you're notified when the re-release goes live. If you're trying to get into Broadway or looking to sharpen your subbing skills, this episode will show you what the job really demands.This Substack is reader-supported.

In this episode of Half Hour, Jeff and Richie take a close look at the 2025 Broadway revival of Ragtime at Lincoln Center Theater's Vivian Beaumont Theater, with Joshua Henry, Caissie Levy, Brandon Uranowitz, and Colin Donnell leading the cast. They compare Lear deBessonet's Broadway staging to the earlier New York City Center presentation, weighing the strength of the performances, the impact of a more pared-back production, and how the material lands with today's audiences. The conversation covers the score by Stephen Flaherty and Lynn Ahrens, Terrence McNally's book, design choices that support or undercut the storytelling, and what this revival might mean for the upcoming Tony Awards. Jeff and Richie also discuss how Ragtime's mix of fictional and historical figures speaks to contemporary questions about race, class, immigration, and the American dream.

Oscar-nominated actor Elizabeth McGovern (Downton Abbey, Ragtime) is perhaps best known for her role as Cora Crawley, Countess of Grantham on the acclaimed TV series “Downton Abbey.” Now, Elizabeth is in Canada with a new theatre production she wrote and stars in, “Ava: The Secret Conversations,” which sheds light on the life of Hollywood legend Ava Gardner. Elizabeth sits down with Tom Power to tell us the similarities between her life and Ava's, how celebrity culture has changed (and not changed) since the 1980s, and what it was like finally saying goodbye to “Downton Abbey” after 15 years.

This video is a conversation titled "The History of Sound with James M Errington" from the channel Conversations with Strangers.James M. Errington is the creator of the project Centuries of Sound, which compiles a mixtape for every year of recorded sound [00:39]. The interview covers his personal background, musical tastes, and a detailed history of recorded sound technology.Key Topics DiscussedThe History of Recorded SoundThe discussion provides a timeline of recording technology:• 1853 (Édouard-Léon Scott de Martinville): The very earliest known recording, which used a device to mark sound vibrations onto soot-covered paper. This device could not play back the sound, only capture a visual record of it [15:44].• Late 1870s (Thomas Edison): The invention of the phonograph, which was the first machine to both record and play back sound, initially using tin foil and later metallic soap cylinders. Edison originally intended it as a dictation device for businessmen [17:52].• Early 1900s: The shift from cylinders to discs (gramophones). This era saw the rise of Ragtime as a major musical genre [24:16].• Acoustic Recording (Pre-1926): Sound was physically captured using a gigantic brass horn that focused vibrations down to a needle, cutting groves into a wax disc [25:24].• Electrical Recording (Post-1926): The introduction of microphones and electrical recording systems led to a dramatic improvement in sound quality (capturing more bass and treble). The year 1927 is highlighted as an "amazing year" for recorded music, capturing diverse regional genres like folk, jazz, and blues for the first time [28:59].• Magnetic Tape: Technology found in Germany after WWII and popularized in the US by people like Bing Crosby [34:18]. Les Paul is noted as a pioneer in using magnetic tape for multitracking [36:33].• Modern Production: The conversation touches on influential producers like George Martin (The Beatles) [40:02] and Phil Spector (Wall of Sound) [41:06], leading to the current era of digital technology where almost anyone can create music [49:18].James M. Errington's Work• Centuries of Sound: The core project involves compiling a mixtape for every year of recorded sound, including music, news, and other audio from that year [00:54]. The mixes are now hosted on Mixcloud to ensure proper licensing and artist payment [50:55].• Musical Taste: James shares his eclectic musical tastes, which include:• Early 70s Fusion Jazz (his "ultimate sweet spot") [07:29].• His all-time favorite band, Soft Machine [07:45].• A preference for "weird pop music," citing Charlie XCX as a current favorite [13:51].• Other Projects: He also creates ambient experimental music under the name Buff Cuts [53:34].You can find his website here: https://centuriesofsound.com and you can watch the full video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O6sndFKb6jA

Judson and his husband celebrate their 10th wedding anniversary in Eureka Springs, Arkansas, while Brian and his family discover a free gallery show featuring original works by Basquiat, Haring, Koons, Mapplethorpe, Sherman, Warhol, and more. The two hosts each go without physical release for longer than usual and expound on the joys of refraining. Brian then experiences a moment of undeniable divine intervention, and Judson starts his new job. They enjoy a pocket-sized Hookup of the Week about the joys of being Daddy to a pocket-sized partner. Brian spends three nights at the theater seeing Ragtime, Dylan Mulvaney's solo show, The Least Problematic Woman in the World, and, of course, Brandon Kyle Goodman's Heaux Church off-Broadway at Ars Nova—where he was joined by Judson and several Dads and Daddies listeners. Brian then makes a proposal to any theater producers listening to bring this year's queer theater standouts to more audiences. Writer, actor, host, and sexual/mental wellness advocate Brandon Kyle Goodman then sits down with Brian to discuss how writing on Netflix's hit animated series Big Mouth put them on their mission to deshame sex by talking about it. They also cover Brandon's journey with their husband from monogamy to polyamory, how dating other people has benefited their primary relationship, being an educator of oral pleasure, how to make kindness cool within the queer community, and all about the past, present, and future of Heaux Church. The episode concludes with Brandon helping address a Go Ask Your Dad question from a listener frustrated by how their partner prioritizes a dom hookup over their relationship, and finally, with some words of guidance from Brandon on coming together during these difficult times.

20th_Century_Fox_Is_On_The_Air_38xxxx_-_Alexanders_Ragtime_Band

Full strength this week with a special feature from our London correspondent. This week was truly the week of Ragtime, as they have multiple announcements this week. We get caught up on the London Evita of it all, and Nick and Gavin recap their adventures.

This week on Sibling Rivalry, Bob breaks down musical theater vs. opera ticket sales, explains the plot of Ragtime, and debates whether Mamma Mia! and Cats are more iconic than Beetlejuice. Then, they get into OnlyFans. They ask if they'd ever pay for adult content, what visuals they actually respond to, and review Drag Race queens' OnlyFans accounts to decide if they're worth it. Monét reveals the circumstances that might push her to start one herself, they compare how many creators they follow, and ask: what are the signs that an OnlyFans is worth subscribing to?

What do the following styles of music have in common: Ragtime, New Wave, Dubstep, and Doo-wop? This group may seem quite divergent, but they all share a common characteristic: they are mostly types of music that no one plays much anymore. Then again, you could easily argue that these are simply sub-genres of larger categories like Jazz, Rock, Reggae and R&B, and live on in some form or another in the echoes of their sound within the broader contexts, such as they are, and here and there in all manner of newer sub-genres. And those broader contexts, those foundational genres, how are they holding up these days? Jazz has gone from ruling the airwaves, dance floors and record stores to being a mostly boutique, albeit diverse, corner of the American music map. Rock has long been declared dead, but soldiers on in bands both old and new. Reggae rose to international acclaim with Bob Marley but has not approached those heights following his untimely death. R&B may be the most robust of this small sample, with artists like The Weeknd and SZA amongst its current stars. Blues music has gone through sea changes of its own over the decades, and today, it is facing headwinds with younger audiences. As our guest Brooks Mason (known by his stage name Eddie 9V) puts it, younger music fans especially often think they will not like the blues because of its perceived predictability and reliance on old formulas. And while he is not wrong, he is also a prime example of how Blues music can garner new audiences with a new approach to the genre. Part of Eddie 9V's approach is to, as he put it, lead a band that is not really a Blues band anymore.

Mike Isaacson is the Artistic Director and Executive Producer of The Muny, the third person to hold this position in The Muny's 106 -year history. During his 14 seasons, he has produced 89 Muny shows, 37 new to The Muny stage. He is also a 9 Time Tony Award winning Broadway producer. After his first season at The Muny, The Riverfront Times wrote, “Under the leadership of executive producer Mike Isaacson the quality of Muny productions rose like the proverbial phoenix.” During his tenure, Isaacson has changed the look and feel of The Muny, overseeing a transformation in every aspect of production that culminated in 2019 with the arrival of the theatre's extraordinary James S. McDonnell stage, a state-of-the art stage house that includes revolutionary LED technology, automated sets, and a host of other innovations. In 2016, The Muny embarked on an unprecedented $100 million capital campaign, raising within 5 years a record amount for any theater in the U.S. During the COVID lock-down summer of 2020, Mike produced and created The Muny 2020 Variety Hour, five live online shows that reached a worldwide audience of more than 400,000. For the summer of 2021, The Muny was one of two theaters in the U.S. to reopen, and produced five full productions, receiving acclaim for their artistry and their presence. The 2022 season's productions received 21 nominations from the St. Louis Theatre Critics Circle, more than any other theater in St. Louis. In 2023, The Muny bested its record with 26 nominations, and for it's 2024 season, The Muny received a record 30 nominations – a record for The Muny and for the Theatre Critics Circle. During his time, The Muny's education and outreach programs have grown in number, and their artistic endeavors now incorporate all aspects of theater making – production, performance and administration. The Muny kids and teens are now recognized nationally for their excellence, inspiring a national program where teens from throughout the U.S. audition annually come to St. Louis to be a part of a Muny production. For 27 years, with his partner Kristin Caskey, Mike has produced more than 40 Broadway musicals and plays, national tours, off-Broadway plays, and London productions. This Spring on Broadway, they are producing Jason Robert Brown's The Last Five Years, co-starring Nick Jonas and Adrienne Warren. In 2023, they produced the highly acclaimed Broadway revival of Parade, starring Ben Platt and Micaela Diamond, now on a national tour. Parade also received “Best Revival of a Musical” as well as “Best Musical Revival” from both The Drama Desk and The Outer Critics Circle. In 2022, they produced Neil Simon's Plaza Suite starring Matthew Broderick and Sarah Jessica Parker, which subsequently had a record-breaking run at London's Savoy Theater. Other recent Broadway productions include David Byrne's American Utopia, for which they received a special 2021 Tony Award. It also became a multi-Emmy Award nominated film by Spike Lee for HBO, for which he also served as an executive producer. In 2015, he received the Tony® award for “Best Musical” for the ground-breaking Fun Home. Other producing highlights include Dolls House, Part 2, The Humans (2016 Tony® Award, Best Play); Bring It On The Musical (2013 Tony® nomination for Best Musical); Red (2010 Tony® Award, Best Play); Legally Blonde the Musical (2011 Olivier Award, Best Musical); Thoroughly Modern Millie (2002 Tony® Award, Best Musical); You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown; If/Then; The Seagull; Burn This, Caroline, or Change; One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest starring Gary Sinise, and Death of a Salesman (1999 Tony® Award).

Encore! Encore! - This summer we're revisiting some of our favorite episodes. Contining with some more rootin tootin escapades in the Wild West, lets take another look at two films rich some of the most ledgendary filmmaker's and talent to grace the genre, Stagecoach (1939) and Ragtime (1981)! A classic, beloved Western from 1939 - the watershed greatest year of cinema almost didn't happen. At the time, everyone thought the Western was dead, except John Ford – he was right, they were wrong.  The other film featured one of the greatest acting legends of Hollywood in his last and rivetting film role in 1981 as a tyrannical turn of the century police commissioner  – this actor starred in his first hit role in films in 1939 in a classic gangster drama – any ideas?! …while not a commissioner my  producer extraordinaire and wingman,  actor and cinephile, John, Schwab polices this show with j'nai sais quoi so... Let's go to the movies! To find out more about this and past episodes' movies, including trivia and other fun facts, visit the official Cinema Sounds & Secrets website.
