Album Review: “We’re All Right” by Shin High Foxes

The Shin High Foxes are a local indie/rock band with punk influences that help them create a unique blend of music only seen in Shippensburg, Pa., and the surrounding areas. “We’re All Alright,” the band’s first EP (extended play) will be releasing at the end of May, but we snagged an advanced copy to give you a sneak peak. The album starts off with a musical prelude, which I found a bit boring, not knowing what to expect.

Act V puts on An Hour with Shakespeare

Many are at least a little intimidated by the works of William Shakespeare. Shippensburg University students and ACT V directors Robert “BJ” Hile and James “Jimmy” Wright may have found the ideal solution to make these timeless works more accessible. In fact, they may have underestimated their success, as Wednesday’s audience continued to swell and exceed the number of available seats, creating a scramble to locate and provide additional chairs more than once. Wright, Hiles and SU’s student theater group ACT V, presented six bite-sized pieces of Shakespeare’s plays in their production of “An Hour with William Shakespeare.” Performances were held in Henderson gymnasium on April 16 and 17.
