Goshen Community Theatre presents "Into the Woods"
Goshen Community Theatre members join Bill Boyer on KNEB's News Extra program Monday morning to talk about their upcoming project.
Into the Woods is a musical with music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim and book by James Lapine. It debuted in San Diego at the Old Globe Theatre in 1986, and premiered on Broadway in 1987. Bernadette Peters' performance as the Witch and Joanna Gleason's portrayal of the Baker's Wife brought acclaim to the production during its original Broadway run. Into the Woods won several Tony Awards, including Best Score, Best Book, and Best Actress in a Musical (Joanna Gleason), in a year dominated by The Phantom of the Opera.
The musical has been produced many times, with a 1988 US national tour, a 1990 West End production, a 1991 television production, a 1997 tenth anniversary concert, a 2002 Broadway revival, a 2010 London revival[1] and in 2012 as part of New York City's outdoor Shakespeare in the Park series. The musical intertwines the plots of several Brothers Grimm fairy tales and follows them to explore the consequences of the characters' wishes and quests. The main characters are taken from "Little Red Riding Hood", "Jack and the Beanstalk", "Rapunzel", and "Cinderella", as well as several others. The musical is tied together by an original story involving a baker and his wife and their quest to begin a family, and their interaction with a Witch and her curse on them.
Opening night is Thursday, March 14th at 7 p.m. with a reception following. Advance tickets available at Pinnacle Bank, Vandel Drug or EWC Community Outreach/Guernsey OR purchase tickets at the door prior to the show.

United Way of Western Nebraska exceeds annual goal
The United Way of Western Nebraska just completed a very successful 2012-2013 campaign. The goal for the campaign was $360,000 and they ended up raising $429,543!
Executive Director Steph Black and campaign co-chair Krista Sarchet were guests on KNEB's News Extra program Monday morning to talk about the success of the campaign. Katie Camacho, the other campaign co-chair was unable to be here Monday morning.
The theme for the year was "Teaming up for a Better Tomorrow" and their success is attributed to an amazing community effort. They thanked each person who was part of their team this year, whether they bought a duck in the duck race, donated school supplies to the "Stuff the Bus" project, played golf in their tournament, made a monetary donation, or donated time as a volunteer.
They credited wonderful volunteers who helped promote United Way, 2 hard working campaign co-chairs, 18 loaned executives from local businesses, 17 special events committee members, 26 board members and representatives from 20 agencies that United Way helps fund.
They also had the support of 22 amazing Corporate Pacesetter businesses and their employees. The businesses help raise money for United Way by allowing employees the option to give through payroll deductions, do in-house fundraisers and give corporate donations.
