The Ivoryton Playhouse has announced its 2025 season, and as with this year’s season, there is a show in it with a subject of great local interest. This year it was a musical based on the film “Mystic Pizza.” In 2025, it’s “Tea at Five,” playwright Matthew Lombardo ’s biographical play about Katharine Hepburn. Not only did Hepburn live most of her life in Connecticut when not in Hollywood, she performed in two shows at the Ivoryton Playhouse in 1931 at the beginning of her career. “Tea at Five” finds Hepburn in her Old Saybrook home talking about her career. The 2025 Ivoryton season begins April 3-27 with “Hank Williams: Lost Highway,” based on the life and music of the pioneering country and western singer who died in 1953. The musical includes a live band onstage whose musicians also play characters in the show. Songs include such well-known Williams hits as “Jambalaya,” “Hey Good Looking,” “Move It On Over” and “I’m So Lonesome I Could Cry” and well as lesser-known tunes. “Tea at Five” follows May 15 through June 8. The play had its world premiere at Hartford Stage in 2002. Like Hepburn, Lombardo was born in Hartford. His other plays include “High,” which had its world premiere at TheaterWorks in 2010, “Looped” and the Dr. Seuss parody “Who’s Holiday,” which began as a one-act in TheaterWorks’ “Christmas on the Rocks.” The playhouse then presents two musicals in a row. “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat” by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice, which began as a cantata for children in 1968 based on a story in the biblical Book of Genesis and was later adapted into a full-length Broadway-style musical, runs June 26 through July 27. From Aug. 7 through Sept. 7, the playhouse is staging Lerner & Loewe’s “My Fair Lady,” one of the most successful musicals of the 20th century, based on the George Bernard Shaw play “Pygmalion” about a speech specialist who bets that he can pass off the flower seller Eliza Doolittle as a high-born lady. The October attraction is “Incident at Our Lady of Perpetual Help,” a comedy set in the 1970s that’s set in motion when an older sister tells her siblings about “the birds and the bees.” It runs Oct. 2-26. The 2025 Ivoryton Playhouse season ends with the Nov. 20 through Dec. 21 run of “Playhouse Holiday Jamboree.” The playhouse has created several holiday shows in the past, including this year’s “God Bless Us Everyone,” which is running through Dec. 15. “Playhouse Holiday Jamboree” is described as “a new, homegrown holiday celebration featuring a festive blend of music, storytelling, and laughter.” Performance times are changing for the 2025 season. Like several other theaters in Connecticut, the playhouse will be starting all its evening performances at 7:30 p.m. and not 8 p.m. There will also be seven performances of each show a week, up from six this year, with each show running for four weeks. The Ivoryton Playhouse was founded by New York producer Milton Stiefel in 1930 (just a year before Katharine Hepburn performed there) as a summer-only theater that began with a local repertory company, the New York Players, and grew into a popular summer stock theater which featured major stars from theater and film in popular plays of the time. Groucho Marx, Marlon Brando, Art Carney, Helen Hayes and Betty Grable are among the many stars who performed there before the theater closed its doors in the late 1970s. It was reopened nearly a decade later by the River Rep troupe headed by the Thompson family, who did shows there for 18 years. In 2006, Jacqueline Hubbard, who is still its artistic director today, turned the playhouse into a year-round theater with a six-play subscription season and numerous special events.

Don't seek cover of weak currency: CEA to companiesJohn Parker Romo made a 29-yard field goal to lift the Minnesota Vikings to a 30-27 overtime win against the host Chicago Bears on Sunday afternoon. Romo buried the game-winning kick in his third career game for Minnesota (9-2), which won its fourth game in a row. The score capped a 10-play, 68-yard drive for the Vikings after the Bears went three-and-out on the first overtime possession. Sam Darnold completed 22 of 34 passes for 330 yards and two touchdowns to lead the Vikings. Wideout Jordan Addison finished with eight catches for a career-high 162 yards and a touchdown. The overtime defeat spoiled an impressive performance from rookie quarterback Caleb Williams, who completed 32 of 47 passes for 340 yards and two touchdowns for Chicago (4-7). D.J. Moore had seven catches for 106 yards and a touchdown, and Keenan Allen finished with nine catches for 86 yards and a score. Chicago erased an 11-point deficit in the final 22 seconds of regulation to send the game to overtime. Romo had put Minnesota on top 27-16 when he made a 26-yard field goal with 1:56 remaining in the fourth quarter. Williams trimmed the Bears' deficit to 27-24 with 22 seconds to go. He rolled right and found Allen wide open in the end zone for a 1-yard touchdown, and moments later he fired a strike to Moore for a two-point conversion. The Bears recovered an onside kick on the next play to regain possession at their 43-yard line with 21 seconds left. Cairo Santos' onside kick bounced off the foot of Vikings tight end Johnny Mundt, and Tarvarius Moore recovered it. D.J. Moore put the Bears in field-goal position with a 27-yard reception across the middle of the field, and Santos made a 48-yarder as time expired to even the score at 27-all. Minnesota led 24-10 after three quarters. Romo made a 40-yard field goal early in the third quarter, and Aaron Jones punched in a 2-yard run with 1:22 left in the period to put the Vikings on top by two touchdowns. Addison and Jalen Nailor each had receiving touchdowns in the first half for Minnesota. Roschon Johnson scored on a 1-yard run for the Bears' only touchdown of the first half. Chicago trailed 14-10 at the break. --Field Level Media

SLAM Academy rallies past Truckee for 1st football state title

On Jan. 29, 1969, as it was later confirmed, Air Force Capt. Robert Holton of Butte, Montana, made the ultimate sacrifice for his country when his F4 Phantom Fighter was shot down over Laos during the Vietnam War. Sue MacPherson, who hung out with Holton as a teenager, got a silver POW-MIA bracelet with his name on it in 1972. The military presumed him dead in 1973 but he remained missing, so MacPherson kept the bracelet on. But she did more than that. Sue MacPherson stands for a portrait on Tuesday, Nov. 12, 2024 in her home in Butte. She was living in Billings in 1972 and saw the mother of Navy pilot Rodney Knutson of Montana, a POW in Vietnam, on a TV show promoting POW-MIA awareness. “So I contacted her to see what I could do and told her I had a friend who was MIA and she put me in touch with another lady who was doing some stuff,” MacPherson said. “We opened a little office and sold POW-MIA bracelets in Billings, and we got the schools to get POW flags,” she said. “We just did a lot of awareness.” She’s done a lifetime of that now and her never-ending efforts are why she’s among this year’s class of Local Heroes in Butte. “Sue is great example of honor and commitment to our veterans and Butte,” Mary McMahon said in her nomination of MacPherson. MacPherson was at the state Capitol in Montana in 1973 when the Freedom Tree was planted in honor of Holton and other POW-MIAs from Montana. Sue MacPherson stands for a portrait on Tuesday, Nov. 12, 2024 in her home in Butte. In 2009, when MacPherson moved back to Butte, she visited the Freedom Tree and found its plaque covered in pine needles. “It was like they were forgotten so I went on a campaign,” she said. She contacted the governor’s office, got volunteer bricklayers to help, raised $2,500 that paid for a bench and a granite monument, and the American Legion of Helena donated a new plaque. It honors the 22 MIAs from Montana who were lost during the Vietnam War, including nine not listed on the original 1973 plaque, with asterisks denoting those whose remains were since found and returned home. MacPherson, then Gov. Steve Bullock and others rededicated the Freedom Tree at the upgraded site in 2015. In January 2017, remains were excavated at a crash site in Laos and later verified as those of Capt. Holton. They were returned to Butte and Holton’s brother, Bill, in July 2017. Hundreds lined streets as Holton’s casket was escorted into town by 70 motorcycle riders and 20 other vehicles, and Holton was buried at Sunset Memorial Park west of Butte the next day. MacPherson delivered the final touch when she took off her bracelet and laid it on top of the casket to be buried with her lifelong friend. MacPherson co-chaired local efforts this year to bring The Wall That Heals to Butte. The traveling replica of the Vietnam Memorial in Washington, D.C., was at Father Sheehan Park for five days this summer. During an opening ceremony, MacPherson read the names of at least 22 men who were from Butte or joined military here and were killed in Vietnam. She helped track down some of their family members so they could attend. MacPherson has a new mission now of promoting the In Memory Program, which honors those who served in Vietnam and later died. It is led by the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund. “I’m kind of on the move, letting people know about it, helping them make an application if they need help,” MacPherson said. “I think every Vietnam veteran should be honored, especially the way they were treated when they came home.” To this day, MacPherson said, MIAs are not forgotten. “They’re finding them every day,” she said. They’re finding soldiers from World War II, which is unbelievable to me. I’m so proud that we’re continuing the search.” Knutson, the Montana POW, survived years of captivity and is living in Montana today. MacPherson had lunch with him this summer.

He even lost a couple of games. Not in basketball, though. Wemby was playing chess. And this wasn’t on a whim: He knows how to play and even brought his own chess set. Before the San Antonio Spurs left New York for a flight to Minnesota, Wembanyama put out the call on social media: “Who wants to meet me at the SW corner of Washington Square park to play chess? Im there,” Wembanyama wrote. POV: You’re playing chess with @wemby on a Saturday morning in Washington Square Park ♟️🗽 pic.twitter.com/gnxdvPE69l It was 9:36 a.m. People began showing up almost immediately. Washington Square Park is a known spot for chess in New York — Bobby Fischer among others have famously played there, and it’s been used for multiple movie scenes featuring the game. Wembanyama was there for an hour in the rain, from about 10-11 a.m. He played four games, winning two and losing two — he told Bleacher Report afterward that both of the losses were to professional chess players — before departing to catch the Spurs’ flight. Wembanyama had been trying to get somewhere to play chess for the bulk of the team’s time in New York — the Spurs played the Knicks on Christmas and won at Brooklyn on Friday night. The schedule never aligned, until Saturday morning. And even with bad weather, he bundled up to make it happen. He posed for photos with a couple of dozen people who showed up, braving a morning of cold rain to play chess with one of the NBA’s biggest stars. “We need an NBA players only Chess tournament, proceeds go to the charity of choice of the winner,” he wrote on social media after his chess trip was over. Wembanyama is averaging 25.2 points and 10.1 rebounds this season, his second in the NBA after winning rookie of the year last season. The Spurs play at Minnesota on Sunday.

Senator Joel-Onowakpo Thomas, representing Delta South Senatorial District has been commended over the Bills he sponsored seeking to establish a School of Nursing in Patani, in Patani Local Government Area and a Polytechnic in Bomadi in Bomadi Local Government Area both in Ijaw areas of Delta State. This commendation was made by Ijaw National Congress(INC), main umbrella body of Ijaw ethnic nationality in a statement signed by Prof Benjamin O. G. Okaba, President General, Ijaw National Congress (Worldwide). Prof. Okaba stated that the Ijaws in Delta State and across the globe are thrilled at the prospects of having such higher institutions finally located in their long-neglected communities. According to Prof. Okaba, “” Ijaw National Congress (INC) is aware of two critical Bills currently before the Senate of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. These bills, sponsored by Senator Joel-Onowakpo, who represents Delta South Senatorial District seeks to establish a School of Nursing in Patani in Patani Local Government Area and a Polytechnic in Bomadi in Bomadi Local Government Area both within Ijaw areas of Delta State. “We, the Ijaws in Delta State and across the globe are particularly thrilled at the prospects of having such higher institutions finally located in our long-neglected communities.” Giving a brief historical perspective, Prof Okaba stated that for decades, the Ijaw people of Delta State have consistently advocated for the establishment of higher institutions in their areas, he regretted that hose appeals fell on deaf ears, adding, “even though, Delta State boasts of the highest number of higher institutions in Nigeria. Prof. Okaba spoke further, “nearly all other ethnic groups within the state have benefited from these institutions, with some ethnic nationalities enjoying the presence of multiple federal and state institutions, including Universities, Polytechnics, Colleges of Education, Nursing Schools, and specialized Medical Schools. In contrast, the Ijaw areas have been systematically overlooked. “Regrettably, this marginalization persisted despite the fact that Ijaw representatives have served in parliament for extended periods some for over two decades. “This makes Senator Joel Onowakpo’s efforts even more commendable, as he has demonstrated rare leadership and inclusiveness in championing the cause of the Ijaw people .To Senator Joel- Onowakpo, the Ijaw National Congress says: The reward for hard work is more work. The Ijaw National Congress (INC) then appealed to the Senate President and the Speaker of the House of Representatives to ensure that the two Bills are expedited through the legislative process, adding that the significance of the Bills cannot be overemphasized, “as they directly address the long-standing educational aspirations of the Ijaw people of Delta State.” Prof. Okaba also called on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to add his voice to, adding, “furthermore, we humbly call on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to leverage his Presidential influence to support the swift passage of these Bils through the National Assembly and to give his Assent promptly once they are passed. At this critical juncture in history, these projects represent the most meaningful way to address the developmental yearnings of the Delta Ijaws. “Mr. President, we trust in your leadership and commitment to equity and inclusivity. This is a golden opportunity to bring lasting change to a group of people that has endured decades of neglect.”FAIRMONT, W.Va. (WV News) – The great teams make the difficult look easy and the Class AAA No. 3 Bridgeport Indians did it again on Saturday afternoon, dispatching defending Class AA state champion and this year’s No. 2 seed Fairmont Senior Polar Bears, 36-7, in a dominant performance on both sides of the ball in the Class AAA state semifinals at East-West Stadium. Bridgeport (13-0) now faces No. 4 Herbert Hoover (13-0) in the Class AAA championship game at Laidley Field in Charleston on Saturday at 12 p.m. Bridgeport returns to the title game for the first time since winning Class AA in 2019 and has now made the five of the last eight finals that they weren’t in the state’s highest classification. "None of our kids have ever been there before," Bridgeport coach Tyler Phares said of making it to the final round. "Fairmont Senior's a very, very good football program and we know that we wanted to bust that door down that we haven't busted down in a while. It wasn't going to be easy." Fairmont Senior bows at 11-2, with both losses to Bridgeport. Timothy Jeffress led Bridgeport with 14 carries for 123 yards and two touchdowns, with Alex Moses (16 carries, 89 yards, two touchdowns) and Josh Love (14 carries, 88 yards, one touchdown, plus an interception on defense) also turning in excellent performances. "That's what we really want with this offense," Phares said. "We want to be multiple with our kids. We want to be able to run to the weak side and run our trap game in the middle and run to the strong side. It was a big deal to have Timmy get his wheels moving there in the first half. I thought it really helped us." Chris Wilson led Fairmont Senior with 11 carries for 71 yards, while Brody Whitehair, in his first real action in a month due to injury and still not 100%, completed 6 of 12 passes for 47 yards with an interception. "They were moving around in a lot of formations and it did a really good job of keeping us on our toes there early on," Phares said. "They were really able to run the ball and move the ball on us. It was more difficult than we expected." Jeffress picked up 23 yards on third-and-3 on Bridgeport’s opening set of downs, setting up Alex Moses’ 1-yard touchdown push up the middle with 7:52 left in the first quarter. The run for 2 failed, leaving Bridgeport ahead, 6-0. After a bad snap for a loss of 15 yards derailed Fairmont Senior’s first drive, Bridgeport moved the ball across midfield on a Love run, then Jack Spatafore lofted a 30-yard pass down the left side to Donovan Williams, moving the ball to the Polar Bears’ 16. On third-and-6, Love went left for nine yards. Fairmont Senior stopped Love and Jeffress on the next two plays for minimal gain, but Jeffress went in standing up behind his blockers from three yards out on the third try. Bridgeport went up 13-0 after Gavin Williams’ PAT with 1:15 left in the first quarter. Fairmont Senior then mounted a solid drive, but Bridgeport swarmed quarterback Logan Canfield’s keeper on fourth-and-3, stopping him for no gain at the Tribe 21 with 8:05 to go in the half. After a few solid runs advanced the ball over midfield, Bridgeport improved to 4-for-4 on third down as Moses easily picked up a third-and-1 down to the Fairmont Senior 33. Love went untouched up the middle for the 14-yard TD four plays later: 20-0, 3:44 left in the second quarter. Both teams got stops on fourth down, then Love intercepted Whitehair at the Bridgeport 16. An incomplete pass and a Moses run capped the half: Bridgeport led, 20-0, on the scoreboard and in offensive yards, 217-79, behind the three-headed rushing monster of Love (nine carries, 66 yards, one TD), Moses (10 carries, 63 yards, one TD) and Jeffress (eight carries, 54 yards, one TD). To open the second half, Fairmont Senior moved the ball to the Bridgeport 19 before turning the ball over on downs on a tipped pass on fourth down. "We knew they were going to come with their best football in the third quarter and I'm just proud of our kids for coming out and bowing their backs," Phares said. Jeffress ripped off 33 yards on third-and-8 to the Fairmont Senior 23 and Moses high-stepped home two plays later from 19 away: 27-0, 5:38 left in the third quarter. A sack by Noah West of Whitehair on first down forced a fumble, which Jon Bender scooped up at the Fairmont Senior 11. Jeffress went in on the next play, but the run for 2 – and a 35-point running clock – failed: 33-0, 5:24 to go in the third. After a Polar Bear punt, Bridgeport worked off the rest of the time in the third quarter, then tacked on a Williams 34-yard field goal: 36-0 with 8:46 remaining in the game. Damani Johnson’s 67-yard TD rush with 5:46 to go spared Fairmont Senior its first home shutout since Sept. 19, 2003 against University. "I feel like we get better every year, no matter what season it is," Phares said. "Our goal is to play our best football come November...our kids did a really good job of getting better at football every day and I think that's showing right now."

This is an excerpt from The Buzzer, which is CBC Sports' daily email newsletter. Stay up to speed on what's happening in sports by subscribing here . Here's our weekly look at the top performances by Canada's Olympic athletes on Saturday and Sunday. But first, some news involving an international star. Alpine skiing: Shiffrin crash costs her a big win Mikaela Shiffrin was on the verge of becoming the first alpine skier ever to reach 100 World Cup wins when the American star was injured in a crash during Saturday's giant slalom race at Killington resort in Vermont. Shiffrin led after the first run and had the finish line in sight on her final run when she lost an edge and went head-over-skis into the safety netting lining the course. She suffered a deep puncture wound on the right side of her abdomen but appeared to escape any other significant injuries, the U.S. ski team said. "Something stabbed me," Shiffrin said in a video she posted on social media . There's no timeline yet for her return. A controversial new rule requires alpine skiers to wear airbags that deploy when they crash, but the special vests are only required for the downhill and the super-G — the fastest and most dangerous of the alpine disciplines. Serious injuries are far less common in the giant slalom and slalom. Canada's Valerie Grenier finished ninth in the giant slalom — her first race since a devastating crash ended her season last January. Laurence St-Germain was a season-best seventh in Sunday's slalom. Quebec's Mont-Tremblant was scheduled to host a pair of women's giant slaloms this coming weekend, but they were cancelled due to a lack of snow . The men will be at Colorado's Beaver Creek for the first downhill and super-G races of the season. Here's a look at the Canadians competing there . Freestyle skiing: A special win for Kingsbury World Cup moguls victories are almost routine for Canada's Mikaël Kingsbury, who came into the season opener in Finland with a record 90 of them alongside his eight world titles and 2018 Olympic gold medal. But Saturday's win was Kingsbury's first as a dad, and his three-month-old son Henrik was there for it. "It's so cool to have my family here and win in front of my kid," said Kingsbury, who called it a "top three" moment in his career. WATCH | Kingsbury opens World Cup season in style in Finland: Canada's Kingsbury kicks off World Cup moguls season on the top spot of the podium 2 days ago Duration 1:15 The greatest mogul skier in history Mikaël Kingsbury dominated Saturday's men's moguls event securing the gold medal with a score of 83.90 in Ruka, Finland. Kingsbury won by a comfortable margin over Sweden's Walter Wallberg, who beat him for the Olympic gold in 2022, and Japan's Ikuma Horishima, who took the World Cup moguls championship from Kingsbury last season (Kingsbury retained the dual moguls and overall titles). Canada's Maia Schwinghammer placed fourth in the women's event, matching the best World Cup moguls result of her career (she won a silver in dual moguls last year). Curling: Homan wins another Slam Canada's Rachel Homan skipped her team to a 6-5 win over Sweden's Anna Hasselborg in the women's final at the National on Sunday for their second consecutive Grand Slam title. The reigning world champs went undefeated all week in St. John's to extend their winning streak to 23 games and they're now 40-2 on the season. This was Homan's record-extending 17th career Grand Slam trophy. WATCH | Homan defeats Hasselborg to win Kioti National crown: Rachel Homan captures Kioti National title with victory over Sweden's Hasselborg 1 day ago Duration 1:53 Ottawa's Rachel Homan of Ottawa defeats Anna Hasselborg of Sweden 6-5 in the Kioti National women's final for a record-extending 17th Grand Slam of Curling women's title. Scotland's Bruce Mouat beat Canadian Brad Jacobs 5-3 in the men's final. Mouat's team has won all three men's Grand Slams so far this season. The next Slam is the Masters in mid-January in Guelph, Ont. Speed skating: A so-so weekend for Canada Canada's long track speed skaters have set a high standard for themselves over the last few years. They won five medals at the 2022 Winter Olympics, a national-record 10 at the 2024 single-distances world championships in Calgary, and they opened the current World Cup season with four podium appearances (including a gold) a couple of weekends ago in Japan. But their latest performance fell below those lofty standards as Canada finished with just two medals at the second World Cup stop in Beijing. Isabelle Weidemann took bronze in the women's 3,000m (matching her result from the 2022 Olympics on the same track) and Valérie Maltais earned silver in the women's mass start. Canada was a bit unlucky, though. Ivanie Blondin, who won a medal of each colour at the World Cup opener, crossed the line second in the women's mass start but was disqualified for illegal contact. And Canada placed fourth in both the men's and women's team sprints. American Jordan Stolz starred again, winning four individual gold medals for the fourth World Cup in a row. The World Cup tour continues in January at Calgary's Olympic Oval. Other notable Canadian results: * Freestyle skier Dylan Deschamps won his second World Cup big air bronze of the season in Beijing. He was the only Canadian to qualify for a final in the Chinese capital, which also hosted snowboard big air events. * Canadian track cyclist Dylan Bibic maintained his lead atop the men's endurance standings while Sarah Van Dam sits second in the women's endurance chase through three rounds of the Track Cycling Champions League. The final two rounds go this Friday and Saturday in England. * The Canadian women's rugby sevens team finished eighth at the SVNS Series opener in Dubai. Canada earned a surprising silver medal at the Paris Olympics after upsetting Australia in the semifinals, but the top-seeded Aussies routed Canada 39-0 in Sunday's quarterfinals before beating Olympic champ New Zealand in the title match.Where most travelers dream of going: countries and cities namedCharles Schwab Corp. stock outperforms competitors despite losses on the day
