When murder roars through a small Missouri town, Ruth Hoch begins her own quest to find truth and honesty amid small town jealousies, religion, greed and lies. This tornado of a play propels you through its events like a page-turning mystery. NEXTstage Repertory is the all-student performance division of Centenary University's Theatre Department, featuring students and alumni.

"When you love someone, you love the whole person as he or she is, and not as you would like them to be." - Leo Tolstoy (1828-1910), Russian author
So if you were hoping for a romantic excursion this weekend, but your significant other volunteered you to host a Super Bowl party, apparently you’re supposed to love that whole person as he or she is.
Hold on - you can do both! We deem it appropriate to celebrate Valentine’s Day Friday-Monday, with the big game a blip on the radar. Check out this special Valentine’s Day 2022 page for ideas and inspiration. We didn’t find any Super Bowl parties, though, so you’re on your own there.
How do you like this week's cover photo? We found it on Pinterest and thought it was cute.
Happy Valentine’s Day, Happy Super Bowl LVI, and Happy Wanderings!
