Students Kick Off Greenfield Youth Film Fez

The winning films will air at the Keswick Theater in May.

"Since I was 11 years old I have always had a passion for entertaining a crowd," said Upper Dublin High School student Justin Asaraf.

Moms Q&A — Looking for some Local Theater

Need some theater but don't want to head downtown?

It’s that time of week once again for a little Mom Talk. Patch takes the chance to inform our readers: moms, dads, grandparents and family friends alike, to inform you each week of something new.

I don’t think they are quite ready for a Broadway show, but I’d love to work more live theater into their routine. Do you know of any good spots in Montgomery County to have them experience that?

Sincerely, Janet M., of Norristown   Thanks, Janet for the question. There are a number…
