Celebrate the season — and a year of incredible music — with award-winning singer-songwriter Abbie Thomas (and her band, The Crazy Hearts) alongside award-winning alternative folk band Shiny Shiny Black for a one-night-only Holiday Homecoming concert at the historic Goshen Theater on November 15! Just two weeks after the 2025 Josie Music Awards at the Grand Ole Opry — where Naptone winners Shiny Shiny Black have earned their first two JMA nominations, pianist Simon Kauffman Hurst (who plays in both bands) has received his first major nomination for Piano Player of the Year, and Abbie Thomas has earned 15 JMA nominations, a win at the Hollywood Independent Music Awards, and a first-round Grammy consideration — the artists will bring the party home to Goshen to celebrate in their hometown where the music has been created. The evening will feature full sets from each band, with songs from both artists’ brand-new holiday EPs – including classic holiday covers – alongside their award-nominated originals, blending soul, jazz, blues, alternative folk, and thoughtful songwriting into a festive, heartfelt celebration of music and community.

Don Andrea will see his revenge — from beyond the grave. Following his dishonorable demise in battle at the hands of Portugal’s Prince Balthazar, the ghost of the Spanish don and the spirit of Revenge witness the fallout of his death.

Take a seat beside them. Behold the murderous schemes in the corrupt court of an incompetent king, and the vengeance visited upon those who abuse their power.

The Spanish Tragedy, one of the first blockbusters of the English renaissance stage, defined the modern revenge tale. Now it’s coming right here to South Bend, Indiana. Join us November 7–16 at The Well Coffee House for the play that started it all, presented by AMP Theatre Company.

Inspired by her family’s Sephardic roots in Greece and Macedonia, Sarah Aroeste has spent the last 15 years bringing her contemporary style of original and traditional Ladino music to audiences around the world.

Sarah writes and sings in Ladino, the Judeo-Spanish dialect originated from Spanish Jews after their expulsion from Spain in 1492. American born, she has worked tirelessly to keep Ladino music alive for a new generation. Her style, whether with her original music or with interpreting Ladino folk repertoire, combines traditional Mediterranean Sephardic sounds with contemporary influences such as rock, pop, electronica and jazz.

In the last decade, Sarah has amassed a large and loyal following across the United States and abroad, and she has been featured in both national and international press.

Join us in the Miller Auditorium at Goshen Theater on November 29th, for our FREE MOVIE NIGHT showing of “Muppets Christmas Carol” at 2PM!

The Muppets perform the classic Dickens holiday tale, with Kermit the Frog playing Bob Cratchit, the put-upon clerk of stingy Ebenezer Scrooge (Michael Caine). Other Muppets — Miss Piggy, Gonzo, Fozzie Bear and Sam the Eagle — weave in and out of the story, while Scrooge receives visits from spirits of three Christmases — past, present and future. They show him the error of his self-serving ways, but the miserable old man seems to be past any hope of redemption and happiness.

Rated: PG
Run Time: 1hr 25min

Doors open at 1:15pm, and the bar and concession stand will be open.
