Highland Neighborhood News and Events

Naturally bordered by the scenic and winding Mississippi River, Highland Park is centrally located in the Twin Cities and yet boasts it’s own small-town feel. The Village, a shopping district with plenty of restaurants, boutiques, and beautiful public gardens, is in the heart of the Highland Park neighborhood. Families thrive on the recreational opportunities with miles of park land, golf, little league, a movie theater and a newly renovated park pavilion. Walking quaint, tree lined streets to kindergarten or graduate school, the public library or church, or to The Village for its annual 3 day festival, Highlandfest, there's something for everyone to enjoy in Highland Park.

When you pick up a ticket for a play entitled My Mother's Lesbian Jewish Wiccan Wedding (currently in production at the Minnesota Jewish Theatre), you sort of know what you're signing up for as an audience member. However, when I first got the assignment to review the show, I didn't notice that it was also a musical. Or that the play started its life as a big hit in the Toronto Fringe Festival. My Mother's Lesbian Jewish Wiccan Wedding is unapologetically political, and completely adorable.MORE »
