  3. Review: Tracking mysteries with Father Brown

    The Father Brown stories penned in the early 1900s by British critic-novelist-philosopher G.K. Chesterton still rank among the best examples of the detective fiction genre. Little Candle Productions’ original adaptation, “The Innocence of Father Brown,” sets out to translate the spirit of fun and philosophical depth in the exploits of Chesterton’s owlish, crime-solving cleric onto the Fremont Centre Theatre stage.

  7. A Catholic homecoming

After the sex abuse scandal that rocked the Roman Catholic Church, droves of Catholics found their way to the undecorated sanctuary and fresh air of Willow Creek. Author Chris Haw probably passed them going the opposite direction.
