ATLANTA -- The Spirit of Broadway presents an original show for 2013, The Skywalkers, benefiting the Compassion Programs of the Metropolitan Community Center in Atlanta.

This hysterical atypical Star Wars parody, written by Woodstock resident Trevor Petty, is "honest and respectful to each and every action in the six film saga." However, Petty saw an opportunity to create story lines, motives and intentions not originally in any of the movies. The Skywalkers will be performed on Saturday, August 24 at 8 p.m. at the First MCC Theatre.

WOODSTOCK, Ga. -- Young adult author phenoms Wendy Higgins and Jennifer Armentrout will appear at FoxTale Book Shoppe on Saturday, July 20th at 1 p.m.  FoxTale Book Shoppe is located in Downtown Woodstock at 105 East Main Street.  At this free event, you will be able to meet the authors, ask questions, take pictures, and get books signed.

Wendy Higgins is the author of SWEET EVIL and SWEET PERIL; Armentrout is hugely popular for her LUX and COVENANT novels, plus her newest release, CURSED.  FoxTale has them all.  One can come to the event and get your purchased books signed, or buy signed copies via FoxTale's website and have them mailed to you (US only). This will be a great event for young adults, aspiring writers and YA authors.
