Reminiscing: 25 Years at the Palace
By Marcy HorstIn 2020, our 20th Palace Theatre anniversary celebratory year was abruptly interrupted by the pandemic. We are hoping to make up for that loss now, celebrating 25 years! Watch this space every week as we rewind the story of the Palace. I’ll also be sharing updates on special anniversary deals and activities at the movies.I attended the first movie at the Palace, “Runaway Bride,” with my family, on grand opening night, November 14, 1999. The Wildwoods will be in Garrison Sunday, November 10th
The Wildwoods are an enchanting Folk/Americana trio based in Lincoln, Nebraska, comprised of husband and wife team Noah (guitar) and Chole Gose (violin) and Andrew Vaggalis (bass). Their music has been described by Paste Magazine as “focused and charmingly human”. The Wildwoods play some beautiful original music, inspired by nature, love, experiences from the road and growing up in Nebraska.
