Mark St. Germain’s play is filled with the humor, honesty, and life-affirming spirit of Karola Ruth Siegel, the girl who became “Dr. Ruth,” America’s most famous sex therapist.
Everyone knows Dr. Ruth Westheimer from her career as a pioneering radio and television sex therapist. Few, however, know the incredible journey that preceded it. From fleeing the Nazis in the Kindertransport and joining the Haganah in Jerusalem as a sniper, to her struggle to succeed as a single mother newly-arrived in America, her’s is a stunning tale of becoming Dr. Ruth.

“An illuminating portrait…her story is certainly a stirring one.” - NY Times

This October, magic and mystery return to Catskill! Bridge Street Theatre presents Devils ’N Details, a new magic show by acclaimed magician Peter Samelson, running October 24–26, 2025. Performances are Friday and Saturday at 7:30pm and Sunday at 2:00pm.

Known as “the soft-spoken conceptualist of sorcery” (New York Times), Samelson has captivated audiences worldwide — from the Great Wall of China to Parisian salons — with his blend of illusion, theatre, and philosophy. Recently featured on Penn & Teller: Fool Us, where he was hailed as “one of the greatest living magicians,” Samelson is also co-founder of New York City’s longest-running off-Broadway magic show Monday Night Magic, a frequent headliner at Speakeasy Magick, and a recipient of the Merlin Award for Lifetime Achievement.

In Devils ’N Details, Samelson reveals how the unseen shapes our world, drawing laughter, awe, and just a touch of Halloween eeriness. Expect a night where illusions unravel into truths — and where the devil truly is in the details.

Tickets are $25 for Adults and $15 for Students. Performances at Bridge Street Theatre, 44 West Bridge Street, Catskill, NY. Reserve your seats now at bridgest.org/devils.

The Norman Rockwell Museum is honored to present a rare series of early twentieth century lighting advertisements by Norman Rockwell and fellow Golden Age illustrators Maxfield Parrish, N.C. Wyeth, Dean Cornwell, Stanley Arthurs, Worth Brehm, and Charles Chambers created for Edison Mazda Lamps, a division of the General Electric Company. These luminous, richly painted works were widely circulated in published advertisements through the 1920s and are on loan to the Museum for the first time through the generosity of GE Aerospace.

“Once a Tree: Continuity, Creativity, and Connection” explores the deep-rooted significance of trees in Haudenosaunee culture, tradition, and creative expression. Featuring the work of 42 artists and more than 100 objects—including decorative and utilitarian baskets, cradleboards, snowshoes, ladles, lacrosse sticks, toys, instruments, carvings, and sleds—this exhibition highlights the important relationship between nature and artistry. Selected from the Museum’s permanent collection, the exhibition was created with guidance from curatorial consultants Terry Chrisjohn III (Oneida), Preston Jacobs (Mohawk), and Sheila Ransom (Mohawk).

"Separated but Unbroken: The Haudenosaunee Boarding School Experience" explores the lasting impact of the Thomas Indian School, once located on the Cattaraugus Reservation south of Buffalo, NY, and The Mohawk Institute near Branford, Ontario. These institutions, which enrolled a significant number of Haudenosaunee students, were part of a larger system that sought to erase Indigenous identities while deeply shaping the lives of those who endured them. Co-curated by Erin Keaton (Mohawk), the exhibition sheds light on Haudenosaunee resilience.
