Internet sensation Noah Guthrie performed in Shippensburg for the first time Sunday night. He walked onto the stage of The Thought Lot, with attire suggesting he has been touring on the road for months — a brown top hat, brown blazer and jeans, and to top it off, his acoustic guitar. But for Guthrie’s only third performance in his new miniature summer tour, he rocked the “little cute town” of Shippensburg leaving the impression that Guthrie has decades of rock music ahead of him. Guthrie released his first album in 2014.
Season 6 has been a long road for “The Walking Dead” fans, and the season finally ended last Sunday with an unknown casualty.
A year after Zayn Malik left mega-boy band One Direction, he has dropped his first solo album. Unsurprisingly, it has gone straight to No. 1 on the UK Albums Chart. Malik, who stirred some news within the last year with talk of his solo work, released “Mind of Mine” on March 23 to anxious fans after releasing two singles, “Pillow Talk” and “Like I Would.” The album is, for lack of a better description, really good from start to finish.
“Ship’s Got Talent” ended Wednesday night and it surely did not disappoint. The three remaining finalists, Kassandra Lawyer, Tara Kennedy and Sophia Jones, stood out in their own individual ways. Instead of singing one song each, the finalists sang twice to earn the audience’s and judges’ votes.

What are we actually saying when we speak? Are the words that we are saying actually meaningful? What does a normal conversation consist of?
Warning: Major Spoilers The highly anticipated “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” has hit theaters, and fans are eagerly waiting to watch bad production decisions be played out in a movie. Warner Bros.’ (WB) attempt to give Marvel a run for its money with its own cinematic universe of DC Comics vigilantes began with the nauseating “Man of Steel.” Director Zack Snyder has returned to tell the second part of Superman’s story, with the same mistakes, same boring action and same complete disregard for character motivation. As it is with most movies, even bad ones, there are still great things to mention. Despite my mixed reactions, everyone should see this in theater for its visual splendor. First, the good: Ben Affleck as the new Batman is stunning.
This Friday, Shippensburg University students will be perform Eugène Ionesco’s play, “The Bald Soprano.” Associate Professor of French, Blandine Mitaut, has arranged the opportunity with the Office of Social Equity, the Commission on Human Understanding and the Department of Modern Languages to allow SU students to witness an important “anti-play,” originally written in the 1950s. The brochure explains that “The Bald Soprano” is a “parody of bourgeois preoccupations with conformity and the pettiness of a life lived artificially,” that “Ionesco reveals the absurdity of a world without apparent meaning.” The play will have three performances — this Friday at 8:00 p.m., this Saturday at 3:00 p.m.
Judges and audiences eagerly anticipated who would be eliminated and accepted for the next round of APB’s “Ship’s Got Talent.” Last Wednesday, the list of participants was cut in half, and the event was naturally shorter.
