    Sedona AZ (April 14, 2016) – The Stratford Festival’s renowned new production of “Hamlet” makes its Sedona big-screen debut on Sunday, April 24. The Sedona International Film Festival hosts the high-definition premiere from its home in Canada’s prestigious festival. There will be one show at 3 p.m. at the festival’s Mary D. Fisher Theatre.

    A ghostly visitor with a shocking secret, a daughter devastated by loss, a deadly duel and the most famous question in all of drama: Shakespeare’s iconic tragedy will hold you spellbound.

    “Hamlet” has been called the greatest play in the English language and this production from the world-renowned Stratford Festival “the most complete, most fulfilling, most satisfying in decades of theatre-going.” Jonathan Goad is witty and courageous in the title role, but also deeply human. The film excites and surprises at every turn, with a cast of some of the finest classical actors in the world bringing to life the most intense and heart-breaking relationships the stage has ever seen.

    Since the recent death of old King Hamlet, Denmark has been adjusting to the new regime of Claudius, the late king’s brother, and preparing for an anticipated conflict with Norway. On the battlements of the royal castle at Elsinore, the sentries are on edge – and not just because of the threat of war. Twice now, a spectral figure resembling the old king has appeared to them on their nightly watch.

    Meanwhile, young Prince Hamlet remains in deep mourning for his father, his grief compounded by disgust at the speedy remarriage of his mother, Gertrude, to his uncle, Claudius – a union that Hamlet considers incestuous. But even more anguish is in store when Hamlet discovers the truth about his father’s death – and finds himself cast in the role of avenger.

    “Hamlet” will be shown at the Mary D. Fisher Theatre on Sunday, April 24 at 3:00 p.m. Tickets are $15, or $12.50 for Film Festival members. Tickets are available in advance at the Sedona International Film Festival office or by calling 928-282-1177. Both the theatre and film festival office are located at 2030 W. Hwy. 89A, in West Sedona. For more information, visit: www.SedonaFilmFestival.org.

    City Council Weighs ATV Ban Ordinance Proposal
    By Tommy Acosta
    The Sedona City Council at its May 23, 2023 meeting took no action on a proposed ordinance that would ban all off-road vehicles from being driven on state-owned public roads or streets owned by the city. The ordinance, spearheaded by Sedona Mayor Scott Jablow on the premise that such vehicles pose a risk to the health, safety and welfare of the community, would impose heavy fines to anyone driving the ATVs or OHVs on city streets, including S.R. 179 and S.R. 89A. ATV rental companies have admitted that such vehicles are not intended or designed to be driven on paved roads, yet, in Arizona, they are allowed to do so under Arizona Revised Statute 28-1174 (4B). Opponents against the ordinance argued at the meeting that if adopted the ban would cripple the ATV rental industry in Sedona and cause much hardship to the owners and employees, as it would effectively, as written, destroy their livelihood.
