BINGHAMTON, N.Y. (WIVT/WBGH) – Put on your best dancing shoes and get ready to feed the soul with some of the greatest Motown and R&B hits. The Binghamton Philharmonic is closing out the Visions Pops Series tomorrow at 7:30, featuring Capathia Jenkins in She's Got Soul.
Jenkins started her career on Broadway, featured in musicals such as Newsies and Caroline, before traveling the world, singing her favorite music. She'll be accompanied by the 3 backup singers and the entire philharmonic orchestra.
'When I think about Gladys Knight, she's my favorite singer of all time. And just the fact that she sings with so much authentic soul. There's something about soul music that can move an entire auditorium, and you don't even know why. And I say this to the audience, if you here your jam, get on up,' Jenkins said.
The concert will take place tomorrow evening at 7:30 at the Broome County Forum Theatre. Tickets are on sale now for $28.
You can purchase your tickets online and find the program for the performance at BinghamtonPhilharmonic.org.

Fancy Swiss Chocolatier Läderach Is Bringing ‘FrischSchoggi' to Washington State

Seattle-area malls are going to be upgrading their chocolate offerings this summer, as the Swiss brand Läderach is set to open two stores, one in Westfield Southcenter next month, and one in Bellevue Square in August. These will be the first Läderach locations in Washington State; the chain already has locations across the country, including a flagship store in New York. So, what's Läderach? The thing the brand is most famous for, according to the press release we got, is 'FrischSchoggi,' a.k.a. fresh chocolate. You order at the counter by weight, and a Läderach chocolatier breaks pieces of chocolate off of slabs. The stores will also have the kinds of thing you'd expect at a chocolate shop, including truffles, bars, popcorn, and so on. Everything comes from Läderach's production facilities in Switzerland. Now on to more news you should know: Rainier Beer may not be brewed in Seattle anymore, but the brand is still trying to keep a foot on the ground here with R-Day, a free music festival in Georgetown that serves as a 'thank you letter' to Seattle, according to the brand. This year R-Day lands on September 6, and will be headlined by Mudhoney. There will also be food courtesy of the Dubsea Fish Sticks truck, plus (of course) Rainier Beer and cocktails using Rainier gin. Go here for more info. After a $2.5 million renovation, the cafe at the Museum of Pop Culture has reopened. The new restaurant, called The Lounge, features food from new head chef Athan Pixler. According to a press release, Pixler's menu will include items like tempura squash blossoms, dry-aged salmon with dashi, and a koji-aged burger with bone marrow butter. This follows a trend of museums around town stepping their dining game up; a couple years ago acclaimed tapas restaurant MariPili took over the cafe at the Frey. Seattle's most famous market is throwing its annual big fundraising dinner on August 16. The Sunset Supper, which brings together 100 restaurants and producers for a party at the market, regularly raises hundreds of thousands for the Pike Place Market Foundation, a nonprofit that supports the market and provides a variety of social services in the neighborhood. Tickets are $250; to purchase and for more information, go here. See More: Coming Attractions Seattle Restaurant News

Harris Yulin, Emmy-Nominated Actor of ‘Scarface' and ‘Ozark,' Dies at 88

Harris Yulin, a prolific Emmy-nominated actor whose career spanned more than five decades across film, television, and stage, died Tuesday of cardiac arrest in New York City. He was 88. The character actor's many films include 'Scarface,' 'Clear and Present Danger, and 'Training Day.' He also played Buddy Dieker on the Netflix series 'Ozark' from 2017 to 2018. He guested on 'Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt' and 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer' and was Emmy nominated in 1996 for a guest role on 'Frasier.' He made his film debut in 1970 in the black comedy 'End of the Road,' but landed his first featured role in Brian De Palma's 1983 'Scarface' as Mel Bernstein, a dirty narcotics cop. The actor was always memorable even in small parts, such as the New York judge in 'Ghostbusters II' who agrees to reverse murder charges for a pair of rampaging ghosts. Yulin was a well-respected theater actor, making New York debut in 1963 in 'Next Time I'll Sing to You' and first appeared on Broadway in the 1980s production of 'Watch on the Rhine.' He also starred in Broadway productions of 'The Diary of Anne Frank,' 'The Price,' and 'Hedda Gabler.' The actor was set to begin production on the MGM+ series 'American Classic,' opposite Kevin Kline and Laura Linney. Series co-creator Michael Hoffman told The Hollywood Reporter, 'Harris Yulin was very simply one of the greatest artists I have ever encountered.' Yulin was married to actress Gwen Welles Nashville from 1975 until her death in 1993 at age 42. He is survived by his second wife, actress Kristen Lowman, and his son-in-law Ted, nephew Martin and godchildren Marco and Lara.

Sarah Jessica Parker Best Family Photos: Matthew Broderick, Kids, More

Sarah Jessica Parker has been famous since she was 12 years old when she was cast in the Broadway sensation Annie. From Footloose to Sex and the City, the triple-threat actress has always found a way to stay in the limelight through every decade, but it's her family that matters to her the most. She found her partner in crime, Matthew Broderick, after being introduced by her two brothers, who worked with him in the theater community. Together, they started a family that includes son James Wilkie, born in 2002, and fraternal twins Tabitha Hodge and Marion Loretta (goes by Loretta), who were born in 2009. She described her son when he was younger as 'very small, but [with a] personality [that] is 6 feet 4' and that's evident from every mischievous photo of him on the red carpet. The twins are a totally different story; they prefer life out of the spotlight, so it's rare to see a photo of them in public (unless the paparazzi are hounding them). 'They're really devoted to each other, but they'll also say, 'I need time away from her.' Tabitha can play by herself for hours. Loretta always needs to be checking in,' she told People. 'They go to different schools. That's Tabitha's idea.' Parker is a mama bear who does her best to maintain all of her children's privacy because no matter how famous she is as the iconic Carrie Bradshaw, at home, she's just mom. See our favorite photos of Parker with her family over the years below!

In this pic, they seem so proud as they leave the hospital for the first time. Parker and Broderick then welcomed twin daughters Tabitha Hodge and Marion Loretta in 2009. In this Robin Layton photo, the family of five is all smiles with their new additions. James's fascination with his sister is truly adorable! Over the years, James has been a veteran when it comes to walking the red carpet. He's often seen accompanying his parents at premieres and Broadway openings. At the premiere of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 in 2011, James outdid his own fashionable parents in this adorable black velvet suit. How adorable! He's a big fan of theater, too! In this pic, he's attending the Catch Me If You Can Broadway premiere back in 2011. At the 2012 premiere of Nice Work If You Can Get It, Parker posed hand-in-hand with James on the carpet as he showed off her longer, shaggier haircut. When Parker attended the New York City Ballet 2018 Spring Gala in 2018, daughters Loretta and Tabitha looked like her mini-me in floral spring dresses. Despite being a full-time student at Brown University in 2021, James still made time to support his mom on her big return to the iconic role of Carrie Bradshaw at the And Just Like That… premiere in December. Speaking of supporting, both Tabitha and Loretta sweetly supported their mom at the premiere of her long-awaited movie, Hocus Pocus 2, in September 2022. At the opening night of Some Like It Hot! on Broadway in December 2022, all five of them attended and posed for photos. Broderick looked proud as can be looking at his son at the premiere of No Hard Feelings in June 2023. Broderick was joined by all three of his kids at the long-awaited premiere of Oh, Mary! on July 11, 2024. He's one proud dad! The tight-knit family had another Broadway family outing at the Smash Opening Night on April 10, 2025.
