The Ordway Center for the Performing Arts is presenting the Pulitzer Prize-winning thriller A Soldier’s Play at the Fitzgerald Theater through Sunday evening. A Soldier’s Play tells the story of the murder of a Black sergeant on a Louisiana Army base in 1944. Directed by Tony Award winner Kenny Leon, the play will star Emmy, Tony and SAG Award nominee Norm Lewis as Captain Richard Davenport. This play marks the first time the Ordway has presented a show at the Fitzgerald Theater, Saint Paul’s oldest surviving theater space, in more than 20 years.

More than 100 people gathered last Thursday evening inside Landmark Center for the inaugural Rondo Night, a block party-style event celebrating Saint Paul’s historic Black neighborhood, which was razed during the 1960s construction of Interstate 94.

Kate Beane fills many roles. She is executive director of the Minnesota Museum of American Art in downtown Saint Paul, serves on the Capitol Area Architectural Planning Board and is an adjunct professor at the University of Minnesota.

"Urban Expedition" is a popular free family event at the Landmark Center, highlighting traditions from different countries.

An Illinois-based real estate company has acquired a prime office building in downtown Saint Paul — the long-vacant Ecolab University office tower — with the intent of converting the 16-story high-rise into apartment rentals.
