Lucas Grabeel to perform at Landers Theatre on 8/12
You may best know Springfield native Lucas Grabeel for his portrayal of Ryan Evans in the hit movie series High School Musical.
But the Kickapoo High graduate does more than just Bop Bop Bop, Bop to the Top, he's an accomplished singer/songwriter, voice over actor, director, and producer.
Lucas crafted his acting skills on the stage of the Historic Landers Theatre in downtown Springfield before he took the leap to Hollywood. So, when he returned home for a visit, it only made sense he'd return to the same stage that he spent hours performing on as a teen.

You can catch @mrgrabeel performing orginal music, disney songs, and broadway showtunes on 8/12 at Landers Theatre! Tickets are going fast: SpringfieldLittleTheatre .

Is this a dream? 929 Days of Summer is Underway.
I feel as if this should be a "Dear Diary" entry, but alas, it is not- even so, a year ago, I didn't expect one- let alone three- businesses naming menu items after me.
So, here we are, in the middle the station's 929 Days of Summer Promotion. I'm proud to say right now, you can get three things called "The Julie" at local businesses. Penn Station Subs was generous enough to create an entire meal deal for me to offer to you, dear listener. "The Julie" at Penn Station subs is essentially a B.L.A.T with chips and a lemonade.
@andjuliewilson Idk how i ended up with a sandwich, ice cream, and a spray tan kit named after me, but im not mad about it! SPRINGFIELD, MO FRIENDS, check this out! @929thebeat @palmbeachtan @coldstonecreamery #pennstationsubs #springfield #mo #missouri #springfieldmo #SplashSummerVibe #92daysofsummer ♬ Welcome To New York - Taylor Swift
A bacon, lettuce, avocado, tomato sandwich first entered the scope of my favorite foods after i spent several days in New York City with friends- I ordered this nearly everywhere we went, so it was natural choice when crafting a sandwich deal of my own.After your sandwich, the sweet tooth will no doubt hit. Swing by Cold Stone Creamy for "The Julie". I like my ice cream combinations to have a combination of textures and flavors, so while crafted I sort of went wild adding toppings. "The Julie" consists of the Oero Cream Ice Cream, topped with pretzels, marshmallows, and a brownie. Finally, top of your day with a spray tan from Palm Beach Tan. Ask for "The Julie Kit". I love spray tans- I fear the sun, so this is the perfect way for me to get a beautiful glow. Plus, i always find the knowledge of the tanning team to be stellar.
She went viral for a Pre-K tactic. Some love it, others are pressed.
Bailey Norton is a stand up comedian in Los Angeles- formerly of Springfield, Missouri.
The Missouri native made the move a few years ago to chase her dream in comedy.
The former pre-school teacher recently took to twitter to express how she deals with the opposite sex when offered toxic emotions.
When men raise their voice at you, just go “oh buddy, big feelings!” and that should help
— Bailey Norton (@baileyenorton) May 31, 2022
The tweet quickly went viral. When asked, Bailey said that the tweeted comment was a tactic she used with her pre-school kids to acknowledge their emotions.
The comment, however, sent twitter into a frenzy. Bailey utilized the responses to create a now viral tik tok.
