The Carson City Classic Cinema Club released its 2019 movie schedule Tuesday with an impressive list of treasured films — including Academy Award winners — representing some of the most notable movies in history, with genres that range from comedies to westerns, suspense, science fiction to hard-hitting dramas.

The Christmas spirit is very present around Carson City these days with just over two weeks remaining before the big day.

You better watch out, you better not cry, you better not pout, I'm telling you why: Because Santa Claus is coming to Carson City!

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas in the Nevada state capital, and there is no shortage of holiday events and activities to make the season bright.

With winter weather having arrived, it seems only appropriate the last Friday of November is when Carson City celebrates the holiday season in a big way by ringing in the spirit of giving with the annual Silver and Snowflakes Festival of Lights.

In this week's edition of It's Your City host Cortney Bloomer sits down with Michele Van Geel of Wild Horse Children's Theater Company to talk about the upcoming Carson City performances of "Mary Poppins Jr."

“Let’s Go Fly a Kite!” Wild Horse Children’s Theater presents the Northern Nevada premiere of Disney and Cameron Mackintosh’s "Mary Poppins, Jr." With unforgettable songs, breathtaking dance numbers and an irresistible story, this magical family-musical is “practically perfect” for the start of the holiday season. "Mary Poppins, Jr." opens on Friday, Nov. 30 for 2 weekends only at the Brewery Arts Center Performance Hall in Carson City with two casts of incredibly talented local youth ages 5-18.

UPDATE: The film showing Tuesday night, Dec. 4 has been cancelled due to weather.
