Next Week



North By Northwest

Wednesday • July 26 • 7:00pm
Way Back Wednesday at The Iowa Theater

This classic suspense film finds New York City ad executive Roger O. Thornhill (Cary Grant) pursued by ruthless spy Phillip Vandamm (James Mason) after Thornhill is mistaken for a government agent. Hunted relentlessly by Vandamm’s associates, the harried Thornhill ends up on a cross-country journey, meeting the beautiful and mysterious Eve Kendall (Eva Marie Saint) along the way. Soon Vandamm’s henchmen close in on Thornhill, resulting in a number of iconic action sequences. Not rated, 2 hr, 16 min


Live at the Iowa: Satomi Hofmann

Friday & Saturday • July 28 & 29 • 7:00pm
Master Class • July 30 • 11:00 – 1:00
Beer Choir • July 30 • 2:00 at The Drift with Madison County Music Co.

Satomi Hofmann, the corset-clad singer who delighted audiences in 2021 with her incredible vocal range, wildly entertaining stage-presence, and her ability to play the spoons (among other instruments), is back by popular demand, returning to Winterset next weekend to present two fundraising concerts for the Iowa Theater. The two performances will include music pulled from multiple genres including musical theater and Irish pub music, and will even feature a guest appearance by some local youth!

Ticket prices range from $100 and $75 for the best seats on the main floor and balcony, to a very affordable $25 for the back balcony, where acoustics are excellent. On Sunday Hofmann will also conduct a Master Class for aspiring vocalists, and will be the guest at the “Beer Choir” sing-along hosted by The Drift and Madison County Music Co.

Reserved seats can be purchased from the Iowa Theater online or in person any time the theater is open (Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday nights).

Planning Ahead

Get Registered for Flag Football

Registration Deadline July 30th
Winterset Parks & Recreation

Registration for Youth Flag Football is now open through Winterset Parks & Recreation. This league consists of 7 weeks of games and 5 weeks of practices prior to games starting. Games this year will be played on Saturday mornings, but kids are still encouraged to play both soccer and flag football—schedules will be arranged so the games don’t conflict.
