“Hager and Oden’s impromptu fencing scene is beautifully choreographed”

“So Charlotte came calling, and I think I had one day to decide if this is going to be the next adventure for us or [not] because the transfer window was closing … we ended up saying ‘You know, eff it, let’s go for an adventure across the big sea.” - Jere Uronen

From humble beginnings in Turku, Finland, Jere Uronen has become an international pro-football player and Charlotte FC's defense player.

Check out Jesse Boykin Kimmel’s latest review: Lee Street theatre’s “Moon Over Buffalo.”

“Directed by Michelle Medina Villalon, Moon Over Buffalo has what it takes to fire on all cylinders. The set up is fun, and there is individual promise in opening performances from Alice Rich as Charlotte Hay, and Shelby Annas and Debbie Hubbard-Pastore in the roles of the Hays’ daughter Rosalind and Charlotte’s mother Ethel.”

Despite some missed beats, "Buffalo" has what it takes to fire on all cylinders and deliver zany laughs.

The NFL season may have come to an end, but there is still a chance to experience a little more of the glory in Salisbury.

Lombardi, now on stage at Lee Street theatre, tells the story of the legendary Green Bay Packers coach over the course of a critical week in the 1965 season. Written by Eric Simonson, a playwright with a penchant for sports narratives, this show is sure to entertain football aficionados and initiates alike.

"Lombardi" is sure to entertain football aficionados and rookies alike.

Across a 160-year gap, Confederates tells the stories of Sara, an enslaved woman in her twenties in the American south, and Sandra, a political science professor at a present-day Ivy League university.

With some humor, Dominique Morriseau’s 2020 play illustrates how the systems we are bound to trick us out of trust and intimacy, and how internalized racism and sexism both drive paranoia and isolation. With no shortage of sincerity, Confederates also insists we confront these challenges together or risk living apart.

As first reported by Italian football journalist Alfredo Pedullà, Polish striker Karol Świderski is set to depart MLS and join Serie A side Hellas Verona.

Earlier today, Polish football journalist Tomasz Włodarczyk reported Charlotte’s most successful Designated Player will undergo medical tests in Italy on Thursday. If the deal is not official yet, but if it follows standard procedure a final contract will be signed after the medical exam.

Charlotte FC has declined to comment on the reports.

Currently, Hellas Verona is in a battle to escape relegation. Less than two weeks ago, their key striker Cyril Ngonge signed with Napoli, and they sit in a precarious position on the table - they’re currently 16th, but only escape the relegation zone due to the goal difference tiebreaker.

Charlotte FC's all-time leading scorer finally gets the ticket back to European football.

Last night, the Charlotte Mecklenburg Planning Commission’s Zoning Committee voted 5-2 to recommend denial of petition 2023-129, which would add two 1,880 ft² “Wells Fargo” signs to 550 S. Tryon St.

By comparison, the Truist signage added to the former Hearst Tower is 980 ft².

Initially built for Wachovia, the building became the headquarters of Duke Energy after the 2008 financial crisis and the acquisition of Wachovia by Wells Fargo. Duke Energy has now moved across the street and since Wells retained ownership, they want to add branding as they move back in.

The rezoning petition now goes to City Council for a vote.
