A wildly entertaining creative collaboration between TV’s “Opie Taylor” and Obi- Wan’s creator, “Willow” is the next big-screen offering at the historic 7th Street Theatre in downtown Hoquiam, on Friday and Saturday, September 18 and 19, at 7:30 pm.
The 1988 movie starts with a story by “Star Wars” godfather George Lucas about a baby destined to defeat an evil queen, and the rag-tag band of unlikely (and frequently hilarious) heroes — dwarf, swordsman, sorceress and bumbling brownies — who take up her quest. The tale comes to life through the directorial vision of Ron Howard, “Opie” from the 1960s “Andy Griffith Show” and eventual Best Director and Best Picture Oscar winner for “A Beautiful Mind” in 2002.
Val Kilmer and Joanne Whalley head the cast, with the dwarf Willow played by then 18-year-old Warwick Davis, who went on to appear in several “Harry Potter“ films as well as way too many “Leprechaun” horror flicks.
Doors open at 7:00 p.m. for the 7:30 p.m. showings. Tickets will be available at the door. Advance tickets are available at Harbor Drug in Hoquiam, City Drug in Aberdeen and at online at brownpapertickets.com.

The Global Entrepreneurship Week: Business Kickoff Event will offer aspiring entrepreneurs free information, resources, support, and inspiration needed to successfully start a business. Participants will receive a specialized form that will assist in organizing the information available at this event. This form will keep track of who they’ve spoken to, services that are useful to them specifically, and how to get in contact with those resources at a future date.
After an hour or so of informational browsing, there will be a brief speech offered by a local entrepreneur sharing some of the hardships and successes they’ve experienced while starting and developing their business.
After that will be additional time to gather information, and finishing the evening off with a free drawing for a prize basket.
