Hundreds of writers, editors and publishers have gathered for PEN America’s annual gala hosted by Amber Ruffin and featuring a tribute to actor-publisher Sarah Jessica Parker.

Sarah Jessica Parker will be this year’s recipient of PEN America’s “Literary Service” award.

Movie reviewer Greg Russell shares his thoughts on “Sidney,” “Bros,” “Hocus Pocus 2,” and “The Greatest Beer Run”

This week’s new entertainment releases include albums from Björk and Broadway's "Into the Woods,” the reunion of Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker and Kathy Najimy in “Hocus Pocus 2” and a Showtime documentary about Sinéad O’Connor.

It’s a sequel to the 1993 Halloween classic “Hocus Pocus” and will premiere exclusively on Disney+ on Sept. 30, 2022.
