Staging Journeys is located at the Philadelphia School of Circus Arts. We are so excited to be sharing this beautiful space and
Friday Production: January 17 – June 12 (18 rehearsals)
4:45 – 7:00 Original Theater Performance and Production
With this project, we will focus on the theater driving the music as we explore the theme of home and belonging.
- Ages 8-15
- Performances Friday, June 12 at 7pm and Sunday, June 14 at 6pm.
- No rehearsals February 14, April 3, April 10, May 15
- Tuition: $230 per student ($25 discount for siblings)
This project is inspired in part by the poem Where I’m From, by George Ella Lyon.
Philly community members will be invited to rehearsals to share personal stories about home and belonging, and we will use these stories to create original scenes. Songs and personal writings from young people will join the stories together to create a theatrical production as rich and warm as the communities we are from! Our process for making theater will be highly collaborative as we seek to use improvisation, personal reflection, scene development, storytelling, and music to build devised theater together.
MAJORS: The major is the area your child MOST wants to focus on in this project. Select your major on the registration form. All participants will be involved in the creation of the story and chorus numbers.
ACTING: Concentrate on fine-tuning acting skills, stage presence, and line delivery. Bigger acting parts will go to people in this group.
SINGING: Concentrate on music, learn harmonies, basic vocal techniques, choral and solo singing.
DESIGN/TECH: Concentrate on the design of set and costumes. Choose to have mostly behind-the-scenes jobs and/or choose to sing in the main chorus songs.
It is a fundamental SJ goal to keep the cost of tuition on the low end so that we can be accessible to more families in our community. If you are able, please consider making a donation to our scholarship fund on the registration form. We offer scholarships for all of our productions.
Staging Journeys’ goal in youth theater is to bring young people of various backgrounds and ages together to share their stories, their messages, and their talents on the stage, creating original works by children for their community.

Exploring Space With Your Computer (Again)
In April 2009, I contributed to the International Year of Astronomy daily podcast series with a podcast called "Exploring Space With Your Computer." It featured audio dramatizations of a mission to Europa and the final seconds of the Apollo 11 moon landing, as simulated in the free Orbiter spaceflight simulator. It also discussed the free planetarium program Stellarium and a few other free tools for exploring space from the comfort of your computer keyboard. I used sound effects from Orbiter and also wrote and recorded a spacey-sounding musical soundtrack for the podcast. It was fun to do.
The daily astronomy podcast program has continued beyond 2009, and today "Exploring Space With Your Computer" is being featured as a "classic" thanks to someone's unexpected cancellation. It's nice to be featured, even as a rerun. I posted a set of Orbiter screenshots illustrating my simulated space adventures on Flickr. You can read more about the podcast (including web links) in this 2009 blog post. The podcast series is continuing into 2012 - maybe I'll even find time to do a new podcast next year.

Music is Poetry
Music is the poetry of the air. ~Richter
|
Image: FreeDigitalPhotos.net
|
Music inspires me to write, especially poetry. Music itself is poetry. Not one certain song or genre, but music in it's entirety. Flowing rhythmically from the instruments, plucked from the fingertips of an artist; chords float on the wind. The melodies grasp me; singing to me... calling me forth into a trance. Capturing my attention and penetrating my mind, I feel it pulse through my body. Lyrics probe the depths of my emotions, toying with them. Teasing me with a temporary joy... or depression. Absorbing the words, clinging onto the chorus; they mold themselves around my life. For the length of the song... they become me; sometimes lingering for a moment after. It takes ahold of me to a point that I'm moved to write a piece that compares in beauty.
Taking on a life of it's own when released into the world; it has the power to change... to heal. Music has the power to impress its self upon you... your life will never be the same.
"The birds like leaves on Winterwood,
Sing hopeful songs on dismal days.
They've learned to live life as they should.
They are at peace with natures ways.
You are as natural as the night,
And all that springs from you is good.
And the children born beneath your light,
Are like the birds on Winterwood. "~Don McLean's Winterwood~
Music is a part of who I am. It flows through my veins caressing my heart. Ingrained into my brain; etched into my skin. Words spill from my lips; then when put to music... it's pure ecstasy. A world without music or poetry will no longer be a world worth living.
Without music life would be a mistake. ~Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche

After reading your words at the top I said Wow, then I read your post and it's a double wow. The lyrical quality of your words struck me. Just beautiful.ReplyDelete
Thank you! I try to keep the same "voice" in whatever I write wether it's poetry or just thoughts.Delete
Eloquent and strong. I love the beautiful imagery you create. I can feel the music you write about through your words. Very well done.ReplyDelete
Thank you! I really appreciate your comments.Delete
I love the connection you make here between music and writing! I come from a hugely musical family, so it has always been a part of just about everything I do. (I don't know if you watch "New Girl" but the main character, Jess's, whole "I'm going to randomly break into song" thing? Totally stolen from me!) In all seriousness, though, I think it tells us something very important about the nature of writing as art that it can be so strongly linked to music, and art (painting/photography/etc.)--it tells me that despite what some of the naysayers naysay, it *is* art! :) Thanks for this post!ReplyDelete
Thank you for the comment! I too come from a very musical family. I didn't get any of the musical talent, but I did get the writing talent which is also very strong.I was taught to appreciate all kinds of music when growing up. Like you, I know it's all art and goes hand in hand, I've witnessed it happening!Delete
Music and lyrics capture my attention and penetrate my mind. Very nice sentiment. Indeed. I couldn't agree more. Nice post.ReplyDelete
Thank you for the awesome comment!I'm glad you enjoyed the post.Delete
"Flowing rhythmically from the instruments, plucked from the fingertips of an artist; chords float on the wind. " - love it :) You didn't have to even mention you write poetry as it is so evident :)ReplyDelete
Thank you for the awesome comment and for stopping by to read!Delete

Happy Days by Samuel Beckett is a classical masterpiece which is performed all around the world with controversial success.
Our Happy Days is not just a play. Beckett’s desire to banish dialogue and action develops into a huge unacknowledged emptiness revealed by the two characters. Just another happy day. Two people, a couple. Two spaces, their lives. Their hopes and their marriage, a bag and a gun. So little to say, so little to do.
Created, directed and performed by Samuele Caldognetto and Bethany Thompson
Creative team: Alessandro Berellini, Kjell Philström and Miriam Ventura

At risk of offending my regular readership, I have a confession to make:
I am a Britney Spears fan.
And I like her new album.
The tracks on Circus - with the exception of the repackaged Radar from her Blackout album - are current, catchy and marketable to the club scene and Top 40 radio.
I've heard Circus at least a half dozen times since I purchased the standard edition on Thursday. (The deluxe edition is on its way.) Womanizer, Kill the Lights, and Unusual You stood out as the highlights to me. The first track, Womanizer, is pure Britney, complete with scandalous music video; Kill the Lights seems reminiscent of her current opening act, The Pussycat Dolls; and Unusual You has a new-age feel that is unique to Britney's recent offerings.
Two tracks on the album -- Out from Under and If You Seek Amy -- appear to allude to previous relationships, the former with Justin Timberlake and the latter with Kevin Federline. The lyrics from Out from Under read as an attempt at closure while If You Seek Amy broadcasts as an angst-filled breakup song.
I might be in the minority, but the song Circus seems like a miss. It's likely to show up in concert though, because early reports on the upcoming tour show a center-ring configuration. Circus fits the bill in that case. Mmm Papi and Blur are the weaker tracks. I wouldn't miss either of these if they weren't played live.
For the record, Blackout was a solid offering last year. Unfortunately, Britney was in no shape to promote it. It is encouraging to see that she is planning a full tour in support of Circus.


Sylvia Vandenbossche produced several masterpieces during her long career as a costume designer, but experts agree her tour de force was her wardrobe for the opera La Gorgone, and this gown in particular.
La Gorgone is an opera fantastique by Philippe Nyström based on classic works of mythology, especially Ovid's Metamorphoses. It follows the story of the famous snake-headed creature Medusa, depicting her as a tragic figure who lost her beauty, humanity, and her will to love and be loved.
Nyström wished the music to describe this transition, and insisted the rest of the production did the same. Sylvia Vandenbossche designed four costumes for Medusa, one for each act, that became more otherworldly as the narration moved forward. The gown above represented the full transformation of the character into a monster in the fourth act.
Vandenbossche and her collaborator, seamstress Berthe Dumont, borrowed techniques from puppetry to ideate a clever wire undergarment that allowed the gown's snakes to come to life as the singer moved across the stage. The result was so staggering, Nyström himself described the gown as a living entity.
This gown is also unique because it's only been worn but once, by the soprano Isabelle Ekdahl, the first ever Medusa. A quick piece of trivia: Sylvia Vandenbossche doubled her fee when she found out Madame Ekdahl's casting, due to the diva's infamous fastidiousness when it came to her on-stage presence.
Contrary to popular opinion, vanity never guided Madame Ekdahl; excruciating perfectionism did. She understood everything surrounding a production, from the stage design to her costumes (even her shoes) could heighten or hinder her performance. And she acted accordingly.
Madame's rigorousness nourished her career, but also made her incapable of savoring her success, as it also fueled her everlasting and biggest fear: losing her audience.
- Dahlia Andersen-Silva, The Life of Isabelle Ekdahl (1982)
La Gorgone opened at the Zurich Opera House in 1900 to great trepidation. During the last act, Isabelle Ekdahl executed the aria Ton Cœur Est Froid Comme Du Marbre (Your Heart Is Cold as Marble) to perfection, arguably one of the most difficult arias in opera history.
The soprano was shocked when she received no ovation. She would've stormed off in disappointment if she hadn't noticed Marco Santini's (Perseus) stiff pose and expression, and the sudden silence that had taken hold of the orchestra and the whole auditorium.
Hours later, the authorities found Isabelle Ekdahl fainted on the stage and a theatre full of people who suffered from a strange case of paralysis. After 24 hours, the alarming enrapture faded away without any grave consequences to anybody's health, though the event startled Madame Ekdahl so, she retired the next day.
No one dared to perform La Gorgone until 1973, when it inaugurated the season of the Metropolitan Opera in New York. Fortunately, nothing extraordinary tainted that performance, and Nyström's piece reclaimed its importance as one of the most fascinating operas ever composed.
Since then, several companies had tried to borrow Sylvia Vandenbossche's gown from the Ravensfield Collection for new renditions of La Gorgone. The Ravensfield family has always refused, and this iconic dress has never left its glass case since its donation by the Zurich Opera in 1905—a sight to behold and a visitors' favorite to this day.


“Mount Auburn Cemetery: Spring and Autumn Suites” is an album of twelve original compositions inspired by the beautiful Mount Auburn Cemetery of Cambridge, MA, USA. The works were composed by Mount Auburn Cemetery artist-in-residence Mary Bichner, an orchestral composer with the music “superpowers” of perfect pitch and synesthesia (a condition that causes here to “see” splashes of specific colors when she hears their corresponding pitches sounded).
In the first year of her residency, Mary composed twelve new works inspired by Mount Auburn Cemetery’s breathtaking landscape and landmarks, using her sound-to-color synesthesia to select the musical components that best “match” the natural color palette of each location at different times of year. The finished collection consists of a six-movement Spring Suite and a six-movement Autumn Suite that, when played in order, also takes place over the course of a single day (sunrise to sunset).
The suites contain both vocal and instrumental works. Of the voice-based pieces, all but one are musical settings of poems written by poets buried at Mount Auburn Cemetery (Maria White Lowell, James Russell Lowell, Frances Sargent Osgood, and Henry Wadsworth Longfellow). The remaining vocal work is a musical setting of a poem by Emily Dickinson who, while not buried at Mount Auburn, is classified by the archives department as one of the cemetery’s Notable Visitors.
In January of 2017, the works were recorded by a 19-piece chamber orchestra at WGBH Studios of Boston MA, and were released online as a digital album on June 3rd, 2017. The tracks are also featured in Mount Auburn’s new mobile app, so that visitors to the cemetery will be able to experience the music in the setting that inspired it.
Mount Auburn Cemetery was founded in 1831 as the United States’ first rural cemetery. In addition to being a “National Historic Landmark, a botanical garden, an outdoor museum of art and architecture, and an important habitat for urban wildlife”, Mount Auburn is also a strong supporter of the arts. Filmmaker and multi-media artist Roberto Mighty, MFA, the cemetery’s first artist-in-residence, recently launched the online edition of his commissioned work “earth.sky”: a “site-specific, multi-screen digital multimedia installation based on the landscape of the cemetery and the stories of some of the 98,000 people buried there”. Mount Auburn is also home to “A Glimpse Beyond”, an immersive performing arts experience featuring musicians, dancers, and artists that challenges viewers to “reexamine [their] ideas about life and death, joy and sorrow”.
released June 3, 2017
Composed and arranged by Mary Bichner. Conducted by Kristo Kondakçi. Performed by Katharina Giegling (concertmaster), Sonia Deng (violin), Abby Swidler (violin), Christopher McClain (viola I principal, viola soloist), Minjung Chun (viola I), Carrol Lee (viola II principal), Foxman James (viola II), Aron Zelkowicz (cello principal), Nash Tomey (contrabass principal), Arielle Burke (flute), Elizabeth England (oboe), David Angelo (clarinet), Susannah Telsey (bassoon), Evanangelia Leontis (soprano), Mary Bichner (alto), Mali Sastri (tenor), Seth Grondin (bass [vocals]) and Paul Jacobs (piano).

It's been a very good year for Dr. Dre . First, he masterminded the Up In Smoke package tour, one of hip-hop's most successful tours ever. Fans who weren't fortunate enough to witness the live performances of Dre, Eminem , Snoop Dogg , Ice Cube , and Xzibit on the tour now have the opportunity to buy an Up In Smoke DVD, which also features exclusive backstage footage.
His own Aftermath record label also released his long-awaited follow-up to The Chronic , Dr. Dre 2001 , which has sold more than 6 million units to date. Aftermath also dropped Eminem's sophomore album, The Marshall Mathers LP , which has sold more than 7 million copies. Meanwhile, No Limit released Snoop Dogg's Tha Last Meal , which features Dre's production and mixing talents on several cuts, and Loud Records released Xzibit's Restless , which Dre executive-produced; sales expectations for both albums are very high.
"I have definitely had a good year," Dre admits, as he sits in his trailer during the video shoot for "X," Xzibit's first single. "It's cool."
Dre seems surprised by the hoopla surrounding his affiliation with Xzibit. "I didn't know [ Restless ] was the most highly anticipated record," he says incredulously. "I knew people were waiting to hear it and sh-t. I didn't know it was like that. That's cool. That's good sh-t. He's a good guy. He deserves it."
Just how did Dre become so intrinsically involved in the making of Xzibit's album? "He just asked me," Dre chuckles. "It wasn't no big decision-making process. He came to the studio and asked me if I would executive-produce his record, and I said, 'Yeah.' We started blueprinting it out, coming up with a plan of how we were going to do it."
This hip-hop veteran may have started out as a member of the legendary Compton rap group N.W.A. , but now he's as famous for his production skills as he is for his own music. This creative genius and savvy businessman is quick to shed some light on the difference between executive-producing an album and producing a song:
"A lot people just figure that they can pay for the record, and get the title of 'executive production' when that's not the case," he explains. "Executive-producing, in my mind, is helping pick the tracks, maybe producing some of the tracks, really being hands-on with the actual music: my saying, 'Xzibit, that track you got from so-and-so is not hot, let's use this track over here from so-and-so. Maybe you should rhyme about this.' Just basically helping put the record together. A lot of records have come out that have executive production credits on them, and it's just people paying for studio time--if that. Producing [on the other hand], is going into the studio and directing a record from bottom to top. My producing a record is my starting from the first hi-hat 'til the mix is done."
As soon as Dre produces a record, he knows whether it's going to be a hit or not. "I have to feel it," he says with an earnest gleam in his eyes, adding with a laugh, "I get this little tingling sensation in my balls and sh-t. Then I know it's right."
So how does Dre think his latest production protégé will sell? Is he getting that familiar tingling sensation? "I think [ Restless ] is going to do well," he predicts. "[Xzibit] will probably do 2 or 3 million copies off of this album, but the next album is going to be the one to look for. I guess I can compare it to Eminem. His first album grabbed everybody's attention; the next one, his album that is out right now, is going to sell 10 to 12 million albums."
Dre has a reputation for being a perfectionist in the studio, and he doesn't deny that. He confirms this assessment with a nod and one word: "Definitely." However, the artists who have worked with him don't seem to mind his perfectionism, considering his track record.
"There is definitely a high standard when you walk into the studio," Xzibit assures. "It's not as strict and straight-up as everybody thinks--it is a work environment, but it's relaxed and impromptu. He works with actual live musicians. You go in with more of a vibe, then once you get a direction going, you put the pieces together."
Eve has been in the studio with Dre working on tunes for her second album, Scorpion , dropping on Ruff Ryders/Interscope on February 20. "We never worked closely before," says the platinum-selling hip-hop diva, who was once signed to Aftermath before eventually signing to the Ruff Ryders ' label, which released her debut, Let There Be Eve...Ruff Ryders' First Lady . "I did one song [with Dre], and I am going back to L.A. to do one more. He wanted me to come up with a certain type of flow. He's really involved as far as how I flow--not so much my words, but my bounce on the track. It's great. He's very creative, and he's very excited about the project, so it's been real good energy."
It will be a challenge for Dre to top the year 2000. In 2001, he'll be turning his attention to some R&B projects, including Truth Hurts, a St. Louis-based R&B songstress signed to Aftermath. He'll also lend his production to some up-and-coming rap acts on a new West Coast rap label called L.A. Confidential.
However, despite all this outside activity, it doesn't seem like fans will have to wait too long for his next solo album. "The Internet's going to be the concept for my next album," Dre says, a surprising revelation considering his lawsuit against Napster in early 2000. "I'm probably going to start on it in summer 2001, and it's probably going to take me 10 months to a year to make the record right."
Seems like for Dre, it'll indeed be 2001: A Musical Odyssey...

When he and his best friend end up in the Big Guys cabin with his sister’s boyfriend Steve it seems that the summer is ruined. Soon Cheesie and Steve are embroiled in a Cool Duel where there is a vote each day as to which does the coolest thing. Does Cheesie stand a chance? This book is hilariously funny!

The best thing is that Cheesie will actually answer back! I eagerly await the next book due in 2013!

Vinyl is making a huge comeback, with sales of records doubling in 2013.
Retinal is a new independent record label specialising in releasing electronic, dance, indie and acoustic sounds on vinyl.
The mastering process for vinyl allows the music to ‘breathe’ and the dynamics to be heard, rather than the digital process which concentrates on loudness but can squish the life out of the music. The physical characteristics of vinyl make for a warm, heavy sound.
For artists, having a vinyl record on sale gives your followers a chance to own a piece of your work, something they can hold in their hand, feel, see and hear – a way of showing love for the sounds they cherish.
It’s for these reasons that record sales are at their highest level for 15 years,* with under-25s the driving force behind the surge. What goes around comes around.
*according to figures from the British Phonographic Industry (BPI) and the Official Charts Company.

Part of an incredibly ambitious, years-in-the-making project, this is just the first volume of a series of novels that will all take place during the combustible Weimar era of the titular city. Drawn with clean lines and an attention to architectural detail that pays homage to such European comics as Hergé's "Tintin," City of Stones follows a young woman art student who starts an affair with a weary leftist journalist against a background of boiling politics and decadence. Filled with rich characters and period detail, even if the follow-up books never come, it will still be one of the premier works of historical fiction in the medium.
This semi-autobiographical novel set in the snowy hinterlands of Wisconsin tells the story of a lonely, artistic young man who struggles with his fundamentalist Christian upbringing when he falls in love. Fluidly told over 582 pages, Blankets magically recreates the high emotional stakes of adolescence. Thompson has set new bars for the medium not just in length, but breadth.
One of the best-selling graphic novels of all time, this black comedy version of Batman's latter days masterfully combines satire with superhero antics without betraying it's central character's core of danger. Along with Alan Moore & Dave Gibbon's Watchmen, it redefined the concept of "superhero," and helped spark the first wave of "serious" interest in comics.
Although best known for his book Ghost World, thanks to the movie version, Dan Clowes' David Boring, about a guy in search of a woman while the world may be ending, marked his first truly novelistic approach to graphical storytelling. Peerless in his ability to create offbeat characters and write sardonic humor, Clowes has lately gotten more experimental in his form, but David Boring remains his most readable and unified book.
The most perfect novel yet seen in this format, Ware innovates in form and in content to create a uniquely American story, both tragic and gut-splittingly funny. Neither smart nor a kid, Jimmy reunites with his long-lost dad, finds him a great disappointment, and discovers an African-American sister he never knew about. Confronting race, history, and family this book proved incontrovertibly that the form could be as deep and complex as any prose novel.
A kind of über graphic novel that collects a series of smaller graphic novels all situated in a small town "somewhere south of the U.S. border," this giant tome by a seminal comic artist will likely be the author's magnum opus. Part of the creative team behind the deeply influential "Love and Rockets" comic book series (along with his equally talented brother Jaime) Gilbert has created a pan-American epic that spans multiple generations of a family run almost exclusively by women. Hernandez' Palomar combines the look of Archie comics with Faulkner's richness of character and place into the melodramatic sweep of a sexy soap opera to create one of the most remarkable works of any narrative art.

I never really took her that seriously until this video. I think the video for Style is definitely a step up for her in regards to artistic expression, and while many viewers have commented that they think the video does not match the song, I disagree.
I love this video! I love the concept and the interchanges that occur between Taylor and model Dominic Sherwood, even thought most of the video does not have them physically interacting. It’s more about the ‘connection’ the couple has and how strong it is when they’re not with each other, just as strong as when they are. This is illustrated clearly with the use of mirrors and projections of each other, on each other.
Taylor starts off the video with a profile view, but with the silhouette of her head changing into a view of Dominic, it insinuates that she has him on her mind. I find this a clever way of saying something without saying anything at all.
The projecting of memories of each other on their bodies continues to reiterate the ‘oneness’ of their relationship as, while looking at Taylor in the video, you’re looking at Dominic, and vice versa…
Not to mention Dominic is my kind of guy (hot!) and his one brown eye/one blue eye (Heterochromia) is so cute! The whole video is ethereal, dream-like, haunting and more like a synopsis of a CW storyline all wrapped up in under 5 minutes. For a young, successful, talented singer/songwriter such as Taylor Swift, I think this artistic direction suits her well.
The nod to Harry Style’s paper plane pendant twice in the video suggest Taylor may have once again written this song about her ex. So was Taylor Swift channeling emotions she felt about Harry Styles (of One Direction) in the video while Dominic Sherwood channeled his feelings for Sarah Hayland (of Modern Family fame)?
Directed by Kyle Newman, the video has little details that, although aren’t hidden, are easy to miss unless you watch the video intently. What do you think of Taylor Swift’s new style of video? While many say it’s Taylor trying too hard to portray a more grown up version of herself, I say as she’s been in the music business for a decent amount of years now, I think she doesn’t have to ‘try’, she just does Taylor.

Today Patrick O’Laoghaire a.k.a I Have A Tribe released his debut EP, Yellow Raincoats. The title track, which premiered a few weeks back on The Line Of Best Fit, is a follow up from 2013’s Monsoon which gained praise from the likes of NME, Notion and Pigeons & Planes.
I Have A Tribe spent a busy 2013 recording the ‘Yellow Raincoats’ EP with Rob Ellis and Conor O’Brien of Villagers, touring Europe with Anna Calvi, opening for Villagers’ Irish homecoming show and performing shows at Electric Picnic and CMJ in New York. With the fruits of those EP sessions ripe and ready to reveal this spring, I Have A Tribe’s blend of plaintive pop and folk-tinged melancholia has never been more evident than on the EP’s title track.

BHS Presents “All Shook Up” Musical
Basalt Education Foundation is pleased to support the musical-theatre program at Basalt High School with a $5,000 donation this year. Here’s the scoop on this year’s student musical, All Shook Up.
When Brittany von Stein took the job as the Basalt High School choir director last year, she knew she wanted to produce a spring musical that allowed plenty of students to shine.
“I’d heard there would be a lot of talented kids who would audition for the show,” said von Stein. “I went with All Shook Up, because it has multiple lead roles. Plus, the supporting ensemble is just as important as the leads. Every single character helps to tell the story.”
The story is set in 1955 and focuses on an Elvis-inspired “roustabout” named Chad, who rolls into a town under the rule of an uptight mayor. In addition to instigating several mixed-up love stories, he shakes up the staid scene with a whole lot of rock and roll, namely 25 of Elvis’ greatest hits performed by the cast of 24 — from upbeat “Jailhouse Rock” to poignant “Can’t Help Falling in Love.”
The lead role of lip-curling Chad is portrayed by BHS senior Miguel Fabela in his very first theater production ever. “He’s only off stage a total of about 10 minutes,” said producer and music director von Stein. “But he’s totally risen to the occasion. He’s become that character.”
Marisa Post, who has long directed plays and musicals in the valley and serves as All Shook Up‘s director and choreographer, agreed: “Miguel is quite a talent. Though he’s new to the stage, his instincts are so natural, even without instruction. It’s been such a joy to see him go from, ‘I don’t know if I can handle this’ to completely comfortable in the show.”
Post admits she wasn’t familiar with “All Shook Up” before being approached by von Stein to direct the musical. “After reading it I was charmed by the exploration of Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night and Elvis’ lyrics,” she said. “I said yes to the job before I even met Brittany in person. From day one, when we started chatting on the phone, I knew it was a good union.”
Von Stein is quick to praise for Post’s expertise. “We’ve got a 40-year age spread between us,” said von Stein, who graduated from Ohio State University with a music education degree in 2015. “But we complement each other really well. She comes in with so much knowledge from years of experience, and I am able to share a fresh approach to things.”
Von Stein credits Post for holding the two dozen student performers to a high standard. “She expects conservatory-quality performances, and the cast has totally stepped up.”
While half the cast is new to performing in high-school musicals, the line-up does feature some key veterans, including senior Courtney Aitken in her fourth BHS musical production. She plays tomboyish, yet hopeful romantic, Natalie opposite Chad. “Courtney has been such a big help and a huge leader in bringing along all the newbies,” said von Stein.
Aitken, who plans to pursue a theatre career after high school, said she’s enjoying All Shook Up for the same reason von Stein chose this particular musical: the unusual number of lead roles. “It’s been so fun watching everyone transform themselves into someone completely different when they step on stage.”
Adds Miguel Fabela, who plays motorcycle-driving Chad: “It’s been quite a ride.”
All Shook Up takes place at Basalt Middle School auditorium Thursday, March 10, 7pm; Friday March 11, 7pm; Saturday March 12, 2pm and 7pm. Cost is $8 students; $12 adults.

Nicole Monroe is a girl with a guitar, a voice, and stories to share. The quirky, New York native began writing as an outlet for a shy and disconnected 13-year-old, finding a way to relate to others while voicing her thoughts and opinions through song. Most of her teenage years were spent recording tapes of original songs in her parents’ Long Island home, sharing them with friends and handing them out at local Open Mic events. She states, “I had always been drawn to the emotion behind everything–be it a song, a movie, sometimes even a news article,” and she has a knack for eloquently expressing emotion through her art. Audiences from Boston, Massachusetts down to Charlotte, North Carolina have experienced the joy, fear, and pain in every word and chord when Monroe performs.
In 2005, Nicole took a grassroots approach and self-engineered/ produced a five-song acoustic EP entitled Notebooks and Pencils, which was predominantly sold at live shows. She has now released her sophomore EP, Just A Kid with Sharon Road West Music. Just A Kid is a collection of artistic rock songs that draws listeners in with engaging musical arrangements and hard-hitting lyrics. First-time listeners will experience an emotional ebb and flow throughout the EP and Monroe wastes no time introducing them to her craft when hitting play. While fans may be accustomed to the mellow, acoustic performer, she and Nashville Producer Sean Power (John Hampson, Blake Lewis), deliver a new, full-band sound on this record.
Nicole’s passion does not end with music. She is a big advocate for charitable work and is donating a percentage of proceeds from Just A Kid to local Non-Profit Organizations that cater to the underserved.

Blade of Victory is a 2D story-driven turn-based RPG featuring pixel art. The game is mostly inspired by JRPGs such as the Persona (for its gameplay) and Final Fantasy Tactics (for its world and story). The game will take place in a original medieval fantasy world, with all the sword and sorcery it implies (no orcs/elves/dwarves though). The plot will focus on themes such as duty, power, politics and betrayal, and we hope to make it one of the strong points of the game.

When I think of Las Vegas, I think of an all-out experience filled with excitement and no one to tell me what the responsible thing to do is. There are endless games to play, free drinks and more shows and shopping than one lifetime can accomplish. Well, you don't have to be irresponsible to play the Vegas Trip version of blackjack, and a consistent player will have a chance to really make a killing with this version.
What makes the Vegas Trip version so different than the classic versions of blackjack has to do with the splitting and doubling. If you find yourself with a pair, you are allowed to split, including both face and value pairs. If you are dealt another set of pairs, you are allowed to split again, up to 4 hands! Remember, in order to split, you must also be able to double your original bet for your new split hand.
Doubling is allowed to players on any two cards! While the classic versions of blackjack require you to have 9,10, 11, Vegas Trip will let you decide when you can double down. To double your bet, place your chips next to your initial bet amount. By the rules of Vegas Trip, you are even allowed to double after re-splitting.
Mentioned above are some of the great differences between the classic and Vegas Trip versions of blackjack. In general, the rest of the rules are the same. There are still 4 decks used with 52 cards in each deck. If you win with a Blackjack, then you are paid 3 to 2, and all other wins are paid 2 to 1. The dealer is still going to play strictly by the house strategy and will always stand on a 17.
With a game that has the potential to raise the bet so high with just one hand, you should know that there is no surrender in Vegas Trip and if you decide that insurance is a good idea, it pays 2 to 1. The trick to playing a good game of Vegas Trip blackjack, is to keep your head about you. The basic strategy and card counting systems that you have worked so hard to internalize must still be used consistently. Remember that, and you will have a blast with this version of blackjack.


Film Sprout bridges the divide between filmmakers who have created socially-driven documentaries and the communities that eagerly want to come together to experience them. Founder Caitlin Boyle grew her own experience into one that has helped countless films connect with viewers outside of the traditional distribution model.
“In the end, we’re primarily interested in whether a film stirs the passions and emotions of regular, lay audiences—teachers, parents, community activists.”
Who decides what films you get to see? Unless you live in a city where there are off-the-radar independent film organizations like Rooftop Films or Outfest, your options are essentially at the whim of major film companies' distribution teams to decide which movies to pick up and release in theaters. What if a documentary film has a particularly challenging or even subversive theme? Chances are only those lucky enough to attend the film festival circuit, or know the filmmakers, will get to see it.
Such was the scenario of Caitlin Boyle, seeing her future husband Curt Ellis and his partners move into post-production on their 'buddy-flick/corn-industry-expose' King Corn in 2007. "As the film opened in select art house and independent cinemas," Caitlin remembers, "the filmmaking team and I noticed there was a huge, untapped groundswell of demand from folks outside the major theatrical markets and metropolitan centers. And we realized that we had no organized platform or infrastructure for bringing them the film."
Inspired by the way grassroots organizations were embracing the documentary, she set out to correct that gap by creating an organized and accessible way for community groups to present the film. "By responding to—and eventually proactively courting—the interest and enthusiasm of nonprofit groups, educators, activists and community advocates, I helped to expand King Corn’s public reach from about 60 art house cinemas to more than 200 community-sponsored exhibitions held nationwide in about five months. All along the way, I earned direct revenue for the filmmakers, and paved the way for indirect revenues in the form of DVD sales."
Since then, Caitlin and her small team at Film Sprout have served ten feature documentaries, "and we’ve helped dozens of additional filmmakers who are spearheading community distribution platforms for their own projects, with our guidance," she prides.
Most importantly, Caitlin acts as a bridge between filmmakers and their audiences. "We’re increasingly living in a time when people get their entertainment and their news and their diversions alone and in private, but Film Sprout gives people an opportunity to do something a little more old-fashioned: to come together, in a physical space, around a story," she reflects. "Even as technology moves us in another direction, there’s still a powerful pull toward community and togetherness in the way we view media and communication and the way we work toward social change. "
