FROM THE EDITOR So, here we are in late July ... arguably the best time of the year to live in the state of Utah because we’re treated to what is essentially the sequel to the Fourth of July.

If you didn’t get enough fireworks and parades and cookouts and patriotism earlier in the month, then you’re blessed with another opportunity/ excuse on Pioneer Day to overeat, get severely sunburned and/or make an awful lot of noise late at night.

And since July 24 falls on a Sunday this year, we get to enjoy a three-day weekend. Which, if you live in Preston, practically turns into a two-day work week since That Famous Preston Night Rodeo kicks things off on Thursday.

Here’s a few of the larger events going on in the next few days: • The Little Bloomsbury Art Foundation is hosting its first-ever Ice Cream Summer Festival this week. It started Thursday and continues through Saturday. See the story beginning on Page 8 for more details.

• The annual Cache Valley Rendezvous is also up and running, much later than usual (it was previously held in

May) and in a new location (the American West Heritage Center in Wellsville).

Visit OEMM Cache Valley Rendezvous on Facebook for more information.

• Mendon puts together one of the best and most unique Pioneer Day celebrations in the Valley, and most of the events will be held on Saturday. Visit mendoncity.org for a full schedule.

• Logan (loganutah.org) and North Logan (ci.north-logan.ut.us) will both celebrate Pioneer Day in a big way throught the day on Monday.

Wagons ho! And don’t forget the sunscreen.

‘Beyond’ hits theaters just a month after tragic death

LOS ANGELES (AP) — When the “Star Trek Beyond” cast and filmmakers gathered in Los Angeles last month for Anton Yelchin’s funeral, they had a decision to make.

Their film, the third in the rebooted series, was coming out in less than a month and a rigorous press tour was imminent. They could either put themselves out there to promote the film in the raw and devastating weeks following the death of their beloved co-star, or they could withdraw.

“We came to the conclusion in the end (that) if we withdraw, we’re going to risk not helping a film that should be seen, not least because it stars Anton Yelchin,” said Simon Pegg.

“That’s how we found the strength to be here ... It’s hard to talk about, but we don’t want to not talk about it. If we don’t talk about it it’s like we’re ignoring it.”

But persevering in the face of hardship and loss is in the fabric of “Star Trek,” which is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year with this new tale of hope and unity in the federation.

“Star Trek Beyond” was supposed to be business as usual, with a few tweaks behind the scenes. J.J. Abrams, who re-launched the series in 2009 with a new

cast and directed the 2013 sequel had his hands full with “Star Wars: The Force Awakens,” and would cede directing responsibilities to Justin Lin — the man who turned the lagging “Fast & Furious” series into an international phenomenon.

Gone, too, were screenwriters Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman. Instead,

Pegg, who plays Scotty in the films, was tasked with taking on the additional responsibility of writing the screenplay with Doug Jung. It wasn’t going to be easy. No blockbuster ever is.

But the “Beyond” crew had an insanely short window to work with. By the time Pegg, Jung and Lin started on the story, it was the end

of January 2015. They had to start filming in June.

“Justin was in a situation that no director should ever be in: Prepping a movie that wasn’t written yet,” Pegg said.

There was already a crew in Vancouver waiting for directions on what to build for the set.

“I equate it to us driving a car and building a road at the same time,” Lin said.

In front of the camera things mostly looked the same. Chris Pine was back as Captain James Kirk, as See TREK on Page 7

COMING UP Lyric Rep up and running ‘Pioneers and Patriots’ Four productions now underway downtown

Utah State University’s Lyric Repertory Company — the Lyric Rep —brings audiences music, mystery, love and laughter in the summer 2016 season.

“The Caine Lyric Theatre has been an integral part of the community for more than 45 years,” said Richie Call, co-artistic director of the Lyric Rep. “We have a cast of amazing actors from all over the country.”

And, Call notes, a number of long-time audience favorites return this summer. The company offers four shows that, when all have opened, play in repertory.

Opening this year’s season is “Arsenic and Old Lace,” a comedy by Joseph Kesselring.

This Lyric Rep favorite includes some of the most beloved characters of all time. Mortimer Brewster, a drama critic who must deal with his crazy, homicidal family, scrambles to keep Brooklyn safe from the “charity” of his well-meaning aunts. In the classic comedy, Martha and Abby Brewster leave Mortimer questioning his own sanity. The two aunts are played by Leslie Brott and Colleen Baum, both members of Actors’ Equity Association with extensive regional credits.

“Arsenic and Old Lace” opened June 9 and continues through the summer on July 8, 16, 23, 28 and Aug. 5.

Next is Ken Ludwig’s “Baskerville: A Sherlock Holmes Mystery,”which opened June 16. In the Sherlock Holmes mystery, Ludwig puts his farcical spin on Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s classic “The Hound of the See LYRIC on Page 13

The original production “Pioneers and Patriots: A Musical Tribute to Our Pioneer Forefathers and to the Military” will begin at 7:45 p.m. Monday, July 25, at Elk Ridge Park, 1060 E. 2500 North, in North Logan.

Presented by North Logan City and the North Logan and Green Canyon LDS stakes, the event is free and everyone is invited to attend.

“We want an event that will mean something besides food and fireworks to people,” says event organizer Brenda Anthony. “This musical tribute will entertain as well as educate why we celebrate Pioneer Day. “Last year we were pleased with our first grand outdoor pageant, and this year will be even bigger and better. In addition to the orchestra, children’s chorus and Boy Scouts, we are adding an adult chorus.”

The orchestra, directed by Dirk Pace, will deliver a rousing rendition of John Philip Sousa’s, “The Stars and Stripes Forever.”

In addition, retired U.S. Army Col. John C. Bailey will address the title, “Pioneers and Patriots.” A 20-year veteran of the U.S. Army Medical Reserve Corps, who served in Vietnam and in Desert Storm, Bailey is a resident of North Logan and serves on the city council.

After a special tribute to veterans and those currently serving in the military, the event will conclude with a rendition of “God Bless America” by the orchestra and the audience.

Children are invited to dress as pioneers and sing with the children’s chorus, and Boy Scouts who attend are asked to wear their uniforms and participate in the flag presentation.

“North Logan City owns 200 flags, and we would Caine College of the Arts love to see a Boy Scout with every flag,” Anthony “Arsenic and Old Lace” is one of four productions being presented says. by the Lyric Repertory Company during its 2016 season.

‘Dreamcoat’ comes to life on Old Barn stage

The Herald Journal, Logan, Utah, Friday, July 22, 2016

The wild card of the 2016 Utah Festival Opera & Musical Theatre season is “Ragtime,” an electrifying slice of revisionist history set to music.

“Ragtime” focuses on three families in the early 20th Century — an African-American couple, an upper-class white family and a Jewish immigrant widower and his daughter — whose visions of the American dream are changed forever when their lives become entangled unexpectedly.

This musical debuted on Broadway just 20 years ago, making it practically brand new compared to typical

UFOMT fare. The score of “Ragtime” is sophisticated and powerful.

Under the direction of Valerie Rachelle, the play’s cleverly functional set design is starkly minimalist and its rapid-fire

staging is inspired.

Most importantly, this production is full of amazing performances and enough on-stage fireworks to excuse the fact that its message is heavy-handed and preachy.

“Ragtime” belongs heart and soul to Ezekiel Andrew as Coalhouse Walker Jr., a ragtime musician who avenges the murder of his lover through urban terrorism. Andrew carries the action of the musical squarely on his shoulders with equal measures of passion, strength and dignity. He shares the play’s show-stopper “On the Wheels of a Dream” with the radiant Kearstin

Piper Brown, and together they make every note of that duet pure gold.

Andrew is strongly supported by a multi-talented cast including the standouts Vanessa Ballam as the conflicted Mother of the suburban family, Adam T. Biner as her idealistic but naïve sibling and Stefan Espinosa as the immigrant Teteh.

In contrast to its disturbing images of racial prejudice and economic injustice, “Ragtime” also features some exceptionally lovely moments.

The best of those is real-life husband and wife Espinosa and Ms. Ballam on stage singing tenderly about “Our Children.” The highlight

New doc looks at JFK Jr. BOSTON (AP) — America’s prince is getting a new documentary.

“I Am JFK Jr. — A Tribute to a Good Man,” which hits select theaters on July 22, captures the fascination with John F. Kennedy Jr., from his early days toddling around the White House to his death in a plane crash in 1999.

Network Entertainment’s Derik Murray made the film in the mold of his other “I Am” movies, including “I Am Bruce Lee,” ‘’I Am Chris Farley” and “I Am Evel Knievel.” The film also airs on Spike TV at 9 p.m. EDT on Aug. 1, and a DVD release is set for Aug. 16.

The film captures JFK Jr. as John John, the tousle-haired toddler of the late President John F. Kennedy and Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, saluting his father’s casket after his 1963 assassination.

Highlights include JFK Jr.’s time as an assistant district attorney in New York, his 1988 People magazine Sexiest Man Alive cover and his 1995 debut as publisher of the splashy but short-lived magazine George.

In this Sept. 10, 1979 file photo, John Kennedy Jr. waits in registration line at Brown University in Providence, R.I., to register for his first year of college.

Interspersed are snippets of interviews with celebrities and politicians who knew him well.

They include supermodel Cindy Crawford, who famously posed as a midriff-baring George Washington, complete with powdered wig, for the inaugural issue of George;

actor Robert De Niro; boxer Mike Tyson; journalist Christiane Amanpour; Hustler magazine publisher Larry Flynt; former Brown University roommate Chris Oberbeck; and Grateful Dead songwriter John See DOC on Page 12

of another poignant scene is the bereaved Coalhouse dancing with the ghost of his lover while they wistfully sing “Sarah Brown Eyes.”

Appearing in memorable cameos as historical figures wryly commenting on the action of the play are Earl Wellington Hazell, Tuan Malinowski, John Punt, Kevin Nakatani, Vanessa Schukis and Nora Graham.

Under the expert direction of conductor James M. Bankhead, choral and dancing ensembles join its orchestra in giving “Ragtime” an authentic turn-of-the last-century vibe by performing production numbers with flavors reminiscent of

period marches, cakewalks, gospel melodies and, of course, ragtime tunes.

Additional evening performances of “Ragtime” are slated at the Ellen Eccles Theatre on July 22 and Aug. 3 and 6. The final matinee will be offered on July 28.

Fun and games score in ratings NEW YORK (AP) — The news was awful again last week, but viewers found some refuge in TV’s fun-and-games.

In the Nielsen Top 20, no fewer than 11 programs were reality-competition and game shows (including the week’s most-watched series, two editions of “America’s Got Talent”). Add to that baseball’s AllStar Game, the Home Run Derby and “The ESPY Awards,” and clearly viewers were eager for some relief.

Boosted by “America’s Got Talent,” NBC led the networks overall with a prime-time average of 4.9 million viewers. Runner-up ABC had 4.7 million, while CBS had 4.4 million. Fox, with 3.3 million, got a much-needed shot in the arm with its All-Star Game telecast (which drew 8.71 million viewers).

Fox News Channel once again was the week’s most popular cable network, averaging 2.75 million viewers during another busy news week.

For the week of July 11-17, the top 10 shows, their networks and viewerships: “America’s Got Talent” (Wednesday), NBC, 11.85 million; “America’s Got Talent” (Tuesday), NBC, 11.54 million; MLB AllStar Game, Fox, 8.71 million; “60 Minutes,” CBS, 8.17 million; “Celebrity Family Feud,” ABC, 7.77 million; “The Big Bang Theory,” CBS, 7.22 million; “The $100,000 Pyramid,” ABC, 7.16 million; “The Bachelorette,” ABC, 6.87 million; “American Ninja Warrior,” NBC, 6.34 million; “Night Shift,” NBC, 6.28 million.

Trek Continued from Page 3 was Karl Urban (Bones), Zoe Saldana (Uhura), Zachary Quinto (Spock), Yelchin (Chekov) and John Cho (Sulu), who is revealed to be gay in the latest film. There were a few additions, too, in Idris Elba as the terrifying villain Krall and Sofia Boutella as the scrappy loner Jaylah, who early on in the story process was referred to by the cast as “Hannah Solo.”

And then, in late February 2015, Leonard Nimoy — the man who originated Mr. Spock — died of end-stage chronic obstructive pulmonary disease at age 83. While Quinto had taken over his character officially, Nimoy had appeared in both new films as Spock Prime and the door was left open for his return.

So Pegg and Jung wrote Ambassador Spock’s off-screen death into the film, using it to affect Quinto’s arc, and also serve as an elegy to the actor.

Of course, no one could have foreseen that they would lose another before the film came out, and one of their youngest, in Yelchin who was only 27 when he died after being struck by his own car last month.

When the accident happened, Yelchin’s work on the film was finished, but Lin was still a few weeks away from completion, and so part of his and his post-production crew’s mourning involved revisiting all of Yelchin’s takes — something Lin was all too familiar with.

NEW YORK (AP) — After months of prerelease debate, Sony Picture’s female-led “Ghostbusters” reboot arrived in theaters as neither a massive success nor the bomb some predicted, as the muchscrutinized film opened with an estimated $46 million in North American theaters, second to the holdover hit “The Secret Life of Pets.”

“The Secret Life of Pets” stayed on top with $50.6 million in its second week, according to studio estimates Sunday.

But all eyes were on Paul Feig’s “Ghostbusters,” which resurrects the 1984 original with a cast of Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Leslie Jones and Kate McKinnon. Sony, noting it was the best opening for a live-action comedy in more than a year, called

‘SLOP’ barely edges out ‘Ghostbusters’

A Passion for Pioneers Little Bloomsbury Art Foundation celebrating the Beehive State’s heritage with Ice Cream Festival

Kaye Groll says her passion for her family’s pioneer heritage dates back to the age of 13.

“My mother gave me a copy of one of my ancestors’ journals one day,” Groll recalls. “She said, ‘I really want you to read this,’ and I did and I was hooked. I’ve pretty much had those pioneers in my heart and my mind my whole life.”

An accomplished artist who has one of her paintings hanging in the Logan LDS Temple, Groll says that later on when she was a mother and her own family was facing a challenging time, she felt inspired to paint a scene featuring her great, great grandmother.

“I wanted to give my children something that’s going to keep them true and faithful, so I made this picture of my Grandma Margaret McNeil Ballard and hung it on the wall,” Groll explains. “I told my children, I want you to look at this and think, If they could do it, so can you.”

When Margaret McNeil Ballard was just 10 years old, she and her family were crossing the plains on their way to Utah in the 1850s when illness and lost animals left her virtually in charge of her 4-year-old brother, James, who was suffering with the measles. For hundreds of miles, Margaret carried James on her back during the day, then cared for the little boy at night as best she could and the two children eventually made it safely to Cache Valley.

“Her courageous example was only the beginning of a lifetime filled with faith, fortitude, hardship, unselfishness and strength,” Groll wrote in an explanation of the painting she entitled, “Grandma Margaret.”

“No matter the obstacles in her life, her legacy has taught other to stay true to what they rightly believe and rise about what we are faced with.”

“Lengthen Your Stride” is the theme of a new event hosted by the Little

Diane Herman, left, performs a pioneer dance with the help of Payton Hansen during a preview event for the Little Bloomsbury Ice Cream Summer Festival.

Story and Photographs by Jeff Hunter Bloomsbury Art Foundation that started Thursday and continues through Saturday night. The brainchild of founder Brenda C. Sun, the Ice Cream Summer Festival hopes to spur interest in and a greater appreciation for those individuals who helped settle Utah and the American West.

“We want to add culture, art and history to the Pioneer Day celebration, so we’re holding this art show and we’ll have participating artists of all backgrounds and ethnicities,” Sun explains.

“And we want to particularly pay tribute to folks that we might not actu-

ally be aware of that contributed a lot to the success of Mormon pioneers.

Because the majority of the population in Cache Valley are mormons, sometimes when we think of the pioneers, we only think of the Mormons — me included. But the mountain men helped paved the way for the pioneers, and, of course, the Native Americans, as well. And other groups like the Chinese helped to build up the American West.”

As part of this inaugural event — the annual Little Bloomsbury Art Festival is held each April at the two-story home directly west of the

Logan LDS Temple — four young women were selected as peace and art ambassadors. Savanna Hansen, 8, Smithfield; Payton Hansen, 10, Providence; Alexa Hunter, 14, Nibley; and Giuliette Reese, 11, Hyde Park, will all serve as tour guides over the three days after receiving training at several Daughters of the Utah Pioneers museums in Northern Utah.

“I like learning about history — it’s one of my favorite subjects — and I think it’s really fun to learn about your ancestors,” Payton Hansen says.

Among the many pieces of artwork on display during the event is a piece entitled “The Handcart” by local artist Dick Broun. He said he was inspired to paint it after reading “Fire of the Covenant” by Gerald N. Lund.

“I read the book and thought, That’s pretty wild. That will never happen again,” Broun said. “If I told someone to get in their car and drive to Illinois, and they’ve got seat heaters and air conditioning, they wouldn’t do it. It would be too big of a pain. But these guys walked all the way.

“I did a sketch of it first,” Broun added, “and I made the guy going uphill because I figured every step of the way felt like you were going uphill.”

(but she didn’t use the word black) were stealing her stuff. She literally took her racism to the grave.

She refused to be buried in the military cemetery where she and my WWII veteran grandfather could have been interred with honors for free. Her reason? She didn’t want to possibly be buried next to black people Racism 2.0 — Dad was a cop and was often on call for race riots and general unrest in St. Louis. He and my mom were genteel racists who mostly really did use the word black, and were quick to point out that they had black friends, although those mythical friends didn’t live in our

neighborhood. The reason for this is we were the poster children for “white flight.” We lived in the actual city of St. Louis until I was 10, at which time we moved to the suburbs because the “urbs” had problems, which was code for black people outnumbering white people in the public schools.

Racism 2.2 — Me? Well, I was robbed at knife point in front of the St. Louis Cardinals’ Busch Stadium in broad daylight by two older kids who just happened to be black.

My all-white, workingclass baseball team got in a bench-clearing, batswinging fight with an allblack team. So, I mainly grew up with fear-based

segregation. Blacks and whites knew that if you went to the wrong neighborhoods any bad thing that happened to you was probably your fault.

Racism 2.5 — Ironically, if not for sports in high school and college, I probably would not have had any meaningful interaction with black people.

Sports at least gave us a common language and common goals. Following my parents’ lead I was proud to have black friends that were less imaginary than theirs. I did bring a couple black people home for dinner.

Mom and dad were still genteel, but reminded me not to marry any of them.

They reasoned they were

not racists; mixed race couples would just have a hard time fitting in.

Racism 3.0 (firmware upgrade required) — The best escape from racism is to try to live race-less. So, here I am 60 having lived in Utah for 35 years? What do I know about racism? I put St. Louis in the rearview mirror as soon as could. I read and watch the news and it doesn’t seem like much has changed. We might be more polite and careful about the words we use but racism persists.

Continued from Page 7 comedies like “Bridesmaids,” ‘’The Heat” and “Spy,” won over the studio and the movies’ creators with his idea to reboot around McCarthy and Wiig.

But the film found plenty of detractors, including even Donald Trump . Some fans objected to the gender switch, others complained that the first trailer was subpar and some even fretted that any new incarnation of the comedy classic (one of the biggest box office hits of the 1980s) would tarnish their fragile memories .

Feig’s “Ghostbusters” had the vocal support of

“John Kennedy Jr. was destined for greatness, the heir apparent to his father’s legacy, and he knew that,” Murray said.

But the son, a student of history’s great men, had an overriding interest in goodness over greatness.

“After reading about them and who they were at home, how they treated their families, he thought it was more important for him to commit to being a good man,” Murray said. “In his mind, that was often missing in great men.”

Not surprisingly, the film focuses on JFK Jr.’s death at age 38 on July 16, 1999, when the single-engine private plane he was piloting from New Jersey to Martha’s Vineyard en route to a family wedding on Cape

Cod crashed into the Atlantic Ocean. Killed with Kennedy were his wife, Carolyn Bessette, and her sister, Lauren Bessette.

Friends, acquaintances and pundits reflect on a life cut short and speculate on what he might have become.

President, for instance?

A clip of an interview that JFK Jr. gave to Oprah Winfrey is telling. She insists he surely must have thought about running for office, and he responds, somewhat coyly, “There is this great weight of expectation and anticipation.”

But maybe not.

“John was smart enough to know, ‘I’m Junior. I’m not my father,’” another presidential son, Michael Reagan, says in the film.

“I believe that he had greatness in him,” CNN journalist Chris Cuomo tells the producers. “And I don’t give a damn if that meant anything about politics.”

director Ivan Reitman (a producer on the reboot) and Murray, who makes a cameo in the film.

Critics were largely mixed on the movie, which scored a 73 percent “fresh” rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

Paul Dergarabedian, senior media analyst for comScore, called the weekend performance “a solid and expected result.”

“There was all this hoopla and all this chatter about the movie and now it’s opened and it did just fine,” said Dergarabedian. “I don’t think there’s a referendum on whether or not an all-female cast in a movie has an impact. If people like the concept and the cast, they’re going to go see the movie.”

“Show Boat” is one of five productions being offered by the Utah Festival Opera & Musical Theatre this summer.

As usual, Vanessa Ballam steals the show as Magnolia, the stage-struck daughter of the owners of a floating theater in the late 19th Century. But Ms. Ballam faces stiff competition for that honor this time from a thick crowd of talented co-stars, many of them recruited from

opera programs throughout the country.

Brandon Coleman is simply marvelous as the deck–hand Joe. Coleman’s resonant bass voice gives the show’s tragic anthem, “Old Man River,” all the power and majesty

Brown and Arthur Freed.

One of the most popular movie-musicals of all time, the show follows a Hollywood film studio as it adapts its latest silent film into a musical “talkie.”

Katie Francis, who played the title role in last summer’s “The Mystery of Edwin Drood,” is set to play Kathy Selden and Tyler Whitsides plays Don Lockwood.

Toe-tapping tunes from the show include “Singin’ in the Rain,” “Good Morning,” “Moses Supposes,” “Make ‘Em Laugh” and many more.

The production continues July 2, 6, 9, 14, 22, 30 and Aug. 3 and 6.

The fourth show of the season is “You Can’t

Take it With You” by Moss Hart and George S. Kaufman. A charming, feel-good comedy, “You Can’t Take it With You”rounds out the 2016 Lyric Rep season. In the Pulitzer Prize-winning play, Grandpa Vanderhoff, played by Patrick Williams, leads his family to question what matters most in life: money and security or love and happiness? Audiences can ponder that question June 30, July 1, 2, 7, 15, 23, 27, 30 and Aug. 4.

There’s a glorious nostalgia-fest underway at the Ellen Eccles Theatre as the Utah Festival Opera & Musical Theatre presents the venerable musical “Show Boat” by Jerome Kern and Oscar Hammerstein II. When “Show Boat” premiered on Broadway in 1927, it was a theatrical sensation that represented an evolutionary step toward our modern musical genre by successfully integrating drama, humor, singing and dancing into a storytelling gestalt for the first time. While the musical’s plot may be pure soap opera from a 21st Century perspective, gifted director Valerie Rachelle proves here that “Show Boat” can still bewitch audiences with its winning combination of timeless music and corny “love conquers all” theme.
