FROM THE EDITOR

S

omewhere, in one of the stories about Winnie the Pooh, Rabbit is planting rutabagas. I read this story with my niece and nephew once and, for whatever reason, the word “rutabaga” struck a chord with the three of us. Maybe it is because the word is fun to say, or Rabbit was just busy planting — I don’t remember for sure. But we can all recall when we read it.

Rutabaga is kind of a running joke now. When I was in Paris a year ago, I happened upon an eatery that bears the name of this root. When I saw the place, I took a picture of it and sent it to my niece and nephew. They loved it. I have since learned more about rutabagas, like how it is traditionally served and that it can be carved like a pumpkin. So when one of my friends said she wanted to carve pineapples for Halloween this year, I knew instantly I wanted to carve a rutabaga. The insides of a rutabaga can’t be scooped out like a pumpkin’s, at least I couldn’t figure out an easy way to

do it, so I tried to make deep, visible cuts into the vegetable. The end result wasn’t my finest carving, but rutabagas aren’t that good looking. On the plus side, it wasn’t nearly as messy as working with a pumpkin or a pineapple. The Halloween-themed events have passed now, and fall will soon be over. In this issue of Cache Magazine, we have poems about fall foliage, pumpkins and all that comes with the season submitted by students attending Wellsville Elementary School. To read some of their reflections, check out page 12. — Arie Kirk


Locals performing in ‘Seven Brides’ Love makes the world go ’round, and it certainly adds to the fun in “Seven Brides for Seven Brothers,” Top of Utah Entertainment’s fall musical showing Nov. 1-12 at the Old Rock Church in Providence. Show times are 7 p.m. with a matinee at 2:30 p.m. Nov. 10. Tickets are $10 and include your favorite oldfashioned cobbler and ice cream to get everyone ready for the social event of the evening. Directed by Gwendolyn Dattage, with musical direction by Melody Fryer and DeAnn Johnson, this ever popular romantic comedy promises a romping-good time. The show is produced courtesy of Music Theater International and features talents from throughout the valley. In this version, seven young men living in squalor under one roof in an isolated mountain camp somewhere high up in the Cascade Mountains of Oregon, circa 1850, decide they need the touch of femininity to help them mend their wild ways. Known as the wildest bunch of brutes around those parts,

PET OF THE WEEK Available for adoption Scott Henderson, who plays Adam, and Celeste Baillio, cast as Milly, are part of Top of Utah Entertainment’s musical “Seven Brides for Seven Brothers.”

the Pontipee Brothers, led by Adam, the eldest, have been barred from town or going anywhere near the town’s young women. One day in the restaurant, though, Adam comes upon the beautiful and feisty Milly and convinces her to marry him almost immediately. No time for a honeymoon, Milly is surprised

to discover that Adam has six brothers, all living in the Pontipee home without any semblance of order or decorum. In self-defense, she goes about taming them amidst many adventures and squabbles. Eventually, the brothers find brides in their own unusual fashion, and all are married “real legal-like” during a rousing finale.

Top of Utah Entertainment continues to entertain this holiday season at the Masquerade Ball on New Year’s Eve at the Old Rock Church and maybe even a night’s stay at the beautiful Providence Inn. For more information please check out www.topofutahentertainment.com and www.providenceinn.com.

Nick Cave, fabric sculptor, dancer and performance artist, is coming to Utah State University on Nov. 8 and while on campus he will be interviewed by David Wall. Everyone is invited to the 6 p.m. interview session in the Eccles Conference Center, Room 216. Best known for his “Soundsuits,” wearable bright whimsical sculptures, Cave lives in Chicago, Ill., and is a graduate of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. “Nick Cave is one of the most exciting artists working right now,” said Laura Gelfand, head of the Department of Art and Design in the Caine College of the Arts at USU. “His work touches on every academic department of the Caine College of the Arts — visual art, music and theater. Trained as a dancer, his work is based in performance but results in fantastic objects that can be displayed or worn.” Cave teaches fashion at the School of the Art Institute in Chicago and is the chairman of the fashion department. He creates each Soundsuit by hand, using knickknacks from the thrift store, including buttons, beads, sweaters, knitted potholders and fake flowers. He created the first suit in 1992 in response to the Los Angeles Rodney King beating, creating a suit out of twigs. Cave discovered that when he moved in the twig suit, it made a sound, and thus the idea was born for more Soundsuits. Wall, an assistant professor of art history, will interview Cave. An expert on contemporary African-American art and modes of representation, Wall is the perfect choice to interview Cave, said Gelfand. The interview is free and open to the public. For more information, call the art department office, 435-797-3460. Nick Cave, fabric sculptor, dancer and performance artist, is coming to USU on Nov. 8.

Sky View High School hosts variety show Sky High Players present “What if Life Were More like Theatre” (a variety show) at Sky View. Show time is at 7:30 p.m. Nov. 8-10 and 12 in the Sky View High School auditorium, 520 S. 250 East in Smithfield. Tickets are $6 in advance and $7 at the door. Tickets can be bought in advance at skyviewtix. org or ezticketlive.com. To name just a few, the show includes singing nuns, Shakespearean pigs and a girl rambling about how she “hates musicals.” There are love stories told in the form of a lyrical ballet and some songs, plus tap dancing mice, and a hair raising Halloween number. Overall the show represents how difficult life might be, but how looking at it with “a theatrical point of view” makes it so much more enjoyable for one and all. The show concludes with a tribute to the Sky High Players that will be graduating this spring.

First Saturday Contra Dance this weekend The Cache Valley Folk Dancers and Bridger Folk Music Society is hosting its First Saturday Contra Dance at 7:30 p.m., Saturday, Nov. 3, at the Whittier Community Center, 290 N. 400 East in Logan.

Still playing By all accounts, Jay Moriarity was a lovely young man: a talented, dedicated surfer whose enthusiasm and optimism were infectious throughout the Santa Cruz, Calif., community where he was well-known and loved. But that doesn't exactly make him the most compelling figure to place at the center of a film, at least not in the one-note way in which he's depicted here. This family friendly production tells the true story of the late surfer in 1994, when he's only 15 years old and dares to take on the dangerous and potentially deadly Mavericks surf break just up the coast from his home. Jay wants to conquer these waves ... well, because they're there. And he enlists a reluctant local legend, Frosty (Gerard Butler, struggling to suppress his Scottish accent), to help him train. This sets up a father-son "Karate Kid" formula in which the plucky underdog must complete a series of arduous tasks in preparation for a once-in-adecade, five-story-tall wall of water. Not a single character or moment rings true; no one feels like a fully fleshed-

Maybe if you’re 20 years old and high in your dorm room with your friends, the platitudes presented here might seem profound. Anyone else in his or her right mind should recognize it for what it is: a bloated, pseudo-intellectual, self-indulgent slog through some notions that are really rather facile. Ooh, we’re all interconnected and our souls keep meeting up with each other over the centuries, regardless of race, gender or geography. We’re individual drops of water but we’re all part of the same ocean. That is deep, man. Perhaps it all worked better on the page. “Cloud Atlas” comes from the best-selling novel of the same name by David Mitchell that, in theory, might have seemed unfilmable, encompassing six stories over a span of 500 years and including some primitive dialogue in a far-away future. Sibling directors Lana and Andy Wachowski — who actually have come up with some original, provocative ideas of their own in the “Matrix” movies (well, at least the first one) — working with “Run

W

hen Kayli Jackson was cast as Elle in “Legally Blonde — The Musical,” she knew she had some changes to make. Not only has the natural brunette gone blonde this semester, she had to make some wardrobe changes in real life to get more in character. “I owned not a single pink thing,” she said. “I actually went out and shopped and bought a bunch of pink things. It’s opened up a whole new side of me.”

While Jackson, a 20-year-old junior at Utah State University, might not be your average girly-girl, she has transformed into the part of Elle, the main character in the new musical that opened Thursday and runs this weekend and next week at the Morgan Theatre on campus. The musical, based on the MGM motion picture and novel, involves a sorority sister who follows her ex-boyfriend from California to Harvard Law School in an attempt to show him she’s

“serious” about life. The movie was released in 2001, but the musical has only recently become available, said director Kenneth Risch. In his second year at USU, Risch is the head of the theater arts departments. He said he’s just been waiting for the release of this musical, which he calls “one of the best adaptations of a movie out there,” to put it on at USU. “We have a lot of groups in town that produce musicals,” he said. “We want to find our niche, so we’re not really

competing with other groups. What we can do here are some of the hot new shows that are out there that use younger people.” Risch said “Legally Blonde” also requires a lot of female actors, of which USU has plenty. The 36-person cast has rehearsed since the beginning of the semester after a one-week audition in August that attracted 80 hopefuls. The cast also includes a couple of canines, famously known to “Legally Blonde” fans as

Bruiser, Elle’s chihuahua, and Rufus, a bulldog owned by her hairdresser. The dog that plays Rufus is owned by a student scenic designer, but Bruiser is a recent rescue from the Cache Humane Society. Risch got the dog for the purpose of using him in the musical and intended to foster him in the meantime — the little chihuahua wasn’t doing so well in the shelter, he said. After advertising for a permanent

W

hen Kayli Jackson was cast as Elle in “Legally Blonde — The Musical,” she knew she had some changes to make. Not only has the natural brunette gone blonde this semester, she had to make some wardrobe changes in real life to get more in character. “I owned not a single pink thing,” she said. “I actually went out and shopped and bought a bunch of pink things. It’s opened up a whole new side of me.”

While Jackson, a 20-year-old junior at Utah State University, might not be your average girly-girl, she has transformed into the part of Elle, the main character in the new musical that opened Thursday and runs this weekend and next week at the Morgan Theatre on campus. The musical, based on the MGM motion picture and novel, involves a sorority sister who follows her ex-boyfriend from California to Harvard Law School in an attempt to show him she’s

“serious” about life. The movie was released in 2001, but the musical has only recently become available, said director Kenneth Risch. In his second year at USU, Risch is the head of the theater arts departments. He said he’s just been waiting for the release of this musical, which he calls “one of the best adaptations of a movie out there,” to put it on at USU. “We have a lot of groups in town that produce musicals,” he said. “We want to find our niche, so we’re not really

competing with other groups. What we can do here are some of the hot new shows that are out there that use younger people.” Risch said “Legally Blonde” also requires a lot of female actors, of which USU has plenty. The 36-person cast has rehearsed since the beginning of the semester after a one-week audition in August that attracted 80 hopefuls. The cast also includes a couple of canines, famously known to “Legally Blonde” fans as

Bruiser, Elle’s chihuahua, and Rufus, a bulldog owned by her hairdresser. The dog that plays Rufus is owned by a student scenic designer, but Bruiser is a recent rescue from the Cache Humane Society. Risch got the dog for the purpose of using him in the musical and intended to foster him in the meantime — the little chihuahua wasn’t doing so well in the shelter, he said. After advertising for a permanent

Your Stuff “Rain” By Katie Glover Having a hard time putting this all together. Knowing what to do or how to make it better. Life is going much too fast, almost spinning out of control. I can’t seem to hold on to things but I guess that’s not for me to know. People often say when it rains it pours. But what do you do when you get to that point where you feel you can’t do it anymore. Some people say I need to keep a sense of humor. But it’s hard to even smile. I remember when I use to be able to honestly laugh, haven’t felt that way for awhile. Enjoying the small things is something I’m slowly learning to do. Picking good friends to associate with is something I’m doing too. The rain keeps falling and then it starts to pour. I start to cry as I feel my heart getting sore. I finally realize there is nothing I can do to stop everyone’s pain. So I wipe away a tear, go out into the storm and enjoy playing in the rain. Send your poems and stories to jhunter@hjnews.com.

“Autumn Leaves” By Madyson Leishman

‘Bowl of Heaven’ the beginning of a sci-fi epic By Rob Merrill Associated Press

About 100 pages into “Bowl of Heaven,” I realized it isn’t a stand-alone book. There’s no mention of more volumes on the book jacket, but the world imagined here is too vast, the questions too many for 416 pages. Once you come to terms with reading “to be continued” on the last page, it’s easy to settle in and enjoy the sci-fi smorgasbord served up by Gregory Benford and Larry Niven. There’s a lot to savor. Fans of so-called “hard science fiction” will enjoy the descriptions of ionic scoop fusion drives and all the solar-powered gadgets put to practical use during deep space explo-

ration. The year is many centuries in the future. Earth is almost uninhabitable, and a brave band of intergalactic explorers is bound for Glory, a planet

that tests show might provide a new start for humanity. But sci-fi is never that simple. Partway to their destination, the crew encounters a gigantic floating structure among the stars and veers off course to check it out. “Bigger than the orbit of Mercury, huge beyond comprehension, the hemisphere was an artifact, a built thing, the first evidence of another intelligence in the galaxy,” the authors write. What Earth’s refugees find on the surface poses some of the questions that science fiction has long enjoyed pondering: Are we alone? What does it mean to be human? And does evolution ever end? First contact is oddly anticlimactic. The most evolved

‘Room’ author imagines bits of history By Rob Merrill Associated Press

How do you follow up an international best-seller like “Room”? With a collection of short stories inspired by snippets of history, naturally. “Astray” is obviously not a book Irish-Canadian author Emma Donoghue wrote to build on the audience she gained from that chilling piece of 2010 fiction about a captive 5-year-old and his mom. But it is a book that shows her confidence as a writer, bringing to life the characters that piqued her interest in everything from 19th-century letters to a line in a New York newspaper in 1735. If you’re not sure whether you want to give it a chance, commit a forgivable sin and read the Afterword first. Donoghue writes eloquently

about what binds the stories together: “Emigrants, immigrants, adventurers, and runaways — they fascinate me because they loiter on the margins, stripped of the markers of family and nation; they’re out of place, out of their depth.”

All the stories are brief, featuring characters far from home who find themselves not just geographically astray, but morally, too. Donoghue is gifted at imagining narrators from all walks of life. She writes one in the voice of a slave in 1864 Texas who murders his master and runs away with his wife: “She turn, she look in my face, she say I packed my bag. Her hand like a knot in mine.” Another tells the story of a pair of 1896 gold diggers in the Yukon who create their own “Brokeback Mountain” when snowstorms force them inside their tent for days at a time. Anyone who appreciates a well-told tale will enjoy these 14 short stories. It’s perfect for the bedside table or the quiet commute — rich tales by a writer near the top of her game.

aliens are birds taller than 9 feet high that look somewhat like ostriches and are called Astronomers. “The native ... strode forward on legs that articulated gracefully, taking great long strides. Mouth like a stubby beak. Spindly long arms ending in complicated hands.” Some of the best chapters are narrated by an astronomer named Memor. (Is it significant that the y is missing?) Reading them brings to mind how zoo animals must feel as we gawk at them in their manufactured habitats.

The human characters aren’t very well developed by the end of book one. At times you find yourself cheering for the aliens to wipe out the hardy band of humans they call Late Invaders. Cliff, Beth, Irma and the rest spend a lot of time resorting to base animal instincts — arguing with each other and endlessly seeking food and water. But are they captives or free to continue on their way? You’ll only know if you read book two, “Shipstar,” which the authors promise is “following soon.”
