FROM THE EDITOR As a lifelong American who has a deep passion for U.S. history and has been to all 50 states, I like to think that I’m quite familiar with America. I also like to think that I know something about talent ... although this column is probably going to quickly prove otherwise. So, it’s probably not going to be a big surprise that I’m not that familiar with “America’s Got Talent.” However, at the encouragement of
friends and relatives and the Internet, I have checked out an occasional act from the NBC show on YouTube. Recently, of course, there was current Utah resident Alex Boyé making waves on the stage. But before then, there was the sweet little girl named Aaralyn, who delivered the delightfully frightening tune, “Zombie Skin.” (You really need to check that out if you haven’t already, especially if you have a 6-year-old daughter). But now, it could be your turn. I have recently been in contact with representatives from “America’s Got Talent” who wanted to know if I knew of anyone worthy of being on their TV show. And, in addition, “America’s Got Talent” —
which is now Howard Stern-free — will soon be holding auditions in Utah for the first time ever. So, if you have the kind of talent that simply needs to be seen on national television, then you should plan on auditioning at the Salt Palace Convention Center in Salt Lake City on Saturday, Dec. 5. (For more information, visit americasgottalentauditions.com/audition-cities/salt-lake-city). Should you make it to prime time and get to perform in front of the likes of Heidi Klum, Howie Mandel, Mel B, and now, Simon Cowell, please let me know and I’ll set my DVR. — Jeff Hunter

and recreate the excitement of the live performance. In this production of “The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes,” the clever Holmes skillfully maneuvers the twisted web of London’s most intriguing cases with his split-second deductions revealing intimate and use-
ful details of a person’s life. Sherlock Holmes is a master of disguise and a brilliant actor, as well as a composer and musician — is there anything he can’t do? Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s vivid characters jump from the page, weaving a tale of mystery, suspense and
intrigue. In addition to Holmes, many of Doyle’s other well-known creations are on hand; the trusted sidekick Dr. Watson, Irene Adler (the woman who got away), and the only woman to have won Holmes’s See SET on Page 12

Tickets are $24 ($10 for students) and are available at arts.usu.edu, by calling 797-8022, at the Caine College of the Arts box office in the Chase Fine Arts Center or and at the door the night of the performance. Now their 20th year of playing together, the Fauré Quartett seeks to
express the essence of each composer’s work. Dirk Mommertz (piano), Erika Geldsetzer (violin), Sascha Frömbling (viola) and Konstantin Heidrich (cello) met when they were studying at the Karlsruhe Music Lyceum in Germany. Geldsetzer founded the quartet in 1995, and the group has remained together ever since. The quartet has won acclaim for their performances as well as their recordings. Music critic Harald Eggebrecht, writing in the Süddeutsche
Zeitung, said, “The Fauré Quartett is right up there with the best ensembles you can hear today.” The Fauré Quartett returns to perform in Logan less than a year after their first performance in Cache Valley. The program at the USU Performance Hall comprises Mozart’s Piano Quartet KV 478 in G-minor; Martinu’s Piano Quartet No. 1, H. 287; and Fauré’s Piano Quartet No. 1, Op. 15.

Sky High Players deliver ‘Dream’ The Sky High Players will present William Shakespeare’s “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” at 7 p.m. Nov. 5-7 and 9, in the Sky View High School Auditorium in Smithfield. Tickets are $8 if purchased online at skyhighplayers.org or $10 at the door. There are youth, group and family discounts available. “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” is one of Shakespeare’s most performed works. Over the centuries, the play has been hailed for its fun, exciting characters, both human and fairy, and its delightful story, which involves themes of love and magic in their various manifestations. “This play is certainly one of my favorites,” says David Sidwell, director of the production. “We get no fewer than five different love stories. Some are comic, some are tragic, some mysterious, and all are so fun to watch.” Although this is actor Cari Phillips’ first experi-
ence performing Shakespeare, she’s having a great adventure directing and playing the part of Titania, the Queen of the Fairies. “The King puts a spell on her; making her fall in love with an actor with a donkey’s head,” Phillips says. “Before the spell she’s vivacious and sassy. After he casts the spell she becomes obsessed with her new love and goes a little crazy. She’s a fun character to play because there’s so much dimension to her.” Joining the Sky High Players will be Sky View High School’s choir and orchestra, playing parts of Felix Mendelssohn’s famous “Incidental Music” for the show, arranged by USU professor Sergio Bernal. Mendelssohn’s composition includes several well-known pieces, including the ubiquitous “Wedding March.” The production is family-friendly and suitable for all ages.
Beginning with British Brass Band composer, Philip Sparke’s sparkling “Fiesta!,” the program becomes introspective with David Gillingham’s “Be Thou My Vision,” a modern-day setting of a traditional hymn tune. Malcolm Arnold’s “Four Cornish Dances” reflect, in original melodies, the spirit of folk music in the British region of Cornwall. After a brief intermission, the American West takes center stage,
first with the Thomas Rohrer work, “Transcontinental Union,” inspired by the 1869 completion of the transcontinental railroad at Promontory. Next, is a Donald Gillis work, “Tulsa,” that musically depicts the undisturbed land, land rush, oil drilling and post-gusher jamboree in the state of Oklahoma in the 19th century. The concert concludes with a medley from the

‘Crisis’ adds to pileup of flops at box office NEW YORK (AP) — Sandra Bullock’s political satire “Our Brand Is Crisis” and Bradley Cooper’s chef drama “Burnt” added to a pileup of flops at the box office, where new wide releases have gone a startling 0-for-9 in the last two weeks. After five movies failed to draw moviegoers last week, Hollywood whiffed again over the Halloween weekend as four new movies went largely ignored in favor of trick-ortreating. The “60 Minutes II” scandal drama “Truth,” with Cate Blanchett
and Robert Redford, expanding nationwide, and the horror comedy “Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse” added to a plague of empty theaters. That enabled the top three films from the last several weeks — “The Martian,” ‘’Goosebumps” and “Bridge of Spies” — to remain atop the ranks, according to studio estimates Sunday. With an estimated $11 million in its fifth weekend, Ridley Scott’s 3-D space adventure “The Martian” has hauled in $180.8
million domestically, and led the box office four times — a dominating stretch that has spelled trouble for other releases courting adult moviegoers. The weekend was never meant to be a big one at theaters with Halloween falling on a Saturday and the latest James Bond film, “Spectre” (and follow-up to the $1.1 billion “Skyfall”) awaiting release in the coming week. Sony’s “Spectre,” which has

Ansari finding his voice
Comedian breaks out in new show on Netflix NEW YORK (AP) — By one measure, Aziz Ansari has taken just a baby step with “Master of None.” The new Netflix comedy series, whose 10 episodes premiere Friday, arrives as the latest in a TV genre of stand-ups (think Jerry Seinfeld, Louis C.K., Jim Gaffigan) depicting versions of themselves both on and off the stage. But “Master” is its own distinctive thing, thanks to the distinctive voice of Ansari — a top stand-up who can pack Madison Square Garden in addition to being a capable actor building on his seven-season run as pint-sized impresario Tom Haverford on “Parks and Recreation.” He also created, produced and wrote “Master” (in cahoots with fellow “Parks and Rec” alum Alan Yang) and directed two episodes. Granted, the 32-year-

old Ansari hasn’t strayed too far for his new character, Dev, a first-generation Indian-American and aspiring actor who lives in New York, where he has found moderate success doing TV commercials and spends his ample free time with a varied troupe of friends.
“There’s no big premise,” says Ansari. “I tried to make the series similar to stand-up in the way each episode deals with a particular topic: longterm relationships, elderly people, how Indians are stereotyped on TV. I’ve enjoyed all the acting work I’ve done, but, until
now, only in my stand-up have I felt like I’ve been able to get out my voice.” That voice is as bright as his sparkling eyes and luminous grin, and he imbues Dev with an open-minded attitude and almost childlike wonder. See VOICE on Page 11
Sports, politics dominate ratings LOS ANGELES (AP) — Nothing beats athletes clashing on the field for impressive TV ratings, but the skirmishes of CNBC’s Republican debate came close. NFL programming and baseball’s World Series dominated last week’s ratings, taking seven of the top 20 spots, the Nielsen company said Tuesday, Viewers also were drawn to the debate with leading GOP presidential candidates. It was the week’s top-ranked cable show with an audience of 14 million — a record for CNBC — and was among TV’s top 10 overall despite competition from Game 2 between the Kansas City Royals and New York Mets. Even CNBC’s post-debate show attracted an audience of 10.5 million. As solid as the debate viewership was compared to previous years, it was down sharply from the 24 million who saw the first GOP contest on Fox News Channel in August and the 23 million viewers who tuned in to CNN’s event. The CNBC debate wasn’t limited to fireworks among the candidates. Some of the moderators’ questions drew rebukes from candidates who labeled them as unfair and, at one point, lightweight. Baseball-powered Fox won last week in prime time, averaging nearly 13 million viewers. CBS had 9.7 million; NBC had 8.2 million; ABC had 6 million; Univision had 2.3 million; Telemundo had 1.9 million; the CW had 1.5 million, and ION Television had 1 million. For the week of Oct. 26 to Nov. 1, the top 10 shows, their networks and viewerships: NBC Sunday Night Football: Green Bay at Denver, NBC, 23 million; “Sunday Night NFL Pre-Kick,” NBC, 18 million; “The OT,” Fox, 17.9 million; NFL Football: Miami at New England, CBS, 17.5 million; World Series Game 5, Fox, 17.3 million; “NCIS,” CBS, 16.8 million; World Series Game 5 preshow, Fox, 16.6 million; “The Big Bang Theory,” CBS, 16.3 million; World Series Game 1, Fox, 14.9 million; Republican presidential debate, CNBC, 14 million.

What “Spectre” does well is work at piecing all the disparate parts of the Daniel Craig-James Bond era together into a worldwide conspiracy that’s been working right under 007’s nose. Sure, that sounds a little bit like the Syndicate Ethan Hunt overthrew in the latest “Mission: Impossible.” And as the story of Bond moves along, the stakes must get (artificially) higher for his involvement to be worthwhile. Stakes that feel murky, at best, given the information we’re privy to. Yet, there’s this idea that Bond movies must not only be engaging intellectually, but they should also lend themselves well to spectacle. Perhaps that’s where “Spectre” falls short of some of its predecessors, most notably “Casino Royale” and “Skyfall.” While “Spectre” does a marvelous job connecting the proverbial dots of James Bond’s lifelong obsession, it provides little in the way of memorable set pieces audiences will be talking about long after the movie. It’s been a while since I’ve sat down and watched “Casino Royale,” but it feels like I can remember every bit of that harrowing opening parkour chase ending in that deathdefying crane sequence. I’ll fondly reminisce about the famous Roger

He’s been nothing more than a ghost for the entire run of Craig’s Bond. Somehow, though, his appearance and plan seem rather anti-climactic and lacking in realworld stakes. He’s the kind of movie villain who uses improbable riers. bomb timers just to add Bond has found himartificial suspense.

PROMOTING BOND
Daniel Craig continues 50-year tradition with 007’s latest, ‘Spectre’
The new James Bond flick “Spectre” got a royal seal of approval at its world premiere Monday night in London. Fans who lined the red carpet not only got to see Daniel Craig — resplendent in a dark tuxedo and earthy smile — and glamorous co-stars Lea Seydoux and Monica Bellucci, but could also catch a glimpse of Prince William, his wife Kate, and Prince Harry, still sporting a beard. All eyes were on Kate, the Duchess of Cambridge, who was among the last to arrive at the Royal Albert Hall before the film rolled. She chose a light blue Jenny Packham dress for the event. The two princes wore tuxedos, which have been something of a Bond trademark since the days when Sean Connery played 007 for the first time in “Dr. No” in 1962. The royals, who arrived in a Bentley, were greeted by director Sam Mendes and co-producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson. Craig, accompanied by his film star wife Rachel Weisz, patiently posed for dozens of selfies with adoring fans. He told reporters he had “loved every minute” he’s spent as Bond and declined to answer questions about whether he would return for as the sexy, world-saving British agent. The buzz over Craig’s fourth and potentially last outing as 007 started almost as soon as the wellreceived “Skyfall” hit the screens back in 2012. Now, there’s almost as much anticipation about who will eventually replace Craig than for “Spectre” itself, which has already garnered largely positive reviews. First came the announcement of the name of the new Bond film, followed by various photo opportunities, carefully crafted trailers, as well as slick promotional activity from the film’s partners such as Heineken, Omega and Sony. The process ends with official premieres around the world. This is the third time that the Royal Albert Hall will host the World Premiere, following “Die Another Day” in 2002 and “Skyfall.” The Associated Press has been covering the Bond franchise from its more subdued beginnings with “Dr. No” over 50 years ago. Here are some memorable moments surrounding the glamorous promotion of Bond films, as captured by photographers from The AP, featuring Sean Connery, George Lazenby, Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton, Pierce Brosnan and Craig.

Brigham exhibit displays Depression photos When the stock market crashed on Tuesday, Oct. 29, 1929, “Black Tuesday” triggered the Great Depression. Initially the event was referred to as an economic slump, a passing incident in our national lives and an economic downturn. Unfortunately, Americans would end up experiencing the longest, deepest and most widespread depression of the 20th century. Utah was among the states hit hardest by the Great Depression, which lasted until the late 1930s. Black-and-white photographs as well as artifacts that document these difficult times are featured in the Brigham City Museum of Art and History’s exhibit “Between the Wars: The Great Depression in Northern Utah.” The exhibit opens Oct. 17 and continues through Dec. 12. Admission is free. Images of the disas-
trous Willard flood in 1923 are also included in the exhibit. The museum is located at 24 N. 300 West in Brigham City. The entrance is on the west side. Hours are from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m., Tuesday through Friday, and 1 to 5 p.m. Saturday. For further information, please call (435) 2261439 or visit brighamcitymuseum. org. Some of the photos in the exhibit were taken by such distinguished professional photographers as Russell Lee. Lee, who was born in Ottawa, Illinois, and earned a degree in chemical engineering, but he gave up a lucrative career as a chemist to become a photographer. He was hired for the federally sponsored Farm Security Administrationphotographic documentation project of President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s administration. Lee was one of the photog-
raphers that captured on film the eviction of Japanese Americans from the West Coast. Other photos in the exhibit were taken by amateur photographers that were members of the Civilian Conservation Corps located in Northern Utah. The CCC was a public relief program that operated from 1933 to ’42 for unemployed, unmarried men between the ages of 17 and 28 years. The CCC was a major part of President Roosevelt’s New Deal that provided unskilled manual labor jobs related to the conservation and development of natural resources in rural lands owned by federal, state and local governments. One of the projects a CCC crew undertook when they arrived in Northern Utah was terrace the landscape in Willard that had been altered following the flood.

Continued from Page 6 In the series’ first scene, he faces a potentially disastrous mishap: His condom breaks while in bed with Rachel, whom he met hours earlier at a bar. After a dash to the pharmacy for a morning-after pill, Dev spends the rest of the episode in an exploration of the pros and (many) cons of parenthood as he observes it among his friends. Was that scene inspired by a condom crisis of his own? “There’s been similar experiences in the bedroom that I’ve drawn from, sure,” he concedes. “I don’t think this show is autobiographical, and this guy is a few years less evolved than I am, I’d like to think. But there’s some overlap.” An overlap item: Dev’s drolly grating ringtone was erupting from Ansari’s phone first. But Ansari says that, in ways small and large, he wants his show to feel authentic as well as funny. Before the bedroom scene was scripted, he recorded an improv conversation with Noel Wells, who plays Rachel. “I said, ‘Let’s pretend we just had sex and the condom broke,’ and I used that to help us craft the dialogue.” Along with putting out “Master of None,” this year Ansari joined forces with sociologist Eric Klinenberg to publish “Modern Romance,” a researchbased meditation on finding love. What he learned has definitely informed “Master,” he says, “although I didn’t want to do what might be called a dating show.” “Master” isn’t. Besides his amorous adventures with Rachel, Dev hangs with a crowd played by cast members includ-

ing Eric Wareheim, Lena Waithe and Kelvin Yu. He also has an onscreen mother and dad, portrayed by Fatima and Shoukath Ansari (on hiatus from his regular job as a gastroenterologist), who happen to be the star’s real-life parents. Ansari was raised in tiny Bennettsville, South Carolina, where, despite his minority status, he recalls being targeted no more harshly than were the fat kid, the new kid and other outsiders. “My skin color and different background was just the thing kids made fun of when they made fun of ME,” he explains. “But for the most part, it was OK.” He enrolled as a marketing student at New York University, where his future vocation suggested itself in the stories he’d spin for chums that kept them in stitches. “They’d say, ‘You should do one of those New Talent nights at the comedy clubs,” he recalls. “So I did one and I enjoyed it. “But my voice as a comedian has continued to evolve into more complicated ideas: deeper stuff about race, my immigrant parents, police brutality. The real trick isn’t just making it funny, but getting the audience to think, ‘You’ve found a deeper insight that strikes a chord with me.’” Still, it doesn’t always have to be complicated. “Like, I was feeling frustrated how I don’t read enough books. All these great books, and I’m wasting time looking at Ludacris’ Instagram page! So I talk about that onstage and when people laugh, I realize I’m not the only one. “Once you develop a voice, you can share things that might seem specific to you. But they’re universal, and everyone will respond.”

But the box office numbers in North America were still especially low, especially for two of Hollywood’s top stars. The Weinstein Co.’s “Burnt,” starring Cooper as a former top chef in Paris, took in $5 million despite playing on more than 3,000 screens. “Our Brand Is Crisis,” David Gordon Green’s true tale of political strategists in Bolivia, managed a scant $3.4 million on 2,202 screens for Warner Bros. Though made for a modest $28 million, the film’s opening marks the worst wide-release debut of a movie headlined by Bullock, even falling below the $4.7 million of “Two if by Sea” in 1996.

Sony Pictures Classics “Truth,” which recounts CBS’ reporting on President George W. Bush’s military service, expanded to 1,120 theaters, but couldn’t even crack $1 million. It earned just $901,000. Paramount Pictures’ “Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse” grossed just $1.8 million on 1,509 screens. Paramount is experimenting with a shortened theatrical window for the film, along with the recently opened “Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Dimension.” Thus far, the trial has yielded mixed results. Major theater chains aside from AMC and Cineplex have refused to play the films, which will be made available digitally 17 days after they leave theaters.

Activity: The Ghost Dimension” all failed to crack $11 million. “Next week, the whole complexion of this will change,” says Paul Dergarabedian, senior media analyst for box office data firm Rentrak. “But I think this is a really good lesson learned for Hollywood that if you have too much product — particularly aimed at older audiences — you’re going to fragment the audience to the point where a lot of movies are going to become casualties of that crowded marketplace.” The two weeks of debuts have also been populated mainly by poorly reviewed movies with the exception of the acclaimed but much criticized “Steve Jobs.” Instead, the October successes are mostly movies roundly considered good, made by veteran directors: Scott’s “The Martian” and Steven Spielberg’s “Bridge of Spies.”

Performers include Mahan Esfahani in a harpsichord recital Nov. 17; Dr. Lonnie Smith on jazz organ Dec. 7; Spencer Myer on piano Jan. 28; Richard Goode on piano March 3; and the Aizuri Quartet with Michael Rusinek on clarinet in the concluding concert March 14. Four of the five concerts are presented at the Caine Performance Hall on USU’s Logan campus at 7:30 p.m. The jazz organ concert featuring Dr. Lonnie Smith will be held at the Morgan Theatre in the

Tickets can be purchased at the CCA Box Office located in room L101 in the Chase Fine Arts center or online at usu.edu/wassermann. In 1980, Wassermann established the Music West Festival at USU with the goal of providing quality educational opportunities for local music students. He wanted students to be exposed to world-class artists and world-class performances, opportunities that were not readily available at the time. In honor of Wassermann’s vision, the festival
he created was renamed the Wassermann Festival upon his retirement from USU. Wassermann’s original intent is close to Hirst’s own vision and ideal. “As Wassermann Festival director, I am committed to upholding Mr. Wassermann’s legacy,” Hirst said. “He believed that students should hear great performances by great artists and that’s been my goal as well.” When Hirst assumed leadership of the Wassermann Festival, it was primarily a piano festival featuring one concert pianist teaching four days of classes and then performing a solo recital. It became apparent to Hirst that was a lot to
Red Ramblers to play Logan The Bridger Folk Music Society will sponsor a concert featuring The Red Desert Ramblers at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 21, at the First Presbyterian Church, 178 W. Center St. Tickets to see the Salt-lake City-based group are $15 and may be purchased in advance by calling 535-1408 or visiting bridgerfolk.org. The Red Desert Ramblers play bluegrass and classic country and swing music, blending harmonies with “smoking” instrumental breaks. They are a regional band with national recognition. Having a hammered dulcimer in the band distinguishes the Ramblers from other Bluegrass bands in both a traditional and progressive way. Sharon Mitchell, the group’s leader and hammered dulcimist, draws from her old time roots, and all the members of the band are versatile, with wide-ranging musical experiences and tastes. The group plays many festivals, including Pickin’ in the Pines in Flagstaff,

ask of a single artist, so he soon began bringing in several to “divide the load.” That led to offering more than one concert, but at times that scheduling became too much for the concert audience. With that in mind, Hirst was drawn more to the concert series approach and he wanted to keep the goals consistent with the original intent of providing first-rate performers and performances for the students at USU and members of the community. And while the 2015-16 iteration includes two solo piano recitals, it’s expanded to include a string quartet, a woodwind artist, organ and harpsichord.
Gingerbread house show returns to downtown With the holiday season here, it’s time again for the annual Parade of Gingerbread Homes in downtown Logan. Area culinary architects are invited to submit entries into the 16th Annual Parade of Gingerbread Homes. Entries may depict any architectural structure, either real or imaginary. The event has grown into a much loved local tradition, not only for those who might enter a gingerbread house, but for those who participate by voting on their favorite edible wonderland. This year, each entry will have a chance to win one of three $100 grand prizes for the “Best of Show.” The public will have a chance to vote beginning Saturday, Dec. 5. Official entry forms and a complete list of rules are available at logandowntown.org. For more information on the Parade of Gingerbread Homes, contact Gary Saxton at 752-2161 ext. 4.

Honoring the legacy of its founder and namesake, Utah State University’s Wassermann Festival returns, in a way, to its roots in its newly expanded form as a concert series. The changes are inspired by the original intent of Irving Wassermann “Through the festival, we celebrate Mr. Wassermann’s love of music and teaching,” Hirst said. “He wanted to bring great music performances to campus for our students and, by extension, to our community. We owe a lot to Mr. Wassermann for that vision.” This year’s Wassermann Festival can more accurately be called the Wassermann
