Opera Company Presents Trio of Absurd, Eerie and Unexpected Works
Director/Chairman MPHS
For All Your Foot Care Needs
he Delaware Valley Opera Company presents an unique trio of operas that will intrigue, send chills down your spine, and make you laugh. The Medium by Gian Carlo Menotti and Giacomo Puccini’s Gianni Schicchi (or “Johnny” in DVOC’s production) are familiar works to many opera fans. They are joined by Black Horses, a new work written by Philadelphia-area composer Misha Dutka. Performances, all sung in English, take place at Venice Island Performing Arts and Recreation Center in Manayunk on July 8, 12 and 16.
T
corner of Haverford ave. at 7331 brentwood rd., Philadelphia, Pa 19131
Delaware Valley Opera Company’s “Schicchi” cast from left – Elizabeth Oliver, David Price, David Perelman, Tiffany Nack, Andrew Shaw, Andrea Broido, and Brian McKay. In “Johnny” Schicci, money-grubbing relatives gather at the bedside of their “dearly departed” uncle in South Philly, eager to learn what he’s left them in his will. But the bum left them nothing! All is lost! Unless.... Enter Johnny Schicci, a crafty neighbor. He has a fool-proof plan.... Except, this is a family of fools! (This particular adaptation is based on a staging concept by DVOC founder, James Wiest.) The Medium is set in the 1930s, where Babba runs a successful séance scam with her daughter and a stray mute boy. Her reluctant partners are the performers of parlor tricks that keep the customers coming back. But Babba crosses a line – in her conscience? in her psyche? – and soon it is impossible for the woman to tell where the trick ends and the real supernatural begins. Dutka’s Black Horses is based on a story by absurdist writer Luigi Pirandello about a team of horses preparing to pull a princess’s carriage. The horses reflect that they once lead a pampered life in a princess’s stable, until the new motorcars came into fashion with the wealthy, and they were sold to a cargo company. A jarring realization hits them when they meet their former employer in an unexpected way. The idea for Black Horses, which will be presented in concert version, came to Dutka while reading a series of children’s stories. “I found the Pirandello story in a children’s book of short stories about horses I happened to read, and it immediately suggested itself as a perfect theme for an opera,” Dutka said. “I changed the characters a bit – the original just had Fofo and a silent Nero, so I added the Zelda character for the musical interplay. I also reworked the text significantly, especially in the second movement, turning a few narrative phrases into a series of rhyme-schemes that make up the final pages of the libretto.” The piece is rhythmic with harmonic depth, yet Dutka says Black Horses is by far the simplest opera he’s ever written, with only two characters and a run time of 12 minutes. His other works include several pieces intended specifically for children, as well as The Stronger, about a stage diva squaring off against an old rival, and Liebovar, or The Little Blind Girl, a three-hour opera set in the Theresienstadt Concentration Camp. Black Horses falls in line with his works intended for a more mature audience. “In some ways, Black Horses is my favorite—like a poem that’s much easier to polish and perfect than a novel. The final theme, where the horses come to the realization that ‘only when humans suffer can we be truly free,’ may be the most beautiful melody I’ve ever written,” he said. Dutka’s melodies evoke the movements of the horses in addition to driving the story forward. “For me, setting text to music is a three-step process. First, I try to feel the rhythm of the words. Every sentence, every phrase has its own natural rhythm. Once I’ve discovered that rhythm, I try to create the melodic line around it that best conveys the sense and the emotion of the words,” he said, adding that, “any time there’s an innately melodic or rhythmic element in the text of an opera, it provides a musical opportunity. In Black Horses, one of the most enjoyable figures to write was the lead-in, just before the singers’ entrances, where staccato figures in the strings and winds depict the horses as they start moving, at first slowly, then faster and faster, building to the the tempo of the first vocal lines.” Theresa Seri, stage director for The Medium and “Johnny” Schicchi, takes the rhythms and melodies set out by Menotti and Puccini, and uses them to guide her work. “Good composers give you nearly everything you need to know within the music. You just have to follow their lead. The music can often dictate how a character should move, what they are feeling at that moment, even if it is in contrast to what they are singing, or set a general mood for a scene, much like a backdrop. I listen for those moments and go from there.” Seri had her work cut out for her with these two pieces; they very different dramatically and they have large casts that are

I wanted to show realistically the brutality exhibited by Baba and the ravages of alcoholism. I also wanted to leave a question in the audience’s mind. Menotti does not specifically say whether the voices and experiences that Baba has are a result of her drinking, paranoia, or real. I thought, though Baba is a selfprofessed fake, what if there was a real presence at work. What if someone was a real medium able to channel spirits, even unwittingly? I hope people leave the performance with many questions.” With Schicchi, Seri had the additional challenge of restaging the Schicchi concept of DVOC founder James Wiest, who passed away in 2011. “Gianni Schicchi is a farce. I went for as many laughs as possible because I know that’s what Jim would want. There are many current day references that help us laugh at ourselves. But the family, as comical as they are, is greedy. It’s a big problem still today. Though I can’t imagine anyone being this ridiculous, I think the exaggeration heightens a point about people with money always wanting more.” “It’s the first time that I staged something that was someone else’s concept. I was honored and a bit daunted when asked to do this. I of course want to be faithful to his concept and honor him, but I also did not want to do a cookie cutter show. So I updated it to today, since when he first did it, it was ‘present day.’ But that was over 20 years ago. So some of the references had to be changed to make sense in 2017. I did change most of the staging for several reasons. Some is just my own preference and some because it’s a different venue. I hope that I struck the right chord and balance between what is Jim’s and what is mine,” Seri said. The Casts: Black Horses: Zelda: soprano Elizabeth Oliver; Fofo: tenor David Price. The Medium: Madame Flora – mezzo-soprano Paula RiveraDantagnan; Monica – soprano Elizabeth Holmes; Mr. Gobineau – tenor David Price; Mrs. Gobineau – soprano Cassia Youngeun Lee; Mrs. Nolan – mezzo-soprano Emily Byrne; Toby (non-singing role) – Josh Gold. “Johnny” Schicchi: Johnny Schicchi – bass-baritone Grant Mech; Lauretta – soprano Charlea Lyn Grieco; Rinuccio – tenor Zachary Sigafoes; Zita – soprano Tiffany Nack; Amantio di Nicolao – bass-baritone Dan Schauble; Betto – baritone Brian McKay; Gherardo – tenor David Price; Ciesca – soprano Andrea Broido; Guccio – baritone Adam Gold; Nella – soprano Elizabeth Oliver; Marco – baritone Andrew Shaw; Simone – bass-baritone David Perelman; Spinilloccio – baritone Alan Edelstein; Pinellino – baritone Phil Lachenmayer; Gherardino – treble Henry Parson.

Allen St., Philadelphia. Visit www.redcrossblood.org/WMGK2017 for information. All presenting donors will receive a free T-shirt plus one free lawn ticket to see Foreigner and Cheap Trick in concert on July 13 at the BB&T Pavilion in Camden, New Jersey. Participants will also have the opportunity to meet WMGK DJs and staff throughout the day. Free event parking is available at 1025 N. Front St., Philadelphia. Over the past five years of partnership with WMGK, the Red Cross has collected over 1,200 pints of blood, with more than 300 presenting donors expected to attend the July 9 drive in Philadelphia. “This drive is so important in helping us maintain an adequate blood supply during the summer—a time when blood donations historically decrease because of vacations and schools being out of session,” said Alana Mauger, external communications manager for the Red Cross Penn-Jersey Blood Services Region. “The demand for blood doesn’t take a vacation. Our region must collect approximately 1,000 units of blood and platelets daily to meet patient need regardless of the season.” Blood cannot be manufactured. Healthy, volunteer blood donors are the only source of blood and platelets for those in need of transfusions. Volunteer blood donors of all types —particularly O negative, A negative and B negative are needed to help maintain a stable blood supply this summer. Appointments for the “Rock N’ Roll Up Your Sleeve” blood drive are required and can be made by calling 1-800-RED CROSS or visiting www.redcrossblood.org and using sponsor code WMGK. To learn more about the drive, visit www.redcrossblood.org/WMGK2017. Blood donors can now save time at their next donation by using RapidPass to complete their pre-donation reading and health history questionnaire online, on the day of their donation, from a home or work computer prior to arriving at the blood drive. To get started and learn more, visit www.redcrossblood.org/RapidPass and follow the instructions on the site.

Old Academy Players’ “Summer One-Act Bonanza” Continued from front page
to take to him to task! For what? You’ll never believe what he’s done. MATINEE is written by Jim Fryer and directed by Judy Van Buskirk. World Premiere Shakespeare appealed to the common man, right? Purely and simply they were his target audience. So did the ‘common man’ in Elizabethan times talk about him and his players the way we talk about movies, actors, and directors today? SURPRISE is written by Mark Harvey Levine and directed by Mark Rohland. Suppose you were dating someone who could read your thoughts and see into the future—but only two minutes into it? That’s the challenge that faces a young couple in “Surprise.” Lovers think they can finish each other’s sentences, but it might be a drag when one of them does it all the time! ARE THERE BLINTZES ON MARS? is written by Dorothea Cahan and directed by Pat Pelletreau. A Jewish family tries to talk Sophie out of moving to Mars by reminding her of all of her ‘favorite’ things. Her boyfriend tries to rescue her, but her Bubbe supports her dream. THE WORLD’S OLDEST LIVING DRAG QUEEN is written by Rob Rosiello and directed by Chris Wunder. What is retirement age for a Drag Queen? When are the glitter and the glory relegated to but a memory? Or is there a time limit on being fabulous? Lady Constance laments the possibility that her days in the shimmering spotlight may be gone – until she meets the mother of all Drag Queens – Glorianna, the self proclaimed World’s Oldest Living Drag Queen! Does Fabulousness have a limit? Lady Constance is about to find out! CROSSROADS BAR is written and directed by Jillian Bosmann. Two high school best friends meet in a bar after falling out of contact. While catching up on what’s new with each other, they realize maybe they didn’t know each other as well as they always thought. DAWNING OF THE SILVER IRIS is written by Rob Rosiello, and directed by Charlotte Higgins. An audition has unexpect-
ed consequences. Wil learns that emotions run high at this theater, even after death. JUGGLING ACT is written by Lisa Lutwyche and directed by Blanca Beadle. This World Premiere is a one-act satire of corporate America. What if the only person HR can find for the job is some random clown? The stellar casts include: Natalie Bonacci, Clint Cleaver, Kellie Cooper, Jim Golden, Marc Johnson, Norma Kider, Benjamin Kuss, Susan Lonker, Michele Loor Nicolay, Nolan Maher, Chuck Mueller, Olivia Quinci, Josh Rothstein, Elliott Rotman, Gabi Singh, Jay Steinberg, Browning Sterling, Matthew Thompson, and George Webster. Show times are Friday and Saturday at 8 p.m. and Sunday at 2 p.m. Tickets are $15. Old Academy welcomes groups! If you have 15 or more in your party, you can take advantage of group discount pricing. Parking for all performances is free. For information and reservations, call 215-843-1109 or visit the theatre’s website at www.oldacademyplayers.org. Free parking on site. Founded in 2009 by Old Academy member, the late Chris Schenk, the “Summer One-Act Bonanza” is an opportunity to feature new playwrights and directors on the Old Academy stage. Chris, who spent four years with Old Academy as an actor, writer, producer, publicity chairperson and newsletter editor, produced the first two seasons of the One-Acts until moving to Chicago. Chris developed cancer. He lost his fight with cancer in March 2012, but his legacy lives on through this delightful annual event. Old Academy Players, where Grace Kelly and Robert Prosky began acting, is a 501(c) (3) non-profit community theater in East Falls (Philadelphia), the urban village on the Schuylkill River. Constructed in 1819, the Old Academy building has been the OAP home since 1932. Old Academy Players, providing continuous community theater since 1923, is a member of the Greater Philadelphia Cultural Alliance.

HAVE A HAPPY 4TH OF JULY! “Freedom Blast!” at Fort Mifflin July 2 ort Mifflin celebrates Independence Day with a blast – “Freedom Blast!” on Sunday, July 2, from 10 a.m. till 4 p.m. Journey through the Declaration of Independence at a site that defended Philadelphia against the greatest bombardment of the American Revolution. Participate in the Flag Raising Ceremony, then stay to enjoy guided tours, blacksmithing and heritage craft demonstrations plus hands-on living history activities, uniform, weapon and cannon demonstrations. Join the Army (circa 1777) and learn to drill with a wooden musket! Enjoy the view and the breeze in the riverfront picnic area. FREE parking. Originally built by the British in 1771, Fort Mifflin supported the American Revolution by delaying the re-supply of British forces occupying the rebel capital of Philadelphia in November, 1777. Between British warships on the Delaware and their troops in Philadelphia sat a humble fort of wood and stone, defended by some of the most determined men of the American Revolution. Fort Mifflin did not allow the British Fort Mifflin celebrates Independence Day with Navy to go easily into Philadelphia. For six long weeks, fighting against “Freedom Blast!” on Sunday, July 2, from cold, hunger and despair, with only scarce supplies, the soldiers on Mud 10 a.m. till 4 p.m. Photo/Scott Anderson Island fought to hold on to Fort Mifflin. Although ultimately defeated, the American defense was so courageous that even the British paid tribute: Ambrose Searle, General Howe’s personal secretary remarked, “They certainly defended it with a spirit they have shown no where else to an equal degree during the war.” The delay at Fort Mifflin provided General Washington time to establish winter quarters in Valley Forge. Too late in the season for British General Howe to give chase, the garrison at Fort Mifflin extended the war and allowed the American army time to regroup until the spring of 1778. Forever after that known as the “Valiant Defender of the Delaware,” the Fort was reconstructed beginning in the late 18th century and remained an active military post until 1954. Fort Mifflin is joining with many area arts and culture organizations over the July 4 holiday weekend in advocacy activities supporting funding for the humanities. Check out the #SaveTheArts photo and postcard writing opportunities at this event! In lieu of Fort Mifflin’s special event admission fees, the organization invites visitors to “pay what you wish” to demonstrate your support of arts and culture in our community.

Rosemont Announces New Strategic Plan for Enhancement of College Athletics s a part of an extension of the overall strategic plan, Rosemont College Athletics Department is slated for major enhancements. With approval by the Board of Trustees, Director of Athletics, Lynn Rothenhoefer, recently announced a new, innovative, three-year strategic plan specifically for athletics which, when extended an additional two years, will include highlights such as the addition of five new athletic teams. The third goal of the overall strategic plan is to “improve the student experience” and the Ravens will be making improvements in personnel, facilities, and more to align with the campus-wide vision. This year, 2017-2018, Rosemont will start its recruiting for women’s golf, adding to the list of seven current female teams. Along with the addition, an indoor golf practice facility will be developed, which will be utilized by the women’s team, as well as the men’s team. The men’s golf team finished the 2017 season at second place in the Colonial States Athletic Conference Championships and made significant moves in national (57th) and regional (5th) rankings since last season’s seventh place finish in the Conference tournament. In 2019, the Ravens will begin recruiting for field hockey, which will take the number of women’s teams to nine. Along with the opening of the new Community Center (a renovation and large expansion of Cardinal Hall), which will include an allcollege fitness center, the current fitness center will be transitioned and upgraded into a student-athletes only strength

and conditioning space. The new Community Center will also include a space for use by the volleyball and tennis programs. After women’s golf and field hockey have begun competing in 2019 and 2020 respectively, track and field will be added for both men and women. With approval of the next two years in the plan from the Board, men’s volleyball will begin recruiting in 2021. The addition of five new teams is not the only upgrades to the department. Several coaches are expected to be elevated to full-time employment status by taking on additional athletic administrative responsibilities. The tennis courts will be evaluated for upgrades early on in the plan and a feasibility study and renovations (per the study) of Alumnae Hall will follow shortly after. Plans are also being made to increase the recruiting allotment for all head coaches as of the 2020 fiscal year.

hiladelphia’s only outdoor roller skating rink is back this summer for its third season and opened to record breaking crowds Memorial Day Weekend. And, to ensure that the 2017 summer on the waterfront will be the most exciting yet, a new section, The Summerfest Midway, made its debut June 23, as the finishing touch in completing Philadelphia’s urban boardwalk. And what would a boardwalk be without rides and games? The Midway’s main attraction is without a doubt the 60-foot Ferris Wheel ($4 per person to ride) offer rides with panoramic views across the river and a birds eye view of Blue Cross RiverRink Summerfest and beyond. Operated by Skelly’s Amusements, The Midway features a 60-foot, 16 gondola Ferris Wheel, accompanied by a carousel ($3 per person to ride). The Ferris Wheel will operate from The Midway’s opening on June 23 through July 9. The popular Pharoah’s Fury swinging boat ride ($4 per person to ride) will bring new energy and shake things up (literally!) from July 10 through July 23 at which point the Ferris Wheel will return and run through August 14. A Typhoon Magic Carpet ride ($4 per person to ride) will cap off the season. In short, the carousel will be a permanent attraction throughout Summerfest, while the featured ride will change between the Ferris Wheel, the Pharoah’s Fury swinging boat ride, and the Typhoon Magic Carpet ride. Of course, boardwalk entertainment would not be complete without a collection of exciting games and the chance to win great prizes. The Midway will include six pay-as-you-go games including: Water Race ($3 per player); Basketball game ($2 a shot or 3 for $5); Balloon Bust (3 darts for $5); High Striker/Ring the Bell game (3 swings for $5, everyone wins a prize); Cork Gun game ($5 to play, players keep shooting until they win); Break a plate game (3 balls for $5). Rides operate: Monday through Thursday: 1 p.m. - 10:30 p.m.; Friday: 1 p.m. - 12:30 a.m.; Saturday: 11 a.m. - 12:30 a.m.; Sunday: 11 a.m. - 10:30 p.m. Enjoy Midway Games: Monday through Thursday: 5 p.m. - 10:30 p.m.; Friday: 5 p.m. - 12:30 a.m.; Saturday: 11 a.m. - 12:30 a.m.; Sunday: 11 a.m. - 10:30 p.m. Blue Cross RiverRink Summerfest complements its fellow waterfront attractions; Race Street Pier, Pier 68, Washington Ave. Pier, and Spruce Street Harbor Park sustained by Univest Bank and Trust Co. (SSHP) on the Delaware River Waterfront, and provides a strong summertime counterpart to the ever-popular Blue Cross RiverRink Winterfest. The roller skating rink, which is made possible by the continued generosity of Independence Blue Cross, provides a fantastic outdoor summer activity for family, friends and date nights. The Artful Golfer is the place to practice your mini-golf game and enjoy the artwork of local artist, Peter Slavin, whose work now graces each of the nine holes along the course. Blue Cross RiverRink Summerfest is open seven days a week through Labor Day. Chickie’s and Pete’s Waterfront Crabshack is back by popular demand, this year with the addition of weekly Thursday night all-you-can-eat snow crab feasts for $40 per person. The airconditioned space features picnic tables with paper table covering, crab pots, and beachthemed décor. Ice cream and treats from Franklin Fountain offer sweet relief on hot summer nights. Paired with the continued activity at Spruce Street Harbor Park, weekly themed nights, weekend programming and special events throughout the summer, the third season of Blue Cross RiverRink Summerfest has already begun to set the idyllic scene to enjoy summer days and nights. Fireworks Schedule Blue Cross RiverRink Summerfest goers can enjoy as many as five fireworks shows over the river throughout the summer. • June 30 at 9:30 p.m. – The Philadelphia Orchestra Neighborhood Concert presented by Wells Fargo and Wawa Welcome America Fireworks presented by Comcast NBCUniversal & Pyrotecnico over the Delaware River Waterfront. • July 1 at 9:30 p.m. – United States Army Band “Pershing’s Own” and Wawa Welcome America Fireworks presented by Comcast NBCUniversal & Pyrotecnico over the Delaware River Waterfront. • July 4 at 9:30 p.m. – Wawa Welcome America Fireworks presented by Comcast NBCUniversal & Pyrotecnico over the Benjamin Franklin Parkway. • July 4 at 9:30 p.m. – Freedom Festival Fireworks at Wiggins Park over the Delaware River Waterfront.
