lina, Livingston is the fourth child in a very musical family that includes Alex, James, Kate, and Hugh. Livingston recorded his first record at the age of 18 and has continued to create well crafted, introspective, and original songs that have earned him listeners worldwide.

From top-40 hits “I Will Be in Love with You” and “I’ll Come Running,” to “I Can Dream of You” and “Boatman,” the last two recorded by his brother James, Livingston’s creative output has continued unabated. His musical knowledge has inspired a varied repertoire, and he is equally at home with a range of musical genres – folk, pop, gospel, jazz – and from upbeat storytelling and touching ballads to full orchestra performances.

Livingston has never stopped performing since those early coffeehouse days, shared the stage with major artists such as Joni Mitchell, Linda Ronstadt, Fleetwood Mac, Jimmy Buffett, and Jethro Tull, and he maintains a See Livingston Taylor to Perform page 4

10 TH A NNUAL “C ELEBRATION OF H OMETOWN H EROES ” S CHEDULED FOR J UNE 11 he Main Line Chamber Foundation will host the 10th Annual “Celebration of Hometown Heroes” on Tuesday, June 11 at 6:30 p.m. in the Board Room of the Lower Merion Township Administration Building, 75 E. Lancaster Avenue in Ardmore, PA. The public is encouraged to attend as over $47,000 in scholarships will be distributed to 39 men and women who serve their communities.

With these latest awards The Main Line Chamber Foundation will have given out more than $440,000 in scholarships to area students, the vast majority of which attend local colleges and universities. The Celebration of Hometown Heroes event was created to draw attention to and show appreciation for the volunteer firefighters and emergency medical technicians who selflessly serve the Main Line and nearby areas.

“The citizens who receive these scholarships are among the first responders, day or night, when emergencies occur throughout the greater Main Line area,” said John Durso, chairman of The Main Line Chamber Foundation Board of Directors. “Residents often don’t realize what an important role these volunteers play in our communities, saving taxpayers millions of dollars that might otherwise go to fund

T

professional emergency responders. We believe it is important to celebrate their service and distribute the scholarship awards at a public ceremony that can shine a light on their invaluable contributions.”

A total of $47,250 in scholarships will be distributed to 39 volunteers at the 2019 “Celebration of Hometown Heroes” on June 11.

Most of the funds for the scholarship program are raised at the Giant Main Line Run/Walk, which will be held on Sunday, September 8 at 8:30 a.m. The 5 Kilometer run is accompanied by a popular 1.5 mile walk, making the event open to non-runners and increasing family participation. This will be the 22nd year of the event, which passes through the streets of Wayne, temporarily closing down Lancaster Avenue and neighborhood streets for safety.

On-line registration is available at www.mainlinerun.org.

Sponsorships for the Run/Walk and donations to The Main Line Chamber Foundation, a 501c3 non-profit organization, are accepted year-round. Giant has been the presenting sponsor for the event for five years. Visit www.mlcc.org for more information.

He is a natural performer, peppering his shows with personal stories, anecdotes and ineffable warmth that connect him to his fans. His relaxed on-stage presence belies the depth of his musical knowledge, and fans might just as often be treated to a classic Gershwin or something from the best of Broadway.

Livingston is a full professor at Berklee College of Music, where he has taught a Stage Performance course since 1989.

He teaches young artists invaluable lessons learned over the course of an extensive career on the road; the course is consistently voted the most popular at the College. His book, Stage Performance, released in 2011 offers those lessons to anyone who is interested in elevating their presentation standards to professional standards.

Livingston’s 50th year of making music was celebrated by Boston Mayor Marty Walsh and Massachusetts Governor Charlie Baker, both declaring January 18, 2017 “Livingston Taylor Day.” A documentary film entitled “Livingston Taylor: Life is Good” was released in 2018 at national and international film festivals. It has garnered many awards, nominations, and accolades, including The Van Gogh Award for the Feature Documentary category at the Amsterdam International Film Festival. The film premiered to the public on Amazon in November, 2018.

L ANTERN T HEATER C OMPANY P RESENTS P REMIERE OF “M INORS ”

June 5 – June 11, 2019

ARTS & CULTURE

Land, Sea and Airplane Day at Fort Mifflin

Continued from front page

Luzerne County in the early 2000s, this compelling new work of musical theater tells the story of four families fighting against a corrupt political machine that turned their children into commodities. The musical follows the children – middle and high school students, played by young professional actors – on their journey through the local criminal justice system. Incarcerated for minor infractions and without proper due process, they and their parents try to overcome a sense of helplessness in the face of institutional corruption, including judges taking bribes from the privately-owned prison operator who seeks to keep the cells fully occupied. Through song, the families express their frustrations with their present lives buffeted by economic and educational limitations, and their hopes for a better future.

Lantern Artistic Director Charles McMahon commissioned Lantern collaborators Kittson O’Neill and Robert Kaplowitz to create Minors, believing they were uniquely qualified to bring this story to the stage. “The scandal was seared into my memory as a quintessential example of the negative unintended consequences when public goods like justice are privatized,” McMahon said. McMahon was also confident that a musical was the theatrical form best suited to tell this story: “Musical theater, like opera, can often best serve as the emotionally resonant form of storytelling when injustice and tragedy are at stake. Music can play a powerful role in rousing our emotions – and in healing them.”

Philadelphia director, actor, and new play dramaturg Kittson O’Neill created the book and co-wrote the lyrics for Minors. In describing her inspiration, O’Neill explains “the potency of this story is that this injustice was visited on kids. For me, there is a really precious and magical thing that happens when you’re a teenager, which is this coming to understand the world you live in and your place in it. This kind of exploitation radically disrupts that in a way that, for some of these kids, was very difficult to ever repair.”

Robert Kaplowitz, O’Neill’s husband and writing partner, found his own inspiration in composing the play’s American roots rock music. While acknowledging that roots rock might be unexpected for a musical, Kaplowitz felt it was the right choice to tell the story of Minors. “Finding that way to have the driving energy of an electrically amplified instrument that sings in the same vocal range as the human and tells story has been a really interesting adventure.”

Lantern Theater Company will delve into the world of Minors on its Lantern Searchlight blog, available online at www.lanterntheater.org/searchlight. Published articles will explore the judicial scandal that inspired Minors, the push for privatization of our public services, polemical theater from Shaw to Brecht to today, the stylistic and thematic range of the modern American musical, and an expanded interview with creators Kittson O’Neill and Robert Kaplowitz. New content will be added throughout the production’s run.

Tickets for Minors are $28 - $43 and are available online at www.lanterntheater.org or by calling the Lantern Box Office at 215-829-0395. Discounts are available for students, seniors 65 and up, U.S. military personnel, and groups of 10 or more. Lantern Theater Company is located at St. Stephen’s Theater, 10th & Ludlow Sts. in Center City Philadelphia.

About the The College of Physicians of Philadelphia and Mütter Museum The College of Physicians of Philadelphia was founded in 1787 by a group of physicians including Dr. Benjamin Rush, a signer of our nation’s Declaration of Independence.

The College is home to the Mütter Museum, America’s finest museum of medical history, which displays collections of anatomical specimens, models and medical instruments in a nineteenth-century setting. This includes slides of Einstein’s Brain, the 139 skulls from Hyrtl’s collection, and a biannual rotation of art exhibits that accompany the themes and aims of the museum’s collections.

D ELAWARE VALLEY O PERA C OMPANY O PENS 40 TH A NNIVERSARY S EASON Adaptation of Giacomo Puccini’s “La Rondine” June 9 he Delaware Valley Opera Company opens its 40th Anniversary Summer Opera Festival on June 9 with an exciting retelling of Giacomo Puccini’s “La Rondine,” set in the thriving art scene of 1960s Paris.

The original story follows Magda, a courtesan, as she falls in love with Ruggero, a naïve young man who is unaware of her checkered past. Magda sees herself through Ruggero’s eyes, and wonders if she can leave her past behind and marry Ruggero.

Stage director Julia Mintzer has cleverly shifted the action forward in time without altering the story, while shedding a contemporary light on the struggle faced by an independent woman choosing between following her head and following her heart.

Mintzer explained her decision to update the opera to modern times: “I am looking at this early 20th century opera through a mid-late 20th century lens, moving it to the left bank in 1960 Paris. I am not changing the plot or any of the characters’ actions, rather, asking the audience to reconsider the intentions behind these actions. I believe this will show the ending of the opera to be a bittersweetly happy one, not a tragedy.”

The cast includes soprano Dana McIntosh as Magda; soprano Rachel Eve Holmes as Lisette; tenor Chris Lorge as Ruggero; tenor David Price as Prunier; baritone David Duke as Rambaldo; soprano Angela Antolino as Yvette; soprano Julie Smith as Bianca; and mezzo-soprano Amber Johnson as Suzy Performances will take place on June 9 at 3 p.m., and June 12 and 15 at 8 p.m., at Venice Island Performing Arts and Recreation Center, 7 Lock Street, Philadelphia, 19127. Tickets are $25 for adults; $20 for DVOC members, seniors and students with ID; and $12 for children ages 12 and under. Tickets can be purchased at the door and online at www.dvopera.org.

For information about DVOC visit the company’s website or call 215-725-4171.

Venice Island Performing Arts and Recreation Center is handicapped accessible is surrounded by a public metered parking lot. Additional parking, both metered and free, can be found throughout the neighborhood. For directions, contact VIPARC at 215-685-3583.

A familyfriendly festival promoting sustainability and conservation is headed back to town this month and you won’t want to miss it.

West Laurel Hill Cemetery will host the fifth annual “It’s a Green Thing Sustainability Fair” Saturday, June 15 from 1 to 5 p.m. The event once again takes place just inside the cemetery’s gates, located at 225 Belmont Ave., Bala Cynwyd, at the Barmouth Station section of the Cynwyd trail.

This rain-or-shine, outdoor festival benefits the Lower Merion Conservancy. The event is free and open to the public, though donations are encouraged. Leashed, well-behaved dogs are also welcome to attend. To RSVP, visit http://lmconservancy.org/event/sustainability-fair/.

Attendees are encouraged to walk or ride their bikes to the fair, as it is accessible via the Cynwyd Trail at the Barmouth Station Trailhead and there are places to lock bikes there. Additionally, parking is located on the cemetery grounds.

Come support local artisans and businesses, who are committed to making the world a greener place.

There will be food trucks, live music and a chance to tour Nature’s Sanctuary and meet the West Laurel Hill goats.

Over 20 local makers and green businesses will have vendor booths set up to sell their sustainable goods and services. This event will also feature a handful of community group tables, for such organizations as the Lower Merion Conservancy and Friends of the Cynwyd Heritage Trail.

West Laurel Hill will once again have its grazing goats from Philly Goat Project on display from 1 to 3 p.m. For the first time this year, event participants will be able to pet the goats.

West Laurel Hill will also have tours of its Nature Sanctuary, which is its award-winning, sustainable burial ground.

World Cafe Live is set to return to host a beer garden at this year’s event and will serve locally-brewed, sustainable beers. Food trucks will also be on hand for the day, including Rock N Rolls spring rolls and Wahlburgers burgers.

The fair will feature live bands performing family-friendly music all afternoon. Attendees are encouraged to bring lawn chairs and blankets to relax and enjoy the music on the lawn.

In addition, the Plastic Bag Monster will make an appearance for photos and a discussion about sustainability for children and their parents.

“Our annual sustainability fair is a perfect opportunity for local, green-conscious businesses to promote their products and for event participants to see the vast array of sustainable options available on the market that have a positive impact on the environment,” said Amy Chapkovich, program and communications coordinator, Lower Merion Conservancy. “We’re thankful for West Laurel Hill Cemetery for once again hosting this wonderful event and encourage everyone to stop by for a great afternoon.”

“We started the sustainability fair five years ago to help showcase those organizations and individuals who are striving to make the world a greener place, and to increase visibility of our own sustainable initiatives,” said Nancy Goldenberg, President and CEO of West Laurel Hill Cemetery and Funeral Home. “We take a holistic approach to sustainability and are very intentional in our efforts.

“As a result, our entire staff has made enormous progress in achieving our sustainability goals, which are focused in the areas of land conservation, energy and waste management, and employee wellness and engagement. We are most proud to be the only cemetery in the world to be SITES Gold Certified for our green burial area. We are looking forward to a greener future, not only within our gates but also throughout the many communities we serve.”
