LY R I C F E S T P R E S E N T S C O N C E RT Youth Concert Delightful Way to Bring Classics to Children oungsters (recommended ages 3 - 12) and their adult companions will enter a world of cowboys, fairies, elves, valkyries and other costumed characters of mirth and merriment as Lyric Fest presents a family concert at the Main Line Reform Temple on Sunday, October 27 at 3 p.m., 410 Montgomery Avenue, Wynnewood, PA. Comprised primarily of classical arias and songs from opera as well as Broadway musicals and film classics. “Character” pieces from Carmen to Hansel and Gretel, Don Quixote to Don Juan, Dorothy to the Grinch come together with narration by the performers.

Highlights include: Chadwick Somers as the cowboy bringing to life Charles Ives, Bernstein and Mozart; Jeffry Halili comes in from the cold via Brahms and fights some bulls in a Granada duet; Chrystal Williams weaves Bizet’s Carmen as well as Holby’s “Jabberwocky” and other pieces into her character; Rebecca Carr slithers and hisses with Holby’s “The Serpent” and dances with witches from Hansel and Gretel; Jason Switzer “Dreams the Impossible Dream” but shows another side singing, “You’re a Mean One Mr. Grinch;” and Jessica Lennick takes the show “Over the Rainbow” and through the woods to Mozart’s Papagena.

French With An Oriental Flair

he Stagecrafters theater in Chestnut Hill opened its 2013-2014 season on Friday, September 13 with the production of Tracy Letts’ gripping comedy-drama, “Superior Donuts.” As the action commences, we meet Arthur Przybyszewski, an aging hippie running a down-at-the-heels donut shop in Chicago’s Uptown section, disconnected from his family and barely making ends meet, struggling just to show up every morning to make the coffee and donuts. But his life changes big time when Franco Wicks, a young, energetic and enthusiastic would-be writer, shows up to work there, itching to show Arthur a thing or two about fixing his business. Letts deftly weaves a story of human hopes, failures, and triumphs that unfolds with poignancy and humor, which draws you in before you even realize it, and holds you there until the final riveting climax. Tracy Letts (b. 1965), the playwright who received the Pulitzer Prize for Drama and multiple awards for his seminal “August: Osage County” in 2008, has for many years been a prime mover of Chicago’s Steppenwolf Theatre Company. His “Superior Donuts” premiered there the same year, then opened for a Broadway run in September, 2009. Letts has also enjoyed an successful career as an actor, being seen in nearly twenty productions, and he recently appeared in the Broadway revival of Edward Albee’s “Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?.” The play has been produced widely in regional theaters all over the country. Upcoming performance dates are September 19, 20, 21, 26, 27, 28 at 8 p.m., September 22 & 29 at 2 p.m. Tickets are available at $17 Online (no service charge), $20 At-door.

ety of the U.S. (TAFSUS), Turks @ Penn, the American Research Center in Turkey (ARIT) and the Middle East Center at the University of Pennsylvania. No Turkish Day would be complete without belly dancing, and the Penn student group Penn Yalla promises to shake things up—with an open Belly Dance Workshop at 1:30 p.m. At 1:00 p.m. and again at 3:30 p.m., the Turquoise Turkish Folk Dance Group from Penn State University performs traditional Turkish dances—and invites the audience to join in. Turkey has a magnificent past, and contains archaeological sites of more than a dozen successive civilizations spanning 10,000 years. Dr. C. Brian Rose, Penn Museum curator and excavation director at the famous archaeological site of Gordion, Turkey – where Alexander the Great is said to have cut the Gordion knot, and King Midas to have met his end – is just back from a 2013 season at the site. He will share what he and his colleagues have recently learned at a 2:00 p.m. talk. Mr. Halil Demirdelen, Deputy Director of the Museum of Anatolian Civilizations, Ankara, offers an interactive table to explore more about the rich archaeology of Turkey, throughout the afternoon. The Republic of Turkey was founded in October of 1923, as the once great Ottoman Empire, weakened by World War I, came to an end. At 2:45 p.m., Dr. Mehmet Darakcioglu, Associated Director of Penn’s Middle East Center, and Wharton senior Naz Özbek offer insights and perspective at a short panel discussion that focuses on “Democracy in Turkey Today.” Kids of all ages can stop by at an open crafts table, where they can create a whirling Turkish dancer – using paper plates, marshmallows and craft sticks – to play with and take home. Turkish food is yet another delight included in the day. The Museum’s Pepper Mill Café features Turkish cuisine on its menu, as well as other family-friendly foods and snacks. One more delight! Visitors can try a free sample of Turkish delight, a popular sweet enjoyed in Turkey and around the world—while supplies last! The Penn Museum (the University of Pennsylvania Museum

Immaculata University Launches Anti-Bullying Campaign mmaculata University (IU) is launching a campaign to join in the national fight against bullying. Mac, the University’s mascot, is spreading the important message: Speak up, Be Mighty, – if you see it or hear it, report it. IU’s anti-bullying campaign is geared toward IU students but is applicable to people of all ages off campus as well. Immaculata has created a website http://www.immaculata.edu/speakup with tips for recognizing if you, a friend or a family member may be a victim of bullying or if you, yourself, are participating in bullying behavior. The website also provides numerous resources, both on-campus and off, for putting an end to bullying. IU is using Mac, Immaculata’s mascot, as the face of the campaign. Mac makes the anti-bullying message accessible by being an identifiable University symbol. Immaculata hopes that other schools, organizations, and businesses will use their own mascots to spread the word about the dangers of bullying. Visit www.immaculata.edu/speakup/downloads/ to join Mac in this important campaign in your own place of business. Various types of bullying occur every day in grade schools,

high schools and universities, on sports teams, in the workplace, and online. The goal of Immaculata’s Speak Up, Be Mighty anti-bullying campaign is to raise awareness, identify the many situations and ways in which someone may be bullied, and equip students and the public with the tools and resources to cope with and put an end to bullying. “Bullying impacts us all either directly through our own experiences or indirectly through the impact on [those around us.] Bullying disrupts our sense of comfort and security,” commented Maria Cuddy-Casey, Ph.D., associate professor of Psychology at Immaculata. “Immaculata has taken a stand against bullying behavior in order to protect our culture of caring for each member of the IU community. Please join me in embracing this culture of caring and support one another with kind words. Speak out against bullying…be mighty …stop bullying!” Immaculata University is a Catholic, comprehensive, coeducational institution of higher education, located on the Main Line between Malvern and Exton, 20 miles west of Philadelphia.

Free Legal Workshop and Clinic for LGBT Older Adults o provide lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender (LGBT) older adults in the Delaware Valley with information about legal issues faced regarding estate and life-care planning, a free legal workshop and clinic will be held Saturday, September 28, 2013, at William Way LGBT Community Center in Philadelphia, PA. The workshop/clinic, which begins at 11:00 a.m., is sponsored by the all-volunteer LGBT Elder Initiative (LGBTEI) and a coalition of legal service providers and community organizations. The event, including preparation of legal documents, is free and open to the public but pre-registration is required. “LGBT people face specific and unique legal issues with regard to estate and life-care planning,” said Heshie Zinman, chair of the Elder Initiative. The LGBTEI fosters and advocates for services, resources and institutions that are competent, culturally sensitive, inclusive, and responsive to the needs of LGBT elders. Zinman adds that it is estimated that over 30 percent of LGBT older adults do not have appropriate legal documentation in place. For LGBT people these documents are especially important because the law does not recognize relationships with partners, family or friends in the same way as for heterosexual people. Without legally executed documentation the

wishes of an incapacitated or deceased person who is LGBT may be disregarded or contested. A brief workshop will be held before the Clinic. The workshop will outline the necessity of documents and which documents will protect the interests of LGBT elders and their loved ones. These documents include Wills, Living Wills, Financial and Medical Powers-of-Attorney, and Disposition of Remains. In order to have these documents completed with the help of an attorney, pre-registration is required. To register or receive additional information, please e-mail your name and telephone number to info@lgbtei.org or call 267-546-3448. The LGBTEI Legal Clinic is free and open to the public. It will begin at 11:00 a.m. at the William Way Community Center, 1315 Spruce St., Philadelphia. Lunch will be provided. All legal professionals involved are donating their time on a volunteer basis. The LGBT Elder Initiative was founded in 2010 and hosts educational events, disseminates information to the LGBT community and provides cultural competency training to providers in the health and aging services networks.

Broad Street, Philadelphia, PA 19102). The Aurora Australis, or Southern Lights, is a stunning natural lighting phenomenon visible in South America. With Aurora Astralis, Astral celebrates another South American phenomenon—music by some of the continent’s most gifted and prolific composers. The concert includes the Philadelphia premiere of Grammy Award winner Osvaldo Golijov’s Ayre, Alberto Ginastera’s Impresiones de la Puna, and works with roots in Brazilian and Venezuelan folk songs and dances. Tickets are $30 for General Admission, $25 for Senior Citizens, and $5 for Students under 30 with I.D., and can be purchased by calling Ticket Philadelphia at 215-893-1999 or by visiting www.KimmelCenter.org. “Aurora Astralis is a thrilling opening for our 2013–2014 concert season. With repertoire representing the South American bounty of dynamic works, come prepared to be transfixed by the electrifying rhythms and sonorities of these vibrant cultures,” says Vera Wilson, Astral’s President and Founder. In its Philadelphia premiere, performed with minimal amplification by a 12-person chamber ensemble of Astral artists and guests, Osvaldo Golijov’s Ayre spotlights Astral soprano Kathryn Guthrie, as well as harpist Bridget Kibbey (an Astral alumna) and accordionist Michael Ward-Bergeman, both of whom also appear on the work’s 2005 Grammy-nominated Deutsche Grammophon recording. Andrew Hauze conducts Ayre, with texts in Ladino, Arabic, Hebrew, Sardinian, and Spanish that encompass a wide range of human experiences—from love and jealousy, to rage, religious yearning, and prayer. The second half of the program features Alberto Ginastera’s Impresiones de la Puna for flute and string quartet as well as a set of harp/clarinet/percussion trios interspersed with works for solo harp, featuring Ms. Kibbey with Astral clarinetist Benito Meza and percussionist Gabriel Globus-Hoenich—Paquito D’Rivera’s Bandoneón, Heraclio Fernández’s El Diablo Suelto (Venezuelan joropo), Astor Piazzolla’s Café 1930, Jacob do Bandolim’s Currucha and Assanhado (Brazilian chorinho), and David Bruce’s Caja de Música.

The MG5K will feature cash awards and medals for top finishers as well as for the runner wearing the best classic rock inspired costume, music throughout the course and refreshments. The first 500 runners/walkers registered will receive a rockin’ MG5k t-shirt. The race is open to runners and walkers of all ages. Online entries are being accepted now at http://www.wmgk.com/news/story.aspx?id=2011174. The online entry fee is $25. Participants are also able to register on the day of the event. The day of registration fee is $30 for those 18 years of age and older and $25 for those under 18. Those under 18 years old must register on-site the day of the race and must be accompanied by a parent. Day of registration and pre-registration will take place between 7:30 a.m. and 9 a.m. The race will begin promptly at 9:30 a.m. There will be award presentations and a post-race party featuring the MGK House Band following the race. Roger Daltrey and Pete Townshend of The Who are the driving force behind Teen Cancer America. After over two decades working with Teenage Cancer Trust in the UK, the duo decided to bring their passion across the pond and make a difference in the lives of teens and young adults with cancer in the United States. The organization partners with hospitals to create youth-oriented centers for teens receiving treatment. Many teens with cancer end up in a hospital with no peers. They’re either treated in a pediatric facility alongside young children or in an adult hospital among much older people. Either situation leaves them feeling isolated and scared. Teen Cancer America helps hospitals develop care units designed to meet the specific needs of teens with cancer, giving them the very Hemophilia Charity 5K Run best chance of a positive outcome both physically and emotionally. For information, visit On Saturday, September 28, the Delaware Valley Chapter of the NHF will be holding the fourth annual www.teencanceramerica.org.

The event begins at 9:00 a.m. The kids run will begin at 8:45 a.m. and registration will open 7:30 a.m. For info, call 212-601-8128.
