Eating chile to fight cancer
IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD
Cook-off to raise money, awareness for Relay for Life by Svetlana Ozden news@dailylobo.com
UNM student Meghan Maes said the American Cancer Society helped her and her family cope with her liver cancer. Maes, who is the event chair for Relay for Life of UNM and president of the UNM chapter of Colleges Against Cancer (CAC), had emergency surgery and four rounds of chemotherapy to treat liver cancer when she was an infant. She said she was 5 months old when she was diagnosed and less than 1 year old when she completed treatment. “I’m a cancer survivor myself and I know how much the American Cancer Society has helped me,” she said. “Now that I’m involved in Relay (for Life), I can really see how it affects people and their whole family.” The American Cancer Society is an organization that promotes cancer awareness, offers services for cancer patients and their families, such as financial assistance and informational support, and assists with cancer research. Relay for Life is a community walk to raise money for the ACS. “The American Cancer Society not only gives scholarships, but they also have a lot of research money, and since UNM is a really big cancer research center, a lot of money comes back to UNM for cancer research,” she said. “It really goes back into the community.” Maes said she has a genetic growth syndrome, which is the reason she had cancer. She said she has had kidney problems since she became ill, but that the cancer was more difficult to deal with psychologically than physically. She said participating in Camp Enchantment, a camp hosted by ACS to help cancer patients and family members, taught her to cope with her cancer and encouraged her to become a counselor at the camp. “A lot of it is a psychological challenge — worrying about cancer coming back,” she said. “Once I went to Camp Enchantment, I met a whole bunch of other kids who had cancer. It really helped me open up and accept some of the things I have to struggle with on a daily basis.” Colleges Against Cancer Publicity Chair Josh Dolin said CAC is hosting a donation-based chile cook-off today to raise awareness about the Relay for Life event at UNM. He said the suggested

South campus development plan progresses by Svetlana Ozden news@dailylobo.com
Agreements to develop commercial locations near Lobo Village are underway. At a Board of Regent’s Finance and Facilities Committee meeting on Monday, board members unanimously approved the South Campus Master Development Agreement without recommendation. The agreement will go before the full Board of Regents at its next meeting. UNM Director of Real Estate Kim Murphy said the agreement explains that the University, the Board of Regents, the Lobo Development Corporation and the developer, Fairmount Properties, will develop proposals for specific sites near Lobo Village. He said the sites include a 4.3acre lot west of Lobo Village, a 1.8-acre lot east of Lobo Village on Avenida Cesar Chavez, and a 45-acre space south of the UNM baseball field. Murphy said the individual proposals will have to be approved. Murphy said the agreement does not yet include ground leases, which are agreements that allow for the development of a piece of property during the lease period, after which the property owner takes over the property. He said the 1.8-acre lot

higher than the original estimate because it included other costs, such as parking lot construction costs. “Those costs are considerably higher than ours and we have not reconciled that yet, but intend to do that,” he said. Murphy said the agreement will allow Fairmount Properties to seek tenants and property
users and provide them with information about the plans. But Regent Jamie Koch said the full board’s next step before approving the agreement is to understand the potential costs of the project as that may affect whether the regents decide to fund the cost of infrastructure.

Student co-founded group to create community for men of color
UNM student Gerald Jamar Smith said he wants to help students continue their education and pursue their dreams. “I’d like to see social justice and fairness for all people,” Smith said. “If we don’t help people that need it, there is no improvement in a global sense.” To that end, in 2011 Smith cofounded the Men of Color Alliance with his friends, UNM students Christopher Ramirez and Patrick Barrett. The alliance is a UNM student organization that gathers men of color in an effort to provide them with a sense of community through various events, such as poker night and rock climbing. Smith is an African American transfer student from Los Angeles. He decided to move to New Mexico because of greater opportunities and financial aid he could receive as an out-of-state student. But he said the biggest challenge he had to overcome was graduating from high school and getting into college.

“My freshman year of high school, I missed a hundred days of school and my GPA was terribly low. I was about to drop out,” he said. “Neither of my parents have graduated high school, so I didn’t really expect that to happen to me.” But he said one of his teachers sat down with him and asked him about the classes he would like to take, which gave him an opportunity to build his own schedule based on his interests. He said his teacher’s interest encouraged him to improve his grades and continue on to community college. “I finally had a teacher that saw my potential, I guess, and took into consideration my own interests,” he said. Smith said his teacher’s help spurred him to encourage and counsel others because he knows how important it is to have someone who believes in you. “I believe that everything you do, even if you can’t feel it right away, benefits you, your children and the rest of the world,” he said. “So I started thinking — how can I change it if I can?” Smith said the Men of Color Alliance aims to improve student

success rates with a focus on male students of color and informs students about different opportunities to help with their education, including teaching students how to study abroad and apply for scholarships. He said the organization found that graduation rates for minority students at UNM are low. According to the UNM Division of Enrollment Management, out of the students who were freshman in 2005, the graduation rate for African American students was 35.4 percent, the rate for American Indian students was 20.9 percent and the rate for Hispanic students was 42.5 percent. ”Me and my friends started thinking — how could students help with that graduation rate?” he said. “We were trying to come up with an informal way to counsel them.” Smith said the organization is a way to connect people with similar backgrounds, because many of the members are similar to him in that they come from out of state and community colleges. He said the program has been successful. “One of my friends has just graduated and is thinking about Culture Editor Nicole Perez Assistant Culture Editor Antonio Sanchez Sports Editor Thomas Romero-Salas Assistant Sports Editor J.

law school and is working for the Obama administration in Denver now,” he said. “We’ve been seeing a lot of success with the program and we hope it continues this way.” Smith said that for the past two years, he’s been involved in Engaging Latino Communities for Education (ENLACE), a program created predominantly for high schools with low graduation
rates or high dropout rates, and worked specifically at Rio Grande and Highland high schools in Albuquerque. “We are trying to build a relationship with high school students and show them a positive image of the college experience,” he said. “It’s especially close to me since I went to a similar high school and I solidarize with them.’’ ~Zuzanna Kajzer

He said the regents also need to ensure that funding will be available from the UNM Foundation, money that would later be paid back to the foundation with interest. “I think we need to know if it’s going to be six million dollars 18 months ago, or is it going to be nine million (dollars), and what the value of that land is going to be once the infrastructure is put in, what’s that value going to be? All of that stuff,” he said. “And the regents need to make a decision.” Fairmount Properties Principal Adam Fishman said the company wants to move forward with the agreement whether or

not the University will be a partner, and that the agreement is a two-phase agreement. He said the first phase includes the development agreement and the second phase includes the ground lease agreement, which will be negotiated within 60 days of the first agreement. “We are prepared to move forward with this transaction with the University as partner or not,” he said. “It was my preference to do all of this at once in an effort to expedite the process that we would do this in two pieces.” Fishman said the first agreement will allow for the developers to attract potential users of the space. He said the agreement
will allow the developers to show that the company intends to do business with the University. “It’s really important for us, for our leasing efforts, for our commitments, that we’re trying to both articulate and, in one case at least, document with potential users of the site that we do get through this process … executed,” he said. UNM President Robert Frank said the committee should move the agreement to the Board of Regents and that discussions for the plan have gone on for too long. “Prior to my arriving, you spent an enormous amount of time looking for a partner, you’ve discovered a partner,
Dolin said that although the CAC is raising money for Relay for Life, students who register are responsible for raising money as well. “It’s kind of up to students to raise money,” he said. “If they want to hold events to raise money, they can, or they can send out emails to relatives or friends asking for donations.” Maes said many restaurants have donated food for the cook-off, including Garcia’s Kitchen, Peofilils, Chef Jim White Catering and Walker’s Popcorn. She said some of the food donated includes green chile enchiladas, salsa, red and green chile stew, posole and chips and queso. “We decided to have a chile cook-off because we’re in New Mexico and people here
love food and chile,” she said. “Everyone can taste all the chile that they want to.” Maes said businesses including Boba Tea Company, Kelly’s Pub, Il Vicino, Chillz, Papa Murphy’s and Los Compadres donated gift cards and the Great Harvest Bread Company donated a bread basket to be given as raffle prizes at the cook-off. She said she hopes students participate and help support the fight against cancer. “Cancer is something that everyone encounters at some point in their life, whether it’s them or someone they know,” she said. “There’s strength in numbers and it could really bring the entire community together if people get involved.”
they’re prepared to move with or without our investment,” he said. “I support us being an investment partner; I believe they’ve provided us with adequate information about their worthiness as an investment partner.” Frank said the administration will be more prepared with information to answer the committee’s questions at the next Board of Regents meeting. “We’ll do our due diligence and we’ll get to work,” he said. “If you move it out of committee we’ll do our homework and we’ll come back to you … addressing the issues.”

donation for the cook-off is $4 per student and that the organization will continue to host events up until Relay for Life, which is an all-night event set for April 12 and 13 on Johnson field. “It’s supposed to symbolize that cancer never sleeps,” he said. “So that’s why you have an overnight event.” Dolin said that at the cook-off, students can taste a variety of chile dishes and register teams for Relay for Life. He said the organization raised about $12,000 for the ACS at Relay for Life last year and hopes to raise $20,000 this year; so far it has raised about $100. “Students can sample different kinds of chile dishes; green chile, red chile, stews, enchiladas,” he said.

Football, not Title IX, destroys men’s sports Editor’s Note: This is in response to “Football promotes an unhealthy, violent national paradigm,” published in the Nov. 20 issue of the Daily Lobo. In his column, Peter Kindilien writes that the spectator sport has caused chronic head injuries and resulted in mental disorders, such as dementia. Furthermore, he draws a connection between the “glorification of gladiator sports” and “the fact that we are overmedicated and increasingly detached and incapable of activity ourselves.” He concludes that football promotes a culture and habits not conducive to a healthy public. Editor, Congratulations on Peter Kindilien’s excellent letter of Nov. 20 in attacking the sick values that professional and college football promote, and how such promotion does far more to endanger other more civilized male sports than any women’s athletics or Education Amendments of 1972/Title IX does. For too long, people, especially many male and white people, have made the mistake of blaming Title IX, affirmative action, etc., for eliminating nonfootball male intramural sports. It was not women’s sports that eliminated these programs for male athletes. It was the greedy thoughtlessness of violent contact-sport jerks that caused this outrage. If young men want these other sports back, they should take action against the football hogs. Football, in addition to destroying other men’s college sports, brings the worst out in people — both audience and players alike — with its emphasis on winning at all costs. “Winning isn’t everything; it is the only thing,” said the notorious Vince Lombardi — may he not rest in peace. I am glad that several young men are finally speaking out on this issue. William Delzell Daily Lobo reader
Humanity must choose cooperation to survive Editor, It appears that we human beings are either going to continue to divide into warring camps and fight each other until our species becomes extinct, or begin to work cooperatively and compassionately, as the One that is our potential, to manifest what is best for all of us, all else that exists on this planet and the planet itself to enhance the probability of our species surviving and prospering. It also appears that each of us is choosing which of those two practices we are going to engage in by the way we interact with each other, all else that exists on this planet and the planet itself on a moment-to-moment basis every day of our lives.

From the web Online readers commented on “Pornographic posters require real regulation,” published in Wednesday’s Daily Lobo. The letter refers to fliers recently posted on UNM boards featuring nude men with “prominent genitalia” to promote a show featuring the band Glitter Dick. Author Michael Hernandez wrote that this is an unacceptable use of the campus bulletin boards and called for some kind of process requiring all fliers to be approved before posting. by “Kendoll Killjoy” “I sing for Glitter Dick, and I’m sorry you didn’t like our flier, Michael, but it’s a public space, and I really don’t share your sentiment that depictions of gay men are “nauseating” or “offensive.” You mention the fine arts building: Pick up any art book. There will be nude models, maybe even a Tom of Finland piece like the one we used. There might even be *gasp* actual nude men and not just illustrations, if they feature Robert Mapplethorpe. And did you know that some classical statues made by the great masters even have their penises showing? I know, foreskin is just terrifying, isn’t it?” by “CodyA” in response to “Kendoll Killjoy” “Sorry, but it ain’t ‘homophobia’ at all. If it was a poster with a girl sticking a dildo in her a**, it would be just as inappropriate. I’m far from being a homophobe, and I even had one homosexual friend comment on the posters, saying that ‘S*** like this takes the cause for equal treatment of gays three steps back. What a bunch of a**holes, posting s*** like this. It makes gays as a whole look bad.’ You guys are idiots.” by “lostgrrrls” in response to “CodyA” “It’s odd how you compare a naked penis to ‘a girl sticking a dildo in her a**.’ Instead of, I don’t know, a pair of different sexes in a similar pose. You compared this image to
one depicting a sexual act. The one on the poster is certainly suggestive and displays gratuitous nudity, but doesn’t depict any sexual acts. It’s no more revealing than (the statue of ) David; the main difference is an erection which I think is part of what makes it so ‘profane’ to many people. Yet I’ve seen plenty of misogynistic fliers on campus displaying nearly nude women in very sexualized positions, yet I didn’t see any uproar over those. Seems when it’s something that doesn’t appeal to the straight male gaze, it’s suddenly a problem, but not otherwise. I agree with your friend that the image on the poster uses and feeds into stereotypes many still hold about gay people in order to be ‘shocking,’ which the band is using for more publicity. That certainly needs to be addressed and I agree that it doesn’t help the movement. But one could also argue that forcing people to view these images as much as we view images of heterosexuality could work to normalize gay sexuality, and that if people truly aren’t homophobic, they won’t be in such an uproar over images of gay sexuality, at least not more than they are about images of straight sexuality... Wait, I just saw the flier again and the penis isn’t even erect, which makes it even less sexual of an image. If this is just a tasteless and offensive ad worthy of being banned on campus, I’m looking forward to all of the tasteless, offensive photos of dead fetuses, which, mind you, are never actually photos of aborted fetuses, no longer being shown on campus as advertisements for the anti-choice movement.” by “Grayson” “Before posting, I think that every flier or advertisement should be personally certified and approved by Michael Hernandez and his grandparents.” by “Farfule” “Perhaps this poster was offensive to you, but you don’t have to look. Many of the posters in favor of the right to life that
have appeared on campus, 20 feet high, of fetuses were also offensive and were probably harder to avoid. What offends one person may be fine for someone else.” by “Kate” “If you don’t want to be offended, don’t leave your house, or live in the woods. Free expression can be offensive to some but that doesn’t mean you can get rid of everything that offends you.” by “Rudemix” “I think Michael Hernandez is right. What a slippery slope to slide tightly into looking at that man’s penis on that poster. I felt a welling up inside me and wanted to burst in anger all over that picture. Why can’t we have good posters on campus like aborted fetuses that show the punitive side of sex, the horrible side of it. This is America and if you gay types want to stick your penis in my face at will, I will go down fighting, choking on my last breath against it. No one wants to appreciate the human body in its natural, normal splendor. This is America. We want our sex shameful and dirty and unnatural. Not out in the open, pinned to a wall, that singular eye gazing right at our faces. If I see that poster again with that penis sticking right out, I’m going to grab that with both hands, pull up on it and then down and jerk it right off the board. Try and stop me, you weirdos.” by “Roolark” in response to “Rudemix” “My professor here in Germany loves to joke about how Americans are so prudish. Outside the Cologne train station are three huge posters showing naked men and women swimming in the Rhine, a beer advertisement.”

most ornate headstones on display at the Jewish Historical Museum in the capital of Willemstad. Besides being sacred sites, Frankel said, the cemeteries help document the Caribbean migration of Sephardic Jews whose forefathers fled or were expelled from the Iberian Peninsula during the Inquisition, and Ashkenazic Jews who later left central and eastern Europe to seek their fortunes in the New World. Curaçao, Jamaica, the smaller Dutch island of St. Eustatius, St. Thomas and Barbados all once had large Jewish populations. On some islands, colonial Jews numbered in the hundreds, and other locations in the thousands, said Frankel. By the mid-20th century, most of the congregations had declined, but the cemeteries that in some cases had accepted burials for more than two centuries remained. The Jewish community in Curaçao dates back to the 1650s, with the arrival of Sephardic Jews from Amsterdam who had previously fled Spain and Portugal. At its peak, in the late 1700s, the Jewish community on the island numbered about 2,000. They established the Mikve Israel-Emanuel Synagogue, which is billed as the oldest

WILLEMSTAD, Curaçao — Headstones are pockmarked, their inscriptions faded. Stone slabs that have covered tombs for centuries are crumbling. White marble has turned grey, likely from the acrid smoke that spews from a nearby oil refinery. One of the oldest Jewish cemeteries in the Western Hemisphere, Beth Haim on the island of Curaçao, is slowly fading in the Caribbean sun. Beth Haim was established in the 17th century and is considered an important landmark even on an island so rich in history that its downtown has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The sparsely populated island of nearly 150,000 people just north of Venezuela is known today mostly as a diving destination or for its namesake blue liqueur made from citrus fruit. With its lavish monuments and multilingual epitaphs, Curaçao’s cemetery helps tell the littleknown history of Jews in the Caribbean who fled Spain and Portugal to escape the Inquisition aimed at ridding the Christian nations of Jews, Muslims and others people deemed heretics. Many of the exiles first found refuge in the Netherlands, with
their descendants later settling in this former Dutch colony, now a highly diverse society and a semiautonomous part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands. But the landmark is in danger. The steady erosion, likely intensified by the proximity of the antiquated refinery, is now considered unstoppable, said Rene Maduro, president of the Mikve IsraelEmanuel Synagogue, which owns and maintains the cemetery. “Believe me, I wish there was something we could do to protect the cemetery,â€? said Maduro, whose family came to Curaçao in the 1600s and has 75 to 100 ancestors buried in Beth Haim. “It is beyond the point of repair.â€? The Curaçao cemetery is among several at-risk burial sites that “preserve the cultural, ethnic, biographical and religious historyâ€? of Jews in the Caribbean, said Rachel Frankel, a New York architect who has studied and documented historic Jewish sites throughout the Americas, including burial grounds in Jamaica and Suriname. The Curaçao congregation is considering preserving the cemetery electronically by setting up a website with records and photos, Maduro said. The plan for a digital memorial is still in development, but a lower-tech effort has put replicas of 10 of the

The synagogue today has about 350 members, of which only about 200 actually live on Curaçao. An orthodox synagogue in another part of Willemstad has a membership of about 60 families. The cemetery occupies what was once plantation land on about 10 acres on the outskirts of Willemstad. The oldest confirmed inscription is from 1668 on a stone made of potter’s clay, according to records maintained by the synagogue. Congregation members have determined more than 5,000 people are buried there, but only a third of the inscriptions are legible in a mix of languages that includes Portuguese, Spanish, Dutch and Hebrew. Also vanishing are some of the engravings known as sepulchral illustrations, some of which are considered artworks.

Ivan Becher, president of the Shaarek Tsedek synagogue in Willemstad, said his grandfather was among the last to be buried in Beth Haim nearly 60 years ago. “My grandfather’s grave is pretty well kept, but with the rest of the graves, there is a lot of erosion,” he said. “It’s too bad.” Experts who have studied the headstones say the deterioration is caused by a combination of factors, including wind, salt air and humidity, said Michael A. Newton, an architect who works with the Curaçao Monuments Foundation, a preservation group. Many on the island also blame the oil refinery that towers over the cemetery and on many days spews sooty clouds that burn the eyes of visitors to Beth Haim as well as those of residents in the poor neighborhoods of the area. A spokesman for the refinery, which is owned by the Curaçao government and operated under contract by Venezuela’s stateowned oil company, did not return calls seeking comment. The refinery’s operators have occasionally helped with the cemetery’s maintenance, which has otherwise cost the congregation “many, many thousands” of dollars over the years, Maduro said. Congregation members have consulted with experts from the Netherlands and the United States on possible solutions to halt erosion, but the options were too expensive and considered longshots at best. Jewish law forbids disturbing
remains, so moving the cemetery to another part of Curaçao that would be less threatened by refinery smoke is out of the question, Maduro said. Frankel, the New York architect, said that preservation has also proved difficult for other historic cemeteries in the Caribbean that no longer receive burials and have dwindling populations of Jewish heirs to care for them. “In places where pollutants are not a problem, there are other challenges,” she said. “Vegetation grows fast and furious in the subtropical climate. Goat herds — which exist even in urban centers — make their way through open cemetery gates. And as Caribbean cities become more densely populated, cemeteries sometimes become garbage dumps where public sanitation is lacking.” But appreciation of the cemeteries as historic sites has grown over the past two decades, Frankel said, with local governments, academics and congregation members working together to document, study and preserve them while also making them accessible to the public. The Curaçao cemetery is occasionally visited by tourists from the cruise ships stopping at downtown Willemstad. Maduro hopes future visitors will also be able to view the cemetery virtually, on the hoped-for website. “Not that we can preserve it, but we are trying to make it easier for people to know what’s there and who is buried there,” he said.

‘Inhabitants of Burque’ collects interviews, photos by Nicole Perez
culture@dailylobo.com
Lucky Burqueños could see themselves pictured on a Facebook page with nearly 2,000 likes — and they don’t have to do anything to get on it. Photographer Leo York roams Albuquerque photographing and interviewing everyone he sees on the street. As soon as he gets home, he shares Albuquerque community members’ stories with the 1,732 people who currently like his Facebook page, titled “Inhabitants of Burque.” “I don’t do any editing or retouching for the site; the most I do with photos is just exposure, because I don’t want it to be about my photography,” York said. “If I spend hours retouching photos or try to get the perfect photo, then it’s about my photography and it’s not about the story.” York said the page’s popularity grew exponentially as soon as he made it in August. Within a month, TEDx (Technology, Education and Design talks) Albuquerque contacted him to get involved. York said the page is now getting about 120 likes per week, and he has posted between 600 and 700 photos and stories. “I don’t know what I did, but I found a way to be successful on social media,” he said. “I meet people and
they tell me how cool it is and what it’s done for them, but the extent of what I know my site does is ‘Blah-de-blah liked your picture. Oh that’s a really cool picture.’ It’s kind of weird to handle all this successful stuff going on.” York said people now recognize him on the street, and many people have contacted him to be involved with the page, including Albuquerque poet laureate Hakim Bellamy, someone from Yelp and a National Geographic photographer. “There’s a guy working for the city, and he told me yesterday that I’m revolutionizing the way to advertise, to promote people. He’s telling people at the government offices, ‘This is how you need to do stuff,’” York said. York said the purpose of the page is to promote individuals as well as local businesses and community efforts. “For me, it’s all about telling a story and trying to change. It’s getting to be more of a social movement, bringing it back to the awareness of our community,” York said. York’s girlfriend, Sara Niedbalski, sometimes interviews and photographs people with him, and she said the page has influenced not only Albuquerque, but York as well. “Knowing Leo before and after, and the experience of getting to interact with so many different people and hearing people’s stories

It’s December again, so it’s time to celebrate white-skinned Jesus, Coca-Cola, dreidels and holiday-themed everything. The Albuquerque Little Theatre welcomes the season with something familiar: “It’s a Wonderful Life,” the holiday tale of a noble man’s Christmas Eve suicide averted by the sudden appearance of a guardian angel. After a lengthy preshow speech in which the executive director begs for more money, the Christmas spirit can begin. The play suffers a bit as an adaptation of the 1946 classic film. The new structure of the script mainly mimics the film, only deviating when the staging of certain scenes would be too difficult. Some big events are merely mentioned, such as the rescue of young Harry Bailey or the dramatic collapse of the gym floor into a swimming pool. The first half is a bit stiff. Most cast members talk with their hands too much and take their verbal cues from the rigid delivery style of the classic-film era from which the play hails. The most interesting part of the play by far is the hellscape of a world where George Bailey, the main character, never existed. The stage is flooded with red light, avant-garde horror sounds are piped over everything, prostitution is implied and the townspeople suddenly howl like zombies. It was so different

from the rest of the play that it’s a shame the sequence didn’t last longer. Scott Bryan plays George Bailey, an everyman of the people and a role made famous by Jimmy Stewart. Bryan shows his strengths when he is given free rein to joke and clown, and he is without a doubt the highlight of the show. The emotional depth of his desire for suicide in the opening of the show, however, is somewhat lacking. It is when George’s life and sanity fall apart that Bryan’s frenetic weirdness truly shines and entertains. Uncle Billy Bailey, played by Jeff Hudson, is the buffoonish partner in Bryan’s comedy. The two actors’ physical instincts and strange styles work well together. Villain Mr. Potter, played by Thom Hinks, is exceptionally good: believable, gratifying and an easy evil. Kate Costello is an enjoyable Mrs. Bailey, despite her part’s lack of depth. Maureen Trujillo is satisfying as Ma Bailey, particularly in her contrast between soft matron and cigarette-smoking hag. I did miss the rather outdated black servant woman from the film; I was hoping the quite faithful adaptation would include the stock Aunt Jemima character. Overall, though, the whole thing is a bit bland. The costumes and set pieces are all grand and attractive, but Christmas fuzzies aren’t really achieved, even with the help of the incredibly adorable little girl, Ryan Stearns, as Zuzu.
The Albuquerque Little Theatre is safe theater. It makes conservative choices for plays, things with established media, so that the elderly crowd will come in droves. Then the awkwardly long bega-thon begins in earnest. With the entire large cast still jammed onstage, another embarrassingly long-winded plea for money occurs. The actors twiddle their thumbs and wait as children are sent literally palms-open to wait for your money to fall into them. Ah, Christmas.
