At last, location of Simpsons revealed

By Michael Muskal Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — Massachusetts, you’re out. Ohio? Sorry, another loser. In the race for cultural mecca, the winner is: Oregon.

That is, Oregon is the winner as far as “The Simpsons” are concerned, according to creator Matt Groening, who told Smithsonian magazine that the real-life home of his fictional characters is the Springfield in the Northwest. It was the first time that Groening had specified the place where almost anything can happen — and seemingly has in the show’s 22 years on TV. Groening acknowledged that he has always avoided naming the state.

“I don’t want to ruin it for people, you know? Whenever people say it’s Springfield, Ohio, or Springfield, Massachusetts, or Springfield, wherever, I always go, ‘Yup, that’s right.’”

Groening created the animated Springfield as a sort of Erewhon, but in keeping with the best television tradition, it

After 22 years on television, Matt Groening, creator of ‘The Simpsons’ reveals which state the family resides. is self-referential. After all, what happens on television, stays on television.

“Springfield was named after Springfield, Oregon,” Groening told the magazine. “The only

reason is that when I was a kid, the TV show ‘Father Knows Best’ took place in the town of Springfield, and I was thrilled because I imagined that it was the town next to Portland, my hometown.

“When I grew up, I realized it was just a fictitious name. I also figured out that Springfield was one of the most common names for a city in the U.S. In anticipation of the success of the show, I thought, ‘This will be cool; everyone will think it’s their Springfield.’ And they do.”

The real Springfield, Ore., has about 60,000 people, a median income of less than $40,000 and perhaps one in five living below the poverty line.

The animated Springfield has perhaps four dozen inhabitants.

There is no poverty line since pretty much anybody can afford to do anything he or she wants, though to be fair some, including the cat lady, have chosen lives of total desperation for reasons best left to themselves.

Not everybody is as wealthy as the show’s Mr. Burns, perhaps, but the title characters seem to have a house, two cars and a life free from want. What no one can escape is the rapier-like parody of the middle-class lifestyle that crosses all incomes, ethnicities, sexual orientations and most conservative politicians. (Only

President George H.W. Bush seemed to really fit in, but that was short-lived for personal, not political, reasons.)

The Simpsons are also seemingly immortal (not to mention able to travel in time and space, sort of ). The series is the longestrunning American sitcom and the longest-running U.S. animated program. Considering it’s in syndication as well, the show may well be on some television screen somewhere in the world almost every minute.

The show arguably reinvented the adult cartoon series and was a key factor in the initial and continued success of the Fox television network as a whole.

In 2007, Springfield, Vt., beat out the estimated 13 other Springfields (note that 13 carries it own ominous overtones in this context) for the premiere of “The Simpsons Movie.” Each town had to submit videos connecting them to the animated version.

In a plot twist that even Homer Simpson could understand, Springfield, Ore., the real model, lost.

‘We’re in the door’

Gadsden native Ashe Watson to play with band at Brother’s

By Erin Williams Special to The Star

F

or Ashe Watson, the idea of pursuing music as a career was something he was practically born with. The songwriter and lead singer of the band August Ashe, the musician’s first real music memory came when he was just a kid, as he sat around watching his uncle, songwriter Brandon Barnes, playing around in a home studio with a then-unknown Brian McKnight in Huntsville.

As they fiddled around, “I just remember kind of sitting in there — I was probably 10 or 11 years old — and just being blown away and amazed by what I was seeing,” the now-30-year-old Watson remembers; they were working on what would eventually be McKnight’s first album.

A Gadsden native, Watson, whose band performs Thursday at Brother’s in Jacksonville, grew up in the studio watching his uncle work with McKnight and write songs for artists, and after graduating from high school in 1998, decided to strike out on his own. “(I) wanted to be an artist at some point — the writing kind of developed first,” he said.

He eventually began working with Universal Records in 2005 as a songwriter — an experience that has given him the ability to write songs from an objective point of view.

“I’ve just gotten so accustomed to writing for other people that I’ve developed the ability to just put myself in a situation,” he said of penning lyrics for the band’s songs, whether they range from love to late night post-relationship thoughts, as in his latest song,

Ashe Watson will play Thursday with his country band August Ashe at Brother’s Bar in Jacksonville.

August Ashe Where: Brother’s Bar, 206 Pelham Road S., Jacksonville When: 10 p.m. Thursday, April 19 Cost: $5 for under 21, $3 for 21 and up Follow the band on Twitter @augustashe, listen to their music at reverbnation.com/augustashe, and check them out on Facebook at facebook.com/pages/AugustAshe “Missed Call.”

“It’s less personal experience, more … how can I write a song that’s going to relate to someone, that they’ll take to heart,” he says.

As Watson’s work became more pop-based, he knew that he had an additional talent to pen songs for country music.

“I knew when it came time to be an artist, that’s where I

always felt like country music was going to be the avenue to go down,” he said.

Watson began meeting with A&R representatives in Nashville in 2010 and performing a few of his songs on his guitar, but was generally met with the same reaction: “‘Do you have a band? Where are you playing at? I want to come hear you play.’ And my answer was no,” Watson said.

Once it clicked that he needed a group of musicians for his songs to receive a fair listen, Watson began a search to put it all together.

“I was very picky about who I wanted to play with me,” he said. “I know a lot of people from the outside just think you call up a couple of guys and be like ‘Hey, let’s play together,’ but it’s a difficult process in itself.”

While he looked for members in several locations, including Atlanta and Tallahassee, where he lives with his wife and son, all of his members ended up coming from his hometown — a factor that is not all that surprising to him.

“Gadsden is just very talent-rich,” he said. “It was almost a nostalgic thing to go back home and find four

other guys who are just really incredible musicians from the same hometown.”

The final product — a cross between Watson’s name and his birth month — solidified in January, and is now starting to make the rounds in the local venues. Their music already has an impact in the ever-present social networking community, where the band has done a lot of outreach on Reverbnation and other sites.

“We’re not big artists … just knowing that I’ve affected someone’s day — I’ve either helped them or helped them get over a situation or just to see someone that I don’t know, that I’m not even friends with on Facebook quoting my lyrics that I wrote — it’s a very cool feeling,” he said. “It’s really exploded, and it’s actually gone a lot faster than I really initially anticipated.”

While Watson’s eventual plan is to focus on the band exclusively and secure a recording contract, he understands that success doesn’t happen overnight.

“We’re in the door, we’re just taking the right steps,” he said of the band, which has begun working with a producer and is planning to record an EP soon. “We’re just trying to play as many shows and get as comfortable as we can with each other.”

No matter what comes of the band, though, Watson knows where his real support is — in his 3-year-old son.

“I’ll go pick him up from school when I’m at home and the first thing (he says) is ‘I wanna hear a Daddy song,’” he said. “I’ve always said even if nobody ever buys any of my records, having my son want to hear (my music) — that’s good enough for me.”

Axl Rose declines induction into Rock Hall of Fame

By Nekesa Mumbi Moody Associated Press

NEW YORK — The acrimony that helped dissolve Guns N’ Roses nearly 20 years ago still lingers.

Axl Rose announced Wednesday that he won’t be showing up to see the band inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and declined the honor for himself.

In a letter to the hall, band fans and “To Whom It May Concern,” Rose listed several reasons for not attending Saturday’s ceremony in Cleveland, including a feeling that the hall does not respect him.

In declining his own induction, he rose added: “I strongly request that I not be inducted in absentia and please know that no one is authorized nor may anyone be permitted to accept any induction for me or speak on my behalf.”

The hall said in a statement that it still plans to induct Rose with the rest of the group. “We are sorry he will not be able to accept his induction in person,” it said.

According to the rock hall only the Sex Pistols have declined induction before.

Although Rose now fronts a reconstituted version of Guns N’ Roses that does not include former members Slash, Izzy Stradlin, Duff McKagan or Steven Adler, some held out hope that the band might reunite at the hall.

That first call went on forever.

They emerged from those sessions “I didn’t even do that when I was with four new cuts for the album— in high school, talk to someone on the Henry compositions “God Only Knows” phone for three hours, but we did,” (perhaps the album’s standout) and Henry said. “And we talked about every- “You Can’t Fail Me Now” (co-written with Loudon Wainwright III) and the thing.”

Associated Press

Bob Dylan covers “Million Miles” and “Standing in the Doorway.” And Raitt emerged aflame with the need to pull her touring band together to cut more tracks. She eventually added eight others to “Slipstream” and the cuts left over from those Henry sessions will be released in some way after she completes tours of the United States, Australia and Europe over the next year.

“I just kept going,” Raitt said. “I just felt so ... ‘inspired’ is the word I’d use.

It was so comfortable, inspirational, especially coming out of not being in capital letters, BONNIE RAITT. It was a great re-entry. It was just like someone put the paddles on your heart and said, ‘Welcome back.’”

“Slipstream,” her 19th album and her first on her own label, Redwing Records, is a mix of styles and flavors. Al Anderson, formerly of NRBQ, contributes three songs and plays on four, acting as a counterpunch to Henry’s more somber songs. And Raitt even offers a reggae version of Gerry Rafferty’s “Right Down the Line.”

“I’m as excited about playing these songs on the road as I was in the studio,” Raitt said. “And to have the jewels of these Dylan songs and the Joe Henry songs, and to know that I’ll have that other project come out is just a thrill for me, and reignited the passion I’ve always had for music and reinforced that connection I have with my band and how much I was born to do this. I’m as excited about this tour as I was the time I had my first album.”

Pat Wellenbach/Associated Press/File

Grammy winners Bonnie Raitt (pictured) and producer Joe Henry teamed up to record ‘Slipstream.’

review Bonnie Raitt, “Slipstream” (Redwing Records) It takes Bonnie Raitt less than a minute into her new album before she belts out these lyrics: “Now you’re mystified / Standing with the rest of us / Who used to rule the world.” It’s a fitting open to her first studio album in more than six years and a not-so-subtle declaration that before big-voiced singers like Kelly Clarkson and Pink, there

was Raitt.

“Slipstream” is infused with the blues. Raitt plays her trademark slide guitar on some of the best tracks — from that opener “Used to Rule the World” to the Dylan cover “Million Miles” and another new song, “Split Decision.”

Befitting a blues album, nearly all the songs contain the word “love” and feature simple beats that have you bobbing your head

and tapping your toes after just a couple listens. Quite a few of the songs were written years ago, after Raitt’s last studio album, “Souls Alike.”

The nine-time Grammy winner never overreaches with her voice and smartly lets the music breathe throughout. She sounds less interested in turning back the clock to her multi-platinum “Luck of the Draw” days than she does with sharing the wisdom

she’s gathered in a career that’s lasted more than four decades.

CHECK OUT THIS TRACK: “Ain’t Gonna Let You Go” builds from a Raitt guitar solo to a declaration of love in the chorus: “You’re not the man that I was looking for / You’re every bit of him plus a whole lot more / Now that I gotcha, it feels so good / I don’t wanna let you go.”

Alabama Shakes, “Boys & Girls” (ATO) Alabama Shakes have gotten a lot of hype over the last year, driven mostly by its live show and YouTube presence.

Sweeping the United States and Europe on a mostly sold-out tour and teasing new fans with the much-played lead single “Hold On,” the quartet has a lot of advance praise to live up to with debut album “Boys & Girls.”

Thankfully, the Athens (not Georgia) rock band delivers. It helps that the album kicks off with “Hold On,” which features the same bluesy Southern drawl that helped make Kings of Leon a multiplatinum success. Except in this case, the powerful vocals come from Brittany Howard, the band’s frontwoman.

On “Hang Loose” the band couples the optimistic lyrics “We’re all right/ We’re gonna be all right” with a riff that has a bluegrass feel. And “Goin’ to the Party” is stripped down to a simple guitar tune. Paired with Howard’s voice, it conjures up images of a party on a hot summer day.

“Heartbreaker’” turns the tone of the

The Alabama Shakes’, left to right, Heath Fogg, Zac Cockrell, Brittany Howard and Steve Johnson, have gained notoriety through their live performances an their popularity on YouTube. album to a soulful lament. Showing she can use her voice to convey any emotion, Howard angrily moans, “How was I supposed to know you was a heartbreaker?”

Luckily for the listener the mood lifts once again for the album’s conclusion with the crashing percussion on “I Ain’t

The Same” and the rocky guitar on “On your Way.” CHECK THIS TRACK OUT: “Hold On” is still the standout track. Howard shows her range, from whispering to screeching, in three minutes of musical genius.

TBT takes new tack on latest album

By Chris Talbott Associated Press

“Stars and Satellites,” Trampled By Turtles (Thirty Tigers) “Palomino,” the last album from Duluth, Minn., acoustic rockers Trampled By Turtles, was the perfect distillation of punk, rock and bluegrass, a hardcore declaration of war that caused a joyously spontaneous, if gentle, mosh pit to breakout during the band’s stellar show last year in Nashville.

The band’s sixth album, “Stars and Satellites,” is a very different record, cut with a diamond drill rather than forged by hammer. Its 11 songs are written from a different set of emotions — a winter album to the summer

ramble of “Palomino.” The song titles tip the band’s hand: “Midnight on the Interstate,” “Alone,” “High Water,” “Risk” and “Widower’s Heart.”

Songwriter Dave Simonett casts the mood in opener “Midnight,” a song about coming home and finding things a mess. Then comes “Alone” and its wordless chorus that invites all those lone wolves out there to join in. Two songs later Simonett matches his voice to a plaintive fiddle line on “High Water.”

“Stars and Satellites” is the kind of album you write when you reach a point when you’re

thinking deeply about the mysteries of life — childbirth and family, love and loss, life and death. There are a handful of uptempo tunes, including the fiery instrumental “Risk,” but even these seem touched in some way some by sadness.

The band chucked its alllive-all-the-time ethos for this album and matched Simonett’s lyrics in the studio with a rich color scheme of sounds, often working out intricate figures that lock so tightly it’s impossible to unravel just what’s going on. The looped fiddle sound at the end of “Midnight,” the way the mandolin and banjo move

in lockstep on “Alone” and the haunting sound of bow on bass strings on “Beautiful” push those songs into different territory.

“Stars and Satellites” is more proof TBT should be mentioned in the same breath as other roots rockers like Old Crow Medicine Show or Mumford & Sons, who are doing something very different with those old sounds they’ve found.

CHECK THIS TRACK OUT: “Widower’s Heart” is every bit as beautiful as “Midnight” and “Alone” and conveys a sense of emotion — the deep listlessness of depression — not often expressed in music: “I can’t help it if I have a widower’s heart/I try to get out of bed but I can’t seem to start.”

tough balance to strike.

Let’s quickly touch upon plot and then get out: Five friends go away for the weekend to a remote cabin by a lake. There’s party-girl Jules (Anna Hutchison), her jock boyfriend Curt (Chris Hemsworth, who made this film before “Thor” made him a star), the bookish-but-sexy Holden (Jesse Williams), wisecracking stoner Marty (Fran Kranz, who gets the best lines of the group) and the wholesome Dana (Kristen Connolly). Because they are good-looking college archetypes, they must drink beer, smoke weed, undress and cavort; it heightens their vulnerability.

Stop me if you think you’ve heard this one

before. From the character descriptions alone, you can probably determine who’s going to get it and in what order.

But wait, there’s also a parallel story line involving Richard Jenkins and Bradley Whitford as midlevel managers at some sort of sterile research lab who kill time one-upping each other with deadpan gallows humor. As Goddard and Whedon jump back and forth, the pieces snap into place; then just when you think you’ve got it all figured out, they throw something else at you.

“Cabin” may not win over any new converts to the horror genre, but it’ll certainly make the faithful feel fervent all over again.

The series picked up where the film left off with Logan (Harrison) and Jessica (Heather MenziesUrich) pursued by Sandmen, the local police who track down runners who don’t commit to the deadly 30th birthday gift. The pair are looking for a Sanctuary, a place where there are no age limits.

“The Witches of Oz,” Grade C-plus: The latest variation on the “Wizard of Oz” story has Dorothy Gale (Paulie Rojas) as a a writer of children’s books living in rural Kansas. Her move to New York, as part of a book deal, proves eye-opening as Dorothy eventually realizes the books she’s been writing are actually repressed memories of her time in Oz. Her memories return just in time to stop the Wicked Witch of the West, who needs a key to unlock the power to destroy Oz and New York.

A cutdown version has been released theatrically, but this is the original television miniseries version that explains the 164 minutes of running time.

The shorter version would have been a better option because the film has plenty of moments that are as dull as the Tin Man’s finish.

It doesn’t help that Rojas is such a poor selection to play the feisty Dorothy. Her acting is uneven and she just doesn’t have the charm to pull off such an iconic character. There are a few strong supporting players — Lance Henriksen, Christopher Lloyd, Mia Sara — but the majority of the actors look like refugees from a Syfy Channel Saturday-night horror film.

This is an interesting twist on the “Oz” world, but it fails because of poor pacing and so-so special effects.

Say ‘woo-woo-woo’ to ‘The Three Stooges’

By Roger Moore McClatchy-Tribune News Service

There’s an inner 9-year-old in us all, dying to get out, to laugh at pratfalls, slaps, eye-pokes and fart jokes.

That’s what Fox and the Farrelly Brothers are counting on. That’s why they’ve revived “The Three Stooges,” those princes of the puerile, champions of the childish and lions of lowbrow.

And from the moment Larry David appears, in full nun’s wimple and habit, as Sister Mary-Mengele (hah!), this updating of the Stooges works. (Or should we say “woiks”?)

We meet them the day they’re hurled, in a bundle, at the door of an orphanage.

They grow into troublesome orphans with bad haircuts. Even as 10-year-olds, Moe (Skyler Gisondo), Larry (Lance Chantiles-Wertz) and Curly (Robert Capron of “Diary of a Wimpy Kid”) just

say “Nyuck” and are accidents waiting to happen.

“No wonder (adoptive) parents didn’t want youse,” Sister Mary-Mengele hisses.

But Mother Superior (Jane Lynch) and Sister Rosemary (Jennifer Hudson) tolerate them. For decades.

So that when, 35 years after arriving there, their orphanage faces foreclosure, the sort-of adult Larry (Sean Hayes), Curly (Will Sasso) and Moe (Chris Diamantopoulos) are there to save the day.

Sort of.

But it’s going to be impossible to raise $830,000 through ineptly performed odd jobs, even if Moe is “startin’ to get half a brain in my head.” Fortunately, they run into a femme fatale (Sofia Vergara, at her Vergara-iest) who wants them to smother her “dying” husband.

“Soitainly!”

Little does she know she’s hired mayhem in high-water pants for the job.

“Those three eeeeeeediiots!”

the three stooges HHH rating: PG for slapstick action violence, some rude and suggestive humor including language Running time: 1:32 Starring: Sean Hayes, Will Sasso, Chris Diamantopoulos, Larry David, Jane Lynch, Sofia Vergara, Jennifer Hudson, Kate Upton

Little does anyone know these three are in over their heads in the modern world.

“Are you guys on Facebook? I’ll poke you!”

Nyuck, nyuck, nyuck.

The Farrellys, who have fallen off raunchy comedy’s cutting edge in recent years, manage the right tone.

Sound effects amp up the

laughs (an accidental poke in Vergara’s D-cup may be the raciest thing in it) and they’ve scored with their casting. This originally was supposed to have Oscarwinning stars, but thankfully, Sean Penn is nowhere to be found.

The new Stooges are affectionate homages to the originals: Moe and Curly Howard and Larry Fine. Hayes (of TV’s “Will & Grace”) is the most mannered, and the only one you see giving a performance.

Not that he isn’t funny as all get-out. But Sasso and Diamantopoulos ARE Curly and Moe. The Farrellys cleaned up their act for a kiddie audience. They even appear on camera for a “don’t do this at home” disclaimer at the end, because, as ever, the Stooges are for kids.

Not that plenty of grownups won’t get a kick out of what Moe does to “The Jersey Shore.” Because they have it coming.

They had me at ‘Nyuk, nyuk, nyuk’

By Felicia D. Pinkney Special to The Star

It all began innocently enough at my aunt’s house.

My 8-year-old cousin plopped down in front of the TV next to his brother, 3.

At 9, I was the oldest and the only girl, so I could have (gently) demanded that we watch my favorite cartoons, “Bugs Bunny” or “Scooby-Doo.” This time, though, I let them control their own TV, which meant I had to watch three funny little men — Curly, Larry and Moe — abuse each other in the name of comedy.

They slapped faces, poked eyes, bonked heads, punched bellies and threw pies in each other’s faces. Hot cigar ashes were even dumped on their tongues.

I loved every minute of it.

They had me at “nyuk, nyuk, nyuk” and “woo, woo, woo.”

Thirty-plus years and five kids later, I am still a fan.

“The Three Stooges” movie, which opens in theaters today, is a must-see for me. The Farrelly Brothers directed this one, as well as “Dumb and Dumber,” “There’s Something About Mary” and “Me, Myself & Irene.”

Apparently, though, I’m one of only a small number of women who love the Stooges and their brand of slapstick comedy.

What’s up with that?

Maybe it’s because the Stooges often referred to women as “dames,” which was thought to be offensive.

VooMote Zappers is a device that lets you control your TV from your Apple device.

iProducts for your desk and couch Phones can do pretty much everything these days. You can chat, send texts, connect to the Internet and couch surf.

That’s right.

This week’s gadget roundup includes a review of an adapter that can turn your iPhone, iPad or iPod Chris Touch into a glorified Pittman television remote. No more digging in the iSpy couch to change the channel.

We also look at an amazing iPad stand that is a definite must-own product for owners of Apple’s tablet.

VooMote Zapper

by Zero1.tv; $69.95 Hate looking for the TV remote every night? The VooMote Zapper might be exactly what you need.

The device turns your iPhone/ iPod/iPad into a special remote that can control almost all audio and visual equipment on the market.

A special dongle attachment plugs

into the connector on the bottom of the iOS device. This will prompt the user to download a special application that is required for the product to work. Thankfully, it’s a free download.

After the app has been booted up, you’ll begin selecting the devices you wish to control. I was able to setup my DirecTV account in just a couple of minutes.

The software features several preinstalled settings for many different cable and satellite boxes. Going down the list using process of elimination is the best way to determine the particular configuration you will need for each device.

VooMote can understand macros and user-created scenarios very easy.

Most of them seem to be fairly useless, though.

Planned support for iCloud will be a welcomed addition in the near future.

You’ll be able to share your specific configurations with friends and family.

Ten color options are available in total. They include the traditional black and white as well as the eight Apple Smart Cover colors.

At near $70, the VooMote Zapper

is a hard sale for people with limited electronics. However, the product is an excellent choice for those that have many audio/visual devices and wish to control all of them with one remote.

Uprise 360

by Hub Innovations; $34.95

Apple’s own Smart Cover does a pretty good job of propping up the iPad, but Hub Innovations’ newest product does it better — way better.

The Uprise 360 stand firmly holds the iPad in place, snapping your tablet into its four corners without much effort. Using the touchscreen is a breeze once installed. You can put pressure on the screen without worry of knocking everything over.

Portrait and landscape viewing angles are supported. You can literally spin the iPad in a complete 360º circle.

This can help you angle the tablet in a way that avoids glare on the screen.

Pulling the latest iPad out can be a bit of a hassle, as the minimal added thickness creates an extremely strong hold. I’d argue this as a good thing, however, as one doesn’t need to worry about their tablet slipping out. The

iPad 2 fits pretty great and is a tad easier to remove.

The product is extremely small and can be folded up to put into a bag.

Saving space is always a worthwhile endeavor.

I frequently use the application Air Display to convert my iPad into an extra monitor for my notebook computer. The Uprise is perfect for such a situation, as it props the added screen neatly next to my MacBook Pro. The only glaring flaw of the Uprise 360 is that it almost requires a naked iPad to work.

I use a Smart Cover to protect the front of my iPad and a clear plastic cover for the back. Both of these items have to be removed in order to put the tablet into the Uprise 360.

It’s not much of an issue, but it still takes time. Those that use a full protective case such as an Otterbox may find that wrestling the iPad out it every time isn’t worth the effort.

That aside, Hub Innovations’ Uprise 360 is one of the best accessories you can buy for the iPad. The low price makes it a worthy purchase for any Apple tablet owner.

JSU’s student-directed play tackles racism, family dynamics in Apartheid-era South Africa

When it’s something she’s passionate about, Alexandra Hooper tends to, as she puts it, “dive right in.”

This is certainly an apt description of the 22-year-old Jacksonville State University senior’s approach to directing the Apartheid-era drama “The Syringa Tree,” which runs through Sunday at the Ernest Stone Performing Arts Center.

The story of “The Syringa Tree” opens in Johannesburg, South Africa, and tells of the enduring love between two families: one black, one white, — servant and master — and the two children born into their shared household in the early 1960s and how their lives and relationships become defined through the horrors of Apartheid.

“It’s just a beautiful story with a thousand different morals,” Hooper explained.

“No one will watch this show and not find something to relate to, but my focus is that a family can be made up of anyone. A family is about more than blood.”

The journey that eventually brought “The Syringa Tree” to the stage began when Hooper was a high school freshman living in downtown Atlanta. Her arts teacher allowed Hooper to come on a senior field trip to the nearby Horizon Theatre, where the one-woman version of “The Syringa Tree” was being performed.

“I loved it and never forgot it,” said Hooper, who is directing a traditional version of the show with 12 cast members portraying 24 roles. “It was an amazing show that stuck with me.”

Last April, when the faculty of JSU’s drama department gathered to decide on productions for the 2012 season, Hooper submitted a proposal to perform “The

“The Syringa Tree” WHEN: Today-Saturday, 7 p.m.; Sunday, 2 p.m.

there weren’t any preconceived notions and now we’re all along for the ride.”

And what an emotional ride it will be.

“The Syringa Tree” is a powerful play that deals with racism, loss, isolation, as well as love, friendship and the ties that bind humanity. Despite the challenging nature of the play, Hooper has no worries about how audiences will receive it.

“I have no reservations,” she said. “Theater is an art form. We are here to express our opinions and to show the reality of situations in a way that people can easily understand. This is a history lesson … and if you can’t handle that kind of truth, then you have the freedom to walk out.

“But what I hope is that, through this show, people will learn to embrace one another regardless of where they come from.”

Syringa Tree,” with her as director. To graduate, which Hooper will do in two weeks, JSU drama students must first complete a senior practicum — or project. For Hooper, “The Syringa Tree” is her senior practicum.

And while she may be directing her friends and peers — including her roommate — Hooper says that no egos have gotten in the way of the production.

“It’s honestly been fantastic,” she said. “This is a small department, so we all know each other and we’re all professionals. It’s not been hard to establish the difference between work versus play.”

But Hooper had to learn her own style of directing. Generally, there are four professors within the department who direct plays and each has their own approach — not so with Hooper, who was an unknown commodity, even among her classmates.

“Before, we pretty much knew what to expect if it was a (Susan) McCain show or Kayleig an (Eric) Traynor show, but in a scenheSmith, Jos hu from ‘The S a Cody H nobody really knew what un yring Sbum a Tree t and Erin to expect with me … and neither itted .’

Jaleel White: from Urkel to ‘Dancing With the Stars’

By David Hiltbrand Philadelphia Inquirer

PHILADELPHIA — When Jaleel White first entered prime time, it was 1990 and he was 12. He was brought on to ABC’s TGIF comedy “Family Matters” for a onetime guest spot.

He ended up stealing the show and enjoyed a celebrated nine-year run as love-struck, nerdy neighbor Steve Urkel. (He also played, at times, Steve’s Dixiefried cousin Myrtle and his super-suave alter ego Stefan Urquelle.)

Now at 35, he’s back on ABC competing on “Dancing With the Stars.” The show biz climate has grown noticeably nastier in the interim, and White has become a tabloid target, including a rumor of clashing with his dance partner, Kym Johnson. The former child star remains an affable guy with an unquenchable urge to entertain.

Amid “Dancing’s” virtually nonstop schedule of rehearsing and performing, he indulged us in an email version of Ten Questions.

Question: You’re the son of a dentist. Have you ever had a cavity?

Jaleel White: Yup (insert shame face here).

Q: You did dozens of commercials as a kid.

What do you remember from the Pudding Pop ad you did with Bill Cosby when you were 6?

JW: I just remember the Cos always having a cigar in his mouth and me not wanting to eat Pudding Pops for a long, long time after so many takes.

Q: If you had known then what you know now, what would you have done to get ready for the show?

ABC via Associated Press

Actor Jaleel White and his partner Kym Johnson perform on the celebrity dance competition series, ‘Dancing with the Stars,’ in Los Angeles.

JW: There is no way to prepare for the challenge that is “Dancing With the Stars” other than to get your cardio up, Up, UP! Q: How fierce was the fighting among the careerdance ladies to be your partner?

JW: Haha. No fighting at all. Who you end up with is a surprise to both partners.

Q: You danced in a Cee Lo Green video. What moves in your repertoire are not proving useful in the ballroom?

JW: Anything from the Michael Jackson or Bobby Brown music video era will not help me here.

Q: What’s your routine

after a full day of rehearsals?

JW: EPSOM SALT BATHS. LoL. And watching episodes of “Dexter.”

Q: When you step out on the floor to perform with Kym, what’s going through your mind?

JW: You KNOW this, J. Don’t screw up the afterparty.

Q: You must have been pressured, but you’ve stayed away from dressing like Steve Urkel, or saying his catchphrase or doing his hideous signature dance. Why? JW: Most people are interested in seeing me dance well and aren’t inter-

ested in me making a mockery of my old character. It’s like 2 out of 10 people who want that.

Q: What’s the wildest offer you’ve ever gotten to reprise Urkel?

JW: Reality show where I play foster dad to nerdy kids. Niiiiiice.

Q: What’s it going to take for you to win this thing?

JW: Fun and consistency.

Rest, routine and effort.

The last bit is the fun. I’ve been so pumped to go out on Monday nights with all the dancers after the show.

I don’t want to be the one guy who didn’t dance well that night. So I get after it in rehearsal.

Johnson stopped being a series regular in 1994. As TVGuide.com reported, she “only acts these days when paged by the soap (for guest appearances).
