Amref Art Ball
It was a packed house at the Amref Health Africa ArtBall, held on Saturday night in Chelsea. The benefit, now in its second year, offered art for auction by over forty African artists from over fifteen countries throughout Africa. Amref Health Africa is the largest African-based health development non-profit in the world, creating and strengthening health systems at the grassroots level. This year ArtBall honored acclaimed Ghanaian artist El Anatsui with the Rees Visionary Award. “It’s an honor to receive this award and support Amref Health Africa’s life changing work in the health space,” said Anatsui. “All of the artists gathered
here today are a testament to what passion, talent, and pride in one’s heritage can achieve when given the right forum. Through ArtBall, we have all been united through our love for art and our cultures, and our belief that health equality is critical for all.” Jack Shainman was the Honorary Host of the event. A mainstay of the New York art scene since the 80s, Shainman has a celebrated multicultural roster of artists he represents — including Anatsui. Live auction art pieces included unique artwork by Wangechi Mutu and Malicke Sidibe, as well as new and emerging contemporary artists. Art donated for the online auction, hosted
by Artsy, covered the walls. The auction launched prior to the event and guests were invited to bid the night of. Dr. Massimiliano del Ninno, a returning Patron for the event and owner of Kyo Noir in Viterbo, Italy, was key in donating artwork from his own personal collection, and bringing together some of the artists who also donated. The funds raised at ArtBall help
Amref Health Africa’s innovative programs that span across thirty-five countries and build the health systems of thousands of communities including health development initiatives, such as midwifery, and community healthworker training. A performance by Young Paris followed by DJ Cuppy closed out the night. For more information in Amref visit www.amref.org.

Archie Comic Memorabilia In Montauk By Jessica Mackin-Cipro
Nancy Silberkleit’s Archie Comic Memorabilia will be on display at the Montauk Library throughout the month of May. Silberkleit, an East Hampton resident, is the Co-CEO of Archie Comics. Through the exhibit Silberkleit poses an anti-bullying message to visitors. “I feel it is very important for folks to be involved in an activity, a hobby, even if it’s the art of being a collector,” said Silberkleit. She believes that when a child encounters a bully they feel powerless. If they are able to turn to something they are interested in, while it may not solve the problem, it does help build self esteem. “With bullying comes isolation,” said Silberkleit. A child experiencing bullying can be left with loneliness and self doubt. Silberkleit, who also gives antibullying speeches throughout the country, believes that being a collector, whether it’s of comic books or something else, can build self confidence while helping a child to socialize. Through having this hobby, passion and creativity will become part of a child’s personality in a positive way. According to stopbullying.gov, “Bullying is unwanted, aggressive behavior among school aged children that involves a real or perceived power imbalance. The behavior is repeated, or has the potential to be repeated, over time.” Whether it’s cyber bullying or teasing in class, kids who are bullied may have lasting issues including depression and anxiety, a loss of interest in activities, health complaints, and decreased academic achievement.

Independent/ RobertBanat.com Benjamin Keating’s Portrait of Her by a Sculptor, 2010, Aluminum, 47 x 29 inches.
By Jessica Mackin-Cipro
Tripoli Gallery in Southampton presents Benjamin Keating's debut solo exhibition "On View." The show will run from Friday through June 11th and feature "works on paper", "paintings," and sculptural maquettes, all made out of solid metal. In the studio, Keating starts with his familiar mediums of molten metal, and then looks to current objects in his life to deconstruct, only to later immortalize them. Getting his first taste in the arts through fantasized realities via his words as a poet, and then creating these worlds through playwriting in high school, his vision has always been keen. In 1998, Keating moved to Bridgehampton and started his first
studio practice where he worked and lived for two years. In “On View,” Keating will unveil selections of his most recent works. All are hand cast in aluminum and bronze, and one of a kind. Wax also becomes a major element in his work, though only temporarily, as he paints and sculpts with it on the canvases, or draws with it on the paper, carving poems or markmaking into its surface. Mini wood chairs are fractured and reassembled with frames and supports to hold them together before they too are frozen by hot metals and readied to endure the test of time. The exhibition will open w ith a recepti on for th e ar ti st on Saturday from 6 to 8 PM.

Reconstructed Bra Fashion Show By Jessica Mackin-Cipro The seventh annual Reconstructed Bra Fashion Show and Auction to benefit Lucia’s Angels and the Coalition for Women’s Cancers at Southampton Hospital will be held on Thursday, May 18, at the Southampton Social Club, starting at 7 PM. After seven years of fashion shows, artists are still coming up with new and creative ways to reconstruct bras into wearable works of art. “We’ve had very few repeated themes on bras. But, even so the materials, look, and/or approach for each has been so vastly different,” said Stacy Quarty, co-chair of the Bra Auction, President of Lucia’s Angels and VP of Coalition for Women’s Cancers at Southampton Hospital. Each year new artists from the East End are asked to donate their materials, time, and talent. Bra titles include The Swatch Bra, Queen of Hearts, Treasure Chest, Pink Elephants, and Bountiful Blooms, to name a few. Lucia’s Angels helps families on the East End that are struggling with late stage women’s cancers. This includes breast cancer, ovarian cancer, uterine cancer, and cervical cancer. Created in memory of Lucia Terzi Bagan, a giving woman that was loved by many, the foundation provides help to those in need, funding everything from housecleaning and babysitting, to helping with rent and health insurance premiums. According to the Lucia’s Angels website “It was Lucia’s wish that other women and their families could have that same kind of love and support through their toughest times.” “That’s what Lucia’s Angels is. Trying to provide all we can for the people that really need the help,” said Quarty in a video on the foundation’s homepage. Susan Barry Roden, President of Coalition for Women’s Cancers at Southampton Hospital and VP of Lucia’s Angels, said the Coalition’s mission is “to raise awareness about the importance of early detection. If a women doesn’t have health insurance or is under insured we can get them a free mammogram, pap smear, and clinical breast exam.” At this year’s Reconstructed Bra Fashion Show models will walk the
runway in the uniquely designed bras, created by artists and supporters. The event features 20 reconstructed bras worn by local models and auctioned off live.
Guests will also have the chance to bid on any of eight luxury “Bucket List” trips that are also up for auction. Destinations include Napa Valley, Greece, Amalfi Coast, New Delhi,
Hawaii, Switzerland, Spain, and France. Tickets are $55 in advance and $65 at the door. For tickets visit www. luciasangels.org/bra.

Broadway Reporting From
By Isa Goldberg
For its graceful legion of dancers, and for the return of Bette Midler to Broadway, let us say, “Hello, Dolly!“ In this revival of the popular show, by Michael Stewart (book) and Jerry Herman (music and lyrics), director Jerry Zaks and choreographer Warren Carlyle recreate the flow of song, story and motion that distinguished Gower Champion’s original choreography and direction. These dancers are literally on their toes, and the pageantry and whimsy they bring to this revival recreates one of the best-staged musicals of all time. In every respect, it’s a beautiful show to watch. Santo Loquasto’s murals and scrims are in and of themselves classics of American landscape painting. And his costumes are just as eye popping and camp. Speaking of camp, Bette Midler plays Dolly Levi with natural aplomb. She‘s even a tad understated at first, becoming full blown fantastic in her second act numbers, “So Long Dearie” and, of course, “Hello, Dolly!” Indeed, the second act is a delightful rally of raucous interludes. My favorite is the restaurant scene, with the waiters in their white gloves and red tails. Staged like a French farce, the action flows seamlessly as the crowd of waiters and keystone cops lead patrons into the judge’s chambers for disturbing the peace, along with other infractions. Meanwhile, Dolly continues to gnaw, eagerly and without interruption, on a turkey bone, the size of which evokes the image of a pre-historic creature. As the object of her romantic quest, Horace Vandergelder, David Hyde Pierce appears utterly at ease. At moments, he aptly makes fun of himself and the image we have of him as staid, overly reasoning, and a bit tart. It all comes out when he reiterates the word, “no,” as convincingly as a three-year-old and with equally piercing insistence. As the prospective match for Vandergelder, Kate Baldwin portrays the milliner Irene Molloy. Reputed to be something of a witch, Baldwin belies the rumor with a voice so sweet and rich that we are instantly seduced. It’s an entirely delightful cast with the likes of Gavin Creel and Taylor Trensch as the two youthful sidekicks. And Jennifer Simard brings comic panache to her role as Dolly’s trashy girlfriend. Whether or not it matters, Dolly is a show with a moral, albeit humorously stated. “Money,” The Matchmaker claims, “is like manure. It’s not worth a thing unless it’s spread around encouraging young things to grow.” Be that as it may, this production has the most age diverse cast, that I’ve seen in a Broadway musical of late. And many of its more senior members are chorus dancers. Still an uplifting show and this, a delightful revival!
(& Sometimes Off)
Bandstand A new American musical, Bandstand, raises the stakes on a storied cliché. That a bunch of guys start a band, and fulfill their dream of becoming famous seems to be as hackneyed as it can get. But Richard Oberacker and RobTaylor, the creative duo who are making their Broadway debut here, bring an innocence and vitality to a story every boy and girl imagines, and which the show’s creators run with, to the heights. Set in 1945 in the aftermath of WWII, our American veterans return home to desperate lives. While the human drama is contemporary, the music is of the period in which it’s set. And what a pleasure it is to hear Oberacker’s compositions - a mix of blues, jazz and swing, with some brassy sounding horns lifting out of the bass and drums that play the rhythm. Certainly the music is one of the production’s highlights. These songs carry a sensibility and a texture that distinguish themselves from many a new musical. Another is Andy Blankenbuehler’s gorgeous choreography. The Tony Award winning choreographer of Hamilton creates a kind of jazz ballet that reveals the nightmares of war, as well as daily life - especially the dances at the clubs they perform. Graceful, with reach and snap and speed and masculine strength, it’s dance that tells the story here. With this new work, he demonstrates a diversity of style that is unusual, given that choreographers, the likes of Bob Fosse and Jerome Robbins, are famed for bringing distinct styles of dance to the Broadway musical. Blankenbuehler also directs the production, bringing together an ensemble of distinct characters, each of whom transforms through the course of the story. As Julia Trojan, the widow of an American soldier, who becomes the lead singer in the band, Laura Osnes does a remarkable acting job. Having played the ingenue in many a musical from Grease to Cinderella, Osnes has always been in fine voice and delightful form. Here, she transcends those generic roles to create a character who thrives through the loss of innocence. A traumatized army veteran, Donny Novitski (Corey Cott), starts the band, and wins the girl, in a complex twist of fate. Surprisingly strong, musically and emotionally, Cott is really dynamic. The other guys in the band each display the scars of war through their music, which also tells their story, of sacrifice and honor. Bandstand is a laudable work, steeped in classical American music and dance styles, with a nostalgic sense of story telling that still requires attention.
Hello, Dolly!
Come From Away So this guy goes shopping and the check out lady says, “Thank you for shopping at Walmart. Would you like to use my house for a shower?” Mind you, this comes as no surprise. The guy says yes, and the checkout lady finishes her shift and brings this complete stranger into her home. In Come From Away, the new Broadway musical, the apocryphal events we see took place on one day in 2001, when 7000 people arrived by plane in an emergency landing in Gander Newfoundland, nearly doubling the native population. The date was 9/11. As reported, Come From Away appears to be the season’s sleeper. Not exactly the hottest ticket from the get-go, this little musical with a handful of actor/singers, in everyday clothes (costumes by Toni-Leslie James) is staged on a bare bones, albeit multifunctional, set (Beowulf Boritt). Still, it seems to have all of the production values New York audiences want to embrace. While tragic events were taking
place in other parts of the world, these everyday denizens demonstrated the humanity to embrace the stranded, frightened plane-wrecked passengers who landed on their doorstep. In fact, their actions reflect a notion of populism that is unlike the current wave. Neither aggressive toward the other nor protective of themselves, they demonstrated virtue beyond all else. In 90 minutes, without an intermission, we get to know the passengers and Newfoundlanders. Among them, Jenn Colella plays American Airline’s first woman captain, and Chad Kimball portrays both a local Newfoundlander and an illustrious passenger. In fact, all of the actors play a multitude of roles – just as most people, in most communities, also do. Kelly Devine brings an easy buoyant charm to the choreography, and Christopher Ashley’s direction leaves this humble tale in the hands of an earnest ensemble. But what is most refreshing are Irene Sankoff ‘s and David Hein’s book, music, and lyrics, which reveal grace in simplicity, and good faith in humankind.

The Boathouse Shelter Island
The Boathouse Shelter Island is a new private event space located at the Island Boatyard & Marina on Shelter Island. The recently renovated 4000 square foot space features over 200 feet of waterfront overlooking West Neck Harbor offering incredible sunset views. The historic building, dating back to the 1920s with its original use as storage for boats, debuts a new look with versatility for any style event. The Boathouse has seen many uses from boat storage and lobster storage to most notably a recording studio. Grammy award winning musician and East End resident Billy Joel recorded his last rock album River of Dreams at The Boathouse in1993. Joel found the location both inspiring and secluded, perfect for working on his music.
The new Boathouse features a chic yet rustic style. The open ceiling creates an elegant atmosphere. The deck extends the entertaining space with a classic blue and white striped awning. Situated on 18 acres of land on picturesque Shelter Island, The Boathouse includes an additional five acres of outdoor event space. The event space includes a large dining/event space as well as a prep area, comfortable sitting room, and three bathrooms. Additionally, a 42-foot Grand Banks classic vessel is available for use as a bridal suite, arrival vessel, or small group use.
