Those auditioning should arrive at 9:45 a.m. and plan to stay for a full two hours. Some of the cast members will be asked to stay for a rehearsal immediately following auditions.

There is a $10 participation fee per student cast for the full week of summer theater. Performances are scheduled for 7 p.m. Friday, July 27 and 3 p.m. Saturday, July 28 at the Liberty Theater.

Auditions “Hansel and Gretel” 10 a.m. Monday, July 23 Liberty Theater 1203 Commercial St., Astoria (503) 325-5922 www.liberty-theater.org $10 participation fee for cast members start. Their clothes are strange – and so are their names. Lost in the deep, dark woods, Hansel and Gretel search for the path which will lead them to better times at home. But as evening approaches and the moon rises above the trees, Hansel

and Gretel are not alone. Nasty Nasties dart from tree to tree as sweet little Wallybirds innocently munch on the cookie crumbs left as a map on the forest floor. Crafty cooks and Gingerbread Men lead our heroes to a colorful cottage concocted completely of candy and cakes, where Hansel and Gretel unravel the secret of the Wildwood Witch. There’s music and laughter and thrills and chills. So join the fun as Hansel and Gretel’s dream is mysteriously blended with real life, and the lessons of one apply to the other. You’ll learn the secret of the Wildwood – but, shhh – don’t tell.

BY LAURA SNYDER ALEX PAJUNAS — THE DAILY ASTORIAN

River People Farmers Market Healthy local food offered in upbeat gathering place

rightly colored fabric flags wave in the breeze, beckoning passersby to the second season of the River People Farmers Market every Thursday afternoon through September. An infectious, hard-working and idealistic enthusiasm transforms a parking lot at the corner of 13th and Duane streets in Astoria from a slab of pavement to an upbeat gathering place where one can buy healthy local food and chat with the farmers who grow it. Kristin Frost Albrecht is the director of the North Coast Food Web, one of many devoted community partners that make the market happen. She says that farmers markets are a way to revitalize a community while providing broad access to locally grown foods. Coordinators aim to dash the myth that local, high-quality food must be out of the financial reach of low-income people. “There’s an assumption that farmers markets are for people with money, but we want everyone, especially low-income people, to have access to the market,” said Frost Albrecht. The North Coast Food Web’s simple, yet profound and challenging mission is “Bringing Local Food to Everyone,” and to that end vendors accept SNAP cards and Senior and WIC nutrition coupons. According to Frost Albrecht, Clatsop County is ranked 35th out of 36 counties in agricultural

food production in Oregon, a fact she hopes to change through the web of partnerships growing out of the North Coast Food Web. It is nearly impossible to map this complex web in its entirety; suffice it to say it is ever-growing and expanding its reach in immensely positive ways. For example, Renia Ydstie, food systems coordinator for the North Coast Food Web, runs a grant-funded Young Farmers Program through the Warrenton Food Bank, whose participants work at the market and learn about food systems and farming. Ydstie also spearheads a school gardens initiative and the Mobile Gardens Project, an innovative use of discarded grocery carts as tiny gardens on wheels that makes growing food accessible to people without land, resources, or knowledge to do so. Of benefit to River People vendors is what Frost Albrecht describes as an “incubating environment for new farmers and products. It enables people to try out a new business venture without huge expense.” She emphasizes that there is a great need for these businesses and not enough

farmers to fill it. More than 1,000 people attended the opening of the second season market June 21, and many vendors sold out of the products and produce they brought. Brooke Duling is the founder and proprietor of Love Warrior Gardens. She appreciates the River People Farmers Market’s emphasis on small local growers. “They don’t bring in big farms from the valley,” she said. “We’re limited to what’s available here, so that levels the playing field.” Duling is pleased with the market as “a great way to be seen in the community. It’s been helpful to meet people and get my name out there.” There’s something for everyone at this tiny North Coast gem of a market. The Market Café offers a delectable selection of prepared foods, from Meadow Harvest burgers and lamb brats to Salade Nicoise, tuna sandwiches and shortcake du jour. All use real plates and utensils, striving to be a zero-waste market. The children’s booth offers gardening and nutrition lessons and story time, and OSU Master Gardeners are on hand to answer

questions. Each week features a musician as well. Theresa Retzlaff, co-owner of 46 North Farm, North Coast Food Web board member and River People vendor, loves the small, intimate feel of this Thursday afternoon market. Retzlaff said, “I love the community feeling here. You have that sense of people coming together.” The list of vendors promises a wide variety of local produce and products. 46 North Farm, A & B Farms, Lazy Creek Farm and Island’s End Farm offer North Coast plant starts, berries, potatoes, lettuces and much more. Of course, as the summer progresses, produce offerings will expand accordingly. Skipanon Seafood and Meadow Harvest Farm provide the protein: from Skipanon smoked and canned fish as well as shrimp and crab; and from Meadow Harvest lamb and beef pasture-raised in the Nehalem Valley. Love Warrior Gardens is back with medicinal herbs and hand-crafted tinctures. Community partners the Astoria Coop and the Blue Scorcher Bakery are on hand offering samples and selling their products. Juice Box makes juices to order, and the list goes on. Don’t miss the River People Farmers Market from 3 to 6 p.m. every Thursday through September, at the corner of 13th and Duane in Astoria. Pun aside, River People Farmers Market is a cornucopia of bright colors, wonderful smells and tastes, and cheerful good health.

ASTORIA – Everett Bone will play at 8 p.m. Saturday, July 14, at Rio Cafe and Cantina, 125 Ninth St. There is no cover charge. Everett Bone played his first professional gig by age 17. By age 21, he had joined a touring band, Mustang Sally and the Blame, and became familiar with life on the road. While the few years that he spent playing with Mustang Sally improved his performance and playing skills, it did not fulfill his need to create his own music. At age 25, Bone started playing with other bands and exploring other styles. At age 27, he formed and led the band Pain for Pleasure 8 p.m. Saturday, July 14 for a year. The band recorded and Rio Cafe and Cantina produced a CD, and received regular airplay on radio stations in the 125 Ninth St., Astoria state and beyond. The band was No cover featured on a compilation disc showcasing top Arkansas acts, performed during a live webcast, radio interviews and live, in-studio performances and opened for ’80s-’90s rock giant Skid Row. In 2005, Bone moved to Washington state. He has played shows at venues and festivals in Washington and Canada, including the Oyster Run, Deming Log Show and FOKfest, as well as at casinos and private events. He continues to record and play acoustic solo shows in between hired gigs with other bands and won the 2011 Seattle Battle of the Bands at Studio 7, with his band, Red Sea.

LightBox Photographic Gallery Five photographers come together ‘When Pigs Fly’ ASTORIA – LightBox Photographic Gallery will present the inaugural exhibit of “When Pigs Fly” Photography Collective in July and August, exhibiting work from five of the nation’s most talented fine art photographers. A pre-opening cocktail reception will be held for the “Pigs” from 3 to 5 p.m. Saturday, July 14, for an opportunity to meet the artists. The opening of “When Pigs Fly” will be from 6 to 9 p.m. The exhibit includes the work of Ann George of Shreveport, La.; Lori Vrba of Chapel Hill, N.C.; Judy Sherrod of Wichita Falls, Kan.; S. Gayle Stevens of Downers Grove, Ill.; and Anne Berry of Newnan, Ga. The group originated with the shared experience of the five women spending a week together in Ossobaw Island, Ga. in July 2011. The idea is: When pigs fly, impossible things hap8 | July 12, 2012 | coastweekend.com

pen. In the words of Berry, “We made our first trip as a collective to Ossabaw. Looking at the surface of the lives and work of the members of ‘When Pigs Fly,’one might wonder not only how we came together, but also how we can call ourselves a collective. Our work has obvious differences: five subjects, five ways of capturing an image, five processes. Yet the photographs share an aesthetic. They are not straight photographic prints; in each image the hand of artist is evident. We share a sensibility that comes from the appreciation of nature and beauty and also a Southern heritage. The willingness to share ideas and experiment with technique is what formed the collective.” The “Pigs” work in traditional and alternative photographic processes, in-

cluding wet-plate collodion, giant pinhole images and hand-colored and toned silver gelatin prints. Stevens will be shooting portraits using the wet-plate process Saturday afternoon. “This is a great opportunity to have a portrait made in this 150-year-old historic process by one of the country’s most recognized practitioners of the wet plate collodion,” said Michael Granger. Contact the gallery for more details and information about these portraits; the cost is $40. The exhibit will remain at the gallery through Aug. 25. LightBox is located at 1045 Marine Drive. Hours are from 11 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday. Contact LightBox at (503) 468-0238 or info@lightbox-photographic.com for more information.

Be careful what you wish for

hoped that my garden might someday be on the Lower Columbia Preservation Society’s annual garden tour, so I was flattered when they asked me to be on this year’s tour, July 14. I respond well to flattery – I said “Yes.” About an hour later, apprehension set in. My garden is only in its fourth year, and all that time I’ve been practicing Darwinian gardening: what survives, stays. Now I had a deadline to finish my half-finished garden projects. The problem? My garden was mostly half-finished projects. The garden to the side of my house is sort of a cottage garden, but the largest part is my “New Moon” oriental garden. I’ve tried to make it look older than it is with things like an antique stone lantern, but the oriental garden of Le Roy Adolphson and David Drafall, also on the tour, has been developing for 30 years. Thirty years! They have 47 Japanese maples, all different. Forty-seven! There’s a bridge with interlaced wisteria and clematis. There are beautiful paths, beds, fountains, and even a Chinese moon gate. I was startled to find that the country garden of Jerry and Mary Lee Alderman, with 80-yearold rhododendrons in the front, has a Japanese garden as well, with a koi-filled pond about as large as my entire garden. “It’s a work in progress,” says Jerry Alderman, “We didn’t plan for it to be a showcase.” It is, though, and you’ll find camellias, evergreen huckleberries, Mexican orange, pieris, Japanese maples, bamboo, vine maples and a grove of alder trees. There are also oriental touches in the garden of

Waterfall and koi pond in the garden of Jerry and Mary Lee Alderman.

I set about enlisting a “dream team” of gardeners to help me out. They had gardens of their own, of course, but they pitched in. You find out who your real friends are when you ask then to pull clover and train the jasmine. I encouraged them with barbecue. I asked artist Rhonda Grudenic to create one of her prayer flag installations for the tour, and she stayed to weed. And weed. She took to coming over at odd times to weed some more, apparently as a kind of meditation. Not everything is done, but a little good weather and I should be able to pour the last concrete and finish the last fence. Why don’t you come by to see?

“We have a great cast, they’re really hard workers. I see changes that have happened since I was gone, little bits added here and there. And some of the stuff that I changed when I directed before has stayed. But I’m trying to tune it up and get a fire under the actors.” “I want to see some new spark. We’re putting a modern twist on some of it.”

New faces And there are several new actors this year, each putting a new spin on an old cherished “Shanghaied” character. “We’ve got a couple new young people in the show and a man who actually got shanghaied into ‘Shanghaied,’” said Niland. “Carly (Carleta Lewis Allen) was 14 when she started in ‘Shanghaied.’ She went off to study theater in Los Angeles – she’s a professional choreographer now – and then 10 years later she came back and dragged her boyfriend along.” Sure enough, boyfriend Jason Hippert is part of the cast this year, but he couldn’t be happier about it. “When I moved here – I’d acted in high school and in drama class – I heard about ‘Shanghaied’ and I said, ‘Man, I’d love to be in that.’ And now I am. I love working with the whole cast and making new friends. I’ve met so many great people.” When asked how he prepared to step into the role of Sneak, Hippert said, “Well, I’d heard about Sneaky, that he was slimy and snaky. Then Nate said to watch the Snidely Whiplash character (arch villain of Dudley Do-Right) and I got more of an idea from that.” “‘Shanghaied’ is supposed to be over the top, so when I go on stage as Sneak, I play him sort of like the Hunchback of Notre Dame. He’s sort of Popeye the Sailor Man meets an extremely evil Daffy Duck. One time, I was doing Sneak with Sneak’s voice and Nate said, ‘Put a lisp on the end of that.’ And that was it, the lisp. It clicked – you just know and you say, ‘That’s the character!’”

to even see the show. I play Rosie, and, how can I put it? She’s one of the more popular girls in town.” “In terms of how to create Rosie’s personality, I was told maybe create someone not all that intellectual but someone who thinks she’s intellectual. We gave her a few set pieces and I started to get the feel of it.” But the real breakthrough for Blackwell came in a different form than a Stanislavski method acting approach. “I just started thinking, ‘If Rosie were a real person, what color would her hair be?’ That really made her come alive for me,” said Blackwell. “I decided she was a strawberry blonde with those fat orange-can curlers – she was that kind of girl. “Then I knew I could make her believable. I decided not to give her a different kind of voice. I’m not Scandinavian so I don’t know how to do all those ‘yahs.’” Rose has a truly distinctive costume. “Rosie has a bright fuchsia skirt with black and gold lace, and a deep, dark purple paisley top covered by a black and gold corset with all kinds of garish colored jewelry.” “I’ve begun to let loose with her,” Blackwell said.

“We have a great cast, they’re really hard workers.” “I want to see some new spark. We’re putting a modern twist on some of it.”

Longtime supporter of Astor Street Opry Company and publicist Judy Niland says, “I think, and somebody will have to prove me wrong, that we are the longest continuously running community theater production. “I’ve researched it and I think it is a record for a theater run for a nonprofit with unpaid actors,” she said. “You can find pageants and there is a Hilton Hotel chain somewhere in the Catskills

that has a long-running melodrama. But this form of locally produced musical – we’re the oldest I’ve ever found.”

Keeping it fresh

So, after nearly 30 years of putting on the same play, how do they keep it fresh? Nate Bucholz, this year’s “Shanghaied” director, has a partial

answer. “I was in ‘Shanghaied’ from 1989 to 1999 – eight years of acting and two years of directing. Then for family reasons, we just needed to move to Tampa, Fla. But every summer, without ‘Shanghaied,’ I would start to get itchy for something to do.” “I wanted to come back pretty much since the day I left,” he said, “but sometimes you have to take some risks. Coming back up here, I got to start all over again with casting and we have just as many talented people now as we had before.

Popular Rosie Another new face in the cast is Jody Blackwell. “This is my first year in the show and my first year

Zachary Sandoval plays a Chinese man in “Shanghaied in Astoria.” Here he waves an American flag in the Seaside fourth of July parade.

Double-trouble for Eric As director Bucholz said, “It took me two weeks to figure out how to direct a double cast. There are two characters who play Eric. But the two Erics don’t need to be alike. You know, there are all individual kinds of crooks and sneaks so there’s no need for them to be the same.” Matthew Zedwick plays one of the two Erics. According to Niland, Zedwick actually has an action character modeled after him. “He’s a war hero,” she said. “They gave him a Silver Star and he has an action doll.” The other Eric is played by Sneak-actor Hippert, “Eric is sort of the exact opposite of Sneak,” said Hippert, “but I like doing them both. I don’t have a favorite.” And neither does Bucholz. He likes the range. “I want to see Matthew and Jason create their own versions. They play their own individual kinds of Eric.” So maybe that’s the trick, maybe that’s what makes “Shanghaied” fresh every year – new cast, new director, new spin on the material and people every year who are seeing it for the first time.

aution was my first instinct walking into El Compadre after so many trips into the myriad Tex-Mex establishments of our area. I’ve called such places interchangeable, and the criticism I’ve leveled against the sameness of them so far suggests that this is not going to change. I’ve lost track of how many I’ve tried. But the fact that I visit each one like a completist “collects ’em all” would suggests that I’m looking to eventually find one that rises above the mediocrity and repetition. While Tex-Mex will always be Tex-Mex, there exist those restaurants within the genre that offer a little bit more in the way of authentic Mexican food (if you look down in the corner of the menu, and maybe ask a couple of questions of your server). Luckily, El Compadre in Warrenton is one such example. You enter the colorful dining room and wait to be seated as the festive music plays overhead. Once escorted to a booth or table, the hot chips and thin salsa soon arrive, much like anywhere else. We encountered a couple of problems with service. Not attitude, just timeliness and attention to detail. Many minutes elapsed between the chips and salsa and the drink orders. On another occasion, we sat with empty drinks waiting to order our appetizer and entrees. Both times the restaurant was well staffed and light on customers. One visit had us staring at a platter of appetizers with no individual side plates. I opted to wait, but a couple of guests made use of their hands and napkins. I finally ended up using the empty chip bowl as a dish. My other fastidious guest used the platter.

COAST WEEKEND’S LOCAL RESTAURANT REVIEW mouth@coastweekend.com As I’ve done for reviews of Tex-Mex and Chinese-American restaurants this past year, I’ll spare you the tedium of reading detailed descriptions of the simplest, most commonly ordered items, as these tend to be pretty much identical from location to location. It would suffice to say that the beans and rice are exactly as expected, accompany most dishes, and are perfectly acceptable. Something that’s always bothered me about restaurants like El Compadre is that despite the size of the menu, the sides never go beyond the beans and rice. Although it’s rather useless to complain about something that will never change, it doesn’t seem to stop me. If you’re looking for predictably reliable combo items such as tacos, enchiladas, chimichangas and burritos, you’ll do fine at El Compadre. A couple of standout items are the tamales

($3.50 a la carte), which are among the best in the area – moist, but with the appropriate density and amount of filling – and the chile rellenos ($5.25 a la carte), big poblanos stuffed with too much cheese to keep inside and coated with delicious egg batter. One little inconsistency I noticed involves the taquitos. A taquito is generally a corn tortilla filled with chicken or beef, rolled tight like a cigar, and deep fried to a crisp; it’s a manageable hand food. The chicken taquito appetizer ($9.25) is (as stated on the menu) a deep-fried flour tortilla, but thicker and flatter, and cut into 3-inch pieces. This is more like a flauta, which is actually found elsewhere on the menu. The more traditional taquito is sold as an entree as Taquitos Rancheros ($11.25). It was delicious, but despite the menu’s promise of corn, was made again with flour tortillas, albeit tightly wrapped in the cigar shape. While these dishes were a little dif-

ferent than expected, they were by no means disappointing. I did, however, sample a couple of dishes that were. An order of Chorizo con Huevos ($9.95) was not up to par. The usually deep red spicy sausage was here a pallid ground pork amidst the scrambled eggs, devoid of spice or redemption. Chuletas de Puerco ($11.95) were the thinnest pork chops I’ve ever seen, and I’ve dined at Portland’s Acropolis! These stacked wouldn’t measure three-quarters of an inch, and under different circumstances would be perfect for bone-in pork jerky. I did find the onion, mushroom and tomato saute atop the chops served to conciliate. There are two items that impressed me enough to suggest that El Compadre is a bit better than the rest, offering something a little different. The Pescado Dorado ($12.95) is a whole fried tilapia. Though not my favorite fish, I like the crispy texture, I like dissecting it and finding pockets of flesh after I’ve finished the main slabs. Not all that flavorful on its own, there are any number of condiments available from the kitchen if you just let them know what you’re after. The other item is one I’ve not yet seen in a Tex-Mex restaurant: a game hen. The Gordonis ($12.25) is marinated and rubbed with savory spices, then split down the back and grilled, butterfly-style. The breast stays connected as the leg and thigh lay to either side. It’s an intriguing display, as most nonethnic restaurants like to show off the hen trussed, roasted and whole, often stuffed. This humble presentation is fitting for a cuisine that rarely garnishes beyond a fried jalapeno. I’m nowhere near finished with Tex-Mex in this vicinity, but I’m certainly taking a hiatus.

‘Into the Woods’ Endearing fairytale becomes magical musical CHINOOK, WASH. – The Peninsula Association of Performing Artists (PAPA) will open its summer musical, “Into the Woods,” Friday, July 13, at the Fort Columbia Theater. “Into the Woods” will be performed at 7 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays and 3 p.m. Sundays, through Aug. 5. Because of an agreement with the Washington State Parks Department, a Discover Pass is not required to attend the show. The cost of tickets is $17 for adults and $5 for ages 15 and younger. Fort Columbia is located on U.S. Highway 101 west of the north end of the Astoria Bridge. “Into the Woods” is a whimsical story written by James Lapine, with music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim. The original show won Tony awards in 1986 for “Best Book of a Musical,” “Original Score” and “Best Actress in a Musical.” The production will be directed by Barbara Poulshock. “Into the Woods” is a seamless fusion of

several fairytales that strike at the child’s heart within everyone. A baker and his wife journey into the woods (with their magic beans) in search of “a cow as white as milk, a cape as red as blood, hair as yellow as corn and a slipper as pure as gold,” all of which are needed to lift the curse that has kept them childless. This witty musical leaves audiences laughing out loud, fighting back tears and transformed by the experience, organizers said. PAPA was formed in 2008 to provide theater arts to the community, both as entertainment and as a learning tool for young people and the young at heart. Since its inception, PAPA has produced “Fiddler On The Roof,” “Once Upon a Mattress,” “Hello Dolly” and “The Sound of Music.” Tickets are available at Okie’s Thriftway in Ocean Park, Wash., Stormin’Norman’s in Long Beach, Wash., and online through PAPA’s website at http://papatheatre.org. For more information, call (360) 665-3637.

Creative Journeys Workshops offered for aspiring or experienced writers MANZANITA – Creative Journeys with Gail Balden will continue the 2012 summer series of one-day creative writing workshops at the Center for Contemplative Arts with two more dates scheduled. Saturday, July 21: “Another Look.” Master the art of your craft whether it’s fiction, narrative nonfiction or short-shorts. Learn to kill your darlings, tighten, get to the heart of the story and be able to give and receive constructive critique. Letting go of your work is just as important as getting started. Saturday, Aug. 18: “Sharing With the World.” This workshop will foster the idea of starting small when it comes to putting your

work into the world. Writers have more opportunities than ever to share their work through ebooks, zines, e-readers and on-demand publishing. Figure out what’s best for you and how to self-promote. Workshops meet from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. and cost $50 each. Class size is limited to a small group. To reserve a space, send a $30 deposit for each class (50 percent of which is nonrefundable if the student cancels) to Gail Balden, 41500 Anderson Road, Nehalem, OR 97131. For more information about the workshops, see www.creativejourneys.net or contact Balden at (503) 368-7807 or gail@creativejourneys.net

The workshops are open to all levels of writers and are packed with encouragement, good advice and writing exercises. Balden is a writer and educator with more than 30 years of teaching experience. Her work has been published in anthologies, literary journals and national magazines. She teaches writing workshops and writes a monthly column about small town life for the North Coast Citizen. The nonprofit Center for Contemplative Arts is located at Underhill Plaza, Manzanita Avenue and Division Street in Manzanita. A portion of the proceeds from each workshop supports the center for ongoing education.

Cannon Beach History Center

ASTORIAROCKs.COM

Beached bird survey training planned CANNON BEACH – Volunteers who would like to help survey for beached birds on the Oregon Coast are invited to a free training session to be held from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. July 14 at the Cannon Beach History Center, 1387 S. Spruce St. Sponsors of the presentation are the Coastal Observation and Seabird Survey Team (COASST), which conducts a volunteer-based beached bird monitoring project in five states, and the CoastWatch program of the Oregon Shores Conservation Coalition, which serves as COASST’s Oregon partner. Participants in the survey help scientists gauge environmental health by collecting data on carcasses of marine birds, on a monthly basis, to establish the baseline pattern of beached bird mortality on North Pacific beaches. Data collected helps address important marine conservation issues that can lead to improved protection of marine resources. COASST Program Coordinator Jane Dolliver will lead the interactive, hands-on workshop. Prospective volunteers will learn how to use the custom COASST field guide, “Beached Birds,” and have a chance to try out their newly acquired identification skills on seabird species common to Oregon. Dolliver has worked closely with Julia Parrish, founder and director of COASST, for

their own sack lunch, or purchase food in the area. To attend, RSVP by calling COASST at (206) 221-6893 or by e-mailing coasst@uw.edu.
