From the Publisher

As season begins anew, it’s hard to imagine where the summer went. We will all soon be gathering for Thanksgiving and then on to the end of the year’s festivities.

It’s the time of the year when Floridians don boots and tights and declare, “It’s winter!” While others up north think we’re odd, this former New Yorker can tell you: At 70 degrees outside, we’re cold.

It can be challenging to get your head around everything our area has to offer this time of the year. From charity galas to fabulous in-home dinner parties, performances at local theaters and luncheons with interesting speakers, this is when we have the most fun.

One of the newest events in town is the Palm Beach Jewelry and Watch Show, put on by prolific jewelry show titans Scott Diament and Rob Samuels. This latest venture in their unparalleled achievements will be more focused on timepieces and jewelry than their annual Palm Beach Jewelry, Art and Antique Show, held in February. But, as they always say, there will be something for everyone, no matter the budget.

By now, you’ve surely received your Kravis Center season program detailing all of the venue’s fabulous offerings, such as The Book of Mormon (I can’t wait to see it!), opera performances and concerts with entertainers such as Chris Botti (a Kravis regular) and the amazing Vanessa Williams. If you haven’t been to the Wick Theatre and Costume Museum in Boca, treat yourself to a show there. You’ll also want to take advantage of the theater’s tour, featuring a knowledgeable docent and a great lunch afterwards.

Follow me on This year, we are thrilled to sponsor some exciting concerts. Head to the Maltz Jutwitter @PBIsales piter Theatre on November 15 to catch Chita—A Legendary Celebration, starring the indefatigable Chita Rivera. Farther south, don’t miss Lynn University’s Philharmonia and the Lynn University Presents series, which showcase the best in student talent.

We’d like to thank PNC Wealth Management for its generous sponsorship of this year’s Cultural Preview. For even more entertainment, flip through this issue’s Art, Entertainment and Culture Guide attached to page 145. There’s sure to be an event, concert or show you’d love to attend with friends and family.

By now, you should be “culture shocked” with the enormity of this season’s offerings. As I will be getting Thanksgiving dinner ready, I will be thinking about everything I’d like to take advantage of this season and hope you will, too.

From the Editor

Every November, you can feel the excitement in the air. By Thanksgiving, most of the winter residents have returned, galas and cocktails are already crowding the calendar, and the arts are in full swing as the curtain is raised on yet another season.

The cultural offerings of Palm Beach County, admittedly once meager, have swelled to critical mass. Aware the audiences are sophisticated and arts-savvy, professional companies and internationally touring productions are making stops in this market, and we are richer for it. In fact, there is so much to navigate in our cultural landscape that we felt compelled to create a comprehensive package that will help you plan your cultural outings all season long.

Our “Cultural Preview 2014-2015,” beginning on page 65 and spanning 15 pages, is a highly detailed and well-curated guide that includes must-see shows and hot tickets in the disciplines of music, dance, theater and visual arts. From the muchanticipated world premiere of Enemies: A Love Story by the Palm Beach Opera to the high-flying acrobatics of Pippin, coming in April to the Kravis, this year’s productions and exhibitions promise to be as stimulating as they will be entertaining.

Dig in to our Cultural Preview and turn to our handy pullout “Art, Entertainment and Culture Guide” (page 145) for all the must-know details.

I also invite you to learn more about one of the pioneers of Palm Beach County’s cultural landscape. The indefatigable Lou Tyrrell, whose career in theater has spanned four decades, has made a priceless contribution to the local stage. Though he is often behind the scenes doing what he does best, Lou deserves to be applauded for giving us the gift of thought-provoking theater. As he says, “You want to tell stories that reveal, that surprise, that can make you think in a different way about the world.”

Find out how he has done that in “Center Stage,” on page 82.

Our cultural content does not end here. Follow @pbillustrated and all our editors on Twitter and Instagram for reports about and reviews of the area’s hottest happenings. And for exclusive interviews and the latest news, check out Curtain Call, our arts blog, on palmbeachillustrated.com.

Enjoy the issue—and the season ahead.

A brightly decorated mannequin stands outside a warehouse in Artists Alley, the creative block of Delray Beach home to galleries, boutiques and studios. It’s a fitting preview of the cheerful, print-driven fashions Amanda Perna creates under the label House of Perna.

“I believe clothing is the best way to express yourself,” she says. “Whether good or bad, it’s how people judge you. When they see me, I want people to automatically be happy.”

It’s impossible not to be in a good mood in Perna’s studio and showroom just north of Atlantic Avenue, which stores her collections of women’s readyto-wear and couture designs.

Harbourside Place

New in North County Something major is happening in Jupiter. Palm Beach County’s quaint northern town is getting a dose of downtown with Harbourside Place, the much-buzzed-about waterfront lifestyle destination with tenants opening throughout the winter. Considered one of the largest commercial construction projects in the area, Harbourside brings a mix of boutiques, eateries (including a resto by Tiger Woods), galleries, offices and the four-star Wyndham Grand Jupiter. We’re looking forward to concerts in the outdoor amphitheater and arriving—in true Jupiter style—by boat, docking at Harbourside’s marina. (561-743-8724, harboursideplace.com)

By Katherine Lande

The Tiffany woman has a spring in her step. She makes her own rules.

How have the archives at Tiffany & Co. influenced your newest collections?

There are a number of diamond pieces that are inspired by sketches from the 1920s that I found in the Tiffany archives. The drawings showed diamonds set in a very sporty, clean way—very crisp and refined—that makes them feel immediately contemporary, and so it seemed like a natural fit for the mood of this collection.

What is your favorite way to wear the new Tiffany T collection?

There’s a wide range of scale in the collection, which allows people to put different pieces together in a way that really says something about their sensibility and personality. I find the most powerful statement you can make with these pieces is by playing with that, mixing it up, creating contrast and tension with size and shape. You have very delicate pieces that work well when they’re mixed together with big, sculptural cuffs and softer chains.

What’s one must-have item from the new collections that every woman should own?

I love the square bracelet in 18-karat gold. It’s not the largest piece in the collection, but it has great presence on its own while also working in well with any other pieces in the collection for a more textured, layered look.

How do you fuse the iconic history of Tiffany & Co. with the way a modern woman dresses today?

The Tiffany woman has a spring in her step. She makes her own rules and she doesn’t conform. Tiffany T is first and foremost modern and makes no apologies for that. It’s for the cool girl about town who’s well-informed and has a handle on what’s happening, what’s now. She’s clever and smart and is very certain of herself and her sensuality.

Where do you find your greatest inspirations?

I grew up all over the world and have immersed myself in music, art, film and theater along the way. I particularly love Asian art and ceramics. There’s a real sensitivity to form and a very pared down and clean aesthetic. ... And in New York, people have such great energy and curate their looks in a really interesting way.

Don’t Tell Freedom (That’s My Dog) That I Have Another “Best Friend” In Jupiter Medical Center.

Harold “Bud” Stambaugh is a retired Marine, and Freedom is his trained service dog and best friend. When Bud discovered he had lung cancer, he reached out to Dr. K. Adam Lee, one of the nation’s leading experts and pioneers in minimally-invasive robotic surgery for lung cancer, and the first lung surgeon in Florida to perform robotic-assisted thoracic surgery.

“I told Dr. Lee I needed somebody to not only cure my lung cancer, but to take me through the whole process.”

– Harold “Bud” Stambaugh & Freedom

Bud called Dawn Bitgood, ARNP, Oncology Care Specialist, and she walked him through the entire experience – from pre-op, to surgery and rehabilitation. Today, Bud is cancer-free and credits the entire Thoracic Surgery and Lung Program team at Jupiter Medical Center with saving his life. To learn more about our comprehensive Thoracic Surgery & Lung Program, call Dawn Bitgood at (561) 263-3604 or visit jupitermed.com/lung.

Over 80% Of Lung Cancers Have A Chance To Be Cured If Detected At An Early Stage.

CT Lung Screening Gives You That Chance. If you’re a smoker or former smoker, early detection of lung cancer is the key to preventing more serious problems later. Low-dose CT lung screening at Jupiter Medical Center gives you the ability to take that positive first step to safeguard your health. Based on the National Lung Screening Trial guidelines, recommendations are: • 55 to 74 years old • No personal history of cancer • Current or former heavy smokers • No signs or symptoms of lung disease • Less than 10 years since quitting The charge for the screening is $99. As with many screenings, most insurance companies do not cover this procedure. Please call (561) 263-4437 to schedule an appointment.

Desert Hideaway

With laser focus on privacy and service, Amangiri beckons as a peaceful haven to discreetly unplug

By Teri Evans

As a cool breeze ushers in daybreak, dramatic rock formations frame one of the most exclusive resorts in the American Southwest. Hidden on 600 acres in Canyon Point, Utah, Amangiri (amanresorts.com/ amangiri/home.aspx) sits at the end of a scenic, two-mile-long road that winds to a crescendo of anticipation.

Amangiri’s Desert Lounge, also available for private dining (Left), and the private terrace of a suite with resting mattresses and a fireplace.

The long approach is ultimately rewarding.

Entering the resort, narrow walkways mimic the feel of a slot canyon. The property blends in with the desert landscape, as to avoid competing for attention with the monumental nature that surrounds it.

Known for its unparalleled focus on privacy and service, Amangiri is a peaceful haven for those looking to discreetly unplug and explore nature’s rugged beauty. The property is

Guests enjoy magnificent views of the desert landscape, whether they’re in the step pool at Aman Spa (above left) or a sky lounge in one of the pool suites.

ideally located in the Four Corners (where Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico and Utah meet), a region that has a rich concentration of national parks and monuments.

Amangiri has only 34 suites, some featuring private pools and a sky terrace with an outdoor bed beckoning you to slumber beneath a sky full of stars. Each suite has a private courtyard entrance leading to a modern interior that includes an expansive combined bedroom and living area, writing desk and soaking tub with landscape views.

Amangiri is nirvana for high-spirited explorers. The resort can arrange a myriad of customized excursions, including scenic helicopter tours, private tours of nearby national parks, watersports activities and countless one-of-a-kind trail adventures. Two daily group hikes offer a taste of the property’s trail system, including a popular morning trek to Ulrike’s Cave that, along with a false mine shaft nearby, appeared in the 1996 film Broken Arrow, starring John Travolta.

After a day on the trails, the 25,000-squarefoot Aman Spa is the best way to get lost in pure indulgence. To truly decompress, the resort touts its Desert Dream experience, which combines a cranial-sacral massage (targeting the head, spinal column and sacrum) and flotation therapy to inspire a meditative state, then finishes with a relaxing aromatherapy massage. The facility also

Off the

beaten Path Amangiri offers countless private excursions for exploring canyon country and will custom-build an itinerary for all guests. Here, we highlight a handful of the most celebrated activities, on and off the property, to satisfy the interests of nearly every traveler.

Adventurous hikers … try the popular Hoodoo Via Ferrata guided hike that will take you high above the property’s Hoodoo Trail, offering stunning views of freestanding sandstone towers known as hoodoos. The most powerful part of the hike is crossing a 600-foot-deep gorge via the narrow 232-foot suspension bridge.

Water-sports enthusiasts … explore nearby Lake Powell (lakepowell.com), the second-largest man-made reservoir that stretches nearly 2,000 miles and straddles Utah and Arizona with breathtaking slot canyons along the way. Venture on your own or take Amangiri’s private tour and enjoy the picturesque scene by boat, kayak or stand-up paddleboard.

Archaeology buffs ... dig for dinosaur bones at real fossil excavation sites, guided by a paleontologist. The exclusive tour includes three hours of exploration, plus a lesson in dinosaur history at the Paleontology Center in nearby Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument.

Shutterbugs of all levels … must visit nearby Antelope Canyon, the most-photographed slot canyon in the American Southwest and just a half-hour drive off the property. The petrified sand dune on Navajo Nation offers a breathtaking spectrum of shapes and colors that change as shafts of light beam into the narrow pathways. There are several cash-only public tours available (navajotours.com), or skip the crowds and take the resort’s luxury private excursion, which also includes a visit to Rattlesnake and Owl slot canyons.

High-spirited explorers … take in a bird’s-eye view of the dramatic landscape in a hot-air balloon flight, which launches right from Amangiri. The spectacular scenery includes Lake Powell, Navajo Mountain, the Vermillion Cliffs and the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument.

Clockwise from top right: A hot-air balloon flight; Hoodoo Via Ferrata, a guided hike that includes crossing a narrow suspension bridge (below); a breathtaking view from inside nearby Antelope Canyon.

includes a yoga studio, expansive water pavilion and full-service gym.

Once you’ve roused up an appetite, Amangiri’s executive chef, Shon Foster, is eager to anticipate your every culinary whim in the restaurant’s open kitchen, featuring regional new American cuisine that also pays homage to the Asian roots of Aman resorts, Amangiri’s parent company. Do not miss the mouthwatering dish simply titled “mushroom,” a delicious array of wood-fired foraged mushrooms, enveloped in rosemary espresso cheddar and herbs, and topped with a sunnyside up hen egg.

The dining experience is often interactive.

At harvest time, guests are encouraged to pick fruit from the plum, apple and almond trees that dot the pathways to the suites. The pastry chef will cheerfully prepare a dessert with your bounty.

Aman Spa at Amangiri spans 25,000 square feet with five luxurious walnut-lined, candlelit treatment rooms (one double, four single) and serene landscape views.

Amangiri’s restaurant offers panoramic views of surrounding plateaus and the swimming pool, which wraps around a rock escarpment.

The dining room offers sweeping views of the desert landscape, including the main swimming pool, which wraps around an enormous rock escarpment within a sunken courtyard.

When returning to your suite, open the glass doors to the terrace, take in the sweeping views and marvel in the silence. It is so quiet here, you can hear your breath above the flickering flames from the private fireplace. Now that’s relaxation. «

The new Four Seasons Resort Orlando ups the ante on Disney magic

By Daphne Nikolopoulos

The lobby chandelier (above) was inspired by the Disney fireworks, seen nightly from park-view rooms (below).

Think mouse ears and luxury don’t go together? The newly opened Four Seasons Resort Orlando will convince you otherwise.

Situated within Walt Disney World Resort at Golden Oak, Disney’s game-changing residential community with homes priced upward of $1.8 million, the 26.5acre, 17-story Four Seasons may be Orlando-sized, but it is so rich in detail that it feels more like an intimate resort.

Obviously, it is nirvana for families. A five-acre Explorer Island is a theme park in itself with a lazy river navigated by inner tube, a splash zone with various water features and zero-entry pool, two water slides and a kids’ activity center with a super-cool “erupting” volcano. It’s guaranteed to keep kids entertained the entire day. The best part: You only need go downstairs to access it.

The fun continues inside. The resort’s InRoom Celebrations team can deck out guest rooms and suites with themed decor and favors for the youngsters. You might appreciate the high-thread-count sheets and the glass mosaic baths, but your little girl will adore the Presenting Your Royal Princess celebration, with a royal proclamation, a treasure box (pink, of

course), a letter from the Fairy Godmother and the requisite tiara and magic wand. Boys get their very own celebrations (did somebody say pirates?).

If you don’t want to wait in line for character breakfast at the Disney parks, plan to be at Four Seasons on a Thursday or Saturday for breakfast at the signature restaurant, Ravello. The Goofy and Pals breakfast buffet features the lovable goofball and his friends, Mickey and Minnie. Children get to spend real time with the characters and leave the restaurant with photos, autographs and other random treats.

It goes without saying the resort has a Disney Planning Center whose staff can structure a memorable, seamless park experience. Complimentary coach transportation to the Magic Kingdom is offered every 30 minutes, and every hour to the other Disney parks.

When the sun goes down, however, plan to be back at the resort to enjoy dinner at the stellar, Spanishthemed steak house Capa, perched on the seventeenth floor with a panoramic view of the parks. From this vantage point (or from your park-view room), you can enjoy a killer view of the nightly fireworks at the Magic Kingdom, Epcot and Hollywood Studios without having to crane your neck or fight for elbow room. Magic, indeed. (407-313-7777, fourseasons.com/orlando) «

With its latest S63 AMG, Mercedes-Benz has created the world’s most thrilling performance sedan. It can even drive itself.

By Howard Walker The shimmery chrome lettering on its prodigious rump brands this four-door projectile as S63.

But such abbreviated nomenclature sells this wicked Mercedes-Benz sedan short. This car is more worthy of the badge S63 ICBM, as in “Inter-Continental Ballistic Missile.”

This is a continent-crossing car. New York to L.A.? It wouldn’t break a sweat. Paris to Istanbul? Maybe a stop in Monaco for lunch.

Sydney to Perth? Be home in time to sizzle a shrimp on the barbie.

Mercedes-Benz claims it has an official top 58

speed of 186 mph. But given free rein, drivers surely have no problem seeing 200-plus on the speedo; this four-wheel-drive leviathan covers ground with such ease and in such eerie, stealthy silence that 150 mph feels like 50 mph.

The S63 also offers the benefit of being able to drive itself.

Drivers can take their hands off the wheel for 10 seconds, and the car’s Distronic Plus adaptive cruise control with steering assist and lane guidance capability will keep them perfectly centered in the lane. It will also lock onto the car in front and keep an inch-perfect

distance from it—even if it comes to a halt.

But sadly, after 10 seconds, the system hands back control; the fear of possible, and probable, mega-expensive legal claims keeps Mercedes from giving the system the green light.

So what gives the S63 such ballistic performance? That would be the AMG handbuilt, twin-turbocharged 5.5-liter V-8 boasting a mighty 577 horsepower and 664 pound-feet of torque. Peterbilt 18-wheelers have less mechanical muscle.

When mated to a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic, and channeling those ponies to

each of the four wheels, that huge V-8 can jet-propel the S63 from standstill to 60 mph in 3.9 seconds.

That’s an insane feat, especially considering this stretched-wheelbase sedan measures just more than 17 feet nose to tail and tips the scales at a whopping 4,400-plus pounds.

Make no mistake, this Merc’s off-the-line thrust is a match for anything Space Mountain, Universal Studios or Wet ’n Wild can provide.

It incites the same neck-jerking, teethclenching and eyeballs-to-the-back-of-thehead experiences. Just don’t hurl your hands in the air and squeal like a 12-year-old.

But the big Benz also pampers as proficiently as it propels. Take the car’s Road Surface Scan system. Using cameras in the front bumper, it detects bumps, dips or potholes in the road ahead and instantly adjusts the air suspension to deliver a magic carpet ride.

Then there is the cabin. There are oceanview Miami penthouses with less glitz, glam and gorgeousness than this. The S63 boasts door-to-door quilted Nappa leather—even on the dash—and sexy satin brushed metal with high-tech carbon fiber trim.

Palm Beach OPERA The Palm Beach Opera has been around for more than 50 years, but 2015 just might be its biggest year yet. In addition to presenting its second Opera at the Waterfront concert (December 13) and mounting two well-known operas with La Bohème (January 16-18) and The Daughter of the Regiment (March 20-22), the company will also produce the world premiere of Ben Moore’s Enemies, A Love Story (February 20-22).

The title may be familiar to some PBO patrons; it is based on the Isaac Bashevis Singer book of the same name, and, in 2013, PBO staged the still-inprogress work as part of its One Opera in One Hour series. “The audience loved it,” says PBO General Director Daniel Biaggi, who decided the time was right for the company to stage the full show.

Enemies represents a feat for both PBO and composer Moore. This is PBO’s first world premiere, and it is the first opera Moore has ever written.

“Music itself is drama,” says Moore, a professional composer and lifetime opera lover. “Whether I’m writing a song or even if it’s an instrumental piece, there’s always got to be this dramatic arc to what I do. Opera is just a lot more developed and complicated in many ways.”

The drama in Enemies, which Moore describes as a dark comedy, revolves around Herman Broder and takes place in 1948 Brooklyn. Broder is a Holocaust survivor who immigrates to America with his wife, Yadwiga, and then begins an The season closes with Donizetti’s The Daughter of the Regiment

Composer Ben Moore was drawn to the themes and musical potential in the Enemies plot.

affair with another woman. Widening this love triangle into a square, Herman is confronted by his first wife, whom he believed to have died in the war.

Moore was drawn to Enemies for a number of reasons.

His aunt is a Holocaust survivor, and immigration and the lives of refugees have frequently influenced his work. He also felt like the story allowed him to create the passionate, lyrical music he loves. “It has a lot of what I really wanted— not only the theme of the story but also the characters are very complex and rich, and it afforded a lot of opportunity for different kinds of music,” he says.

With the help of lyricist Nahma Sandrow, Moore created a sweeping English-language opera full of hummable melodies. “It’s very melodic, so it’s the opposite of what people associate with modern pieces,” Biaggi comments. Biaggi and his team are responsible for bringing the opera to life, which includes building costumes and an Allen Moyer-designed set. Moore will work with the singers throughout and plans to be in Palm Beach in the weeks leading up to the premiere.

When all’s sung and done, Moore hopes audience members leave with a sense of optimism. “At the end, they are going to feel uplifted,” he says. “They’ll walk away with the feeling that life is worth living and that there’s real hope for the future.”

The Palm Beach Symphony continues its longstanding tradition of performing classical music in some of Palm Beach County’s most beautiful venues.

The 2014-15 season includes concerts at the Society of the Four Arts (December 3), Palm Beach Atlantic University’s DeSantis Family Chapel (January 5), the Mar-a-Lago Club (January 28 and March 18) and the Episcopal Church of Bethesdaby-the-Sea (February 23). Artistic and Music Director Ramon Tebar will conduct programs featuring the greatest works the classical music canon has to offer and will demand a high level of excellence from his symphony. “The best concert is when you have an orchestra in which all of the musicians are engaged and committed and giving 150 percent,” he says.

“Regardless of the music, I think this is the most important thing.”

And, for the budding symphony enthusiast in the family, the Palm Beach Symphony will join with local dance organizations at the Kravis Center on November 12 for an educational performance of Camille Saint-Saën’s The Carnival of the Animals.

Late last month, Ballet Palm Beach kicked off its season with the legendary ballet Giselle, and the company will continue with a series of established and new works through April. Start the holiday season off right with The Nutcracker (November 28-30), and then attend Simple Symphony and Other Works (February 27-28). The company’s final performance is truly a grand finale; from April 10-11, Ballet Palm Beach dances Wonderland, a new and whimsical interpretation of Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland. (561-630-8235, balletpalmbeach.org)

The Escher String Quartet

Miami City Ballet

For the 2014-15 season in Palm Beach, Miami City Ballet is reinventing classics and presenting a world premiere. It begins with the romantic “Program I: Romeo and Juliet” (November 21-23), with John Cranko choreography set to a Sergei Prokofiev score. Following a run of The Nutcracker (December 27-30), the ballet dances “Program II: Hear the Dance” (January 23-25), which is anchored by Twyla Tharp’s mix of ballet and ballroom in Nine Sinatra Songs.

Afterward, the ballet performs Carmen, with choreography by Richard Alston, as part of “Program III: Passion and Grace,” from February 27 to March 1. The season concludes with a bang; “Program IV: Points of Departure” (March 27-29) includes the world premiere of a work by choreographer Justin Peck, who joined with visual artist Shepard Fairey to build a piece that explores the collision of movement, music, Patricia Delgado and Renan costume and set design. All Cardeiro in Romeo and performances will take place at Juliet the Kravis Center. (305-929-7010, miamicityballet.org)

Chamber music has become so synonymous with Palm Beach that it’s no surprise the Chamber Music Society of Palm Beach’s inaugural 2013-14 season was a staggering success. “It exceeded our expectations,” says Executive and Artistic Director Michael Finn.

The membership-only organization holds concerts in the intimate ballroom at the Mar-a-Lago Club. “The acoustics in that room are just brilliant,” Finn says. “The artists play magnificently, but the room gives us a lot too.”

This year, the society will host six performances by stars of the classical music world. On our can’t-miss list: the Escher String Quartet, whom Finn describes as “the world’s most up-and-coming quartet,” on December 4, followed by a Metropolitan Opera trio of soprano Susanna Phillips, French horn player Julie Landsman and pianist Brian Zeger on January 6.

Bluegrass duo Dailey & Vincent

Symphonia, Boca Raton The 2014-15 season marks the tenth anniversary for the Symphonia, Boca Raton, and it is celebrating with four connoisseur concerts at the Roberts Theater at St. Andrew’s School in Boca Raton.

Guest Conductor David Kim, of the Philadelphia Orchestra, kicks off the series December 21 with a program by Correlli, Bach and Vivaldi and featuring violin soloist Mei Mei Luo. Music by such greats as Strauss, Mozart, Beethoven, Haydn and Bizet follows January 11, February 22 and April 12 and will be led by guest conductors Gerard Schwarz, Alexander Platt and James Judd, respectively.

Society of the Four Arts The Society of the Four Arts always packs its season with stunning symphonic and chamber concerts, and this year is no exception. We’re looking forward to the American Chamber Players (January 11), the Rastrelli Cello Quartet (January 18), the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center (January 25) and the Minetti Quartet (March 15). For something totally different—and we mean different—check out the bluegrass styling of Dailey & Vincent (April 12). Formed in 2007 and having worked with such legends as Doyle Lawson and Ricky Skaggs, Dailey & Vincent are widely regarded as one of the best bluegrass bands in the country.

The Minetti Quartet

Michael Feinstein When it comes to the Kravis Center, this is certainly the year of premieres. In addition to hosting Palm Beach Opera’s Enemies, A Love Story, the Kravis is launching the new concert series Michael Feinstein Conducts the Kravis Center Pops Orchestra. The concerts celebrate the Great American Songbook with three programs personally selected by Feinstein and featuring music from MGM movies and by the great Gershwins, among others. PBI spoke with Feinstein about the American music he holds so dear. (561-832-7469, kravis.org) PBI: Why do you think it’s important to perform works by American composers?

Feinstein: It’s generally accepted that what we now call the Great American Songbook is considered to be the greatest musical achievement that our country has produced. The songs by the Gershwins, Duke Ellington, Irving Berlin, Cole Porter, Fats Waller, these writers created a unique sound that has represented us as a nation around the world for 100 years. And this music is special in that it captures the

&

American experience in a way that is alive and breathing.

You once worked for Ira Gershwin. How did that experience affect the way you interpret his music?

I would not have a career performing Gershwin had it not been for the support and influence of Ira. Ira was 80 years old when I met him, and I was 20. And, even though I knew and loved Gershwin songs—uncharacteristically for a person of my generation in that time—I really learned the depth of interpretation that was possible through Ira’s gentle and loving coaching.

What about this genre really grabs you?

It was an emotional response to the songs from a very early age. I was not consciously eschewing the contemporary music; it’s just that I listened to what appealed to my heart. Even when I was 6 or 7 years old, I preferred the harmonic palette of older songs and the strong melody in lieu of the contemporary music that I heard on the radio; it simply did not hold the same appeal.

It was and is an emotional response.

Flagler Museum Music Series

Flagler Museum

The Calidore String Quartet

At the Flagler Museum Music Series, guests can hear chamber music as Henry Flagler (probably) did: in the acoustically awesome surroundings of Whitehall and followed by a glass of Champagne.

Each of this year’s five performances will feature music composed before 1930 performed by today’s top chamber groups, many of whom hail from the United States. The Parker Quartet (January 6) is based in Boston, but the group spent five years performing in Minnesota as the quartet-in-residence for the Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra, the first-ever artists-in-residence with Minnesota Public Radio and visiting artists at the University of Minnesota. The Aspen String Trio (January 20) is dedicated to the place from which it takes its name and has a longtime relationship with the Aspen Music Festival. Formed in Los Angeles in 2010, the Calidore String Quartet (February 3) is the youngest in the series but has already accumulated international praise, and its members are committed to a mission of music education. The Fine Arts Quartet (February 17), on the other hand, was founded in Chicago in 1946 and carries an impressive history of global performances and awards.

The series closes with the European Auryn Quartet (March 3), which has not changed members since its formation 30 years ago. (561-655-2833, flaglermuseum.us)

“ Sebastian Kim

What you see at the Norton has a very strong Norton voice.

Teen Vogue, January 2011, Sebastian Kim

Founded in 1941, the Norton Museum of Art, through perspicacious programming and engaging initiatives, has found its way into the nucleus of the Palm Beach County cultural scene. “We’re a foundation organization in the life of our county,” comments Hope Alswang, the museum’s executive director and CEO. “We want the museum to be as accessible, engaging and friendly as it possibly can be to every imaginable part of our demographic.”

Alswang joined the Norton in 2010 and has seen it develop a true sense of self. At once mindful of national and international art trends but also able to stake its own claim in the art world, the museum has made a shift towards creating many of its exhibitions in house. “We are really committed to making our own product,” Alswang says. “We will always rent exhibitions, but now we have a bunch of very talented curators making a lot of the content, so that what you see at the Norton has a very strong Norton voice.”

The 2014-15 season reflects this blend of rented and curated. The year kicked off in September with a new lobby installation by artist Terry Haggerty. This is the fourth site-specific artwork created for the museum’s lobby and was inspired by the building’s unique dimensions. Other recurring, Norton-curated endeavors include “The Rudin Prize for Emerging Photographers” (on display through January 11) and the “Recognition of Art by Women (RAW)” series, which this year highlights the work of sculptor Klara Kristalova (December 2 to March 29).

These in-house shows are complemented by a handful of rented exhibitions. From November 20 to February 15, the Norton hosts “Coming into Fashion: A Century of Photography at Condé Nast,” which constitutes 72

Visitors will view how fashion photography has changed over the past 100 years, starting with the work of pioneer photographer Baron Adolph de Meyer and progressing through other greats, including Irving Penn and Helmut Newton.

Then, from December 23 to April 5, the Norton will travel to the United Kingdom with “Pastures Green: The British Passion for Landscape.” On loan from the National Museum Wales, this exhibition features 65 works painted between 1650 and 2000 and focuses on the evolution of British landscape art as interpreted through genres such as Romanticism, Impressionism and Modernism.

The theme of landscape continues into “Imaging Eden: Photographers Discover the Everglades,” on display March 19 to June 24. For this show, the Norton asked four international photographers to visit the Everglades and capture their unique responses and impressions.

“They’re kind of arriving as anthropologists and experiencing it through the lens of their camera,” Alswang explains. “That’s really, for me, going to be one of the very interesting outcomes because you just never know what an artist is going to respond to.”

Another large, in-house exhibition, “Triumph of Love,” runs from Februticket HOT ary 8 to May 3 and highlights the art collection of a Palm ticket Beach County resident. Beth Rudin DeWoody began Enter to win collecting early in life and now owns in excess of 10,000 four free passes works of art, according to Alswang.

These exhibitions are a mere sampling of the programming the Norton has on tap for 2014-15—and there truly is something for everyone. Do you love European art?

During the 2014-15 season, the Flagler Museum will mount two very different yet equally delightful exhibitions. First off, “Kiss of the Oceans: The Meeting of the Atlantic and the Pacific” is on display through January 4. Curated in honor of the hundredth anniversary of the opening of the Panama Canal, the exhibit shares the remarkable story behind the canal’s construction and historical significance through relics, photos and documents. Afterward, the Flagler shows “Bouguereau’s Fancies: Allegorical and Mythological Works by the French Master” from January 27 to April 19. Whereas “Kiss of the Oceans” is a historical reflection made up of a variety of mediums, “Bouguereau’s Fancies” looks at the works and evolution of one artist through his own paintings and drawings—including different variations of the same work—as well as contemporary reproductions of his most famous pieces.

Vero Beach Museum of Art The Vero Beach Museum of Art continues to dazzle with exhibits that comprise innovative works, particularly when it comes to photography and sculpture. For nature buffs, the museum hosts an environmental photography show from January 24 to May 24. This collection illustrates themes such as climate change, industrial pollution and endangered wildlife as interpreted by artists like James Balog and Brooke Singer. From two dimensional to three dimensional, “Embracing Space and Color: Art On and Off the Wall” features works that are, like the late artist Robert Rauschenberg described, “a collaboration of materials.” On display February 20 to June 7, the exhibit redefines art by including works that marry traditional mediums, like painting and sculpture, with nontraditional materials, like textiles and found objects. Works by artists including Devorah Sperber and Ralph Helmick will hang on the walls and drape from the ceiling—so be sure to watch your head. (772-231-0707, verobeachmuseum.org)

This year, the Boca Raton Museum of Art augments its serene sculpture garden and permanent collections with special exhibitions covering an array of mediums. This month, it welcomes two seemingly similar shows with Elliott Erwitt’s photography and “Bryan Drury: Terrestrial Visions”; while the former is a collection of black-and-white photographs, the latter features highly realistic paintings that are so detailed you’d swear they’re photographs. Our top picks from the Boca Raton Museum of Art arrive in January. “Izhar Patkin: The Wandering Veil” showcases mural-sized paintings by the talented Israeliborn artist, who explores political and personal themes in a haunting manner. This show is coupled with “Surrealism and Magic,” which delves into the relationship between surrealist artists, including Dali, Duchamp and Ernst, and their relationships with magic. In addition to artworks, the exhibit will include rare books, music and films. (561392-2500, bocamuseum.org)

In addition to a season packed with cultural programs and events, the Society of the Four Arts hosts two all-new, world-class art exhibitions in its Esther B. O’Keeffe Gallery. Francophiles will adore “Toulouse-Lautrec and La Vie Moderne: Paris 1880-1910,” on display December 6 to January 11.

This unique exhibit takes a varied view of the Parisian art scene at the turn of the twentieth century, with Henri Toulouse-Lautrec’s work and style as a jumping-off point. The roughly 200 showcased works include paintings, watercolors and drawings as well as rare theater programs and other illustrations and memorabilia from cafes, cabarets and circuses.

From the streets of Paris to the landscapes of Maine, the society follows “La Vie Moderne” with “American Treasures from the Farnsworth Art Museum,” on display January 24 to March 29. Founded in 1948, the Farnsworth Art Museum has curated a permanent collection of works that depict the daily lives of those who live, work and create in Maine. This exhibition will include more than 50 works from such artists as Rockwell Kent and Fitz Henry Lane, plus Andrew, Jamie and N.C. Wyeth. (561-655-7226, fourarts.org) The Teamster, George Bellows

Like the Flagler Museum, the Historical Society of Palm Beach County preserves the area’s unique history through exhibitions and community-minded programming. And, for any history lovers, the Robert and Pat Johnson Palm Beach County History Museum’s two permanent galleries alone are worth the trip to the historic 1916 courthouse in downtown West Palm Beach. Divided into two themes—places and people—these galleries tell the story of Palm Beach County through the people who helped form it as well as the land they shaped and made their own.

In addition, the museum hosts a seasonlong history exhibit in its rotating gallery space, and the 2014-15 special exhibition takes a look at everyday heroes. “Courage Under Fire: 120 Years of Fire Rescue,” on display through June 27, uses archival images, relics, contemporary gear, videos and historical data to tell the story of the West Palm Beach Fire Department. Known originally as the Flagler Alerts, the department has fought fires (including two at The Break-

ers) and readied the city and county for the threat of fires throughout its 120-year history.

Despite the space limitations of the gallery, the society succeeds in bringing the history of this organization to life. “We had two goals with this exhibit: to detail 120 years of history in a very small space … and to demonstrate the need for firefighters today,” explains Benjamen Salata, curator of collections.

Designed for children as young as 9, “Courage Under Fire” blends history with the profession’s contemporary thrills and advancements to create a fun, educational and visually significant exhibition. (561-832-4164, historicalsocietypbc.org)

In Palm Beach County’s cultural landscape, the Morikami Museum and Japanese Gardens stands apart for its commitment to sharing the beauty and intrigue of Japan with county residents.

Its two major exhibitions for the season highlight Japanese design and artistry as seen in furniture and through the lens of one of the country’s most famous female artists. “Japanese Design for the Senses: Beauty, Form and Function” is on display through January 18 and is made up of three showcases that cover such mediums as lacquerware boxes, studio furniture and traditional Japanese furniture. Then, from February 10 to May 24, attend “Poetry in Clay: Paintings, Calligraphy and Ceramics by Otagaki Rengetsu.” A nineteenth-century Buddhist nun, Rengetsu worked with potters and other artists to create beautiful and functional artworks. This collection features more than 120 pieces, including ceramics, fans and tea ceremony accouterments.

There’s more to come this summer. From June 16 to September 13, the museum will host two exhibits perfect for summer-stunned students.

“The Morikami Menagerie: Creatures in Japanese Art” and “Japan’s Robot Kingdom: Mecha and Androids and Cyborgs, Oh My!” bridge the creatures of Japanese folklore and contemporary robotics as used in the sciences and seen in science fiction. Mark these two exciting exhibitions on your calendar now. (561-495-0233, morikami.org) From left: Stepped Chest (Kaidan Dansu) from the Edo Period; Fire Pot (Hiire), Otagaki Rengetsu

Located in downtown Lake Worth, the Cultural Council of Palm Beach County strives to celebrate and share art created in and around Palm Beach County. In addition to several solo shows by area artists, the council will also host a handful of special exhibits, beginning with “Monochrome,” on display through December 6. Color is a key component to any artwork, but the task of creating in a single color can be at once daunting and liberating; this exhibit looks at how 14 local artists attack this monochromatic challenge in their own medium. Then, for something totally different, view “Paws and Claws: Animals in Art” from December 19 to February 21. Animals are a common theme in paintings, and pets are a big part of life in Palm Beach County, so check out how eight residents interpret the theme of animals through their unique aesthetics. Finally, from March 6 to May 2, the council displays “Sculpture Selections from the Studio,” which features the work of three sculptors who worked with only organic materials.

Ann Weaver Norton was onto something when she decided to imbue her home’s extravagant landscape with her stunning sculptures. Today, the Ann Norton Sculpture Gardens is the permanent home for some of Norton’s most impressive and monumental sculptures, but it also hosts special exhibitions from a variety of artists throughout the season. From November 5 to March 1, ANSG welcomes the work of Polish artist Jerzy Kedziora in “Natural Balance.” Norton’s larger-than-life, stationary sculptures will be augmented

by Kedziora’s life-size, suspended sculptures scattered throughout the property. His work, which celebrates the medium’s kinetic potential, will evolve throughout the show’s run.

The other major exhibitions taking place at ANSG this year celebrate the work of two American artists. “Patricia Nix: An Icon of American Art,” on display December 23 to February 8, features Nix’s playful paintings and drawings and explores the style of this sought-after artist. “Florida En Plein Air” follows from February 18 to March 29 and showcases the work of Mary Page Evans, well known for her nudes, seascapes and gardens.

Palm Beach Dramaworks

The Maltz Jupiter Theatre is producing a season full of tried-andtrue classics from the theater canon, combining plays and musicals for a textured year. One simply cannot go wrong with either of the shows on stage in 2014—The Foreigner (October 26 to November 9) and Fiddler on the Roof (December 2-21). Though quite different in content, both are cornerstones of the repertory theater circuit and both should allow the Maltz to stretch its creative wings. The Wiz, the soulful interpretation of The Wizard of Oz, will please children and parents alike from January 13 to February 1. However, hire a babysitter before attending Glengarry Glen Ross (February 8-22), David Mamet’s tour de force, Pulitzer Prize-winning play about cutthroat businessmen.

The 2014-15 season at Arts Garage is all about women—playwrights, that is. Under the theme of “A Celebration of Women’s Voices,” Arts Garage’s main-stage theater season hosts three works by female playwrights, all of which explore universal themes while highlighting the prowess of female writers and spotlighting new works.

“This is part of a national conversation that’s very important right now that transcends theater,” explains Artistic Director Lou Tyrrell. “It’s a joy to be a part of that conversation and to be a tiny part of the solution.”

Beginning November 7, Arts Garage presents The How and the Why, by Sarah Treem, a writer and producer for such television shows as House of Cards and In Treatment. A two-hander, this play follows two female scientists as they meet and subsequently clash over opposing views before discovering their common history.

From Left to Right: Playwrights Sarah Treem, Allison Gregory and Lauren Gunderson

Then, from January 16 to February 8, catch Lauren Gunderson’s I and You. Also a two-person play, I and You explores the relationship between two opposite high school students. Still a developing playwright, Gunderson received the Steinberg New Play Award from the American Theatre Critics Association in 2014 for this production.

The season closes with the world premiere of Allison Gregory’s Uncertain Terms, March 6-29. Following their divorce, Dani and Harry’s house is put on the market. There’s just one problem—Harry won’t leave. During production, Gregory will join Arts Garage as an artist in residence, further buttressing the season’s goal of celebrating and showcasing American female playwrights.

Q&A with The Book of Mormon’s Denèe Benton

Production History: The Book of Mormon comes from the hilariously twisted minds of Trey Parker and Matt Stone, co-creators of the infamous cartoon series South Park. Together with Robert Lopez (of Avenue Q and Frozen fame), Parker and Stone wrote this satire of the Mormon faith, which arrived on Broadway in March 2011 and earned a slew of Tony Awards, including Best Musical and Best Original Score. Synopsis: Two young Mormons, Elder Price and Elder Cunningham, go on a missionary trip to Uganda.

Their naïve assumptions are quickly shattered when they come face-to-face with the country’s turmoil. The missionaries meet village chief Mafala Hatimbi and his daughter, Nabulungi, and continue in their efforts to spread the gospel of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Notable Songs: “Hasa Diga Eebowai” (a satire of The Lion King’s “Hakuna Matata”), “Turn It Off” Why You Should See It: The Book of Mormon has been the talk of Broadway for years, and you’ll want in on that conversation.

PBI chats with Denèe Benton, who plays Nabulungi in the touring cast of The Book of Mormon.

How would you describe the musical style of the show? They basically pay homage to many different musicals. [You have] your traditional, big, jazzy musical theater with some tap numbers and you’ve also got some great poprock—it kind of gives you the best of everything.

What’s your favorite number to perform? Probably “Baptize Me.” It is a duet I get to sing with Elder Cunningham, and it’s so much fun and so clever and witty and full of so many double entendres, but it’s also so sweet and innocent.

Why do you think the show has been so popular with audiences?

It’s just not like anything that has ever dared to be written or produced before. It’s so honest and truthful, [and] the humor is so cutting edge and hysterical and makes your jaw drop, but it also has so much heart at the same time.

9/26/14 2:02 PM

By Mary Murray Photography by Rose E. Martin It’s August in South Florida, and, unlike many of its cultural colleagues, Arts Garage in Delray Beach is open and active. Lou Tyrrell, artistic director of the venue’s theater program, greets me with an extended wrist—an electric green watch offers a glimpse of his vibrant personality. Today, I will be around for every tick of that watch, following Tyrrell from Arts Garage to a rehearsal in Pompano Beach and back for a tech run-through and performance in the evening. It is, more or less, a typical day for this actor-cum-director.

Tyrrell ushers me past students enjoying the final day of summer camp. The campers range in age from 6 to 14 and represent one facet of Arts Garage’s educational outreach programs.

“The idea always is, whether it’s easy times or challenging times for thought-provoking theater, you’ve got to expose young people to it if you hope to have the next generation take it and make it their own,” Tyrrell says.

In a career spanning four decades, a handful of countries and many Florida prisons—more on that later—two things have remained constant: Tyrrell’s commitment to developing new works and fostering an early love of the stage.

Growing up in New York City, Tyrrell was exposed to all kinds of theater. He began acting, however, as a way to meet girls. As one of four boys and a student at an allmale school, he discovered one way to interact with the opposite sex was by participating in a joint theater program between the boys’ and girls’ schools. Following a production of Noël Coward’s Blithe Spirit, Tyrrell decided theater—“both in terms of the social benefits but also in terms of the culture and the performance of it—it all was a good fit for me.”

“

You want to tell stories that can make you think in a different way about the world. You’re looking for plays that will rearrange an audience’s DNA.”

He pursued theater at home and abroad, enrolling at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama in London and then at L’École Internationale de Théâtre Jacques Lecoq in Paris. In 1974, he joined the Florida Studio Theatre in Sarasota. The burgeoning company had no actual theater, focusing instead on an outreach program that visited elementary schools—and prisons.

“We took Endgame by Samuel Beckett into prisons in the afternoon,” Tyrrell recalls. “[His] plays are about desolation, end of the world, endof-life issues, captivity—we were telling [the inmates’] stories through these plays.”

As a young actor, Tyrrell was touched by the similarities he saw between the responses of the children he taught in the morning and the prisoners he visited in the afternoon.

“When you see the innocence in the reaction of a troubled inmate, a reaction to the pure experience of living in the moment and playing a theater game much as a child would—that was the fabulous thing that was completely the same between a 6-year-old and a 26-year-old. And

it really laid the foundation for what I wanted to do with my life in the theater and how to use theater in a way that could contribute to lives.”

Tyrrell continued this educational outreach throughout Florida, eventually landing in Palm Beach County, where he established a program called the Learning Stage. This humble initiative evolved into Florida Stage, the theater company Tyrrell ran for 24 years.

The idea was simple: Establish a professional company devoted to new works. He rented a lecture hall space with 123 seats at the Duncan Theatre in Lake Worth. Despite the modest setting, interest in the theater group spread.

“In our first year, we had 400 subscribers in a 123-seat theater. The next year was 1,600 subscribers. The third year was 2,300 subscribers— and 4,000 subscribers after just four years of doing it,” Tyrell says.

Florida Stage outgrew its home and moved into a theater in the Plaza Del Mar in Manalapan, now the Plaza Theatre. With 250 seats surrounding a three-quarter thrust stage, Tyrrell was able to mount the thoughtprovoking new works that had become his professional passion.

082-LOU TYRELL-1114.indd 84

9/26/14 2:09 PM

Tyrrell, himself a former actor, allows his actors to make their own discoveries. Here, he works with the cast of Judge Jackie Justice.

“It’s important to do the great plays from our canon … but that wasn’t my mission,” he says. “The contribution I could make was my passion for helping to develop the work, helping to develop and launch careers for playwrights.”

From 1987 to 2011, Florida Stage produced around 150 new works from playwrights such as Israel Horovitz, Deborah Zoe Laufer and Chris Demos-Brown. Of those 150 productions, Tyrrell directed 60. “I had discovered the absolute joy of directing, working with actors and the talented people who bring plays to life and to help them, in any small way I could, discover their best artist in any given role,” he says.

Even today, at 64, Tyrrell adores directing. After Florida Stage closed in 2011, he was offered the artistic director position at the infant organization Arts Garage. For a seasoned professional like Tyrrell, Arts Garage represented a new challenge— navigating a theater company through the murky waters of the twenty-first century cultural landscape.

“At Arts Garage, I walked into a space that was the embodiment of the new model. I knew that we were going to have to rebuild an audience for thought-provoking new work,” he says.

One way he’s building this audience is through Arts Garage’s Summer Tune-Up series, which presents new musicals in a concert setting. On this muggy August afternoon, Tyrrell is working with five performers and music director Caryl Fantel on Judge Jackie Justice, a courtroom reality show spoof. Though the content runs a bit shallow for Tyrrell—he prefers issue-based plays—the production carries its own set of challenges, namely the time constraint of producing a show in three days. Tyrrell isn’t worried. Like any good captain, he steers the ship while allowing others to do what they do best.

“I’ve worked with Lou on almost all of the Tune-Up pieces, and he is

082-LOU TYRELL-1114.indd 85

wonderfully collaborative and trusting,” Fantel says.

Tyrrell’s cast agrees: “Lou is what we call an actor’s director,” explains actor Nick Duckart. “He lets the actors find things organically.

He’s on the side of the actor to make the job easier for us to tell the best story for the audience.”

Actress Lindsey Corey adds, “That trust that you get from a director is kind of rare. He comes in knowing what he wants from you and has a clear vision but is willing to go on that journey with you.”

After rehearsal, Tyrrell helps load music stands into his Prius in the middle of a rainstorm. It’s one task of many he tackles as artistic director. Given Arts Garage’s spare staff, he covers jobs like director, general manager, union liaison and even intern, fetching actors snacks between scenes. He doesn’t mind—in fact, he enjoys it.

“It’s funny because it’s reverting,” he says. “As a young director, I had to do everything. Then, as Florida Stage grew and became successful, we had people in all those different roles. But, it is such a joy to have to do it all again because it’s reconnecting me with the exhilaration that was at the front end of my life and my career.”

The rain subsides and we head back to Arts Garage for the final rehearsal of Judge Jackie Justice—the first on stage and with lights and sound.

Tyrrell is unfailingly upbeat. His friend and colleague Amy Pasquantonio, director of operations and administration of Arts Garage’s parent organization, Creative City Collaborative, compares Tyrrell to the Energizer Bunny. “He’s a presence,” she says. “He walks in, and it’s like: Bam!” This evening, however, he is more shhh than bam!, more thoughtful than bombastic. He weaves through tables, observing his actors from different vantage points. I can see him putting himself in the headspace of his audience and am reminded of something he said earlier: “You want to tell stories that reveal, that surprise, that can make you think in a different way about the world. You’re looking for plays that will rearrange an audience’s DNA.” Following a successful one-night-only performance, Tyrrell returns to his home in Lake Worth and his wife of 35 years, Kathleen Holmes.

As with every day in his life, he retires a changed man, his DNA altered by another day at the theater. « palmbeachillustrated.com | NOVEMBER 2014

Male Rules

Men, this is your runway moment. We culled through men’s collections to bring you the season’s four hottest trends—and ways to rock them.

1. PATTERNED—Patterns are totally back: polka dots, vertical stripes, zigzags; wear them head-to-toe, like in a suit, or don’t be afraid to mix them.

2. WHITE IS THE NEW BLACK— White is by far the biggest color statement next summer season. From suits and parkas to slouchy trousers ... all look better in white.

3. SNEAKERS­­—Sneakers are no longer just for the gym; they are a fashion must, with new takes on the men's classic—like the Hood by Air—elevating them to a chic and super-cool level.

4. GRAPHIC TEES­—Graphic tees are an easy way of making a statement with a bold pattern, saying or symbol.

5. BOLD COLOR COMBINATIONS—When it comes to colors for spring, think confident and bright, combining bright hues in an unexpected way ... it works!

GET INSPIRED: Look to famed style icons and current stylesetters for inspiration on how you want to look and dress.

THE ESSENTIALS: Stock up on key pieces every man should have in his wardrobe so you’re never out of style. Just what should be in your closet? View The Essentials Guide on mrporter.com.

UPDATE OFTEN: Smaller on-trend purchases (like a tie or pocket square in a hip print) made throughout the year can help keep your everyday look fresh.

KEEP IT CLASSIC: When in doubt, stick to the basics and subtly try a new trend with an accessory or smaller item.

TAKE A RISK: Don’t be afraid to have personality with your wardrobe. Orson Welles said it best: “Style is knowing who you are, what you want to say and not giving a damn.”

T

he seventeenth-century Benedictine monk Dom Pierre Pérignon described it best when he said quaffing Champagne was like “drinking stars.”

Right now, we are imbibing a galaxy of stars at the very place where he’s credited with discovering how to turn grapes into effervescent champers.

Welcome to Hautvillers in the Champagne region of France, just up the hill from Épernay, ground zero for all things champenoise.

I blame our presence here on the bubbles. Almost five years ago to the day, while polishing off a bottle of Taittinger on the dock outside our Florida home, my wife and I made a life-changing decision: to embark on a new adventure living on a boat in Europe.

Why explore the continent by boat? There’s something magical about seeing towns, cities or the countryside from the water. And when traveling at six or seven miles an hour, you have ample time to take in the view.

Two years ago in Holland, we found a gorgeous 57-foot-long Dutch steel trawler-style yacht owned by Christian Swarovski, a member of the Swarovski crystal family. Alas, there was no crystal chandelier hanging in the wheelhouse, but she was essentially a floating luxury apartment with two bedrooms, two baths and, as expected, impeccable taste for fixtures and fittings.

The boat was designed to not only cross oceans but also squeeze under the seriously low bridges of the French canal system. We christened her Nomade to reflect our future nomadic existence.

We moved aboard in the spring of 2013 and spent our first idyllic summer cruising the amazing labyrinth of canals, rivers and inland seas of Holland.

This year, the plan was to head south through Holland and into the North Sea. When the weather played nice, we’d cross the English Channel and ease along the River Thames into the center of London for my birthday.

Then it would be back into the Channel and hop along the French coast to the estuary of the River Seine in Normandy and down into the heart of Paris. From the City of Light, we’d cruise east along the River Marne into Champagne country with the aim of raising a glass to the Dom. Crossing the Channel was part apprehension, part abject terror. This was our first big open water passage—35 miles of the world’s busiest shipping lane, with tides that rose and fell 15-20 feet and patches of thick, pea-soup fog. We arrived unshaken but definitely stirred.

Cruising into the heart of London was an item off my bucket list. I moved to London in my early 20s and always loved seeing the Thames.

It was a dream realized to pass my own boat under the Tower Bridge— although, they didn’t raise it for us.

After a three-week stay at the famous St. Katharine Docks marina, cruising back across the Channel was a breeze. Following stopovers in Boulogne and Dieppe, we were tying our lines in the gorgeous harbor of Honfleur in Normandy.

There’s a reason why so many hotel barges cruise the River Seine from Honfleur into Paris: The scenery is just spectacular. From our floating apart

100-TRAVELOGUE-1114.indd 103

ment, we saw soaring chalk-white cliffs, dense forests and fabulous riverside towns like Les Andelys, where we hiked to the ruins of Château-Gaillard. Richard the Lionheart built the castle in 1197, and the view from the top along the snaking Seine Valley was worth every step of the steep ascent.

Entering Paris was a sensory overload. The city is more breathtaking from the river when you cruise past the Eiffel Tower under postcardperfect bridges, the Louvre on the port side and Notre Dame up ahead.

We moored up in a secret city marina, tucked below street level, right under the shadow of the Bastille and steps away from the Île de la Cité, the Marais and the Hôtel de Ville. palmbeachillustrated.com | NOVEMBER 2014 103

from the city of light, we’d cruise east along the river marne into champagne country with the aim of raising a glass to the dom.

Clockwise from top left: The River Marne links Paris with Épernay and the Champagne region; the colorful Sunday market at the Bastille in Paris; approaching Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris; the Nomade’s rear deck.

Opposite page, inset: Vines in Champagne, as far as the eye can see.

We then traveled east along the leafy, meandering Marne River. We glided past mile after mile of hillside vineyards growing the plump, succulent black Pinot Noir, Meunier and Chardonnay grapes used to produce Champagne.

Many of France’s smallest towns and villages will build floating docks in the rivers and canals—often only long enough to accommodate a single boat—to lure cruisers into their boulangeries and boucheries. One such stop was in the teeny village of Mary-Sur-Marne, where we tied up in front of the lovely Quai des Brumes restaurant and dined outside under the stars with local families, with not an English voice to be heard.

100-TRAVELOGUE-1114.indd 105

In Épernay, we strolled the Avenue de Champagne and toured the caves of the Mercier and Moët et Chandon houses. We hiked the hill to Hautvillers to pay our respects to Dom Pérignon. And we cracked a bottle of Taittinger brut on the Nomade’s flybridge in his honor.

Where to next? The plan is to keep heading south, on the narrow canals of Burgundy to the River Saône, on to Lyon, then take the mighty Rhône all the way to the Mediterranean.

And when we reach the Med, no doubt we’ll be popping the magnum of celebratory Dom Pérignon that’s chilling nicely in the Nomade’s cooler. Cheers, Dom. « palmbeachillustrated.com | NOVEMBER 2014 105

When an after-show treat is in order following a performance at Palm Beach Dramaworks, pop in next door to Paneterie, the French-inspired bakery and café that opened at the end of summer. A joint venture of Thierry Beaud and Reid Boren, who dreamed up Pistache French Bistro and PB Catch, the Clematis Street patisserie lures guests with the divine creations of Palm Beach pastry chef Patrick Lézé, known for his heavenly macarons and desserts like fruit tartlets, frambola (chocolate, ganache and raspberry) and lemon-meringue pastries (all shown). While brunch bites and sandwiches are served during daytime hours, Paneterie is open until 11 p.m. from Thursday through Saturday— most convenient for theatergoers exiting Dramaworks.

Senses that Affect Taste

to Pair with Turkey For wine lovers, reaching for that prized bottle of Cabernet is practically a reflex on special occasions, but Thanksgiving is tricky. Turkey is not beef: The meat is more delicate and calls for a wine with less tannin. To please the range of personalities and palates at your holiday table, consider these pairings.

The eatery advertises hand-cut fries, fresh cheese curds and hot gravy to produce “the best comfort food taste sensation on Earth.” (561-7662281, poutinedogcafe.com) —M.S.

How we taste is determined by more than just taste buds. In fact, each sense plays a role. 50 Ocean Chef Blake Malatesta proved this during “Assault on the Senses,” his five-course pairing dinner in which each plate enhanced—or tricked—a different sense. (next up November 13: “Olde World vs. New World”—reserve now for what the chef calls “the 12 best seats in the house.”) Here’s how three senses impact taste: 1. Sight: “We eat with our eyes first,” Malatesta says.

By looking at a dish or reading a menu description, “you perceive what you’re eating before you taste it,” he explains.

2. Sound: Hearing is an enhancing sense that builds expectation, the chef says: “You hear the popping of popcorn and get that anticipation.”

3. Smell: This receptor sense kick-starts taste buds, Malatesta says. “when you smell garlic, your response is to drink water,” he points out. (561-278-3364, 50ocean. com) —J.P.

Dinner and a Show

An evening at Café Centro starts out like any other: Meals and wine are ordered, and guests eat and talk above the noise of surrounding conversation and clinking silverware.

Suddenly, the room darkens. Colored lights swirl on the walls, and in walks a man in a sequined jacket holding a microphone and belting out an Italian song everyone in the restaurant seems to know the words to.

Ray Chang’s performance takes off from there. He plays a keyboard, walks around the intimate space, playfully flirts with guests and creates an energetic, familial atmosphere.

Chang has been entertaining at the Northwood Village restaurant for the past three years. He starts each performance with the same five tunes, then reads the audience to select from his repertoire of 300-500 songs, from rock ballads to Frank Sinatra and Louis Prima—all of which he learned “with no formal training whatsoever,” he says.

The staff members at Café Centro “give me carte-blanche to express myself,” he says, and Chang takes full advantage of it: He stands atop the bar, swings the lights and tosses napkins in the air. Using a cordless microphone allows him to continue singing as he dances with a patron just outside the restaurant—or even drive off (and return) in a stranger’s car, all for entertainment. Each night, he says, “is an experience of its own.”

Chang draws elbow-to-elbow crowds to Café Centro for his Thursday, Friday and Saturday shows—reserve your table as early as possible. (561-514-4070, cafecentrowpb.com) —J.P.

Chang performed at the Kravis Center last November.

Side Dish

When you sit down for the big

meal November 27, ask the closest family member to please pass what foodies are calling the new kale: cauliflower. Why is the vegetable a prime candidate for the next big food trend? consider its versatility:

• It can be broiled, mashed, cut into steaks and grilled, minced to serve

as a substitute for rice or even used to make a gluten-free pizza crust.

• Low in fat and carbs, it possesses high levels of fiber and Vitamin

C. Even better, it releases a compound called sulforaphane that may protect against cancer.

• A cup of steamed florets contains only 30 calories, leaving plenty

of leeway for butter and cheese.

Think you’re immune to its appeal? After blanching and chopping, toss it with ranch dressing, feta, kalamata olives and onions for a satisfying salad. And if you’re still in thrall to last year’s trends, throw in some diced bacon as well. —M.S.

InWith the New Time for that annual November celebration— not Turkey Day, the release of new wine

By Mark SPivak

Many wine drinkers regard the third Thursday in November as a major holiday.

On that day, amid much hype and public relations fanfare, the year’s Beaujolais Nouveau is released, sparking a worldwide race to see who can be the first to quaff it after 12:01 a.m. The French mark the occasion with festivals, fireworks and parties as well.

The concept of Nouveau is far from new, though, in Beaujolais and elsewhere. Vintners in the region traditionally made a special batch of new wine to commemorate the harvest, and the wine has enjoyed a vogue in the bistros of Lyon, but it rarely traveled outside the area. In France, harvest workers receive an allocation of two liters of wine per day, and the wine is invariably Nouveau. (You may pick grapes at Château Margaux, but that

doesn’t mean you’ll get two liters of Château Margaux.) And throughout Europe, many consumers do their wine shopping by taking a plastic container to the local cooperative and filling it with recently fermented wine.

In truth, consumption of new wine is more common than you might think.

France: There is a long list of vins de primeur, or wines allowed to be sold in the same year they are harvested. More than 50 appellations, or wine-producing regions, make white, red or rosé for local consumption. Like Beaujolais Nouveau, most of these wines are fresh and enticing, and are generally inexpensive. In the Languedoc, for example, the new wine is released about a month before Beaujolais Nouveau and is widely offered in restaurants and wine shops to celebrate the harvest.

Italy: Vino Novello is the Italian version of Beaujolais Nouveau, and there are many similarities. The wine is bright and exuberant, low in alcohol and released several weeks earlier than its French counterpart, on November 6. The vivid fruit flavors result from a fermentation technique called carbonic maceration. With this method, the berries are kept whole and crushed under their own weight in a sealed container filled with carbon dioxide, which is responsible for the wine’s freshness. In Beaujolais, 100 percent carbonic maceration is mandatory, while Italian Novellos customarily are at least 30 percent wine created with this technique.

Merlot is the most common variety used, although Teroldego (a grape often found in Trentino-Alto Adige) is popular as well. Vino

The Beaujolais region (top) releases Nouveau in November. Spanish makers like Campo Viejo produce Vino Joven, young wine not aged in oak barrels like others.

doubtedly the Dry Table Wine from Charles Shaw (aka “Two-Buck Chuck”), sold exclusively at Trader Joe’s. It’s a blend of Cabernet Franc, Zinfandel, Petite Sirah and Valdiguie, a French variety similar to Gamay, the grape of Beaujolais Nouveau. It may be inexpensive (inside of $4 at last glance), but like the French Nouveau, it has its place—and a following. «

Bodegas y Viñedos Artadi

Novello has never really gained a following in the United States, despite attempts to market it as an alternative to Beaujolais.

Spain: New wine is referred to as Joven, which translates as “young” and basically means wine that has seen little or no time in oak barrels. Joven may come from any recognized region but is most closely associated with Rioja—ironically, an area that made its reputation on oak aging. Joven may be released at any point after harvest until the spring of the following year and generally is best consumed within a one-year window.

It’s readily available in this country from wellknown producers such as Artadi and Campo Viejo and typically sells for less than $15.

United States: While Americans are fond of oak-aged wines, Nouveau is gaining ground. On December 6, the Fenn Valley Winery in Michigan will host its twenty-third annual Nouveau Festival. The featured wine is a dry red blend in the Nouveau tradition.

Spain’s Artadi also produces and bottles Vino Joven, which is best consumed within one year of release.

For this Singer Island condominium, Sean Rush of Sean Rush Atelier married Moroccan influences with an ocean view. “With a minimalistic yet global viewpoint, my vision was to create a modern Moroccan beach condo using organic materials and unique finds from my annual trips to Morocco,” Rush says.

“I wanted it to be embellished with exotic textiles but in a restrained color palette to celebrate the view of the ocean.” In the bedroom, Rush accented ceramic bleached wood plank tile detailing on the walls and floor with a lush carpet from ABC Carpet and Home. The bed is dressed in an antique Moroccan wedding blanket and vintage embroidered Moroccan pillows, all from Sean Rush Atelier. Rush created many of the custom details throughout the home, including the oil-on-canvas artwork, titled Sole, as well as the dyed velvet ikat pillows seen in the living room.

What makes sailfish Point such a sPecial club community?

Three significant factors combine to make Sailfish Point a special place. First, the location of the property—directly on the Atlantic Ocean, at the mouth of the St. Lucie Inlet and bounded to the west by the Indian River Lagoon—creates a tropical island unto itself. Second is the natural beauty and diverse wildlife that inhabits this 532-acre sea-island community. And third, perhaps the most special quality of all, is the unassuming, friendly atmosphere enjoyed by the residents.

What differentiates sailfish Point realty from other south florida real estate brokerages?

The second phase, to begin summer 2015 and be finished for the 2016 season, entails a complete renovation of the clubhouse areas and the spa facilities.

Head: Do not look down at your feet, but rather keep your head centered between your shoulders and focus your eyes toward the horizon, allowing your gaze to guide you.

Balance Arms: Pumping

Posture: Keep

your shoulders low and loose, and relax your back and torso into a naturally straight position. This running-tall pose will automatically place your hips into a proper alignment and offer ease of breathing.

your arms at your sides reduces the metabolic cost of running by aiding in balancing your moving body, according to a study in The Journal of Experimental Biology.

Legs: Running requires only a

slight knee lift in front of your body, but you must avoid shuffling. Aim for shorter strides over longer ones, as over striding can lead to injury.

When your stride is accurate, your feet will land directly under your body and align with your hips.

Feet: The foot-strike form is one of the most hotly debated aspects of running, with most runners either striking on their heels or forefeet. Above all, your foot should hit the ground lightly and leave the ground quickly, with the majority of the force propelling you forward felt in your calf muscles.

AND I RAN

As the weather crisps and the sunshine wanes, South Florida becomes the ideal location for running. Your form can have a great impact on running economy, or the measure of how much oxygen is needed to run at a particular pace. Though there’s no hard-and-fast scientific consensus regarding running form, keep these tips in mind to get the most out of your next run.

National Healthy Skin Month November is national healthy skin month and, in Palm Beach County, no one knows skin like Tammy Fender, owner of Tammy Fender Holistic Skin Care in West Palm Beach. Below, Fender shares some tips for achieving that healthy glow. (561-659-2229, tammyfender.com) PBI: What are the visual characteristics of healthy skin?

Fender: Healthy skin would have a glow, have a hydration level and just show a radiance.

What’s an ideal evening skin regimen?

A cleansing routine is really important at Tammy Fender the end of the day. It’s nice to do an exfoliation in the evening, just to scrub off those surface cells, and then do an infusion of a serum and an oil. Serums and oils penetrate deep into the tissue, so they help to promote an extra infusion of nutrient content.

What are the best types of facial oils?

I recommend a lot of oils that have the omegas and the essential fatty acids in them and high nutrient contents.

Organic rosehip seed is one of my favorite oils that has a high concentration of vitamin C and bioflavonoids, as

well as a really healthy spectrum of essential fatty acids. Another good oil for the skin is avocado oil because avocado is a multivitamin. It’s very rich in all of the essential vitamins, and it helps to rehydrate and rebalance the skin.

What are the skin benefits to living in Florida?

The humidity has a high moisture content, so when you have moisture on the surface of the skin, it helps to create that plumpness. It doesn’t dehydrate like a dry climate would.

What are the downsides?

The intense sun. With sunscreens, I recommend that you avoid chemical-based sunscreens but rather look more for sun block. Zinc oxide is going to be the number one active ingredient to look for.

Prado Museum, Madrid, 1955

The exuberant imagery of Elliott Erwitt is on display at the Boca Raton Museum of Art beginning November 9. The Paris-born photographer immigrated to America as a child in 1939 but never settled down in one location for too long.

His interest in photography was piqued as a teenager when he worked in a commercial darkroom in Los Angeles, processing “autographed” images of movie stars for fans. Known for his candid, iconic and historical photographs of John F. Kennedy, Che Guevara and Marilyn Monroe, Erwitt’s work is characterized by the charming and lighthearted perspective he takes on urban life and city surroundings. For this exhibition, Erwitt hand-selected 80 works that exemplify his decades-long career.

The exhibit tracks the emergence and expression of color as seen in pigment, chromogenic and traditional photography, among others. The work of Roberto Edwards (pictured) is highlighted in the show. Edwards’ photographs feature layers of artistry as he paints directly on people to illustrate the body as a threedimensional painted canvas. Other featured artists include Dianne Blell, who makes use of colorful backdrops imbued with elements of Hindu folklore, and Jan Groover, who is known for her still-life photos of common household items.
