Movie Review: A Million Ways to Die By Syd Slobodnik
Kyle Lang's bedroom pop project has been heavily delayed by a diagnosis of cancer in 2013, but the CU artist is playing a handful of shows for the last time.
Once again, we’re in the midst of the most magical time of year. Just as the tail end of spring heats up amongst the first throes of summer, buzz begins to build. The anticipation teems in the humidity. Rumors swarm, speculation escalates, blogs explode: it’s Apple announcement season. I consider myself somewhat of an enthusiast, so I get fairly amped every year when Tim Cook unveils new software, hardware or (if we’re lucky) both. But this year’s event, WWDC 2014 (Worldwide Developers’ Conference, for the uninitiated), turned up the heat and then broke the dial clean off. Senior vice president of Software Engineering Craig Federighi took the stage to reveal their new OS X, Yosemite. The sequel to last year’s OS X Mavericks, Yosemite includes a user interface redesign, as well as major new features focusing on seamless integration between Mac and iOS devices, a new cloud storage system called iCloud Drive, as well as the ability to make phone calls or send and receive text messages (even non-iMessage “green bubbles�) through an iPhone. The theme of Yosemite is undeniably continuity, though: besides the phone and text capabilites, Federighi introduced greater file-sharing features between iPhones and Macs, including the expansion of AirDrop to phoneto-computer pairings and the ability for Mac users to access their iPhone’s cellular data networks via their laptop. A new feature called Handoff lets users seamlessly transition between devices, recognizing tasks and allowing you to, say, begin composing an email on your iPhone then finish it on your MacBook. The big surprise of the keynote address, however, came when Federighi announced they were also unveiling the brand new iOS 8. There are a multitude of new features for consumers, including revamped notification features, an upgrade to the keyboard’s AutoCorrect functionality called QuickType, support for third-party keyboards, improvements to Mail and the much-rumored health-tracking feature and companion app, called Health Kit. We can finally reply to messages from the Notification Center, as well as respond to Facebook and Twitter notifications from the same place. Messages can send and receive users’ locations and audio clips. It may not be everything I had personally been hoping for—how about a hologram projector? Siri could be modeled after R2’s projection of Princess Leia’s infamous, “Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobi; you’re my only hope�—but the one-two punch of iOS 8 and OS X Yosemite proves that Apple is far from dead. The tech innovation giant is going to keep on keeping on, revolutionizing shit and running the world. Hell yeah.

SUMMER LOVIN' BY MATT MESCHINO Whether society has a warped notion of summer flings from movies like Grease, there still may be some truth in the idea. Here are some guidelines for smooth sailing on the summer loveboat. Do: Lay it on the line: Establish some ground rules, letting one another know what is wanted and unwanted, so as to avoid awkward situations such as the “So, what are we?” conversation. Change it up: Instead of simply calling a fling when the sun goes down, try something else. Summer is full of a variety of outdoor and indoor events, so do something that both parties can enjoy. Pay attention: Keep phones on silent and, preferably, out of sight when in each other’s company. Enjoy the company and become more comfortable with each other in no time. Don’t: Panic seeing him or her unexpectedly: Running into summer flings can be awkward, but don't ignore them. However, there is always a chance of coming on too strong or not strong enough. Jealousy might occur, which usually does not go over so well. Meet the parents: Nothing says “serious” like meeting a summer fling’s parents. Pulling the “meet the parents” card will probably have your summer fling running for the hills, so do not play this hand. Make promises without the intentions of keeping them: If someone promises to not see other people, they probably shouldn't. Play on, playas. Just be cool. BUZZ STAFF

» My dark summer reading: During the “normal” school year, my recreational reading tends to be a bit high-brow, if I do any recreational reading at all. But, as soon as the spring semester is over and my roommates are all moved out, I go straight for my mom’s enormous Stephen King collection. Last summer, I whipped through like seven of his books, which may not seem super crazy, but one of those books was The Stand—the unedited version, at that. My first SK pick this summer is The Shining. Remember how I said that my roommates are all moved out? Yeah, which means I’m currently living alone, and lately, I don’t get to the book until around midnight. (Maybe I’m subconsciously trying to make reading it even creepier?) So far, I’ve held up pretty well; however, (for those of you familiar with the novel or film), when I hit parts that talk about Tony, I CAN’T. I immediately pull a Joey Tribbiani and throw the book in the freezer. Okay, not really, but I do shut the book and plan to read those parts during daylight hours. I mean, kids are terrify enough as it is, and I don’t need to be reading about a little ghost kid showing another little kid what happens when the shit goes down a.k.a. his dad going psycho killer—at least, not that late at night. I have a love/hate relationship with my summer reading choices: I love anything dealing with ghosts and horror, but those things definitely take their tolls when I’m spending the summers alone. Maybe I’m some sort of a selfsadomasochist. Whatever, I’m rambling now because I just hit a Tony part and am attempting to distract myself. I need a drink (REDRUM, perhaps?). HELP.

» The Return of The X-Files in My Life: Lately I've become affected by an anecdote of my childhood -- the misadventures of Skully and Mulder. As a kid, when I couldn't sleep (ie every single night), my dad would stay up watching The X-Files and let me perch alongside him. The classic nineties series, culminating a melting pot of science fiction, horror, drama, and goofy dark humor, has recently wiggled its way into my life again. And boy, am I hooked. If names were to combine the protagonist FBI agents duo, you would literally get "Smulder" by combining the two. With nine seasons and enough sexual tension to fuel a rocket ship to Venus and back (and to various extraterrestrial lands along the way), the show has goddamn everything. However, the problem lies within the side effects of the show. Such has included: binge watching on Netflix between the hours of 10 p.m. and 6 a.m.; hearing the eerie theme song (doo-DOOdoo-DOO-doo-DOOOO) on repeat while closing alone at work; the quiet yet constant consideration of everyday objects as weapons in case of self defense, etc. Also, if you like David Duchovny, search his name and "tea cup" via Google Images. Look out for that picture of him in absolutely no clothing, withholding a large tea cup censoring his XXX junk. (I made my friend a custom card deck with this as the image on the cards' backs. No regrets.) I want to believe.

original X-Men came at a time well before Iron Man kicked off the modern superhero obsession. In the 14 years since X-Men came out, Spider-Man went through a trilogy and a reboot, Christopher Nolan’s Batman came and went, and the Marvel Cinematic Universe produced nine films. Through it all, X-Men has managed to maintain a single continuity. For a film to carry such a long legacy on its shoulders is no small feat. X-Men: Days of Future Past focuses on bringing together the young cast of X-Men: First Class with the older members of the series in a time traveling journey that seeks to tie all the loose ends of the past 14 years into a coherent story. In the present day storyline, our society has devolved into a dystopian witch hunt that seeks to exterminate humans born with genetic variations that give them superpowers, or mutants. Professor Xavier (Patrick Stewart), the leader of the mutants that formed the X-Men, sends Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) back in time to stop a disaster that leads to the present hellish state of affairs from ever occurring. To say that there’s a lot of potential for something to go wrong would be an understatement. The film had to juggle fans that had been following the entire series and others that hopped on after seeing First Class. Also, while time travel is a common sight in comics, it’s difficult to implement well in a film that must also deliver a healthy dose of satisfying action. Director Bryan Singer manages to play to the strengths of the series and delivers a satisfying summer blockbuster. Time travel rarely works in blockbuster films because it’s just too confusing. As the film’s plot already deals with a gigantic cast
and multiple storylines, there are only so many elements that can be explained without slowing Days of Future Past down. Singer executes a time travel movie well by not making time travel the focus of the movie. He wisely chooses to have a brief five-minute exposition in the beginning on how time travel works in the X-Men universe and rarely discusses it afterwards, leaving the detailed, convoluted time travel intricacies to films like Primer. The cynic in me sees the movie’s time travel as an excuse to plant Hugh Jackman, who plays Wolverine in the present-day storyline, into the First Class cast. After all, the scenes with the future mutants are mostly inconsequential to the plotline and are already fairly disjointed from the past timeline. On the plus side, time traveling allows the series to gain all of the advantages of a reboot without the destruction of all of the accumulated plot that a reboot would necessitate. The film gives new fans an opportunity to jump in and understand the major plot points, and also ties First Class better into the X-Men continuity. Most importantly, it sets the characters and settings up for the larger X-Men cinematic universe in much the same way that Marvel did with its Avengers films. In addition, if Twentieth Century Fox is doing everything to mimic the success of Disney and Marvel, you can bet that Hugh Jackman is their Robert Downey, Jr. While Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine still played a central role in Days of Future Past, Singer does an amiable job of giving screen time to plenty of the other mutants. James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender still play delightful young Xavier and Magneto, respectively. Evan Peters also delivers some of the more memorable
moments in the film as Quicksilver. It’s a shame, though, that he disappeared almost as quickly as he appeared. Quicksilver isn’t the only tease in the film. Barring the great action sequence at the very beginning, Days of Future Past plays out more like a teaser for what’s to come than necessarily showing the audience much on its own. Very little action actually takes place in the movie, and even seeing Jennifer Lawrence as Mystique kicking the butts of various enemies gets old. This film has one of the largest casts of superheroes seen in theaters today, yet they are all too shy to show their powers. There’s potential for so much more, but instead we get treated to a subpar robot fight as the climax to the film. Against all odds, X-Men: Days of Future Past comes out as an entertaining and impressive product. It had to tie together many large ideas in a way that would be fascinating for longtime fans but approachable for new viewers. Days of Future Past embodies two themes that are always embedded in X-Men, adaptability and potential. For perspective, the original X-Men came out in 2000, soon after Joel Schumacher’s disastrous Batman & Robin in 1997. For a series to exist this long and now compete toe-to-toe with modern superhero films, such as Captain America, is a testament to Bryan Singer’s ability to evolve the series to cater to an ever-changing audience, culminating with Days of Future Past. At the same time, the latest X-Men demonstrates how much potential there is with this all-star cast and Stan Lee and Jack Kirby’s excellent characters. Here’s to hoping that the upcoming X-Men: Apocalypse will unlock the full potential of the series.

here are few musicians as involved in the CU music scene as Kamila Glowacki. When she’s not contributing artwork for local releases or playing bass in a band, Glowacki is fronting her own project, Nectar. Nectar’s debut tape showed tremendous promise from Glowacki and has the CU scene on the lookout for more Nectar releases. buzz caught up with Glowacki before Nectar’s first show this Saturday to discuss individuality in a music scene, DIY ethics and finding the right people to play music with. »buzz: How has being a part of Kowabunga! Kid affected your work with Nectar? »Kamila Glowacki: Well, Kowabunga! Kid has always been really led by Aaron (Shults), like Aaron writes the majority of the songs and is kind of the leader in a sense. Kowabunga! Kid obviously is important to me, but I also always kind of felt like I was participating in that band, instead of being a leader, like a super-active force in it. That’s not to say it’s any less important or fun or any of that, it’s still a really great band and everything. I think that (Kowabunga! Kid) was a really nice stepping stone for me to get comfortable playing music, playing in front of people, playing with people who are like my best friends, and just getting really comfortable with that. So that kind of... »buzz: Introduced you? »KG: Yeah! »buzz: Was that your first band? »KG: No, I’ve been in a couple bands before that. My first band was in high school, maybe like sophomore year or so. And I used to be in The Island of Misfit Toys.
»buzz: When was that? »KG: That was like... senior year or freshman year of college or so. »buzz: So, when was Nectar first conceived? »KG: Hmm, that’s kind of tricky cause in high school I was in a band called Girl Scouts with my friend Hasumi. »buzz: That’s a cool band name! »KG: Thanks, I should use that! (Laughs). But some of the songs were conceived in some ways, and I would write all the parts and stuff for that band so that was the baby step for Nectar. I feel like it’s almost kind of been starting since then, but it wasn’t until very recently that I was like, “Hey, I want to be the main singer of the band and been writing the songs and stuff.” I think it took me a while to find people who I was comfortable to play music with. I didn’t want to always play music with Aaron and all his friends. Just like, me and my boyfriend which is fine, but you want to be seen as an individual and not just someone’s boyfriend or girlfriend. »buzz: How does playing with different musicians affect the overall sound of the band? »KG: It definitely does. I was talking to Aaron about this recently. Me performing solo sounds totally different than the tape which sounds totally different than our Nectar practices that have just started. Sean (Neumann) brings something totally new and he’ll be like, “Oh, why don’t we do this instead?” and Jake (Mott) will drum parts differently than John (Menchaca) did on the recording. I really like that about it thought because it’s something new each time. Even last time we practiced, we reworked a song all together be-

cause there was this song that was always just me and guitar and there was never drums or anything, but they all were able to kind of add to it and be like, “Oh, why don’t we try this?” and it formed into something totally different and awesome.
“ME PERFORMING SOLO SOUNDS TOTALLY DIFFERENT THAN THE TAPE WHICH SOUNDS TOTALLY DIFFERENT THAN OUR NECTAR PRACTICES THAT HAVE JUST STARTED.” »buzz: So is it becoming a band dynamic more so than just your project? »KG: Yeah, a little bit. It’s hard to say because we’ve only practiced twice (laughs). But yeah, I can definitely see it going that way. »buzz: What do you like about releasing cassette tapes specifically as opposed to other formats? »KG: I really wanted to do a tape because—I don’t know how to say this without sounding pretentious (laughs)—but, I’m an artist. I went to art school so I really like music as an object, and tapes are one of my favorite objects just because I like how physical they are and also, they’re these very small things that I’m just very interested in. I wanted to make
something really special, like I put a lot of work into the tape. It’s very intricate and delicate. »buzz: Do you prefer DIY ethics over relying on a bigger entity to help produce your work or have a hand in the final product? »KG: Yeah, totally. I mean, a lot of the DIY things that happen are really important to me. And even just being a woman in music, I want to learn how to record and set up my instrument and do all these things myself and even packaging the tape, I really enjoy the process of even just gluing it and knowing I made these all myself. There’s a sense of pride in just not needing to rely on anybody and learning more about how everything works, which I think is really cool. »buzz: What are your plans for the future of Nectar? Is this a one-and-done type deal or do you plan on pursing it further? »KG: I definitely want to pursue it further. It’s also making me want to start even more other bands. My really good friend John (Menchaca) recently moved, and he was a big part of a lot of the bands I’m in, so that’s kind of pushing me to just start things on my own. But yeah, I definitely want to play shows everywhere and tour and all this stuff! »buzz: Are you excited for the show this coming Saturday? » KG: Honestly, I’m excited that it’s the first show. I’m not excited that it’s at a bar. I like the idea of all ages and things like that, the DIY thing, house show to have our first show. Catch Nectar at Mike ‘N' Molly’s this Saturday night with Orange Soda and Marvin the Robot. The show starts at 7 p.m. and costs $7. June 6-12, 2014 buzz 5

READING BETWEEN THE BARS
Champaign-Urbana’s Books 2 Prisoners seeks summer volunteers BY CARLY GUBBINS
W
ith donation bins throughout CU, including the Illini Union Bookstore, Common Ground Food Co-op, Strawberry Fields Natural Food Market and Parkland College, chances are that Books 2 Prisoners (B2P) has at least crossed the paths of many. B2P is a non-for-profit organization that provides (that's right!) books to prisoners. B2P is run entirely by volunteers, with the exception of volunteer supervisor Lolita Dumas. Based in Urbana’s Independent Media Center (IMC), B2P ships books to inmates throughout Illinois and runs Champaign County’s jail libraries: the downtown jail and the Satellite Jail in Urbana. “The Satellite Jail actually houses the most number of inmates, and these inmates are awaiting trial. There are some females at the Satellite Jail,” Dumas said. The jail library volunteer hours are Mondays from 6-8 p.m. and Fridays from 8:30-11:30 a.m. Jail librarians have the opportunity to work directly with inmates. The only differences between the jail librarian program and the open volunteer sessions at the IMC are that volunteers must be at least 21 years-old and get a background check. B2P’s open volunteer sessions are held on Tuesdays from 7-9 p.m. and Thursdays and Saturdays from 2-4 p.m. Here, volunteers read letters from inmates asking for particular books. Volunteers then select books from the B2P’s library and send them to the inmates. Dumas said that, “because our books
are based on donations, we don’t always have the specific title, but we’ll always have something within that category, so we try to get as close as possible,” which she said the inmates really appreciate. Nine times out of 10, Dumas said inmates write B2P saying things like, ‘Well, I know you didn’t send me what I wanted, but I really enjoyed what you sent.’ “So, it’s really important that people take time to actually select books,” Dumas said. B2P is currently looking for more volunteers because many volunteers leave for the summer, but more books are donated than usual. Whether students donate books that they would only get pennies for or people are cleaning out their garages, “They tend to dump books here, and that’s why we really try to push the information about our donation guidelines” Dumas said. B2P sorts through the books, first selecting ones that inmates prefer, which is anything from mystery thrillers and series that have been made into movies, like Twilight and The Hunger Games, to books on addiction recovery and learning a trade. Many inmates also request GED books and, often times, higher-level calculus textbooks. Then, B2P select books that inmates can actually receive. “Some facilities don’t allow hardbacks, so we look really closely in terms of what hardbacks we do accept,” Dumas said. The books that are not shelved for the inmates are sold in B2P’s book sale.

“Some people say Iyengar yoga is the easiest [yoga style]. Some people say it is the hardest. But once you’ve done it, all of the other styles seem reckless.”
B2P’s book sale is its number one fundraiser, which it tries to coordinate with the University’s Moms' Weekend. The sale primarily raises money for shipping costs: “We’ve actually shipped 96,000 books in 10 years, so that can get kind of costly,” Dumas said. “As a result, we only ship books every three to four months.” With B2P’s official 10-year anniversary coming up in the fall, Dumas hopes to increase the shipping total to 100,000 books. So far, things are looking good, but Dumas said it would be nice to “meet that monument.” “Champaign-Urbana is pretty rich in terms of community and social justice,” Dumas said. B2P is calling out to all social and criminal justice organizations and classes that are interested in doing volunteer sessions. They are welcome to volunteer as individuals, but they can also do group volunteer sessions (five or more volunteers), in which they should contact Dumas to make arrangements. Volunteer Meaghan McGinnis does not have much time to spare but, when she does, she spends it volunteering for B2P. “I have acquaintances who have been in a situation where they’ve been in jail, and there really aren’t any resources there for anybody to better themselves,” McGinnis said. “Luckily, the couple of people I know who have been there come from better family backgrounds, so they have that support on the outside;

other people don’t,” McGinnis said. The response B2P receives may be hard to believe: even Dumas is sometimes surprised. “We actually had a gentleman (who) bought a thank you card, and it was not a cheap card,” Dumas said. Many times inmates have sent B2P money, which of course, it sends back to them. “Money’s really hard, and that commissary stuff is expensive,” Dumas said, which shows how much B2P and its books mean to the inmates. Like McGinnis asked, “How do you expect them to be any better when they get out if you don’t provide them with anything while they’re in there?” To learn more about B2P, its volunteer opportunities and arranging large donations or book drives, call 708782-4608 or visit http://books2prisoners.org.

CUISINE FOR THE CUP: GROUP A
Explore the favorite foods of the nations taking the pitch in Brazil this summer BY PAUL ANGELILLO
W
ith over six decades since they last hosted the World Cup, Brazil is now only days away from opening its doors as the epicenter of soccer’s most illustrious competition. Though the futebol on show is guaranteed to be of the highest order, the 32-nation tournament is never just a competition, but a month-long celebration and exchange of cultures. Group A, the first of the tournament, features the five-time winners and current host Brazil, battling it out alongside Mexico, Croatia and Cameroon for two spots in the knockout round. These countries, apart from their great players, pride themselves on their equally great flavors and ingredients, and there’s no better time to delve into trying them than the coming thirty days of soccer madness. Though it’s up to the eleven men on the field to put the ball in the net, you can make your own attempt at devouring the competition with these festive dishes from the first four countries duking it out under the Brazilian sun. BRAZIL: FEIJOADA For a tournament that’s Brazilian from head to toe, it only makes sense to feature the country’s national dish: a smoky, hearty black bean stew filled with meat that’s sure to keep you going for all 90 minutes. With Brazil blazing to victory over current World Cup and Euro holders Spain in last year’s Confederations Cup, feijoada’s richness reflects a well-balanced squad that’s strong from Thiago Silva in defense to Oscar in midfield and, of course, Barcelona star Neymar in attack. There are huge expectations that the team wins their sixth trophy on their home soil, yet this dish is sure not to let anybody down. Preparation time: 3 hours Servings: 8 Ingredients: 12 ounces dry black beans, soaked overnight in water 1 cups onion, chopped 1/2 cup green onions, chopped 1 clove garlic, chopped 2 ham hocks 8 ounces ham, diced 1/2 pound bacon, diced 1 table spoon olive oil 2 bay leaves 1/8 teaspoon coriander 1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped 1/4 cup parsley, chopped Directions: Heat the oil in a large pot. Add 3/4 cup of chopped onion, green onions and garlic. Cook and stir until softened, about 4 minutes. Pour in the soaked beans and fill with enough water to
cover beans 3 inches. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer uncovered for 2 hours, or until tender. While beans are cooking, place ham hocks in a smaller pot with 1/4 cup of the chopped onion. Cover with water and simmer until meat pulls off the bone easily, about 1 hour. Drain and add to the beans. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Place ham, bacon and remaining onion in a baking dish. Bake 15 minutes or until crispy. Drain the bacon and ham mixture and add to the beans. Season with bay leaves, coriander, salt and pepper. Simmer uncovered 30 minutes more. Stir in chopped cilantro and parsley just before serving. CROATIA: BAKED STRUKLI Simple, doughy, cheesy goodness, Croatian strukli originate from the Zagorje region of the country. The gooey, baked bundles bring together some of the favorite flavors and textures of typical American “sports” food yet use a super thin dough that demands patience. The reward is worth it, though: a light crust that surrounds a delectable middle filling that reflects the strength of Luka Modric and Ivan Rakitic in Croatia’s midfield. Preparation time: 1.5 hours Servings: 6 Ingredients for the dough: 4 cups all purpose flour 1 teaspoon salt 1 egg 2 tablespoons sunflower or vegetable oil 1 tablespoon vinegar 1/2 cup lukewarm water For the filling 20 ounces fresh cottage cheese 9 tablespoons butter, softened 4 eggs 1/2 cup sour cream Directions: Sift flour combined with salt onto clean work surface and make indentation in the middle. Put one egg into indentation, add oil and combine all ingredients using a fork. Mix some lukewarm water with vinegar and gradually add to the dough until it all comes together. Knead the dough with hands until it’s smooth: it should be smooth and elastic, not too soft and sticky. Divide dough into three equal parts, brush each with oil and cover with warm pot. Leave aside for 30 minutes. While the dough rests, prepare the filling: Mix softened butter with fresh cottage cheese. Add eggs, sour cream, salt and pepper. Take a clean tablecloth and dust with some

flour. Put 1 part of the dough onto it, roll out with rolling pin until thin and then begin stretching it with your palms. Be gentle and patient, stretching it from the middle. The dough should be thin, but for strukli you don’t need to make it too thin. Cut out any thick edges then sprinkle the dough with melted butter before brushing the filling over half of the dough. Roll the dough up from end to end using the tablecloth and then, using your hands, separate the dough into equal parts by pressing down firmly, sealing them with the edge of a plate (to ensure the filling doesn’t pour out).Preheat oven to 390 degrees F. Brush a baking pan with butter and assemble the strukli inside. Combine sour cream with some salt and pour mixture over strukli. Place a couple of cubes of butter on top and finish with some grated cheese. Bake for about 40 minutes until nicely golden. Let cool slightly and serve warm. MEXICO: CEVICHE With a tumultuous qualification round that saw them go through four different coaches, Miguel Herrera now looks to lead a new generation of players in grasping their nation’s first ever World Cup title. Just as this Mexican ceviche blends a variety of raw, fresh ingredients in perfect harmony, the team will seek to capture the same sort of chemistry. Nevertheless, Gio dos Santos and supersub Javier “Chicharito” Hernández always have the sort of acidic punch to make magic out of nothing. Preparation time: 2 hours Servings: 8 Ingredients: 5 large lemons, juiced 1 pound jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro Tomato and clam juice cocktail (as preferred) 2 white onions, finely chopped 1 cucumber, peeled and finely chopped 1 large tomato, seeded and chopped 3 fresh jalapeño peppers, seeded and minced 1 bunch radishes, finely diced
2 cloves fresh garlic, minced Directions: Place shrimp in a bowl (you may leave them whole or coarsely chop them depending on preference). Add lemon juice, covering shrimp completely. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes or until opaque and slightly firm. Add tomatoes, onions, cucumber, radishes and garlic. Toss to combine. Gradually add cilantro and jalapeños to desired taste. Stir in tomato and claim juices to desired consistency. Cover, and refrigerate for 1 hour. Serve chilled. CAMEROON: BROCHETTES A LA CAMEROUNAISES Simply prepared and grilled but packing a vibrant, spicy flavor, these Cameroonian beef kabobs reflect a team that’s been a mainstay at past World Cups but is now looking to impress. One of the top teams in Africa in the past decade, the Indomitable Lions are looking to leave politics behind, hoping all-time leading scorer Samuel Eto’o can replicate his club form for his nation. Preparation time: 3.5 hours Servings: 2-4 Ingredients: 1 pound beef sirloin, cut into bite-sized pieces 1 white or Vidalia onion 1 tablespoon fresh ginger 5 cloves of garlic 2 tomatoes, chopped 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper 3 tablespoons vegetable oil Directions: Blend ginger, garlic, tomatoes, vinegar, salt and cayenne pepper into a homogeneous paste using a blender, making sure there are no chunks. Pour marinade over the beef and allow to marinate in refrigerator for at least 3 hours. Grill the marinated beef chunks and slices of onion on skewers to desired temperature, brushing them with the oil to ensure proper color. June 6-12, 2014 buzz 7

REDEFINING THE THEATER EXPERIENCE The New Short Play Festival brings young artists and audiences to the stage BY AALIYAH GIBSON

T
hey say home is where the heart is. As students who are growing, learning and taking a path to become the individuals we wish to be, it’s safe to say that the University is the second home in which our hearts will always remain. That is exactly what brought Tyrone Phillips and five other alumni back on campus to work with students for The New Short Play Festival, a set of performances dedicated to forcing viewers to reconsider previously held perceptions of theater. “We want a new generation of people to come out,” Phillips said. “We want people who don’t come to the theater to have a good time at the theater. We’re focused on having a theater experience that the new generation can enjoy and encourage them to return to the theater. So we’re trying to have a multicultural audience both on-stage and off.” Phillips, who graduated in 2012, studied Acting at the University. Moving from campus to the city, he and five other recent University

graduates started Definition Theater Company, a company working to show the evolving state of America with “contemporary and classical productions,” said Phillips. “We all kind of started acting in high school, and since then found each other at U of I,” Phillips said. “We realized that we worked really well together.” With more than a dozen productions occurring through each academic year, there was one in particular that stuck with Phillips. “The Krannert Center has so many productions, but I would say “Who to Love” definitely (impacted me as a student),” Phillips said. “Three of the six members (of Definition Theatre Company) were part of that show, and that was late in our first semester of senior year.” But it was performing in productions and viewing the shows at the university that encouraged Phillips to continue with acting after college. “'Macbeth,' with Bob Anderson, as a director was something that I learned a lot from
professionally,” Phillips said. “Then we ended with 'The Brothers Size.’ We performed it in Urbana and then we took it to Chicago and it was actually the show that (Definition Theatre Company) first opened up with.” So, with a team of passionate alumni and a University with up-and-coming students studying Fine Arts, the Definition Theatre Company decided to team up with hardworking students to create a set of shows with the capacity to move an audience. “The New Short Play Festival (will consist of) scripts that we collected and the university collected together,” Phillips said. “The Master of Fine Art students and the Bachelor of Fine Arts students (who) are currently enlisted are going to be performing and members of the Definition Theatre Company will be directing and performing in them as well. It’s a lot.” With each of the eight plays running for 10 minutes, even writers on the coast joined to contribute a piece of their work to the powerful production.
“There are writers from Los Angeles to New York to Chicago,” Phillips said. “We also have a lot of alums (who) have plays that will be featured.” As for the dedication and motivation to make sure The New Short Play Festival will be one of the best audiences have seen thus far, hard work and strong teamwork went into each minute of the showings. “Well, you know, it’s been almost a year of planning into this,” Phillips said. “So, from last summer we were collecting plays and seeing what would work best, what could fit and what kind of message we wanted the audience to see. Especially with it being summertime now, we put a lot of that into consideration, as well as the fact that a lot of the playwrights are U of I alums.” Picking a favorite play is an especially difficult task for the team. “We do not have a favorite,” Phillips said. “It’s just all really good work. It’s basically celebrating new voices and younger playwrights. The oldest of them are in their mid to late-30s, but a

lot of them are new youth playwrights and their stuff is real good. (All of the plays are) language driven, ensemble based work.” After a year of preparation and a team of people working to create the productions, Phillips is one of many hoping The New Short Play Festival will change how theater is often perceived. “We’re trying to bring a crowd to the theater that isn’t used to coming,” Phillips said. “We’re trying to reach out to the younger generation. We want the younger generation to come to the theater, have a good time and realize that the theater is not all it used to be. We’re trying to change the real professional way you see a show. We want everyone to have a good time and facilitate a big party atmosphere to celebrate the work of these new playwrights.” Phillips, along with the other University alumni, students and young writers who worked to make sure The Short Play Festival will impact viewers, had a year to work on the productions. But it is the joining of forces—from beginners to
veterans—who will make The New Short Play something especially different. “We are always trying to keep our relationship with the University,” Phillips said. “So we’re basically trying to spread the awareness of our company, but also the presence of U of I alums. To come back to (perform at) the U of I is really effective for us.” The New Short Play Festival begins June 11 and will remain at the Krannert Center until June 14, but for viewers that wish to see alumni at work in Chicago, the Definition Theatre Company will continue to spread their work from Urbana to the city. “We are actually working on our upcoming season next,” Phillips said. “So, we’re going to gear up for that actually. When we get back to Chicago, we’re going to start rehearsing for that in August.”

THE DOUBLE The Art Theater Co-op, Champaign, Friday, June 6; 7:30 p.m.
Simon (Jesse Eisenberg) is a shy man who works as a government clerk. He’s continually ignored by the people who matter to him, such as his mother and the woman of his dreams, and lives in a world that cares little about him. One day, someone arrives in his life who is his exact physical double but his exact opposite in personality: charming, confident, and seductive. The double slowly starts taking control of Simon’s life in this haunting film directed by Richard Ayoade (Submarine, 2010).
