NAVIGATING THE DIP IN FEDERAL COVID AID There is deep concern in our communities and vulnerable populations across the state about a topic that impacts many New Mexicans: the idea that “free” COVID-19 services are going away. In a nutshell, Federal COVID-19 reimbursement guidelines have changed, and that affects services that used to be available at no cost to the public. While vaccines and treatments do remain free to the public, the cost of administering them is absorbed by providers who themselves struggle to handle the additional operational costs. Everyone—regardless of your ability to pay—should get tested, vaccinated, and treated because everyone deserves the ability to minimize illness from COVID-19. We are in this together and need to look out for each other. So we want to reassure you that these critical services will still be available at little or no cost to you. However, there were big changes starting July 1, and we want to make sure everyone is aware and understands what their options are. If you have insurance, please check with your health insurer, including Medicaid, Medicare for

coverage of testing, vaccinations and treatment. We anticipate these services will be covered at minimal to no cost under most health insurance plans. If you qualify for Medicaid, we urge you to enroll, which you can easily do at Yes.state. nm.us. Some pharmacies and providers also offer sliding scale payment options for COVID19 services. If you are one of the approximately 287,000 uninsured people in New Mexico there are still many options available for you, including free home tests and free PCR testing. Vaccines are still free, too. We recognize that navigating the COVID space can sometimes be hard, frustrating or confusing. But there are many ways to beat COVID, and that includes vaccines, testing, treatments, and COVID safe practices. Thanks to all our community has been doing, hospitalizations and deaths from COVID have remained relatively stable—and together we can do more. If you are a provider of services, we ask that you share what is available at no-cost or low cost. Also, many of us still need our boosters, and the long-awaited vaccine for children aged 6 months and older is finally here! So let’s keep prioritizing safety and not give up in the last mile. We can’t say when we’ll beat this thing, but all signs point to us being closer than ever. I’m really proud of how far we’ve come together.

Armed and Young New Mexico sees increase in youth firearm deaths B Y G R A N T C R AW F O R D g r a n t @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
R
ecent shootings involving young adults and youths, coupled with rising gun-related deaths among teens, are setting off alarm bells among New Mexicans and the law enforcement officials employed to protect them. According to a study by New Mexico State University professor Jagdish Khubchandani, who analyzed data from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, New Mexico saw a 45% increase in gun deaths between 2010 and 2019 for residents 19 and under. The overall rate per 100,000 people, meanwhile, has climbed by 30%. Santa Fe Police Chief Paul Joye says the figures indicate a need for change. He’s an advocate for working with outreach groups for intervention and diversion efforts, “to find these at-risk youths before they go down this road and make a decision that they can’t take back.” “It’s very easy to distance yourself when you talk about numbers and statistics, but when you break it down, each one of these numbers is somebody’s life,” Joye tells SFR. “It’s someone’s friend, child, sibling—and it’s terrible.” Joye and Santa Fe County Sheriff Adan Mendoza say they’re not just tracking a jump in young people victimized in violent crimes; they’ve also seen an increase in youthful offenders committing violent or gun-related crimes. According to Chief Deputy District Attorney Jennifer Padgett Macias, there was an uptick of youth gun violence in 2020, “without question.” However, many of those types of cases never result in charges or convictions because of a lack of suspects or uncooperative witnesses. “So those cases never truly came to fruition, but the activity, the crimes around gun violence was certainly an uptick in 2020,” Padgett Macias says.

The Santa Fe area has seen multiple teen deaths as a result of gun violence in recent years. Earlier this month, Santa Fe Police Department officers found Juan Emmanuel Vazquez-Salas, 19, suffering from a fatal gunshot wound in the parking lot of Las Palomas Apartments. No suspects have been identified. In 2020, local basketball star Fedonta “JB” White, 18, was shot outside of a house party in Chupadero. Estevan Montoya, who was 16 at the time, was sentenced in
June to life in prison with the possibility of parole after 30 years. Also in 2020, 17-year-old Ivan Perez, Montoya’s friend, was shot and killed in the parking lot of The Bluffs at Tierra Contenta Apartments. Charges against the suspected shooter, who was 18 at the time, were dropped last September with prosecutors citing a flawed police investigation. Last year, Abram Martinez, 17, was charged with first-degree murder in the shooting death of Isaiah Herrera, 19. The jury selection for his case is scheduled for August. Recently, Santa Fe police took two teens into custody for their alleged involvement in a drive-by shooting on June

18. A 70-year-old woman was shot in the abdomen while sleeping in her living room. The suspected shooter, Santos Ben Atenco, turned himself in June 20 and is charged with aggravated battery with a deadly weapon, shooting at or from a motor vehicle resulting in great bodily harm and conspiracy to shoot at or from a motor vehicle. Authorities hit the suspected driver, Patrick Marquez, with similar charges. The shooting has left residents on Gomez Road in the South Capitol neighborhood on edge, Eric Radack tells SFR. “Many of the immediate neighbors are experiencing PTSD after the shooting,” Radack says. “We’re hyper-vigilant for loud cars in the night. For many nights, I’ve woken at exactly the time of the shooting in the morning, at 6:15. I’m afraid in my neighborhood, in my home.” Radack, who lives across the street from the house that was shot at, was the first to render aid to the woman, helping control the bleeding while waiting for
Glenn Ellington handed down the life sentence, but attorneys for the teen are planning an appeal. “It’s not over, yet, that’s for sure—not by a long shot,” says Dan Marlowe, Montoya’s attorney. Marlowe plans to ask the state Supreme Court for a summary reversal in the case, arguing Ellington should have instructed the jury to consider self defense. He cites testimony that White was swinging at Montoya when the bullet struck him. He feels his client was treated harshly and points to the environment in which he grew up as a primary factor. “He didn’t have a real good upbringing and he thought he was a tough guy,” Marlowe says. “That’s the style now—the fashion, so to speak. It’s just the way kids are these days. It used to be you’d beat people up. Nowadays, you shoot people.” The biggest change in youth firearm deaths between 2010 and 2019 was the suicide rate. That figure shot up by 63%. The rate of homicides rose by 19%. Khubchandani, the NMSU professor whose study was published in the American Journal of Medicine, examined 2020 figures for SFR and found that of the 41 gun deaths among people 19 and underin New Mexico, 23 were suicides and 17 were homicides. (One was unintentional.) Khubchandani wasn’t surprised by the numbers and believes the trend will continue. He points to the fact that US ANS ON ST E civilians had stockpiled VEN S-B OLL EN more than 393 million guns by 2017. “We have more guns than people now,” he tells SFR. “It’s been a constant increase in household ownEMTs to arrive.

t’s honestly hard to feel all that good about anything these days, what with SCOTUS seemingly dead-set on stripping rights from anyone but straight, cis, white men. But that’s what’s great about art—it provides a respite and helps folks work out their feelings; it can tell a story or be a distraction. For this year’s Illustrator’s Cup, many of the winning images (and honorable mentions) do just that. Take 1st Place
winner Odessa Sawyer’s “Night Drive,” an ethereal and haunting piece that feels a little bit X-Files, a whole lot gorgeous. Or look to 2nd Place’s “Poppy Love” by Andrea Soorikian, a complex piece that feels new while recalling old Sunset Magazine covers. Cynthia Young’s 3rd Place-winning “Self” hits a little harder, though, especially in this moment. That’s the other thing about art—it isn’t afraid to help us confront the hard truths.

Shadow Dancers Santa Fe’s EmiArte opens their flashy new production “People are always asking me what the story was behind the show is, and that got me thinking that this should be a story you can relate to, regardless of experience, age or language. So this is going to express all the emotions,” flamenco artist La Emi tells SFR. “I want them to feel it. Falling in love, heartbreak, suffering, joy, concentration and beauty. All of the emotions are on display here.” There’s a great freedom in seeing a flamenco show like the kind from EmiArte. Call it audience autonomy or creative freedom, but La Emi and company want to keep the audience in control of how they interpret the show. Frankly, you can’t really do it wrong—and newly added stage effects might even make your interpretations more colorful, though this dance company doesn’t seem overwhelmed in the slightest. For the cast and crew, the new technical marvels in their live show is just another step in a direction they’ve always been heading. These modern elements range from a new lighting set-up to help intensify shadows to a smoke machine for dreamlike sequences. New handmade costumes from Maria Sena add fiery satin flair, too, and a number of new props hail straight from the motherland—handmade fans from Valencia being just one example. 16

If you’re eager to see old favorites, don’t fret. Dixon-born musical master Vicente Griego and his band return to play rumbia flamenca. And, of course, there is La Emi herself. As a homegrown star born and raised in Santa Fe, her passion for dance has led to near-yearly travels to Spain for tutelage under the world’s most renowned dancers. Because of this, she says, audiences will never need to take their focus off the traditional elements that make up the beloved peninsular dance; and skilled production folk from both the Lensic Performing Arts Center and AMP Concerts are helping build the show. “We want to make it visually satiating. We want the audience to eat up the show,” La Emi continues. “This debut of our brand-new show is a big stepping-stone for our company. A lot people have seen our growth as artists and producers. I’m proud to be from New Mexico, and my vision is to provide year-round work with New Mexico artists. The majority of [the working crew] are from here. I personally think success takes a lot of hard work and dedication, and I’m very blessed.” (Riley Gardner) EmiArte Summer Flamenco Series 8 pm Saturday, July 9. $25-$55 The Lodge at Santa Fe 750 N St Francis Drive, (505) 982-5800
Sometimes you’re just trying to run a tea shop, but all your regulars are talking about building the most powerful weapon known to mankind over a nice jasmine green. It happened to Edith Warner, who famously ran a Los Alamos establishment frequented by scientists and engineers doing you know what. La Fonda’s Centennial Speaker Series includes memories from Ellen Bradbury Reid, who knew Warner—and J. Robert Oppenheimer—personally, and James Hopkins who witnessed the atomic bombings of Japan from the skies. In the program’s second half, filmmakers Bruce Gelfand and Alton Walpole take the stage to discuss their in-progress documentary about Warner and how her little tea shop and restaurant powered the folks behind the Manhattan Project. Why has the little adobe house at the Otowi Bridge continued to captivate so many memories? You’re damn right we’re about to find out.

Named for the Italian phrase meaning “with spirit,” they’re a blend of R&B, soul and funk with an energy that might rank as one of the highest to ever hit the Plaza Bandstand.

He’s practically a new performer. “The last two years I’ve had a lot of time to just be at home and basically go on a forced woodshedding,” the downright beloved blues-rock guitarist and singer tells SFR. “What else are you going to do when you’re home all the time?” Making lemonade from lemons, Maryol says, was all about relearning to sing from the start (breath control) and getting back into a guitar-practice regimen. He’d play often before COVID-19, he says, but he wasn’t as committed to practicing in his off-time as he’d once been. That’s no longer the case, and with a bevy of new or sharpened skills under his belt, Maryol is ready to get back into
regular appearances. The timing is right, too, as Maryol’s last album, 2020’s In the Meantime, came out just before the lockdowns. He’ll have brand new songs, too, both at his solo performance this weekend at El Rey Court, and at his Plaza show later this summer with his full band. “I did a lot of writing and basically focused on new songs and getting my guitar and voice skills better,” he says of the last two years. “I wrote probably about 40 new songs—which doesn’t mean I know them, but that’s why I’m playing out: You write them, then you have to learn them. But I know I can get them to the next level.” (Alex De Vore)

COURTESY JAYE MAROLLA
With Sensei Jaye Marolla

JULY JULY 6-12, 6-12, 2022 2022 •• SFREPORTER.COM SFREPORTER.COM
[pandemic], as I thought about training again, I realized that I didn’t want to join another dojo. Throughout my time in isolation, I taught martial movement classes online. The vibe in the space where I teach now, Studio Amiel, is just so positive. Ranier Wood, the founder of the studio, is a local artist in town. Because her vibe is so positive toward women, I thought this would be the best possible place to have Women’s Dojo, because the practice is so aligned with her ethos. It just felt right.
For some, especially women, it can be difficult to walk into a male-dominated gym and bust out reps without hesitation or self-consciousness. If a smaller, more intimate environment is your vibe, there’s perhaps no better place than Jaye Marolla’s weekly class for women at Studio Amiel (9-10 am Fridays, $22, 312 Montezuma Ave., studioamiel. com). Dubbed Women’s Dojo, you can cross the threshold of body acceptance and positive workouts with the Friday morning classes and, if you’re looking for a more defined core or nimble agility skills—or just searching for a good time and even better sweat—Marolla has created a primo environment for fearfree sessions. With 10 years of martial arts training and personal experience with discomfort in more male-dominated gyms, Marolla’s cathartic and satisfying workout is for all skill levels in a safe space for women. Marolla’s website (jayemarolla.com) has more info, but you can read on for even more persuasion. (Taya Demianova)
For those who’ve never participated in this type of class before, can you tell readers a bit about what to expect from the experience? We do quite a bit of work with conditioning, jumping, calisthenics and functional movement. As we move forward with agility, we veer toward kicking and striking. We do work with mitts, but everything starts with the individual getting used to the pattern of movement as the initial building block. I want people to come in and expect to feel safe and comfortable immediately. I think male-dominated atmospheres can intimidate lots of women concerning injury, so I bring a therapeutic, holistic approach to training with my background in massage therapy. I try to create a welcoming space of invitation for anyone regardless of level and skill. Some people feel like they have to be at a certain level of conditioning or experience, and that’s really not the case with the [class]. The class is totally beginner friendly. The variety of experience actually enhances time spent at the dojo. If you have a very basic knowledge, level of fitness and will to work, we’re good. No skill is required, just excitement for a new experience.
Could you talk to us a little about the inspiration that led to your creation of Women’s Dojo? My journey started when I moved back to the States from Thailand, where I taught Thai Body Work for three years, in 2012. For 10 years, I studied Jujitsu, Aikito, Kung Fu and noticed that I learned in mostly male-dominated spaces, because that’s what it happens to be like more often in a martial context. Typically, the dojos were run by men. There is nothing super negative about that, but it just felt difficult, as a woman, to easily walk into those spaces. The energy is quite different. At this point, coming out of the COVID-19
What is the most important thing for you when designing and leading your classes? I want to make sure that the experience is empowering for the women I’m working with. My main goal is to help them feel comfortable in their body. I lead with a really strong sense of body acceptance because I think that’s the only way we can move towards transformation, by having a positive vibe about what we’re doing. Without having that opportunity for two or three years of COVID-19, I have a new appreciation for how important and healthy it can be to sweat in a room of other people.

The International Folk Art Market is back and bigger than its pre-COVID size.
Rhythm of the Night Market 2022’s International Folk Art Market brings new offerings to a Santa Fe staple BY RILEY GARDNER r i l e y @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
I
f you’ve been around these parts for a while, you’ve probably found yourself stuck in traffic related to the International Folk Art Market (IFAM). And look, we know there are a lot of markets going on in any given Santa Fe summer, but this one provides a more global offering. Santa Fe loves our Spanish and Indian Markets, no doubt, but sometimes we need to mix it up a little and add some international art into our browsing habits. Plus, after a few years of pandemic-spurred reduced and canceled everything, 2022’s Folk Art Market is returning to its original sprawling format, with some additions. “During COVID, we did focus groups to determine what the community wanted out of IFAM,” Adrienne Murray, director of marketing and community engagement for IFAM, says. “Out of the under-40 group, we found there was a big desire to make the market accessible outside of working hours and to bring in the community more.”
IFAM 2022’s most exciting addition might just be its new Night Market. Stroll under the setting sun to partake in hundreds of vendors spread across Museum Hill, and you’ll see jewelry via Kazakhstan, baskets from Namibia, textiles from Uzbekistani artists and glorious Mexican ceramics. Music from Colombian hip-hop group Kombilesa will become a centerpiece to the new element, too. Hailing from the village of San Basilio de Panenque, they perform in both Palenquero (San Basilio’s traditional language) and in Spanish, using music as a method to preserve the Palenquero language. Adding to the 48 different countries and 164 selected artists, local institutions like Paseo Pottery and the Española Valley Fiber Arts Center are slated to host demonstrations in pottery and textiles, respectively. Tumbleroot Brewery & Distillery is also scheduled to appear with various cocktails and beers, plus Wisefool New Mexico is bringing circus acts into the fray and you’ll find food trucks such as Jambo Café, RaagaGo and Platero Fry Bread & Navajo Tacos. “This whole thing is almost entirely volunteer-led [with] people who are working as cashiers or even as translators,” Murray continues. “We’re so incredibly grateful to them. We’ve had people who’ve been volunteering yearly since [the market] started.” The International Folk Art Market was founded in 2004, and this year, the staff is expecting roughly 16,000 visitors—a pretty big step up from last year’s mid-COVID 9,000. Since its start, market staff estimates, artists have earned somewhere in the neighborhood of $34 million. Pro tip? Park at the Midtown Campus and take the free shuttle over to Museum Hill.

hortly before setting out to the Santa Fe Opera’s opening night July 1, I rewatched a short clip from August 2018 of the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg receiving a standing ovation as she walked to her seat at the opera. I wasn’t searching for proof of better days—social media offered up the post for undetermined algorithmic reasons—but it underscored the recent dire shift in personal and national politics. Gloom—as an ambiance—suffused opening night to some degree, as the rain fell, the cloud cover masked the sunset and temperatures dipped to an end-of-summer chilliness. All this worked well with this year’s production of Carmen, which eschews the typical interpretation of Georges Bizet’s tragic opera. Based on the novella by Prosper Mérimée, the opera Carmen premiered in Paris in 1875 and at the Santa Fe Opera in 1961. It was last mounted here in 2014, in a production a reviewer for this paper described as “splashy” and “hyper-energetic,” concluding the show provided ample “eye-candy,” but was ultimately shallow. Making her debut at SFO this season, French director Mariame Clément has taken a decidedly different approach. In press materials accompanying the production, Clément notes the “usual preconception” regarding Carmen is “that it’s a joyful, colorful piece.” In fact, she says, it’s “actually a very dark piece in many respects.” Indeed. Carmen (mezzo-soprano Isabel Leonard), the opera’s titular character, is a seductive
SFO’s Carmen re-centers the opera with its title character
CURTIS BROWN FOR THE SANTA FE OPERA
Fighting Chance
In one of many new concepts for this year’s production of Carmen, a little girl, played by Isla Burdette, appears alongside Carmen, played by Isabel Leonard.
Romani woman who works at a cigarette factory, employs her charms on both Don José, a corporal (played by tenor Matthew White in July in his SFO debut; and Michael Fabiano in August), and toreador Escamillo (bass-baritone Michael Sumuel in his terrific SFO debut). As a result, Carmen seals her fate as foretold in the cards and dies when Don José stabs her at the opera’s conclusion. The setting—a desolate amusement park, complete with a headless carousel horse—is intended, Clément says, to represent “a mental landscape for Carmen, or a metaphor of her life. You always hear that Carmen is free and the piece is a celebration of freedom. I beg to differ. Yes, she’s free to die in the end. So, it’s a very limited kind of freedom, an illusion of freedom, just like the freedom you experience within the
gates of an amusement park.” If this makes for a headier Carmen than one might expect, Leonard carries the weight, minus the usual flamboyant costuming. This Carmen is subject, not object, and far removed from the novella’s character, whose introduction prompts the narrator to expound upon both her beauty and his larger theory of how to rank a woman’s attractiveness. Instead, scenic and costume designer Julia Hansen dons Carmen in contemporary clothes (jeans). Similarly, Micaëla, the young woman who loves Don José, sports overalls. Soprano Sylvia D’Eramo, a former SFO apprentice, in that role, sings beautifully, making this season’s Carmen a tremendous showcase for powerful female performers. Leonard, a three-time Grammy winner, comes to SFO’s Carmen from debuting the
role last spring at the Washington National Opera. In SFO’s podcast series, Destination Santa Fe Opera, Leonard spoke about the rewards and challenges of taking on iconic roles and sifting through the pre-existing source materials and perceptions that can accompany such parts. That’s particularly the case, she said, when it comes to the role of Carmen. “Of all of the well-known characters, she is somebody that I find that people have a lot of opinions about,” Leonard said. “People sort of take this strangely possessive attitude about who she is…and it’s something we often do in many different societies and cultures in regard to strong women. We start imposing our thoughts on them because we don’t know how to control them.” Carmen doesn’t escape her fate—the violent Don José takes her life. But the production does signal toward a better tomorrow. Director Clément includes a young girl “who we hope could break the cycle of violence” in which Carmen is caught (Isla Burdette, in her debut, daughter of Kevin Burdette, currently appearing in SFO’s The Barber of Seville. SFO tells me Isla was, in fact, born in Santa Fe during her dad’s run in SFO’s production of Cold Mountain during the summer of 2015). Who is that little girl? Carmen in the past? Carmen in the future? All of us? This year’s production provides no easy answers, just beautiful music and plenty about which to ruminate.

n his prelude talk for the July 2 opening night of The Barber of Seville, opera lecturer Oliver Prezant began by asking attendees how many times they had seen Gioachino Rossini’s opera: One? Two? Six? Widely regarded as one of the most popular operas of all time, Rossini’s opera buffa—comic opera—has been in near constant rotation since its rocky premiere in 1816. But even those who have not seen The Barber of Seville before will recognize much of its music from popular culture, such as the aria “Largo al factotum” in a Tom & Jerry cartoon and the 1950s-era, “Bugs Bunny at the Symphony II: ‘Rabbit of Seville.’” The overture appears in numerous films and even makes its way onto a Seinfeld episode (“The Barber,” naturally). For this production, to quote Prezant again, “fun is the watchword.” From start to finish, the inventive use of set and costumes; the skill and energy of the ensemble cast; and a high-octane orchestra under the direction of conductor Iván López-Reynoso, making a fantastic US debut, coalesce into three fast-moving hours of two acts filled with hilarity and extraordinary performances. A little back story: The Barber of Seville is the first of three plays written in 1775 by French author/watchmaker/spy PierreAugustin Caron de Beaumarchais concerning Figaro, all of which were adopted into operas (SFO’s 2021 season included Mozart’s The Marriage of Figaro; the third, The Guilty Mother, by composer Darius Milhaud, from the late 1960s gets a lot less play). In The Barber of Seville, Count Almaviva (tenor and former SFO apprentice Jack Swanson) sees a beautiful girl, Rosina (soprano and former SFO apprentice Emily Fons),

SFO’s The Barber of Seville delivers laughter and beautiful music from start to finish
The fun never stops in this year’s production of The Barber of Seville, thanks to its incredible ensemble: Emily Fons (Rosina), Kevin Burdette (Dr. Bartolo), Jack Swanson (Count Almaviva), Murrella Parton (Berta), Joshua Hopkins (Figaro), Nicholas Newton (Don Basilio).
disguises himself as a student (he wants to be loved for himself ) and follows her to Seville. There he meets up with his former valet Figaro (baritone Joshua Hopkins), a barber in town, who tells him Rosina is the ward of grouchy old Doctor Bartolo (bass Kevin Burdette). From there, Almaviva asks Figaro to help him entreat Rosina away from Bartolo, who controls her movements and wants to marry her as well. Figaro’s help involves a series of increasingly farcical scenarios. Almaviva also ends up posing as a soldier and a music teacher. The lies—from all the characters—mount. It’s a comedy, so they are all resolved in the end. In the meantime, bel canto reigns supreme, with every manner of embellishment throughout.
Scenic and Costume Designer Andrew D. Edwards, in his SFO debut, matches the opera’s wit with his own. Anachronistic touches add to the show’s hilarity, such as when imitating a student, Swanson wears a University of Sevilla hoodie. Other props include cell phones, a vacuum cleaner and headphones. The set itself features a topiary mustache and a bust of Rossini whose eyes and mouth serve as windows and the front door. There’s a lot of fun with wigs. There’s a mariachi kickline. There’s a bubble machine. Director Stephen Barlow and his cast should take credit for much of the production’s uproariousness. Individually, and as a group, the performers utilize precise comic timing in a highly physical show. That goes for Swanson, Fons, Hopkins and Burdette,
OPERA
along with former SFO apprentice bass-baritone Nicholas Newton as Don Basilio (Ryan Speedo Green will perform the role for most of August in his SFO debut) and soprano/SFO apprentice Murrella Parton as a maid in the Bartolo home. Speaking on the SFO’s Destination Santa Fe opera podcast, former SFO apprentices Swanson and Fons talked about their deep experience playing these roles before, but also the incredible importance of the ensemble dynamic. “You have to put so much trust in your colleagues to help you pull off these comic moments,” Fons said. “It’s so much not about you anymore.” Rather, individual performers, she says, “set aside” their egos “to build this really amazing ensemble show so that the audience hopefully just gets enthralled and caught up in the comedy and the ensemble aspect of it.” That was certainly the case for opening night, although truth be told Burdette is a bit of a scene stealer and an incredible physical actor who appears, at time, to be made of rubber. He sings one aria while performing yoga. Whether this is your first or your sixth time seeing The Barber of Seville, don’t miss this production. There’s plenty of other fun to be had at the opera as it kicks off its 65th season and first full post-pandemic season, with five operas running through Aug. 27.

Most folks take for granted their access to journalism, and notably somewhere in there, the local press. In a new documentary from Jesus Camp directors Heidi Ewing and Rachel Grady, however, a global picture emerges of an industry and, in some places, constitutional right under fire, both at home and abroad. The Ronan Farrow-produced Endangered opens brief but poignant windows into the work of journalists in America, Brazil and Mexico, three countries with governments that ostensibly tout freedom while bandying about terms like “fake news” and “enemy of the people” when it comes to the press. In the end, Ewing and Grady show a tragically declining line of work across multiple scopes, which we know will ultimately hurt communities—but the sad truth is that there might not be satisfying answers. The press is dying, friends, and that should alarm everyone. In Brazil, Jair Bolsonaro watchdog Patrícia Campos Mello of the paper Folho de São Paolo faces lawsuits and a steady stream of misogynistic memes while back in America, Guardian journo Oliver Laughland, a British ex-pat, follows Trump on the 2020 campaign trail while simultaneously covering Youngstown, Ohio—America’s largest city without a

+ THE MUSIC; THE HISTORY; THE JOYOUSNESS
- FEELS SHORT
Author and journalist Jason Berry has certainly not been coy about his love for the city of New Orleans, or the cultural and musical traditions that hail from the fabled Louisiana metropolis. Berry was pretty clear about it in his 2018 book City of a Million Dreams, and he keeps the love going in his new documentary film of the same name. It’s a movie of jazz funerals, second lines, roof dancing and swamp dwelling; of shootings and costumes and death, but ultimately of life and the living. In a nutshell, Dreams occupies a dreamlike space that encapsulates a world henceforth not known well to outsiders. Here now, maybe for the first time—or at least the most comprehensive time—we get glimpses into the inner workings of benevolent Black societies, the histories that converged to make New Orleans and its jazz funerals what they are and the people who work them, attend them, facilitate them or otherwise toil in a seemingly never-ending effort to keep the culture surrounding death alive. As one interviewee puts it in the film, the funeral is the last thing you’re ever going to do for somebody. Why not send them out with a bang? Through interviews, narrative snippets and what was likely hundreds of hours of footage, Berry begins to unearth the trajectory of the jazz funeral and its so-called second line, that dizzying party that takes to the streets with a band to lead the deceased to their final resting place. Dreams taps into everything

single community paper. Miami Herald photog Carl Juste shoots protests that flared up following the 2020 police murder of George Floyd and, later, the January 6 insurrection, while Mexican photographer Sáshenka Gutiérrez of Agenica EFE finds herself documenting COVID-19 in Mexico City at a time her government was denying any serious fallout from the deadly virus. She even winds up getting tear gassed while covering a women’s rights protest turned immediately violent by riot cops. And so it goes, which really ought to fire viewers up, though one can’t help but think that most care less and less for journalism. As a midwest woman says to Laughland in the doc, some people just aren’t going to read papers that don’t fully adhere to their views. That’s frustrating enough, but tack on how the job can be dangerous...each reporter says
from slavery and the 1804 Haitian revolt that would ultimately play such a massive role in the shaping of Louisiana culture. Elsewhere, the film intersperses sobering meditations on Hurricane Katrina, artist retreat songwriting sessions and the keepers of history. What emerges is a fascinating portrait of a city and her people, of a culture that regards death not as some specter of finality, but as a waypoint in a journey. Berry himself comes to the Center for Contemporary Arts on Thursday, July 7 for a one-off screening of the film and to engage in conversation with the audience.

+ TENSE; WELL DIRECTED - THEMES LACK DEVELOPMENT
Set during a single school day at an idyllic Christian school outside Beruit, 1982 follows an average day as the Lebanese Civil War rages on, much to the children’s disinterest. Eleven-year-old Wissam (Mohamad Dalli) writes a secret note to his crush Joanna (Gia Madi) while teacher Yesmine (a show-stealing Nadine Labaki) struggles knowing her family is on the way to the front lines, but tries to hold it together for the children’s sake. When the Israeli army invades the country in the mid-afternoon, the school evacuates, leaving Wissam one last chance to tell Joanna how he feels lest he never see her again.
as much, then they jump back into the fray. That does feel heroic, though Endangered doesn’t give a deep enough view into any of its subjects’ work as to feel truly meaningful. It comes across almost like a documentary for other journalists to scream “Yeah!” at, a sort of liberal-leaning told-ya-so sort of thing that very likely will not change minds. Most folks know the demeaning ways the public views journalists, this isn’t new. But if the point of this doc is to make a case for people to subscribe, donate or otherwise engage with multiple sources of local and national media, the argument doesn’t feel strong enough.
Elementary school scenes might sound jarring when set against fighter jets darting through the sky, but writer/director Oualid Mouaness balances the innocuous nature of playground politics with the omnipresent threat of death. 1982 subscribes to the old Hitchcock ethos about a bomb under a table being the key to tension. Its eerie wide shots play on the audience’s expectations that bombs are going to blow any second, but the students are experiencing love for the first time; nearby battleships can’t match the energy. Despite an underdeveloped animated element, 1982 feels like Gus Van Sant’s Elephant—where the world outside the safety of school walls looms so large and ominous. Its sweet nature is the point: Coming of age isn’t a process that can be disrupted, and in many ways how a child comes of age is an example of the country itself. Mouaness offers Western viewers a glimpse at a country long-ignored in contemporary culture. 1982 is a wonderful introduction to Lebanon’s rich film industry.

Ah, the biopic—a genre we know too well.

star’s longtime manager and manipulator. Upon discovering the soon-to-be legend (played here by Austin Butler), Parker spends decades pulling his strings. For his part, poor little Elvis wants nothing more than to be authentic, but, like clockwork, his well-known demise catches up with him. If you know Lurhmann, you know the definition of bombastic. The Australian filmmaker is one of the few remaining capital-A auteurs left in popular cinema. Here, as he does, find him using anachronistic tunes in period settings (mash-ups of Britney Spears and Backstreet Boys, for example), swirling camera movements and themes prodding American pomposity. Given how this worked in 2013’s Great Gatsby—and I’m in the camp who thinks that film is criminally underrated—it’s surprising Luhrmann can’t fully form his ideas with Elvis. You can practically feel how tempted Luhrmann was to explore the pop culture world that made Elvis, rather than the singer himself, and it would have really been something had he gone all out on that. Sadly, though, Luhrmann can’t swim out of the current that pulls him back towards typical filmic melodrama. Why sacrifice the narrative that poverty, racial oppression and capitalist exploitation led to Elvis and instead feed us something about his success having been forged on talent alone? Why dive headlong into the expected fall-from-grace arc? It’s a shame a film promising to be so fresh devolves as it does. Even still, it’s damn entertaining, and Butler’s dedication makes it a worthy watch. Elvis might be low-tier Lurhmann, but low-tier Lurhmann is still a decent high-energy outing for those who enjoy these typical tales. (RG) Violet Crown, Regal, PG-13, 159 min

Week of July 6th
ARIES (March 21-April 19): My readers and I have collaborated to provide insights and inspirations about the topic “How to Be an Aries.” Below is an amalgam of my thoughts and theirs—advice that will especially apply to your life in the coming days. 1. If it’s easy, it’s boring. —Beth Prouty. 2. If it isn’t challenging, do something else. —Jennifer Blackmon Guevara. 3. Be confident of your ability to gather the energy to get unstuck, to instigate, to rouse—for others as well as yourself. 4. You are a great initiator of ideas and you are also willing to let go of them in their pure and perfect forms so as to help them come to fruition. 5. When people don’t get things done fast enough for you, be ready and able to DO IT YOURSELF.
who you’re not, at least for now. You’re ready to begin an era of finding out much, much more about who you are. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You need the following experiences at least once every other day during the next 15 days: a rapturous burst of unexpected grace; a gentle eruption of your strong willpower; an encounter with inspiration that propels you to make some practical improvement in your life; a brave adjustment in your understanding of how the world works; a sacrifice of an OK thing that gives you more time and energy to cultivate a really good thing.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): This might sound like an unusual assignment, but I swear it’s based on two unimTAURUS (April 20-May 20): I know three people who peachable sources: research by scientists and my many have told me, “I don’t like needing anyone for anything.” years of analyzing astrological data.

They imagine they can live time watching and listening to wild birds. Place yourself without the help or support of other humans. I don’t in locations where many birds fly and perch.

I bring this up, Taurus, because now is an SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): In accordance with excellent time for you to celebrate your own neediness. current astrological omens, I have four related suggesBe wildly grateful for all the things you need and all the tions for you. 1.

Live a dangerous life in your daydreams but not in house keys. real life. Don’t be everyone’s messenger, but be the messenger for as many people as is fun for you. If you have CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): If you ever wanted to use the Urdu language to advance your agendas for love turned out to be the kind of Gemini who is both saintly and satanic, remember that God made you that way—so and romance, here’s a list of endearments you could use: 1 jaan-e-man (heart’s beloved); 2. humraaz let God worry about it.

You probably can’t match Jordan’s AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Author John Berger plenitude, but do your best. Why? The astrological described birch trees as “pliant” and “slender.” He said omens suggest three reasons: 1. The world will seem that “if they promise a kind of permanence, it has nothfunnier to you than it has in a long time. 2.

It’s in the interests of everyone you know to linden—but only with the fact that they seed and spread have routines interrupted and disrupted by amusement, quickly. They are ephemeral and recurring—like a conversation between earth and sky.” I propose we regard delight, and hilarity. the birch tree as your personal power symbol in the LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): In accordance with the astrologicoming months.
