Daniel Arnold's new book, "Snowblind: Stories of Alpine Obsession," is a fictional short story collection of what he calls "old-fashioned adventure tales."

"It's in the same vein of Jack London,but with modern characters and climbs," Arnold said from his Sonora home.

Indeed, the 271-page book features eight compelling stories — with titles such as "Dead Till Proven Otherwise,""No Place for Vagabonds" and "The Skin of the World" — that are filled with adrenaline and adventure.

Arnold, 35, said the stories in "Snowblind" are based more from imagination than real life.

Typically, he said, there is a real-life "seed," or idea, that is incorporated into his stories.

For example, one of the "Snowblind" tales — this one set in Alaska, about a "hardcore loner who depends only on herself" — was actually inspired by an encounter Arnold had with a bear in Yosemite National Park.

"That's one of my favorites in the book," he said. "It has a prettyhard edge to it."

"After more than a dozen years, we enjoy seeing returning faces for the show," Smith said.

"And every year we see new people laughing, smiling and crying in the audience. Storytelling is felton a very personal level."

Smith has been on the local storytell ing scene since 1974, telling tales mostly for families and children in her early years. In 1987, she welcomed Robersonto the localtellers' cadre when he took over her weekly Pinecrest Amphitheatre programs for the Stanislaus National Forest.

Then in 1995 Smith and Restivobegan performing as "The Story Quilters,n which grew to become one ofCa lifornia's premier tandem storytelling

"We have all enjoyed telling stories together throughout these many years," Restivo said.

Restivo came to storytelling by way of theatre after touring Europe as an actor with The International Theatre. Since 2005, she has been the resident storytell ing-theatre arts teacher forSan Joaquin County Aspire Charter Schools.

She isalso a lead teacher for The California Arts Project in the Art of Storytelling.

Roberson is known for his many years as a kindergarten teacher at Sierra Waldorf School in Jamestown. He currently servesas the school'senrollment director. The school draws on storytelling as part of its curriculum.

In 2011, Smith received the National Storytelling Network's OracleAward for "service and

Since then, Roberson released a second solo CD. Then in 2013, he and Restivo collaborated on another awardwinning CD called "Blackberry Love," a collection of folktales, original stories and songs.

This year Restivo released her first book, "Hanging On: The Great Depression Through a Child's Eyes."

Additionally, Smith will soon release a new recording called "Striking Up Gold Mountain: Stories and Songs of California's Gold Rush Era." Working with her is musician and ukulele talent Peg Reza, as well as a handful of guest musicians.

"All three of us have a real commitment to the work of storytelling and its impact on individuals and communities," Restivo said.

The "For Adult Ears Only"

series is a natural fit for its two sponsoring groups, both of whom are actively involved in community literacy work. Delta Kappa Gamma was founded in 1929, and is an honor society of more than 150,000 women educators in 14 countries. DKG pro-

motes professional and personal growth of women educators and excellence in education.

As a service to the commu-

nity, Tuolumne County's Iota Epsilon Chapter sponsors "The Read to Me Program," which gives local newborn babies their first book, and provides parents with important information on early literacy.

The Mother Lode Storytelling Guild, now in its fifth year, is affiliated with the National Storytelling Network.

THEATER REVIEW

'Mary Poppins' brings magic to the Mother Lode

By PATRICIA HARRELSON For The Union Democrat

Making magic is what Sierra Repertory Theatre aims to do, especiallyfor the season opener, so the county has been abuzz

about "MaryPoppins" for weeks with parents and grandparents eagerly anticipating taking youngsters to this enchanting spectaclecrafted for the entire family.

Scale is not necessarily an indicator of quality in theater, but anextraordinary amount of expertise is visible on the East Sonora stage during this production: delightful magic, people and kites flying, and hugely exciting choreography.

Director Scott Viets engineers the complicated staging demanded by a script that was adapted by Julian Fellowes.

What makes the musical interesting and different from the Disney movie is the way Fellowes focuses on the dilemmas of the Banks family into which drops Mary Poppins.

As her creator, P.L Travers,

understood, the relationship between ananny and the family she servesiscomplicated, and therein lies the grist for this story.

M egan Buzzard's portrayal of Mary Poppins is prim, practically egotistical, and absolutely perfect.

Poppins briskly instructs the Banks children on manners and kindness and leads them on a series of supernatural adventures.

Buzzard is a master of exquisitely-timed sassy retorts, sweetly adorned with a wise affectionate demeanor. The constancy of Buzzard's charm secures hercharacter's position

as the heart of the show.

Equally charming is Dan Reardon as Bert, the shows other majorasset.Bert serves

as ringmaster of the action, and while the relationship between the chimney sweep and Poppins is left to the imagination, their magical collusion is perfectly clear.

Reardon portrays a fully realized character who encour-

ages the audience's suspension of disbelief with warmth and charisma.

While Mary and Bert deliver soaring magic in song and stage presence, the Banks couple provides the mire from which the family must be lifted.

James Andrew Walsh portrays Mr. Banks, a character whose emotions spill wide and deep: anger, hardheartedness, shame,

anxiety, compassion, and love.

Walsh creates a highly sympathetic character, as Julian Fellowes no doubt intended when he adapted the movie script.

It's not too much of a stretch to imagine George Banks and his wife Winifred, played by Lauren Roesner, as precursors

"Mary Poppins" plays at SRT's East Sonora theater through May 3.

to Robertand Cora Crawley in Fellowes highly acclaimed series Downtown Abbey.

Like Cora Crawely, Winifred soothes the ruffled edges ofher husband's misplaced priorities.

Roesner is gracious and accommodating, gliding back and forth

across the stage to appease husband, children, and servants, ignoring her character's own needs, as women were wont to do in Edwardian London.

Both Walsh and Rosener are first-rate vocalists who actualize convincing transformations

over the course of the show.

Two local youngsters, Kara Tangenberg and Joseph Fitzgerald, play the Banks children, Jane and Michael.

Kudos to both for holding their own on a stage full of professional actors.

Tangenberg'ssass is formidable and Fitzgerald's longing for his father's attention is genuine.

On stage for nearly the entire

show, these young people hold true to their characters while expertly singing and dancing.

While there is much to smile about in Mary Poppins, Mrs. Brill (Samantha Wynn Greenstone) and her side-kick Robertson Ay (David Artavia) amp up the giggles ten-fold. In true slapstick form, the two are experts at physical comedy and keep the laughs coming even when they are in the background of a scene.

Ashley Harrell assumes another kind of pairing with her portrayal of two contrasting roles, the Bird Woman, whose lesson about care and generosityisthe essentialmessage of the show, and Miss Andrews, the wholly terror of a nanny, who is antithetical to both the Bird Woman and Mary Poppins.

Harrell proves herself an accomplished character actor.

Ty Smith adds his usual flair for droll comedy playing a trio of roles: Admiral Boom, the Park Keeper and the Bank Chairman.

And then there is the ensemble. Though named last, these are the actors who provide the ecstatic energy in the program.

The choreography of a passel of production numbers designed

by Marcus S. Daniel pushes this production over the top to a frenzy of joyous abandon.

The hand-jive antics of "Su-

M egan Buzzard and Dan Reardon, who play Mary and Bert,are equally charming in Sierra Repertory Theatre's "Mary Poppins." percalifragilisticexpialidocious" and the facile tap-dancing of "Step in Time" are both contagious with glee.

SRT repeatedly awes audiences with the ability to produce an inspiring visual impact in a relatively small venue.

With "Mary Poppins" they've succeedagain.Special effects are eye-catching and enchanting, for example when Mary pulls a hat rack, lamp, mirror, and tea set from her seemingly normal carpet bag.

Set design captures the full sweep of London settings.

Scenes shift fluidly from the Banks parlor to the children's nursery to the park to the smoking London rooftops. The flight of colorful kites over the audi-

ence causes a rush of astonishment.

And of course, Mary must open her umbrella and sail skyward. Suffice it to say, the production team is as marvelous as the actors.

While the eyes are feasting on evocativesets,marvelous

special effects, and dazzling, colorfulcostumes, the ears are reveling in song: Chim-chim Cher-ee," "A Spoonful of Sugar" and "Feed the Birds."

This production has a big heartthat delivers a spectacle as wondrous as any Broadway show tothe good people ofthe Mother Lode. Don't miss it.

"Mary Poppins" plays through May 3 at SRT in East Sonora.

cess from Latin America, particularly Cuba and Puerto Rico.

Yemaya dancers will showcase their skills as well as bring the audience to Cuba, Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, and to the Big Apple through their innovativeyet traditional dance form.

RIIRI.ESQIIE

By MIKE MORRIS The Union Democrat

Sonora-based burlesque troupe Kountry Kittens are

leaving the country — North America that is.

The trioplans to depart Tuesday to perform 24 shows in 26 nights throughout Germany, France, Belgium and the Netherlands. Venues they'll be performing at include nightclubs, pubs, theaters and festivals.

Anni Morgan, the group's founder, called the tour "a big step for us."

"This is our first tour longer

than four days," she said. "Usually, we're just in California and we've done some Nevada along with shows in Wisconsin and Iowa."

Founded by Morgan about six years ago, Kountry Kittens Burlesque consists of Sonora resident Morgan — who goes by "Anni Boelyn" — and Copperopolis resident Natalie Morse as "Pollie Urathane." Rounding out the trio is Ashleigh Keller, a former Tuolumne County resident

who now lives in Santa Cruz, who goes by the stage name "Gurdy Leigh."

Kountry Kittens Burlesque is billed as the "ultimate collaboration instriptease, comedy and

the underground roots revival."

Morgan described their show as having a "country carnival" feel to it.

In Europe, the women will be joined by Sonora-based singersongwriters "Girlbrains" along with a musician named "Fishgutzzz."

The group plans to document their trip, including filming a DVD and maintaining a blog at kountrykittens.tumblr.com.

After their European tour wraps in early April, the Kountry Kittens have gigs in Auburn and Fresno that month, while Reno is slated for June.

Morgan joked there's more of a market for burlesque in Europe than the Mother Lode, although they do have gigs scheduled for later this year in AngelsCamp and Tuolumne.

Previous shows in the foothills have included the Gypsy Shack

in Jamestown andEagle Tavern in Twain Harte.

Morgan said their risque show is about empowerment, not sex.

"It's a comedy show, but we do takesome of our clothes off," she said. "There's the striptease element, but it does help tell the story we're telling."

"It is not a stripper show at all," she continued. "Our main goal is to make people feelgood about themselves, be comfortable in their own skin, not take themselvesso seriously."

An example of one of their new parodiesis a "W izard ofOz " themed skit in which Morgan plays Dorothy.

"There's the Good Witch and the Bad Witch, and it's basically an epicbattle over (Dorothy's) shoes," she said.

While the women "usually end up in vintage lingerie," they remain at least minimally covered, Morgan said.

"It's really important to us there's a storyline," she said.

"There's a reason the clothes come off."

' now in 'aco e iono s o sories Continuedfrom Page 3 America.

He earned a degree in philosophy from Stanford University, where he met his wife.

In 2010,they moved to Sonora, drawn to the area because of its proximity to Yosemite.

Arnold's wife, Ashley Laird, is an emergency physician at Sonora Regional Medical Center.

Earlier this week, the couple's 4-year-old son, Sage, was playing with their backyard chickens and running among their

newly-planted fruit trees.

Aside from Yosemite, Arnold

likes to climb nearby at Table Mountain in the Jamestown area, and the boulders near Columbia State Historic Park and Columbia College.

Arnold said the recent interest generated by two climbers who completeda 19-day free climb of the 3,000-foot Dawn Wall on Yosemite's El Capitan illustrates how climbing is becoming more mainstream.

"They put in so many years of hard work, they deserve the recognition," Arnold said of climbers Tommy Caldwell and Kevin Jorgeson.

Arnold is about to embark on

+

$v

a new adventure of his own — a

book-signing tour.

The tour begins Monday at Stanford, followed by stops in Reno,Sacramento, San Rafael, Portland and San Jose.

"I'd love to do a local one," he sard.

Arnold said all major online retailers, such as Amazon.com, are now selling the book.

Mountain Bookshop, at The Junction shopping center in East Sonora, also plans to carry the book.

"Snowblind: Stories of Alpine Obsession" is published by Berkeley-based Counterpoint Press.

Arnold's work has also appeard in various magazines, including "Rock and Ice" and "Alpinist."

To help raise that awareness, Cherry has created an informational brochure which will be available during the time the paintings are being shown. It in-

about sea turtles, their environments, habitats and their current status.

Primarily a studio painter, Cherry is continually inspired by the ever changing and inspiring landscapes of California — its people, terrain and colors.

Some of her recent works have developed into more emotionally and subjective approaches.

A lifelong resident of California, her works have been called "impressionistic, spiritual and contemporary."

Working in both water color and oil, Cherry focuses on California landscapes and"non-objective interior landscapes."

"It has been a pleasure to work with Patti getting ready for this show. She's been a longtime supporter of the Arts Alliance," said Connie O'Connor, executive director of the TCAA. "Her paintings always seem to tell a story and often are ones that you might not otherwise be introduced to in which to share the experience."

Four Northern California assemblymen have introduced a bill that would appropriate money for the purchase. If Assembly Bill 2435 passes, the state would buy Railtown's 26 acres of land and buildings in Jamestown.

Dan Pastorini, choice member of the nation's current crop of quarterbacks, was acclaimed with affect ion as well as respect after addressing a hometown throng of 70 in his parents' restaurant on Highway 49. Pastorini played for Sonora in his freshman year, then transferred to Bellarmine Prep in San Jose and later Santa Clara University. He is now completing his senior year at Santa Clara, after which he will go to Texas to finalize negotiations with the Huston Oilers.

Last night's gathering was sponsored by the Sonora Rotary club. Tonight Pastorini will speak toanother hometown au-

A strong family relationship was evident when he spoke of his parents, who listened from the adjoining bar, and when

he spoke ofhis older brother, Butch, now a Santa Clara coach.
