TUESDAY, AUGUST 22 AT THE LITTLE THEATRE CAFÉ

WHAT DO YOU GET WHEN YOU COMBINE TWO GREAT THINGS, CRAFT BEER AND SINGING? BEER CHOIR!

Beer Choir was founded in 2015 by composer and craft beer enthusiast, Michael Engelhardt. The idea is simple. We sing while drinking beer. The physical and emotional benefits of singing are overwhelming. And we get a chance to appreciate the brewers who are, in fact, creative artists themselves. The first Flower City Beer Choir will be held on Tuesday, August 22 at the Little Theatre Café, starting at 7:00 pm. We’ll offer craft beers from Rohrbach’s and several other local craft brewers. And we’ll sing some fun songs from the Beer Choir “hymnal” led by Master of Ceremonies Dan McInerney and The Flower City Beer Band – Bill Dresnack, John Curry, and Brenda and Don Tremblay. WXXI’s Julia Figueras, Mona Seghatoleslami, Ruth Phinney and Jeanne Fisher will be on hand to host the festivities.

PLEASE JOIN US ON AUGUST 22 TO HAVE A FEW BEERS, A LOT OF LAUGHS & SING TOGETHER JUST FOR THE FUN OF IT!

AUGUST’S MEMBERCARD PLUS BENEFIT

BAY CREEK PADDLING CENTER

DEAR FRIENDS, The sweeping and powerful documentary, The Vietnam War, which is being referred to as Ken Burns’ most ambitious film, premieres next month on WXXI-TV. In anticipation of the series, WXXI has partnered with local organizations to host outreach events to engage our community Norm Silverstein in a conversation about what happened during the Vietnam War. In July, MuCCC Theater hosted a week of readings, reenactments, and a preview screening of the series. This month, WXXI will air a special Connections with Evan Dawson broadcast from the Little Theatre on August 24 (see the AM 1370 page for details), and in September the Central Library will host an event focused on preservation of the local history and perspectives of the Vietnam War. Ken Burns co-produced The Vietnam War with Lynn Novick, and the two filmmakers recently sat down with the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund to talk about the making of the documentary. A few of the questions and answers follow: Q: Why was it important for you to tell the story of Vietnam? Ken: I think the Vietnam War is arguably the most important event of the second half of the 20th century. It’s a defining moment. Q: How do you tell the story of the most divisive period within our nation during the 20th century? Lynn: One of the tragedies of the Vietnam War is that America got involved in a conflict in a country far away that we didn’t really understand. We didn’t understand our allies or our enemies. We as filmmakers did not want to make that same mistake. I spent a lot of time in Vietnam getting to know people who lived through the war there and hearing from civilians and soldiers, and also speaking to Vietnamese-Americans who fled Vietnam after the war. Q: Why does Vietnam still matter? Ken: Just think about it. You want to understand WikiLeaks? Let’s go back to the Pentagon papers. You want to understand about meddling in foreign affairs, about political parties reaching out to foreign powers? That’s in the story of Vietnam. You want to find out about the disconnect between the generals who make the plans and the service members who do the fighting and dying? Vietnam reveals this. To understand Vietnam is to arm yourself in the best sort of way for how to deal with our present incredibly fraught moments. It couldn’t be more relevant than it is today. Q: What did you learn from making this film? Lynn: One thing that I learned that I will carry with me is that history is a lot more complicated than we give it credit for. There is no story that I’ve tried to tell that is more complicated than this. With any one aspect that we tried to tell – there were at least three points of view or more. It was a constant exercise in compassion. It’s important to be open to considering that things are not as simple as they seem. We look forward to this new series and will use it as a catalyst to update and share the resources that WXXI’s Veterans Connections website provides. Our goal is to identify the most pressing needs and issues facing veterans in our region and to develop ways that WXXI programming and outreach can help address those needs.

NEWS&EVENTS

Q&A WITH A WXXI UNDERWRITER In 2016, GEVA THEATRE CENTER named Christopher Mannelli Executive Director. Christopher joins the iconic Geva Theatre from Victory Gardens Theater in Chicago and previously held leadership roles at Chicago Shakespeare Theater and HotCity Theatre in St. Louis. WXXI catches up with Chris as Geva looks toward the start of its 45th season. Q.

Q. Can you tell us about your professional history in a nutshell? I began my career as an actor/musician and toured nationally and internationally for 10 years; my very first professional acting job was at Geva in the late ‘90s. After touring, I transitioned my focus to the administrative side of theater organizations.

Q. How does Rochester compare to Chicago? Rochester has a rich tapestry of incredible arts institutions and a community that loves them. So, there is great similarity in this regard between the two cities. There is also a warmth and friendliness of the people of Rochester that is very much like what you experience in the Midwest. Rochester wins on less traffic, and although there’s more snow, the weather is a bit milder here. While I do like white hots quite a bit, I think a Chicago hot dog still has the edge! Q. Top three favorite things about Rochester (yes, just three). Go! Our family enjoys being so close to all the natural beauty of the region, especially the Finger Lakes and state parks. We’ve made some terrific friends already and love our new community in Brighton. We’re also taking advantage of the cultural offerings in regard to the arts and museums! Q. Which shows would you name as the most memorable - either as a performer or spectator? Two years ago I saw the most arresting production of Arthur Miller’s A View from the Bridge produced by the Young Vic. It was an incredibly resonant production. Q. Grab the book nearest to you. What is it? A blank journal. I always keep one around to capture ideas and thoughts. Q. Dream role? I was fortunate enough to get to play the role of Tobias in Sweeney Todd back in my undergrad days at Geneseo – it was always my favorite. Geva Theatre Center CHRISTOPHER MANNELLI, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

TVHIGHLIGHTS

A Royal Tuesday TUESDAY, AUGUST 22 AT 8PM ON WXXI-TV

Join us for a royal line-up of programming you won’t want to miss. We’ll kick off the evening at 8 p.m. with Diana. It’s been twenty years since Princess Diana was killed in a car crash, however her story remains incomplete. This new film is full of fresh material, including new statements from Diana’s bodyguard Ken Wharfe, and her Private Secretary Patrick Jephson. The emotional power of her story may have ebbed, but in 2017 while the importance of her story for us as a nation may have changed focus, it will be as significant as ever. Then at 9 p.m., stay tuned for a unique celebration of the Queen’s ninety years. Filmmaker John Bridcut was granted special access to the complete collection of Her Majesty’s personal cine films, shot by the Duke of Edinburgh and the Queen herself, as well as by King George VI and Queen Elizabeth, The Queen Mother. Much of it has never been seen publicly before. Various members of the Royal Family are filmed watching this private footage and contributing their own personal insights and their memories of the woman they know both as a member of their own close family and as queen.

The Vietnam War is a 10 part, 18-hour documentary film series directed by Ken Burns and Lynn Novick. An immersive 360-degree narrative, the series tells the epic story of the Vietnam War as it has never before been told on film. It features testimony from nearly 80 witnesses, including many Americans who fought in the war and others who opposed it, as well as Vietnamese combatants and civilians from both the winning and losing sides.

AMERICA ABROAD: WARRIOR DIPLOMATS: A LOOK INTO US SPECIAL OPERATIONS SUNDAY, AUGUST 6 AT 9PM

Since 9/11 the United States military has been aggressively fighting terrorism all over the world, increasingly using the most elite units. Unlike most conventional forces, special operations soldiers are given plenty of freedom to solve complex problems out in the field. They’ve had enormous success — and yet there’s no end to wars in the Middle East. On this edition, we hear the stories behind special ops and explore their history and how their mission has changed since 9/11.

INTELLIGENCE SQUARED U.S.: YOUR PRIVATE DATA: CAN TECH COMPANIES KEEP IT FROM THE LAW?

APM REPORTS: SHADOW CLASS: COLLEGE DREAMERS IN TRUMP’S AMERICA

SUNDAY, AUGUST 20 AT 9PM

U.S. public schools must treat undocumented students like citizens. But once these students graduate, everything changes. Without papers, they don’t qualify for federal college grants, can’t legally work to pay for tuition, and may have to pay out-of-state tuition. Some young immigrants received temporary papers under an Obama administration program. But now find themselves with newly powerful opponents, including a president who swept into office on a wave of anti-immigrant fear and anger.

Do you have a secret that no one else knows? What about Apple, Google, Facebook, Verizon, or Uber? Are you sure they don’t know your secret? Digital data – emails, text messages, phone records, location records, web searches – contain traces of almost every secret. They also contain traces of almost every crime. Tech companies may promise to protect our data from prying eyes. But should that promise yield to law enforcement and national security?

WRUR-FM 88.5 Spotlight

IRISH PARTY HOUSE’S TED MCGRAW RETIRES FROM THE AIRWAVES Ted McGraw, longtime host of Irish Party House, broadcasted his final show on June 25 on WRUR-FM 88.5 (Rochester) and WITH-FM 90.1 (Ithaca). Ted shared his love of traditional Irish music and his collection of thousands of albums and CDs with his listeners for more than 40 years. A staple for the local Irish community, Irish Party House was one of the nation’s longest running Irish programs. Ted’s love of Irish music began when he was just a child, singing songs around the piano with his mother and listening to the radio. His passion for the musical genre can be measured in the 10,000 pieces of media he has been collecting since 1952. He hopes to find an institution where his collection can be preserved and used for both research and listening. The collection includes 78s, 45s, cassette tapes, albums, and CDs. To Ted Irish Party House was a wonderful and satisfying hobby. For his loyal listeners – he hopes they felt a sense of nostalgia when listening, hearing music from their homeland. For the younger generation who tuned in, he hopes he exposed them to music they may have not otherwise heard and have grown to appreciate.
