Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater The amazing dancers of the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater -- celebrating the theater’s 60th anniversary -- make their annual appearance in Atlanta, just as they have been doing for 40 years.

The company and its dancers -- who thrill with their jaw dropping athleticism and inspirational grace -- began in 1958 at New York City’s 92nd Street Y. (Yes, the Y!) Even though this original engagement was for one night only, it was the beginning of a phenomenon. Alvin Ailey became one of the great names in modern dance history. The 2019 Atlanta performance is presented as part of Destination Dance Ailey Atlanta, an organization whose goal is to engage Atlanta’s cultural community through partnerships between Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater and Atlanta-based cultural, civic and educational organizations, including The Fox Theatre.

ROSS DELOACH, NORTHLIGHT PHOTOGRAPHY

CONCIERGE CORNER When you visit Atlanta, be sure to find out what to do from one of our knowledgeable concierge friends.

Claudia Mashburn, Chef Concierge at Atlanta Marriott Marquis and recent inductee into Atlanta Convention & Visitors Bureau’s Atlanta Hospitality Hall of Fame, gives us her picks.

nothing beats a walk along the BeltLine, and there are plenty of places to pop in and warm up. I like to start at Ponce City Market and work my way down to Krog Street Market. From there, it’s an easy walk to Inman Park, which has many great shops and restaurants, including Sotto Sotto and Fritti. If you’re looking for something to do indoors, take a tour of Mercedes-Benz Stadium, home of the Atlanta Falcons and Atlanta United. It’s an amazing building!

Where should visitors go to experience Atlanta?

Winter is a great time for a tour of Atlanta’s amazing breweries. Some of my favorites are Monday Night (which has two locations), Sweetwater, Orpheus, Scofflaw and New Realm. When the weather’s nice,

Where can visitors pop in for a bite to eat and watch winter sportings?

There’s no shortage of great sports bars for watching your favorite team. In the downtown area, check out STATS, Park Bar and Gibney’s Pub. If soccer is your game, there’s no place better than Brewhouse Café

in Little Five Points, where they often serve breakfast for European league games. The Battery around SunTrust Park has Terrapin Taproom and Sports & Social, which has a 30-foot high-definition screen. It’s the biggest TV I’ve ever seen!

Where are the best places to hear live music?

The music scene in Atlanta is one of the best anywhere. We have a lot of places that feature live music throughout the year.

From long-time Atlanta venues such as Blind Willies, Smith’s Olde Bar, Eddie’s Attic, Star Community Bar and The Earl to newer places like City Winery, Sweet Georgia’s Juke Joint, Venkman’s and Two Urban Licks, you are sure to find the style of music you enjoy on almost any night of the week.

You might not know that Atlanta is the unofficial place for filming action-packed superhero movies. Marvel Studios recently started working with Atlanta’s Pinewood Studios and, ever since then, superhero movies have been produced from Atlanta and the state of Georgia, including “Black Panther,” “Ant-Man and the Wasp,” “Avengers: Infinity War,” and “Captain America: Civil War,” to name a few.

in action when Marvel Universe Live! comes to town. The show - Age of Heroes - is the live action debut of Guardians of the Galaxy along with Spider-Man, The Avengers and much more.

Atlanta resident Isaac Spooner, who plays Star-Lord, had a few moments to give us some tips on his favorite places in the city.

How long have you been performing in Marvel Universe Live? Have you always been Star-Lord or have you changed characters?

I’ve been with Marvel Universe Live since April of 2017 when we started building the show. Seven or eight weeks of nonstop fight choreographing, costume fittings, character training, and learning lines. I’ve been Star-Lord the entire time, but that isn’t to say that I don’t get to do other things. Every performer learns at least two show tracks that can consist of a couple different characters, and will swap with their understudy a couple times a week.

My understudy and I fight each other in the show so when we switch it’s a bit like I’m fighting myself in one of those carnival mirror houses.

When you are in Atlanta, where do you like to go for fun?

I’ve got so many friends in Atlanta that I’ll usually end up tagging along with whatever they’re doing. The big thing I try to be in Atlanta for is DragonCon because I’m a massive nerd and so are most of my friends and the most fun thing you can do is be nerds around other nerds who bring out the nerdiest parts of you.

Do you have recommendations for visitors who come to see Marvel Universe Live, but then want to explore other parts of the city?

I highly recommend seeing what’s happening at the Shakespeare Tavern.

Failing that, go see an [Atlanta] Hawks game. You might catch a couple of our performers singing the National Anthem if you go to the right one.

Isaac Spooner

ATLANTA.NET

Where are your favorite places to grab a bite to eat?

The Steamhouse Lounge. I’m also a big fan of Da Vinci Pizza.

Do you have a good live music venue that you enjoy visiting?

Smith’s Olde Bar is a nice spot for live music. A friend of mine plays there often.

What should ticket holders expect to see when they come to see Marvel Universe Live?

Expect a thrill ride. If you bring children, expect them to not sit down the entire time. Expect to be on the edge of your seat watching incredible fighting, pyrotechnics, high amplitude motorcycle stunts, and a beautiful circus act. Get there early so you don’t miss the show starting off with a bang courtesy of the Guardians of the Galaxy (it’s our first time on a live stage so we wanted to make a good impression). And at the end of it, expect a big smashing finale.

For the first time in the 34-year history of Medieval Times, a queen reigns over the kingdom.

Queen of Atlanta has made her debut at Atlanta Castle and serves as the sole ruler following the passing of her father, the former king.

“Leadership and chivalry know no limitations, and that includes gender,” said William Phillips, general manager of Medieval Times Atlanta. “We are honored to celebrate a strong female lead in this new show and our entire cast, are working tirelessly behindthe-scenes to create an authentic medieval experience that entertains, while attaching to a topic that is incredibly timely and inspiring.”

Audiences will experience several changes to the engaging, high-energy experience. Among these are new custom-designed costumes and suits of armor; a new live-action film score by composer and jazz pianist Dr. Daniel May, synchronized to every element of the show; and all new lighting and music cues.

What’s better than watching the game on the big screen? Watching it with other fans on lots of big screens, of course. Whether you’re a fan of football, soccer, or are just there for the wings and beer, here’s where to catch your favorite team in Atlanta.

BY LAURA SCHOLZ

BRAVES ALL STAR GRILL This downtown sports bar dedicated to the city’s popular baseball team is filled with Braves memorabilia from its Boston Red Stockings roots through its glory days of the 90s until today. Root, root, root for the home team on 30 screens, test your skills in a real life pitching cage, or reserve the “dugout” for a one-of-a-kind semi private dining event.

Menu highlights include “the starting lineup,” featuring appetizers like nachos and homemade chips and dip, “fields of green,” like the classical Caesar salad or Georgia peach salad, and “the big leagues,” including cedar plank salmon and a grilled New York strip steak.

If you’re traveling during the big game, check out the airport location at Concourse D. www.bravesgrill.com

HARD ROCK CAFE If you can’t get tickets to see your favorite team, the Hard Rock Cafe is within walking distance of Mercedes-Benz Stadium and

State Farm Arena, and has several screens dedicated to broadcasting all the big games.

Large group? No problem. The restaurant takes reservations for parties of 15 or more, and the jumbo combo appetizer platter featuring signature wings, onion rings, Tupelo chicken tenders, Southwest spring rolls, and bruschetta with housemade honey mustard, barbecue, and blue cheese dressings has something for everyone. Not into sharing?

Try the original Legendary Burger, a juicy half pound, certified Angus beef burger topped with smoked bacon, cheddar cheese, golden fried onion ring, crisp lettuce, and vine-ripened tomato or something from the smokehouse, like hickory smoked ribs or the pulled pork sandwich. A variety of spiked coffees like the Irish Kiss with Jameson Irish whiskey, Baileys Irish Cream, and Monin spiced brown sugar topped with whipped cream and chocolate syrup, make for drinkable desserts. www.hardrock.com Continued on page 28

New services to come include shiatsu massage, more essential oil add-ons and pro-aging services.

“We want to approach each client more holistically and assess their physical and even emotional needs in order to give them

the appropriate therapies and treatments, as well as suggest the proper products and essential oils,” says Samantha Neff, general manager. Completion is scheduled for early February, but the spa will be open during the expansion.

The spa describes its veggie facial as a salad on the skin that uses fresh, raw vegetables, fruits and herbs to penetrate and hydrate the skin.

The experts at iwi fresh cleanse, exfoliate and hydrate with raw squash, blueberries, flaxseeds, grits, honey, carrots, spinach and lettuce. They say that the raw ingredients produce immediate results. Stop in for an herbal massage or a hot shave.
