Incredi-plex debuts new family fun center on Indy’s northeast side

In what General Manager Matt Quinn referred to as an “old dinosaur of a steel building,” Sports of All Sorts has relaunched as IncrediPlex, a one-stop shop for everything a family could want from a day of entertainment.

Originally conceived Quinn as a sports complex, Incredi-Plex is now home to a wide variety of entertainment options. About half of the 177,000-square-foot building is still dedicated to youth and adult indoor sports, ranging from volleyball to futsal. A recently completed $2 million renovation overhauled the remaining half of the building. Additions include an arcade, Euro Bungee, 24-foot rock climbing wall, improvements to the bowling alley and the construction of a full-service tiki bar and bistro

'Moonlight and Magnolias' is hilarious, physical and thought-provoking Review by Hope Baugh

We all know now that “Gone with the Wind” is an award-winning classic movie. However, back in 1939 the movie only existed in producer David O. Selznick’s mind and he was having a heck of time trying to get a working screenplay out of the bestselling book. In the Carmel Clay Community Playhouse special fundraiser production of “Moonlight and Magnolias,” we get to be a fly on the wall of David’s office as he and his two cohorts – writer Ben Hecht and director Victor Fleming – lock themselves in for one hilarious week to get the job done.

It is hilarious because Ben (Tom Beeler) has only ever read the first page of the novel. David (Daniel Scharbrough) and Victor (Stephen Hunt) decide they will just act out the story so that he can write it down. This is easier said than done, especially since David insists that they never leave the room and eat only bananas and peanuts for “brain food.” It is fun to watch now-famous movie scenes such as “I don’t know nothin’ ‘bout birthin’ no babies” being born. It is interesting to think along with the men about philosophical

issues related to movie-making.

This is a very physical piece, with lots of rough-housing as the frustration and fatigue levels rise. The three male actors here are excellent.

However, my favorite performance in this show came from Carrie Schlatter, the woman who played David’s charming secretary, Miss Poppenghul, during the first weekend of the show’s three-weekend run. Carrie brought a nuanced ditsy-ness to the “small” part and made it clear how essential that secretary was to the success of the movie. Jean Childers Arnold will play Miss Poppenghul during the second weekend and Kathy Pataluch the third. I wish I had time to go back and see their performances too.

“Moonlight and Magnolias” was written by Ron Hutchinson and is directed here by Lori Raffel.

It runs through March 11, 2012 at the Carmel Community Playhouse (14399 Clay Terrace Blvd., Carmel). For more info, call 815-9387.

Syria contains dozens of interesting and colorful places to visit. (Submitted Photo)

Syria full of rich history, friendly people Travel by Don Knebel

When Americans hear about the violence in Syria, the reactions of many are like the ones my wife and I received when traveling there before the “Arab Spring” – “They hate Americans, right?” and “Did you lose the bet?” Actually, Syria is home to millions of friendly people, one of whom gave my wife a free cab ride just because she was American. Surprising to those who imagine Syria as a dull and dreary place, it contains dozens of interesting and colorful places to visit, so many of them tied to Christianity, some call Syria “the other Holy Land.”

Straight Street in Damascus is the heart of the “Christian Quarter,” where residents take visitors into what many claim is the house in which Paul was baptized by Ananias before beginning his journeys. A few miles away is Ma’aloula, where the priest of an ancient church will recite the Lord’s Prayer in Aramaic, the language of Jesus still spoken by local residents. Embracing this history, the tallest minaret in the main mosque in Damascus is named for Jesus, and

the mosque itself includes a shrine holding the severed head of John the Baptist.

There is a cave above the city of Antioch where Paul met secretly with the first “Christians” and argued with Peter about whether these followers had to be circumcised. Paul won the argument, facilitating the acceptance of Christianity throughout the Roman Empire.

On a hilltop a few miles east is the column atop which Simeon sat for 37 years trying to keep people from interrupting his meditation.

He was honored in 475 with a massive church, rivaling in size and prestige the one honoring Peter in Rome.

Syrians today take a long and patient view of history. Because of that, the Syrian people will survive their crisis and will again welcome people seeking a memorable travel experience.

“Plenty of genuine wit and characters drawn with such affection that one can’t help but cheer for them.”

—Ny Post TIMES: fri & Sat: 8:00 pm Sunday: 2:30 pm

The sort of psycho-sexual thriller Alfred Hitchcock only wishes he could’ve made in his era, “The Skin I Live In” is the best film in a decade by the Spanish auteur, Pedro Almodóvar.

This wild, kinky story is about an obsessive plastic surgeon named Robert (Antonio Banderas) who has a woman cooped up in his country mansion. Wearing only a nude skin-tight bodysuit, Vera (Elena Anaya) is a walking enigma, observed through a barrage of video cameras.

Is she Robert’s lover? His prisoner? His patient? Perhaps, somehow, all three?

Vera is anguished, having just attempted suicide as the story opens, but the strange new skin Robert has grafted onto her is nearly impervious to her knife slashes. Things get even N4 | March 6, 2012

“The Skin I Live In” • R, 117 minutes Review by Chris Lloyd

“frankly, my dear, this is one funny play… a rip-roaring farce…[with] witty, pointed dialogue and hilarious situations…” —Ny Daily News

stranger when a malevolent interloper invades their sanctuary, and makes lascivious overtures toward Vera.

This story is intercut with flashbacks to a few years ago when Robert and his teen daughter struggled to come to grips with the self-inflicted death of his wife. It’s a thorny bramble of a story, leading the audience into temptation and chaos, even as we draw closer to the answers to the film’s mysteries.

What a weird, wondrous journey.
