T

he artwork of local children is on display in the Edwardsville Arts Center's Dennis DeToye Student Gallery until Sept. 26.

The artwork in this exhibit was made by local children in kindergarten through fifth grade who were enrolled in the District 7 Summer Zone program over the summer months. The EAC partnered with the district and provided the art teacher, SIUE Graduate student Eric Heerspink, for the summer program.

Heerspink, who is majoring in ceramics but taught art to middle and high school students in Miami for four years, visited the Summer Zone program once a week to teach the Masterpiece Monday art classes.

Over the course of the eight-week program, he taught a different art topic during each of the 50- to 55-minute instructional sessions.

The first projects the Summer Zone students created were cardboard cars, which was an art project in coordination with the Edwardsville Art Center. The EAC was hosting free art workshops where children could stop by and make a cardboard car to then “drive” in the Route 66 First Annual Cardboard Car parade.

“We got a bunch of volunteers together through the EAC and a bunch of boxes and basically made the form of the car for the students,” Heerspink explained.

“We had about 10 volunteers make about 100 cars. And then in the class period for that first week, students got to decorate their own car – personalize it. We encouraged students to come to the parade and participate in that, and we had a really, really great turnout.”

The next art project focused on the upcoming Father's Day holiday.

“The little kids, kindergarten through second grade, made hand print fish or butterflies,” Heerspink noted. “They used their hands as a means to create the image.

For the Intelligencer

Above, Summer Zone participants show off the cars they created as their first project. Below, students work on drawings.

The hand became the form. The older kids did a mixed media piece where they made key-chains for their fathers. That one was a little bit moire craft based.”

The next couple of projects focused on different types of art.

“So we looked at what a portrait is and they did a Lego self-portrait using mixed media. And we looked at what a still life was – they ended

up doing a collage still life of trees,” Heerspink said.

Looking at the work of Miamibased artist Romero Britto, the students made an art piece inspired by the artist. “He's really popular in Miami, but not a lot of people have seen his work. He does kind of more simple forms and then he fills them with pattern and color.

We looked at his work and then

the students got to make a work in response to what he does – so kind of in his style,” Heerspink said.

“We also experimented with watercolor and household materials,” Heerspink added. “We talked about abstract art.”

The fifth and sixth graders enjoyed make super heroes using wooden figures. “The students came up with a super hero power,

September 11, 2014

a costume, and a name and they got to decorate their figures,” Heerspink said. “They painted them and decorated them as if they were a super hero so that was kind of fun.”

Heerspink talked about the importance of incorporating art into education and play. “Art just in general teaches kids to be creative,” he said. “It teaches dexterity.

There's that connection from the inner ear to the brain to the hand and learning how to translate those signals... just in terms of that alone it's really important.”

“Art also allows them to have an outlet for their imagination – for the things that they are thinking about,” Heerspink added. “And art allows them to problem solve and come up with solutions for an extremely large array of problems that arises when students are working on artwork. So, there's a lot of things that come together when you do artwork that are good for students.”

The selection of the children's artwork made during Summer Zone's Masterpiece Mondays will be on display until Sept.

26 at the EAC which located in the southeastern corner of Edwardsville High School. The EAC is open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Wednesday through Fridays and is open from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturdays. It is closed Sunday through Tuesdays.

During the same time period, the main gallery will feature an exhibit entitled “Literally Figurative.” This exhibit will highlight figurative work by eight artists who use the human form as a vessel of narration or as a guide to explore greater ideas.

Music Tuning in Sarah Jorosz to host festival at The Sheldon

The Sheldon and 88.1 KDHX present Sarah Jarosz with Blue Canyon Boys and special guest Betse Ellis, Friday, September 26 at 8 p.m. in the perfect acoustics of the Sheldon Concert Hall. Jarosz appears as part of the 3rd Annual St. Louis Folk and Roots Festival, taking place September 26-28, celebrating folk and roots music, throughout Grand Center.

With dynamic songwriting and a fresh, authentic sound Sarah Jarosz brings roots music into the 21st century! The 22-year-old multi-instrumentalist and Grammynominee hails from Austin, TX, and has critics labeling her a “newgrass prodigy� for her skills on banjo, guitar and mandolin. Over the past four years, Jarosz has toured the United States extensively, as well as Canada and the UK, taped Austin City Limits and the BBC Series The Transatlantic Sessions and appeared on A Prairie Home Companion. She is supported on the road by all-star musicians Alex Hargreaves (fiddle) and Nathaniel Smith (cello) who have been performing with Jarosz since 2010 and are featured on her recent release, Build Me Up From Bones.

The Colorado-based Blue Canyon Boys blend sweet harmonies with virtuoso instrumental skill, making them one of the most popular festival bands touring today. Winners of the 2008 Telluride Bluegrass festival band contest, the Blue Canyon Boys have gone on to perform across the country and were selected to represent the United States and

bluegrass music at the 14th annual Rainforest World Music Festival in Sarawak, Malaysia on the island of Borneo. Opening the concert is fiddler and songwriter Betse Ellis.

Part old-time celebrant and part contemporary songwriter, Ellis blends traditional source material with her own original works. Citing influences from John Hartford to Joe Strummer, she transcends genres and pushes the boundaries of how folk music can be understood and imagined in the modern age.

Folk and Roots Festival Package: $60 includes Friday and Saturday night concerts at The Sheldon, a late night Friday square dance, Saturday daytime workshops, Saturday night after party concert at The Stage at KDHX, and Sunday workshops and Old-Time Fiddle Contest.

Single tickets are $40 orchestra/$35 balcony, and are on sale now through MetroTix at 314-534-1111, through The Sheldon’s website at TheSheldon.org, or in person at The Fox Theatre Box Office, 534 N. Grand Blvd. For more information, call The Sheldon at 314.533.9900 or visit TheSheldon.org.

Music Tuning in GACA set for 2014-15 season

It seems only a few weeks ago that John Davidson was playing the season finale for the Greater Alton Concert Assocation . The group wrapped up a great 73rd season after being entertained by The Four Freshmen, Double Grande, The Gothard Sisters and The Masters of Motown. The group has announced is lineup for the 2014-2015 74th Season of the GACA. Sunday Sept. 21, 2014, 3 p.m.

We kick off the season with award winning artist Collin Raye. He shot to fame in 1991 with the song “Love, Me”. This song continues to be used for wedding, anniversaries, memorial services and funerals. He has had 24 top ten records, 16 #1 hits, and been a 10 time “Male Vocalist of the Year” nominee. Collin is a musician who uses his music and stardom to promote positive and loving messages.

In 2001 he was presented the Country Radio Seminar’s Humanitarian of the Year award in recognition of his work for organizations such as Boys Town, First Steps, Al-Anon and Special Olympics to name a few. In 2011 Collin released his first inspirational album, His Love Remains, which quickly shot to #1 on Amazon for inspirational and religious music.

Collin tours all over the world singing his soulful, heartfelt ballads.

He just returned from a tour in Ireland. This promises to be one of the most beautiful and touching concerts of the season. www.collinraye.com Sunday October 26, 2014 3 p.m.

The magic number for us is 52—50 years ago this year the Beatles came to America and changed the Rock & Roll world forever. Two years

ago Beatlemania Magic recreated these classic sounds for us on this stage! This Beatles tribute band brings the authentic sounds and looks of the different Beatle “eras”. You can take a trip through the earliest songs such as “She Loves Me” to the later sound of “Sgt. Pepper”, “Let It Be” and “Abbey Road”. This year they played a sold out performance at the Majestic Performing Arts Center in Ohio, celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Beatles appearance on Ed Sullivan.

Whether or not you missed them the first time, you owe it to yourself to hear Beatlemania Magic this time! www.beatlemaniamagic.com Sunday February 15, 2015, 3 p.m.

Al Simmons’ one-man, multi-prop, music-filled, off the wall performances have elevated audiences world-wide to collective giggles and all-out guffaws. Al’s humor touches a responsive chord in peo-ple of every age. While it may be difficult to define this program, the titles of his

albums may give you some insight (or not) —“Something’s Fishy at Camp Wiganishis” , “Celery Stalks at Midnight”, and “The Truck I bought From Moe”. Those of you who remember and enjoyed vaudeville will have something to tell your family about.

Al’s inspirations were great comedy kings such as Danny Kaye, Spike Jones and Jimmy Durante. Bring your friends, family, and neighbors to an afternoon of comedy with song, dance, magic and sight gags. www. alsimmons.com Saturday March 7, 2015, 7:30 p.m.

"Get On Up"

ASSOCIATED PRESS RANKING: One-half star out of four.

There's a delicious moment in "Get On Up," Tate Taylor's new James Brown biopic, when Brown — played by Chadwick Boseman, in a thrillingly magnetic performance — is about to appear on the T.A.M.I. Show, a multi-act concert filmed in 1964.

Backstage, the singer is informed that he and his band won't be closing the show; that honor will be going to an up-andcoming British band called the Rolling Stones. Brown shakes off the disappointment, goes out and blows the roof off the place with the force of those growling vocals and explosive, kinetic dance moves. Then he saunters over to the Stones, just five skinny blokes who don't know what hit them. "Welcome to America," he says.

Did he say that in real life? No matter. The scene illustrates Brown's most important qualities: his ndescribable drive as a performer, and his almost blinding charisma.

For that, kudos go to director Taylor and producers Brian Grazer and Mick Jagger (yes, that Mick Jagger, who's made no secret of Brown's influence on his own famous moves.) But none of it would work, of course, without Boseman, an actor on a remarkable run of late, playing Jackie Robinson in "42" and now this. If he was impressive as the dignified Robinson, he's electrifying as Brown.

And just as Brown, in life, upstaged pretty much everyone — including his bandmates, the Famous Flames — Boseman does that here. The always excellent Viola Davis plays Brown's mother, Susie, but since Susie left her son as a boy, we don't see enough Davis — just a few sad moments from Brown's hardscrabble rural youth, and then one excruciating, wonderfully played scene later, when she comes to see her adult son backstage at Harlem's Apollo Theater.

RATED: PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association of America "for sexual content, drug use, some strong language, and violent situations.

RUNNING TIME: 138 minutes.

ASSOCIATED PRESS RANKING: Three stars out of four.

"Into the Storm"

"Into the Storm" is a movie that addresses the fearsome power of nature. Alas, it also addresses the fearsome power of a bad script to distract us from the fearsome power of nature.

Add to that a set of cardboard characters, and what you have is a movie that should have dispensed with the humans and dialogue altogether, and been a documentary. If, of course, the storms were real. Which they aren't.

The film, directed by Steven Quale, runs only 89 minutes.

And yet, despite the often engrossing special effects, it drags.

It seems there are only so many times you can watch a funnel cloud bear down, while someone yells out: "We gotta get out of here. C'mon!"

The action takes place in one day in the small town of Silverton, somewhere in the heartland. Four high school students have just been killed in a tornado in Oklahoma, which is somewhere nearby.

And yet, Silverton's high school is planning to go ahead with its outdoor graduation, despite the forecast. Maybe this is why Vice Principal Gary Fuller — Richard Armitage, the dwarf leader Thorin of the "Hobbit" movies — is frowning, a state in which he remains throughout the film (his Thorin, though shorter, was much more expressive.) He heads to school with his teenage sons, Donnie and Trey.

Meanwhile, a storm-tracking team is on the chase, led by a driven, self-centered documentary filmmaker, Pete (Matt Walsh). He's spent years developing the perfect storm-tracking vehicle — the Titus, a war tank with giant claws that can bore into the ground amid high winds.

RATED: PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association of America for "sequences of intense destruction and peril, and language including some sexual references."

RUNNING TIME: 89 minutes.

On the Edge of the Weekend

"Love Is Strange"

A gay couple who have been together for almost four decades are separated — at least physically — by factors beyond their control in "Love Is Strange," the latest tender and meandering exploration of human relationships from indie darling Ira Sachs ("Keep the Lights On," ''Forty Shades of Blue").

Set in the Big Apple, this is a sprawling yet intimate narrative, constructed almost entirely of in-between moments rather than the big turning points and tragedies. The starting point is the housing problem of two newlyweds but longtime lovers, played with enormous generosity by Alfred Molina and John Lithgow, but the film slowly expands its vision to encompass a much larger cast that includes Marisa Tomei and Cheyenne Jackson.

"Love Is Strange" opens on what should be the happiest day in the lives of Ben (Lithgow) and George (Molina), as they get ready in their tasteful Manhattan apartment for their wedding.

Initially somewhat counterintuitively, Sachs ensures that everything looks rather ordinary: they get up, shower, dress, are running late and can't find a taxi. Indeed, as will become clear from the film that follows, this is not the happiest day in their lives exactly because the duo, who've been together for 39 years, have mastered the art of being happy with what they have, every single day.

RATED: R by the Motion Picture Association of America for "language."

RUNNING TIME: 94 minutes.

ASSOCIATED PRESS RANKING: Not ranked.

"If I Stay"

'Tis clearly the season for exceedingly attractive young adults in mortal peril.

Just two months ago, we had the charming Shailene Woodley as a teen cancer patient, fighting for time while learning about life and love in "The Fault in Our Stars." Last week, we had Aussie heartthrob Brenton Thwaites in "The Giver," risking his life for the sake of truth and memory.

And now we have the sweet Chloe Grace Moretz in "If I Stay," spending the movie in a state of limbo between life and death, after a catastrophic accident shatters her comfy world.

Like all successful YA novels brought to screen, "If I Stay," based on the 2009 teen tearjerker by Gayle Forman, brings with it a ready-made audience. All the filmmakers need do is cast the most appealing couple they can find and stay faithful to the story, and the kids should be happy.

It's safe to say director R.J. Cutler has done that — Moretz is beautiful to look at, and as her rocker boyfriend, Jamie Blackley is satisfyingly sensitive and hunky. And they have good lips. This is one screen couple that knows how to kiss.

If only the dialogue worked as well. Shauna Cross' script lapses into syrupy platitudes far too often. Just as a scene is building, you may suddenly feel like you've walked into a life-size Hallmark card.

RATED: PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association of America for "thematic elements and some sexual material."

RUNNING TIME: 106 minutes.

ASSOCIATED PRESS RANKING: Two and a half stars out of four.

"Life of Crime"

Some may pine for George Clooney's chin or Scarlett Johansson's lips, but no body part should be more envied than Elmore Leonard's ear.

Leonard's dialogue seemed to have walked in off the street. He filled countless pages with the stuff, capturing with preternatural acuity the diverse, often ungrammatical,

September 11, 2014

frequently comic ping-ponging sounds of American voices shooting the breeze.

And he did it, like a magician, without showing his hand. "If it sounds like writing, I rewrite it," was one of his 10 rules. He probably would have rewritten these sentences.

It's both why Leonard has been so alluring to filmmakers, and why adapting him is so difficult. His talky, screenplayfriendly books have already produced some 20 movies (including "Out of Sight," ''Jackie Brown," ''Get Shorty" and "3:10 to Yuma") and several TV shows (like the pulpy "Justified").

Now, a year after his death, comes the film "Life of Crime," a largely faithful and appropriately admiring adaptation of Leonard's 1978 novel "The Switch."

It has three very good things going for it: the crinkled face of John Hawkes, the nasal deadpan of Yasiin Bey (aka Mos Def) and Jennifer Aniston in the kind of comedic-dramatic part she should have always been playing.

Hawkes and Bey play a pair of Detroit criminals — Louis Gara and Ordell Robbie, respectively — who conspire to kidnap the wife, Mickey (Aniston), of a suburban sleaze ball, Frank Dawson (Tim Robbins). Their plan to hold her goes awry when the plot is one-upped by others swirling around Dawson with equally bad motives.

With his mistress (Isla Fisher), Dawson has sneaked off to the Bahamas, where he's hiding money skimmed off his business and plotting a divorce. Is getting rid of his wife even a threat? Also interfering on their home abduction is a country-club acquaintance (a mustachioed, cowardly Will Forte), whose ill-conceived romantic pursuit of Mickey brings him calling at precisely the wrong time.

"Sin City: A Dame to Kill For"

After being clonked over the head in 1944's "Murder, My Sweet," Raymond Chandler's immortal private eye Philip Marlowe wryly narrated the experience of being knocked out: "A black pool opened up at my feet. I jumped in."

In "Sin City: A Dame to Kill For," a belated, 3-D sequel to 2005's "Sin City," cultishly-adored graphic novelist Frank Miller and genre-exploiting director Robert Rodriguez have again jumped right into the same dark abyss Dick Powell's Marlowe fell into, into the same noir sea — or, at least, some hyper-stylized version of it. This is hardboiled on heroin.

Both "Sin City" movies are double layers of aesthetic idolatry: Miller, famed for his "Dark Knight" reimagining of Batman, worships at the pulp altar of Chandler and Mickey Spillane, while Rodriguez is slavishly devoted to turning Miller's two-dimensional drawings into cinematic flesh. (Miller's name precedes the film's title and he shares directing credit with Rodriguez.) They each approach their tasks with gusto that can only be admired, even if the results can't.

Like its predecessor, "A Dame to Kill For" was made with an almost entirely digital palate, placing actors — Mickey Rourke, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Jessica Alba, Josh Brolin, Eva Green — on a starkly black-and-white canvas in a fictional (but very Los Angeles-like) permanent-midnight metropolis of rampant crime, extreme brutality and skin-baring luridness.

It's described with tough-guy poetry like: "the kind of place your father doesn't want to talk about."

RATED: R by the Motion Picture Association of America for "strong brutal stylized violence throughout, sexual content, nudity and brief drug use."

This image released by Relativity Media shows Pierce Brosnan, center, and Olga Kurylenko in a scene from the film, "The November Man."

Brosnan back in the spy game

By JOHN DeFORE The Hollywood Reporter LOS ANGELES (AP) — Onetime 007 Pierce Brosnan embraces a darker take on spycraft in Roger Donaldson's "The November Man," playing a former CIA agent whose autumnal nickname acknowledges his tendency to leave few alive when he passes through a town. A familiar string of dark secrets, shifting allegiances and (wo)man-who-knew-toomuch pursuit propels the storyline (adapted from one in a series of Bill Granger novels), giving Brosnan the opportunity to prove his cool remains intact, sans tux and gadgets.

"November Man" won't do anything like

Bond's box office, but will satisfy the actor's fans and moviegoers biding their time until the next top-shelf le Carre-style thriller.

Here, Brosnan plays Peter Devereaux, who in his day was known for his unwillingness to form personal attachments that could compromise his duties. Like all spies, though, he had his secrets: When the woman he once loved (and who secretly bore him a daughter) dies while spying in Moscow, he becomes the enemy of her killer — his old protege David Mason (Luke Bracey), whose bosses at Langley ordered the hit lest she be captured by the Russians.

Make that one Russian in particular: Corrupt former general Arkady Federov (Lazar Ristovski), who is on track to be the

next Russian president and wants to erase anyone who knows about the atrocities he committed in the Second Chechen War. Devereaux's ex was one of those secretholders, and in following her leads, he winds up saving Alice Fournier (Olga Kurylenko) from Federov's top assassin.

(Said killer is a woman, whose introductory scenes make one wonder why we so rarely meet hitmen who do balletic splits in order to limber up before a kill.)

Fournier is a social worker who has helped some of the girls Federov sold into the sex trade, including one named Mira he made his personal slave. Mira overheard a lot during those years, and powerful people around the globe want to find her

before she tells anyone what she knows.

Though the film's cat-and-mouse s c e n e s h a rd l y c o m p a re t o t h o s e i n a Bourne movie, they're enjoyable and only occasionally ridiculous. (A long sequence in which Devereaux and Mason taunt each other on the phone during a chase makes little sense except for those longing to hear "You've lost your touch, old man" cliches.) Brosnan, whose old franchise made a smart turn away from superspy fantasy after his departure, plays the gritty side of spookdom well, and the film offers him (sometimes puzzling) opportunities to show just how nasty he can be, even as he's risking life and limb to save a stranger.

"Chef" among the year's better movies

By ROBERT GRUBAUGH Of The Edge I wonder if Hollywood even understands what they've done to destroy the Labor Day holiday? Most of the year, this is big business for the movies.

Christmas is a target date.

Lately, the Fourth of July has popped with ticket sales almost as loudly as firecrackers. Late summer just seems to be a black h o l e o f d re c k w h e re a l l b a d movies are put out to pasture.

It's a darkest dawn before Aw a r d s ' S e a s o n c o n t e n d e r s finally start to come into focus on the bleak horizon of September film-going. One little thing has caused me to shift my perspective, however slightly, and that is the re-issue over this long weekend of some of the

season's older titles. Having missed "Chef" the first time around was my mistake and I'm glad I got the chance to rectify it.

This might be the best movie I've seen so far this year.

Chef Carl Casper went from rising hero in the food world to a fuddy-duddy stuck in the comfort zone of his culinary laurels. But his talent hasn't left him. It's been wasted by the owner (Dustin Hoffman) of his swanky Los Angeles restaurant.

The old-timer makes a rather accurate analogy about cooking cherished favorite dishes instead of daring new ones by likening Carl to Mick Jagger and "Satisfaction", but it does n o t h i n g t o s o o t h e t h e f i re t o create that has been left unstoked for so long. After blowing up at a food critic (Oliver Platt)

over unfair criticism of meals once thought of legendarily, Carl goes viral in an embarrassing, more-spot-on-than-you-think misunderstanding via Twitter.

More will soon follow about his life via social media outlets.

It might be counterintuitive to think of an R-rated flick as a good family movie, but this one is quite moving. In h i s ru s h t o c a p i t a l i z e o n t h e g re a t p o t e n t i a l o f h i s y o u t h , Casper (writer/director Jon Favreau) has forsaken a lot of this important things in life.

His marriage to the even more successful Inez (Sofia Vergara) crumbled under the weight of their opposing interests, but the two remain close friends. It's the distance that grows between Casper and his son, Percy (Emjay Anthony), that is most

unfortunate. During a vacation to Miami, Inez convinces Carl that he should pursue his love of the kitchen independently and he buys a food truck. Good buddy and sous chef Martin (John Leguizamo) joins the ride a s C a r l a n d P e rc y d r i v e t h e beastly vehicle back across the country. The men all bond over Cubano sandwiches, yucca fries, and plantains as they take New Orleans and Austin by storm.

The authentic flavor to this picture comes from things like eating beignets at Cafe du Monde and listening to a neighborhood rock band at an al fresco BBQ joint. It's real enough that I felt like I was right there with them.

Percy is a whiz with his p h o n e . K i d s t h e s e d a y s t re a t personal electronic devices like MacGyver would his Swiss

Go see it before it disappears again.

"Chef" runs 119 minutes and is rated R for language, including some suggestive references. I give this film four stars out of four.

Ozarks Air Show scheduled For The Edge On Sept. 20, the skies will be alive with action during the Lake of the Ozarks Air Show at Camdenton Memorial Airport. This free air show honors veterans and active military members, as well as providing an early-autumn activity for the community and visitors.

"The Lake of the Ozarks Air Show delights audiences and honors military heroes each year through the generosity of our sponsors," Lake of the Ozarks Convention and Visitor Bureau Executive Director Tim Jacobsen said. "The annual air show is a really cool event that will undoubtedly be an awesome experience for everyone who attends. There's still time to make plans to come to the Lake and have a fun and memorable getaway."

Thrilling aviation acts for this year's show include the P-51 "Gunfighter," a WWII plane performing aerobatics; stunt flying

by Team Vortex and G&M Airshows; wing walking by Dave Dacy Airshows; and performances by the Free-Fall Express Skydivers and the KC Flight Formation Team. The Chevrolet Flash Fire Jet Truck will be racing across the ground, as well.

On the Edge of the Weekend

The opening ceremonies for the event are at 10 a.m., but the fun begins even earlier with entertainment from the Fort Leonard Wood band at 8 a.m. and a performance by Main Street Opry and LOZ Dance Academy at 9:45 a.m.

Once again, free flights for veterans are being offered, this year in the B-25J Mitchell WWII bomber. Organizers say this is another way of thanking those who have served in the armed forces.

The event is fun for several generations of family members. Veterans involved in past conflicts can proudly remember their service, while children can enjoy the fun of Ping-Pong ball drops and flights by remote control planes.

Vendors will offer food and drinks for the show, but attendees are encouraged to bring lawn chairs or blankets for seating. Local civic organizations act as vendors for the event, reinvesting proceeds into the airshow and their own community projects, making the show a benefit to the Camdenton community in many ways.

For attendees, a convenient free shuttle from the parking lots at the Camdenton RIII schools runs from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.

September 11, 2014

and airport parking is also available for a $5 fee.

The show began with approximately 4,000 attendees four years ago. Since then, it has been breaking attendance records every year, with last year's show drawing crowds of about 14,000 spectators. Airport Manager Corey Leuwerke believes the show's location at the Lake deserves the credit. "We provide an exciting airshow, plus the opportunity to spend the weekend at the beautiful Lake of the Ozarks," he said.

Camdenton Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Trish Creach sums it up this way: "This must-attend event is a topnotch historical aviation experience for the entire family and visitors of all ages."

The event is made possible by collaboration among the City of Camdenton, the Camdenton Area Chamber of Commerce, the Camdenton Memorial Airport, the Lake of the Ozarks Convention and Visitor Bureau and other local sponsors.

Travel Missouri offers motorcyclists plenty of adventures

By TOM UHLENBROCK For The Edge Eminence, Mo. - North Carolina has the Tail of the Dragon, Tennessee is home to the Devil’s Triangle and now Missouri has the Ozark Hellbender.

A catchy name is a must for enticing the nation’s motorcycle riders to experience a scenic, stomach-churning roadway with plenty of sharp “twisties” and long, banked “sweepers.” The Tail of the Dragon boasts 318 curves in 11 miles.

The Ozark hellbender is a large aquatic salamander that hides under rocks in the spring-fed streams of southern Missouri. Alan Peters decided to honor the endangered amphibian by borrowing its name for one of five motorcycle routes he is recommending as self-guided day trips at www.MotorcycleOzarks. com .

Peters and his wife, Lynnett, have been promoting the scenic wonders of the area since moving from Kansas some 40 years ago and opening River’s Edge Resort on the Jacks Fork River in Eminence.

The Jacks Fork and the Current River are the heart of the Ozark National Scenic Riverways, America’s first river-based national park. The area also is home to the Mark Twain National Forest, which covers 1.5 million acres of wooded hills that glow in autumn colors each fall.

Cutting straight through the scenic landscape north to south through Eminence is Highway 19, which was built in the 1930s by laborers using picks, shovels, axes, saws and teams of oxen and mules. The route followed the ridges of the hills, with steep drop-offs beyond the shoulders in many stretches.

Federal funds once were available to straighten the gnarly highway, but those plans were voted down.

Missouri Department of Tourism

Above, the Ozark Hellbender Motorcycle Route crosses the Current River at Big Spring. Below, Highway 19 twists and turns as it heads into Eminence.

Designated a scenic highway, 19 now is a delight for motorcyclists, sports car enthusiasts and any driver who relishes a challenging, backcountry road.

Not so delighted are the queasy kids in the backseat.

Peters is an avid motorcyclist and put together the information on his web page to showcase the area to outsiders. His website includes free printable maps and descriptive guides of the wonders you’ll find on each route.

“Most of the cyclists who come through here ride 19 but miss the

best part,” Peters said. “You’ve got to stop and see the springs and the caves and the waterfalls, all those things that make this place unique in the whole world.”

For example, the Ozark Hellbender starts in Eminence in a 122-mile loop that features nearly 300 curves.

The route crosses the Current River at Round Spring, then goes over Sinking Creek and twists up the mountain past Current River State Park. It hangs a left on Route KK to Aker’s Ferry.

“After leaving Akers, it heads north on Devil’s Backbone, which

offers beautiful views of the Current River valley any time of the year,” Peters said. “It follows some nice curves into Montauk State Park, which is another part of the world with trout fishing in the headwaters of the Current. There’s lodging and a pretty good restaurant in the park.”

Heading back to Eminence, the route goes by Alley Spring, where the barn-red mill is one of the most photographed scenes in the Ozarks.

“The spring, the old red mill and the sluice below are just absolutely gorgeous,” Peters said. “The foot bridge offers a bird’s eye view of the river.”

Traffic is minimal on the five routes, although horse trailers and logging trucks may slow you down.

Here are the other four routes Peters describes on the web page: Jesse James Getaway: From Eminence, this route follows Highway 106, crossing the Current River and going up the mountainside. “If you want to be a little adventurous, you can take the road to Blue Spring, one of the most beautiful sights in the country,” Peters said. The route is named for the infamous outlaw who was said to have escaped frustrated posses by hiding in the hills and hollows. “Supposedly, he stayed at Maggard’s Cabin and left a nice tip under his plate in the morning,” Peters said.

Waterfall Wonderland: The ride is named for Rocky Falls, which looks like it should be in the Rocky Mountains instead of the Ozarks.

As it heads toward Arkansas, the pavement swoops up and down through the Mark Twain National Forest. “It’s a real roller coaster,” Peters said. “The faster you go, the more exciting it is. You definitely come out of your seat on some of those.” A mile-long hike through

September 11, 2014

the forest leads to Greer Spring, which sits in a pristine canyon and pumps out 220,000 million gallons of clear, cold water daily. Further on is Mammoth Spring, which has a waterfall and visitor center.

Big Spring Sidewinder: Big Spring is the biggest in a state of gushing springs. “It’s a truly awesome sight – a big boil that comes out of the base of a bluff,” Peters said.

“It’s a favorite destination of a lot of motorcyclists. It’s a popular site to picnic or camp or just visit the river. You go to Van Buren through the backroads on Route D. It offers some challenging sweepers into the backside of Van Buren.”

Elephant Rocks and Roll: The route is named for Elephant Rocks State Park, where a short paved walkway leads to a formation of huge granite boulders that some say looks like a row of pink circus elephants. The ride then goes to another popular state park, Johnson’s Shut-Ins, which is home to the state’s favorite swimming hole. “You go through Bixby, which has a country store that is a great place to stop for some ice cream or a soda,” Peters said. “You get to visit a real Ozark roadside attraction.”

Peters has been guiding trips through the Ozarks for 40 years, and designed his website to promote what he has found.

“One thing I’m willing to do, if someone wants to talk to me, I’ll add some tips, something off the beaten path, to help see the Ozarks that most people don’t get to see,” he said.

The guides are available at www.

Religion Religion briefs Amish building permit disagreement lands in court

PRESTON, Minn. (AP) — An Amish man from southeastern Minnesota says he didn't seek a permit for a home his family is building because it would have required installing a septic system, which is a modern convenience his religious beliefs wouldn't allow.

Ammon Swartzentruber appeared in Fillmore County District Court on Wednesday to contest a misdemeanor charge of failing to get a building permit for the home his family began constructing in Harmony.

"We never had to do it before and we don't believe in changing," said Ammon. "It's a new thing for us.

In the 38 years that we've lived here it was our right to not have it," said Swartzentruber's father, Jacob Swartzentruber.

The county adopted new treatment system ordinances in December of 2013. Swartzentruber told KTTC-TV that he was able to obtain building permits in the past because that ordinance didn't exist.

"In the past some of those conditions may not have been in place," said Fillmore County Attorney Brett Corson.

"There may be some things that they just did not fulfill or didn't do in order to get that permit. That's probably part of it, but the major point is that they did not obtain

a permit before they started building."

The permit dispute involving Amish families is not u n p re c e d e n t e d . A j u d g e i n Wi s c o n s i n ' s E a u C l a i re County recently ruled that Amish families must obtain building and sanitary permits or risk being removed from their residences.

Swartzentruber is due back in court for a conference Sept. 10.

The Arts

The Rep to host "One Man, Two Guvnors" For The Edge The Repertory Theatre of St. Louis presents the wildly funny and witty play One Man, Two Guvnors by Richard Bean and directed

by Edward Stern. This entertaining and innovative take on the classic farce The Servant of Two Masters by playwright Carlo Goldoni with songs by Grant Olding will be performed on the Browning Mainstage of the Loretto-Hilton Center for the Performing Arts, 130 Edgar Road (on the campus of Webster University), Webster Groves, September 10-October 5, 2014.

Francis Henshall needs a job. Recently sacked from his skiffle band, he’s hungry and has a bad case of fish and chips on the brain.

To make ends meet, he becomes a servant to two different masters. Frazzled Francis tries his best to balance duties and keep his bosses from meeting, but what he doesn’t know about them, and what they don’t know about each other, quickly become uproarious and riotous cases of mistaken identities and slapstick antics in this laugh-out-loud awardwinning comedy.

Neale, set designer; David Kay Mickelsen, costume designer; Kirk Bookman, lighting designer; Rusty Wandall, sound designer; Jacob Stergos, music director; Leland Faulkner, physical comedy director; James Compton, movement coordinator; Joanna Battles, dialect coach; Rich Cole, casting director; Emilee Buchheit, stage manager; and Shannon B.

STAGES to present "Fiddler On The Roof" For The Edge STAGES St. Louis is pleased to announce the opening of the timeless Tony Award-winning musical "Fiddler On The Roof".

The treasured tale of family and tradition will play at the Robert G. Reim Theatre in Kirkwood, Sept.

5th through Oct. 5th. Due to an unprecedented advance in sales, STAGES has added a performance to the original schedule on Sunday, Sept. 28 at 7:30 pm.

One of the most touching creations in the history of Broadway, "Fiddler On The Roof" exudes a warmth and humor unlike any other American Musical. Set in politically tumultuous 1905 Russia, Tevye the milkman must adjust to the changing world around him, as each of his five daughters move further away from spiritual tradition.

An inspiring and universal tale of heritage, love, and acceptance, "Fiddler On The Roof" features such heartfelt and beloved songs as "Sunrise, Sunset," "If I Were A Rich Man," and "Matchmaker, Matchmaker." Featuring a book

by Joseph Stein with Music by Jerry Bock and Lyrics by Sheldon Harnick, "Fiddler On The Roof" is a musical masterpiece that will last forever in your heart! STAGES' production of "Fiddler On The Roof" stars Broadway Actor Bruce Sabath as Tevye.

"Fiddler On The Roof" opened

18

on Sept. 22, 1964 at the Imperial T h e a t r e o n B r o a d w a y. T h e initial production ran for an unprecedented 3,242 performances, at the time making it the longest running musical in Broadway history.

Having been the first musical in history to run for more than 3,000 performances, "Fiddler On The Roof" held the title of longestrunning musical for ten years, and garnered a special Tony for this feat in 1972.

Among the nine 1965 Tony Awards won by the production including Best Musical, the role of Tevye earned the legendary Zero Mostel his second Tony Award for Best Leading Actor in a Musical.

An acclaimed 1971 film adaption starring Chaim Topol earned three Academy Awards and box office success. The past 50 years have seen four Broadway revivals, many included stars like Harvey Fierstein, Rosie O'Donnell, Alfred Molina, and Lea Michele in various roles.

STAGES is delighted to present Bruce Sabath in "Fiddler On The Roof". Sabath played Larry in The Tony-Award-winning Broadway revival of Company. Other New York credits include Hello Again, Platinum, and The Countess of Storyville. TV credits include "Boardwalk Empire," "Onion Sports Dome," and "I Love a Beekeeper."

Also starring is St. Louis Actress Kari Ely (Golde), who returns to

The Arts For The Edge The country’s first AfricanAmerican ballet company returns to St. Louis in all its splendor, glory and magnificence! Dance St. Louis presents Dance Theatre of Harlem on November 7-8 at the Touhill Performing Arts Center.

It’s been a decade since Dance Theatre of Harlem performed in St. Louis, and the company itself took an eight-year hiatus in 2004. Now, the newly relaunched company with a 45-year history performs an eclectic, demanding repertoire at the highest level, ranging from new and classical to neoclassical and contemporary. Don’t miss the opportunity to witness the resurgence of this globally acclaimed dance institution.

Since its relaunch Dance Theatre of Harlem, which consists of 18 racially diverse dance artists, has received outstanding accolades, critical acclaim and extensive media attention. Under the artistic direction of the remarkable and esteemed Virginia Johnson, former Dance Theatre of Harlem principal dancer and founding member, the company continues to take the world by storm.

Founded in 1969 by Arthur Mitchell and the late Karel Shook, Dance Theatre of Harlem was considered “one of ballet’s most exciting undertakings” (The New York Times, 1971). After its establishment, the company received unparalleled international acclaim and unprecedented success. Audiences all over the world were touched with performances of Creole Giselle,

For The Edge

Pictured are two different views of Dance Theatre of Harlem.

Agon, Dougla, Les Biches, Swan Lake, A Streetcar Named Desire, Firebird, Fall River Legend and more than a hundred ballets in the company’s repertoire. It has been said that Dance Theatre of Harlem definitively debunked historical stereotypes and opinions that

African Americans could not dance ballet.

St. Louis Program (Program is subject to change.)

The St. Louis program features a new ballet by one of America’s most diverse and sought after choreographers, Darrell Grand Moultrie, a Julliard graduate, performer and master teacher who has been on faculty at several artistic institutions in the United States and has choreographed everything from national commercials and works on Broadway to ballet. Dance Theatre of Harlem performs the world premiere of Moultrie’s ballet in Washington, D.C. in October, a few weeks prior to the St. Louis performances.

The company also performs New Bach. Choreographed by Robert Garland and set to music

by J.S. Bach, New Bach was created for the first company, performed by the Dance Theatre of Harlem Ensemble, and now comes into the new company’s repertoire. Dance Theatre of Harlem Founder Arthur Mitchell instilled the dynamism of neoclassical ballet into the company, and Robert Garland has captured its essence with New Bach. Infused with popular dance vernacular, the work is a supreme expression of post-modern-urban neoclassicism and is a tribute to George Balanchine’s neoclassical ballet. The company also pays tribute to legendary choreographer George Balanchine in another way, performing his Tschaikovsky Pas de Deux.

The St. Louis program includes innovative choreographer Ulysses Dove’s Dancing on the Front Porch of Heaven (Odes to Love and Loss), set to “Cantus in Memory of Benjamin Britten”

by Arvo Pärt, noted as one of the most performed contemporary composers in the world. Dancing on the Front Porch of Heaven,

subtitled Odes to Love and Loss, was choreographed for the Royal Swedish Ballet in 1993 during a challenging period in Ulysses Dove’s life. Having lost 13 close friends and relatives, among them his father, Dove explained, “To me, Arvo Pärt’s music can send souls to heaven. I want to tell an experience in movement, a story without words, and create a poetic monument over people I loved.”

D o v e ’ s s p a re b u t d e m a n d i n g c h o re o g r a p h y i n v i t e s d a n c e r and viewer alike to live in each moment as if it were the last.

Dance St. Louis Artistic & Executive Director Michael Uthoff will host a free program, the Marjorie Orgel Speaking of Dance Series, in the Touhill’s Terrace Lobby at 7:15 p.m. prior to the 8 p.m. performances and at 1:15 p.m. prior to the Saturday 2 p.m. performance.

The Arts Artistic adventures Peabody to host Ghost Brothers of Darkland County

AEG Live announced today the southern gothic, supernatural musical Ghost B ro t h e r s o f D a r k l a n d C o u n t y will tour across North America this Fall. Written by best-selling author Stephen King, with music

by Rock and Roll Hall of Famer John Mellencamp, and musical d i re c t i o n b y G r a m m y Aw a rd winning T-Bone Burnett, the tour kicks off right outside Bangor, ME at the Collins Center For The Arts in Orono, ME, on November 8, travelling through cities such as Toronto, Chicago, New York, a n d Los An g e l e s b e fore wrapping in San Francisco on December 5.

The tour stops in St. Louis on Nov. 29 at the Peabody Opera House.

This extraordinary collaboration 16 years in the making is a haunting tale of fraternal love, lust, jealousy and revenge, performed by an ensemble cast of 15 actors and a four-piece live band, comprised of members of John Me l l en c a mp’ s b a n d . T h e staging of Ghost Brothers is an am alga m o f d i ff ere n t s t y l e s – both old fashioned, resembling a n o l d - s t y l e r a d i o s h o w, a n d yet, modern and unique in its

interactive use of storytelling, music and singing to move the macabre Ghost Brothers story forward.
