¶ Utilities are shutting off power during heat waves
Summer is almost here, and with it will come deadly heat waves supercharged by the climate crisis. Yet in 27 states, it’s perfectly legal for utility companies to shut off electricity on the hottest days of summer, leaving individuals and families without air conditioning in extreme temperatures and threatening their health and safety.
Shutting off power and preventing access to lifesaving air conditioning in the summer can have life-or-death consequences. We need to shine a spotlight on this critical issue and raise our voices to demand change.
Utility companies and local leaders everywhere must act to end utility shutoffs on the hottest days of summer. Save lives — stop the summer shutoffs.

¶ FWC’s bear hunts are barbaric animal abuse
On May 21, bear advocates spoke up for bear families not to be killed, some traveling for hours for the chance to speak in their one-minute allotted time frame.
The majority of speakers were against killing Florida Black Bear families, mirroring similar numbers when tallied in surveys. The Naples Daily News survey showed 92% of Floridians against killing bears.
Four of the FWC commissioners present — Rodeny Barreto, Sonya Rood, Gary Lester and Albert Maury — voted to allow the luring of
bears to feeding stations in order to kill them when they get used to eating there. Only FWC commissioner Steve Hudson did not vote in favor. Additionally, the aforementioned four voted to allow the chasing of bears with dogs. This usually means the chased bear runs exhausted and terrified to climb up a tree, only to be shot down by a group of hunters. The same four commissioners voted to allow the killing of bears on private lands.
Other issues discussed were allowing a group of up to 10 hunters to shoot at one bear, with only one hunter holding a permit to allow the bear killing. There would also be no oversight to the killings, as in any monitor check stations; a hunter could simply email within 24 hours, “Yep, killed a bear.”
The scope of cruel mayhem in the woods that is being planned for bear families is unprecedented, barbaric and out-and-out animal abuse. We applaud Steve Hudson for being the sole voice of humanity on the FWC board, who were appointed by the governor and are not actually conservationists, as the meaning of the word “conserve” is to protect from harm. Blowing apart bear families with rifles or killing them with high-powered bows and arrows, chasing them with packs of dogs and being shot at by up to 10 hunters is not the sort of protecting from harm I would want for my family, would you?

» Home of Maxine’s on Shine owners among two caught in explosion fire
Two Seminole County homes were burned in what fire department officials deemed to be an explosion fire earlier this month — and one of those homes belonged to Maxine and Kirt Earhart, owners of Orlando restaurant Maxine’s on Shine. No one was injured and residents of both homes were present when the fire started, per the Seminole County Fire Department. Officials say the fire is under investigation, but it appears to have started with an explosion in a shed owned by the Earharts, located between the homes. The shed was used as a sewing studio by Maxine Earhart. Maxine and Kirt (and their dog Lucinda) walked away physically unscathed, but their home sustained major damage, and they lost many years’ worth of Maxine’s on Shine memorabilia, along with some catering equipment. The couple has taken to social media to urge the local community to support their restaurant by stopping in. Bites & Bubbles also hosted a dinner-fundraiser for the pair this week with tickets at $50 each and all proceeds going directly to the Earharts. For those who would like to help, there are GoFundMe pages set up for both the Earharts and their neighbors, Kris and Jo.
» Fake QR code scam found on downtown parking meters, OPD says
The Orlando Police Department shared in a recent press release that about 200 fake QR code stickers placed by unknown scammers have been recovered by their officers from parking meters in downtown Orlando. The counterfeit codes reportedly direct users to a fraudulent site and ask for their financial information, instead of directing them to the legitimate parking site parkmobile.io. OPD Financial Crimes Sergeant Michael Fiorentino-Tyburski said the fake QR codes could allow someone to steal the user’s personal information. A real QR code for the city’s parking program is printed directly onto the sticker with a green background, while the fraudulent sticker has a white background and easily peels off, he added. OPD says the public should take precaution by inspecting the QR code for any tampering or stickers, avoid scanning suspicious codes, use official parking apps or payment methods instead of scanning the meter, and report any suspicious or altered QR codes to OPD.
» Breakthru Beverage delivery drivers strike in Orlando
About 170 drivers for beverage distributor Breakthru Beverage across six major Florida cities (including Orlando) went on strike last week over alleged violations of federal labor law. Allegations include unlawful firings of workers and failing to bargain a union contract in good faith. Drivers for Breakthru voted to join the Teamsters last year — despite opposition from their employer — and have been working on negotiating an initial union contact with Breakthru. The company, which made more than $8.5 billion in annual sales last year, has refused to budge on certain demands of the drivers, according to the Teamsters, and recently decided to change the way that drivers are paid without consulting the drivers first. Teamster and Orlando driver Arte Hoffman told Orlando Weekly the new pay structure — they previously worked on commission — could result in losses of $15,000 to $30,000 a year in annual earnings. Federal disclosure reports submitted with the Department of Labor show that Breakthru spent more than $375,000 last year alone on “union avoidance” services (i.e., enlisting union-busters to persuade drivers against organizing). They failed, obviously, and drivers say they’ll be out on strike until Breakthru comes back to the bargaining table ready to negotiate a contract in good faith.
» Salvation Army fined more than $120K after death of Orlando employee on the job
The Salvation Army, an international Christian nonprofit, must pay more than $120,000 in penalties following the preventable death of an Orlando employee who suffered a fatal fall on the job last year, according to the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration. According to OSHA, the 54-year-old male maintenance employee was working to locate and repair a roof leak at Salvation Army’s donation center on West Colonial Drive on the morning of Nov. 7, 2024, when he fell from the roof through a skylight. The man suffered fatal head trauma after landing onto the facility’s concrete floor. Through an investigation, OSHA identified five violations of workplace health and safety regulations at the Orlando donation center. An OSHA news release listed a failure by the nonprofit to assess workplace hazards and a failure to provide fall protection training to employees, among
others. The nonprofit, facing $120,817 in penalties total, also failed to report the workplace death to OSHA within the mandatory eight-hour window, and lacked a hazard communication program.
» DeSantis suspends Osceola County sheriff following arrest on racketeering charges
Gov. Ron DeSantis suspended Osceola County Sheriff Marcos Lopez from office last week, shortly after he was arrested on felony charges of racketeering and conspiracy to commit racketeering. Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier’s Office of Statewide Prosecution charged Lopez and four other individuals in a “massive Central Florida gambling operation,” according to a press release issued by the AG’s office. “Initially engaging the operation for campaign contributions and personal payments, Sheriff Lopez played a multifaceted role in expanding and protecting this illegal enterprise, using his office to shield the enterprise from law enforcement,” the release said. DeSantis has appointed Christopher Blackmon to take over the Osceola County Sheriff’s Department in Lopez’s stead. Blackmon has been serving as the Central Region Chief for the Florida Highway Patrol since November 2023, and before that served as a troop commander and major in the FHP. Lopez was elected Osceola County’s sheriff in 2020 as a Democrat. There have been scandals under Lopez’s tenure, including a 2022 incident in which sheriff’s deputies killed a man driving a car carrying two passengers who were accused of shoplifting $46 worth of pizza and Pokemon cards. Lopez also ended up agreeing to pay a $250 fine last December in a plea deal with then-State Attorney Andrew Bain for posting a photo on social media of a crime victim who was a minor.
NINE YEARS LATER
Pulse survivors and families of victims will finally be able to go inside the club during private tours organized by the city
BY MCKENNA SCHUELER
Nine years after a gunman opened fire in the Orlando LGBTQ nightclub Pulse, killing 49 people and wounding 53, survivor Maritza Gomez is preparing herself to enter the former club for the first time since that night.
So is Christine Leinonen, whose 32-year-old son Christopher bled to death on the club’s dance floor after entering the club that night with his boyfriend, Juan, who also suffered fatal wounds. Christopher, a licensed mental health counselor and Dance Dance Revolution fan, sustained nine gunshot wounds — four to the back of his legs, five to his chest area, according to his mom.
On June 12, 2016, Orlando became the site of the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history at the time — or that’s the line that was reiterated ad nauseam on national news.
Here, in this blue pocket of what was then a purple state, the tragedy felt more intimate. Not a statistic, but a devastating loss that disproportionately affected the city’s vibrant LGBTQ+ community, Latinos and people of color. It was Latin Night, and the club was packed with people who, as survivors and loved ones often say today, “just wanted to dance.”
A permanent memorial to commemorate the lives of the shooting victims and survivors has been years in the making, but is yet to come to fruition. One of the former club owners, Barbara Poma, set up a nonprofit within a month of the shooting to build a memorial. But that nonprofit, the OnePulse Foundation, ultimately shuttered in disgrace at the end of 2023 after raising millions of dollars from public and private donors, without ever breaking ground. City officials moved to purchase the site of the former Pulse nightclub from Poma,
her husband Rosario, and their business partner for $2 million in October 2023, just months before OnePulse’s dissolution.
Citing financial constraints (later revealed to be financial mismanagement), OnePulse declared it would be unable to complete the memorial project and abandoned it. Poma had left the organization by that time, after collecting a six-figure salary as its founder and former CEO. With its dissolution, the nonprofit left Orange County taxpayers with a $51,000 unpaid property tax bill, to boot.
After taking over the memorial project from OnePulse, Orlando leaders set up an advisory committee of survivors, victims’loved ones, and other stakeholders to come up with an appropriate memorial design concept that would honor victims and survivors.
Following months of meetings, the city unveiled the committee’s preferred design concept in February — a sleek, colorful, modern approach, created in collaboration with two local design and architectural firms. The proposed design, to be located at the site of the former club, would incorporate a visitors pavilion, a rainbow prism plaza, a survivors wall, and a reflection pool built at the former location of the club’s dance floor, among other elements. The city plans for the memorial (slated for completion by the end of 2027) to be open 24/7 and free to the public. City officials have cited an estimated cost of roughly $12 million for the project altogether, at least $7.5 million of which the city plans to contribute through general revenue funds.
The city, mindful of its expenditures, has asked the Orange County Commission to contribute $5 million to the project as well — a request unanimously approved by the Orange County board of commissioners last Tuesday.
A formal agreement on the funding commitment, yet to be drawn up, is expected to go before the Commission sometime in the near future.
“I’m not looking for Orange County to be the obstacle to not finally, appropriately paying tribute to those who deserve to be recognized,” said Orange County Mayor Jerry Demings, who served as Orange County sheriff at the time of 2016 tragedy. “If we learn from the failures of the past, just maybe we can get this right.”
City Commissioner Patty Sheehan, an LGBTQ+ elected official herself whose district includes the Pulse property, acknowledged that OnePulse botched the process. A former friend of Barbara Poma’s (though they fell out post-Pulse), Sheehan argued that the city has remained transparent through the process.
“It’s unfortunate that the OnePulse Foundation did things in a way that I disagreed with. I walked away from them because of that,” she admitted, speaking in front of county commissioners last Tuesday. “We hoped they would be successful, but in the end, it’s not illegal to run a not-for-profit into the ground,” she said. Maybe it should be, she added,“and that’s the frustration, is that we’re having to deal with that baggage of the OnePulse Foundation.”
Critics of the city’s handling of the memorial process have pointed to what they believe to be conflicts of interest. Orlando chief protocol officer Earl Crittenden, an appointee of Dyer’s, formerly chaired the OnePulse board of directors. Crittenden, an attorney with the firm GrayRobinson, resigned from his position as OnePulse Foundation chair on Oct. 31, 2023, just two months before the organization officially dissolved.
More recently, Dyer orchestrated local businessman Craig Mateer’s purchase of some property behind Pulse that was previously owned (then sold) by OnePulse. The idea, according to Dyer’s chief of staff Heather Fagan, was to have Mateer later sell that property to the city for the construction of the memorial.
“There’s a process in government of how you purchase property, and there wasn’t time for the city to purchase that property,” Fagan explained last week.“But we felt it was really important that we have that property to support parking, to have things like a restroom and so, we just knew the Pulse site itself was a challenge to accommodate all of that.” Mayor Dyer, she said, decided to ask Mateer — a “community leader, who we know was in a position to be able to purchase that property” — to buy the property so that OnePulse wouldn’t sell it to anyone else. Mateer agreed and bought the property for $1 million. Fagan confirmed the city plans to purchase the same property for the same price later this year.
Meanwhile, Osceola County is working on its own Pulse “tribute” — not a memorial, county spokespeople are quick to clarify — but that process has been delayed, too.
Although a groundbreaking for the “Wings of a Rainbow” tribute was supposed to take place June 12 of this year in Kissimmee, the county announced in a statement last month that they would be moving that to October.
“While an initial aspirational goal of this year’s anniversary was set to open the artistic tribute, we are heartened that the tribute has expanded in scope and will be a fuller experience once opened,” Tyler Winik, a county spokesperson, told Orlando Weekly in a statement.“As with any expansion of a project, additional considerations and time was needed,”he added,“ensuring the project appropriately celebrates the lives of victims and survivors.”
A VISIT INSIDE
The former nightclub, which has for years had its entrances blocked off, will be demolished before construction of the memorial begins next year.
The club has been closed off this entire time. The city announced earlier this year, however, that staff would be scheduling private tours of the site for survivors and victims’ loved ones who wished to

go inside before its demolition — to give them an opportunity for closure.
Tours are set to take place between June 11 and June 14 from about 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. According to the city, the tours (scheduled in shifts) will include some 250 individuals, including 120 people representing families of the 49 victims and 70 survivors. Each survivor may bring one guest or support person, while family groups may comprise up to six people. All are required to sign waivers (reviewed by Orlando Weekly) that confirm they will not take photos or video footage inside the club. In the interest of privacy, media were also asked by the city to refrain from filming visitors as they enter and exit Pulse.
Christine Leinonen told Orlando Weekly she’s preparing for the visit by “talking to Christopher,” her son, and by talking with her sister and her niece, who grew up with Christopher.“Keeping busy with projects at home distracts me,” Leinonen wrote in a text. She’s also preparing questions for the Federal Bureau of Investigations, which will be holding a closed meeting with victims’ families and survivors next week. The FBI will also have victims specialists touring with family and survivors inside the club, alongside bilingual behavioral health specialists and clergy, the city confirmed.
Leinonen, along with dozens of others involved in the grassroots group Pulse Families and Survivors for Justice, has for years advocated for a third-party inspection of the Pulse nightclub and a criminal investigation into the former owners. Critics have long alleged blocked exits and other code violations that could have prevented escape.
Some survivors have accused the city of being complicit in the OnePulse foundation’s failings (an allegation disputed by city officials), as well as delays in the public safety response to the shooting.
Although the shooting began around 2 a.m., Orlando police didn’t enter the building until about 5 a.m. According to 911 call records later released by the city, one caller at 4:55 a.m. asked a dispatcher, “Where are they?” referring to OPD.“I don’t understand. Everyone’s getting worse. Where are they?”
Another injured caller, around 2:11 a.m., told a dispatcher he was hiding under a pile of bodies in one of the bathrooms.
A 2018 study, published in the medical journal Prehospital Emergency Care, found that of the 49 people who died from the Pulse nightclub massacre, 16 of the fatalities (32 percent) “were felt to have been potentially preventable,” based on a review of autopsy reports.
Leinonen, who waited over 30 hours after the shooting to receive confirmation of her son’s death, believes Christopher was one of them. She said she’s not sure how she will feel upon entering the site of the massacre.
“There is going to be a lot of sadness over thinking about my son who was the child of 2 police officers who he loved and respected,” she said in a text.“Believing that the police outside would come for him. While he bled to death.” She added, “If my son could endure catastrophic lethal damage … the least I could do is see where he took his last breath.” mschueler@orlandoweekly.com
COLD AS ICE
‘Immigrants
Are Welcome Here’ coalition urges county to guarantee due process for detainees
BY MCKENNA SCHUELER
Acouple of Orange County commissioners became visibly upset during their regular Board meeting last week in response to a coalition of labor, immigrant and human rights groups that showed up to demand due process rights for undocumented immigrants detained in the local jail.
The Immigrants Are Welcome Here coalition, made up of over 30 local organizations, mobilized at least two dozen people to ask the Orange County Commission to rework the language in a contract the county has with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement that allows ICE to detain people in the county jail who are accused of being in the country illegally.
Currently, rights advocates told Orlando Weekly that the jail isn’t tracking the legal status of those detained when they’re brought in by ICE officers, or those acting under ICE authority — and that matters, since due process protections vary based on the legal status of noncitizens. Jail officials, they said, also aren’t permitted to share information about those detained with the public, including loved ones, under the county’s current agreement.
Orange County Corrections did not respond to a request for comment from Orlando Weekly to confirm this. But Corrections Chief Louis Quinones Jr. shared, during a similarly contentious board meeting back in April, “ICE is bringing those individuals to us and we’re holding them. … We don’t know what they’ve done that would afford ICE that opportunity to bring them to us. We’re just housing them overnight, is what we’re doing, until they go to another facility.”
Ericka Gomez-Tejeda, organizing director for the Hope CommUnity Center, said this lack of transparency has made it difficult for families (and immigration attorneys) to figure out where their loved ones are or where they may be heading next.
“It’s very difficult for people to know what their rights are if there’s no one available to know where they are and how to represent them,”Gomez-Tejeda told Orlando Weekly last Tuesday.
Activists pleaded with commissioners to ensure due process for those detained — a constitutional requirement of the government to follow laws and fair procedures. Under the U.S. Constitution, due process rights are guaranteed to everyone in the U.S., including noncitizens.
“Children are afraid,” said Sister Anna Kendrick, co-founder of the Hope CommUnity Center, who’s advocated for immigrants and farmworkers for half a century.“It’s unconscionable,”she said. People “get lost” when they’re taken into custody, she added, “and we can’t find them.”
“They can’t call home. They can’t know who they’re talking to. It’s unconscionable. We have to stop that,” Kendrick pleaded.“Please do something.”
As of 2023, nearly one-quarter of Orange County’s population was foreign-born, according to U.S. Census Bureau data. The county, a blue spot in an otherwise largely red state, is home to sizable populations of Mexican, Venezuelan, Haitian and Colombian immigrants. Florida, broadly, is also the most common residence for Temporary Protective Status holders, according to the Brookings Institution. TPS holders are nationals who are legally permitted to temporarily live and work in the U.S. if they come from certain countries, like Venezuela or Haiti, that are experiencing political turmoil or other unsafe conditions.
“Orange County is home to thousands of Venezuelans, Haitians, Cubans, Nicaraguans, where legal status can now be revoked,”Gomez-Tejeda told the county board. “These residents who have now legally lived here and worked here after fleeing from state violence and political oppression in their own home countries, they have just become the most vulnerable immigrants for erroneous detentions and deportations because ICE has their home address, car tax and workplace locations,” she said. Dozens of municipal and university law enforcement agencies in Florida, including the University of Central Florida and Orlando Police Department, have entered into agreements with ICE that effectively deputize law enforcement officers to act as immigration agents. There are more than 600 such agreements now in place across the country, and 43 percent of them are in Florida.
President Donald Trump, who’s on a mission to conduct the “largest deportation operation in American history,” has waffled when questioned on the due process rights of noncitizens detained by ICE. When asked by NBC News’ Meet the Press last month about whether he needs to uphold the Constitution of the United States as U.S. president, Trump responded, “I don’t know,” adding, “I have to respond by saying, again, I have brilliant lawyers that work for me, and they are going to obviously follow what the Supreme Court said.”
Orange County Mayor Jerry Demings, a former police chief and county sheriff, argued that Orange County Jail officials are treating those detained by ICE in their facility “humanely.”
“As someone who spent a career in law enforcement, I have the greatest admiration for the people who do enforce the laws of our nation, our state and our local government,” he said. “While those individuals are within our custody, we provide them with information about the due process. We cannot
represent them in that process — that is not a function of our role as county government.” Demings told activists they should bring their concerns to federal officials, not local officials who are under orders to comply with federal mandates.
“We’re doing what we can to work within the system that we did not create here at the local level,” he said.
County commissioner Nicole Wilson, however, appeared dissatisfied with the mayor’s response, sharing concern about how their actions as local officials would hold up.
“I believe, in my heart of hearts, that being told as a local government that we had to detain people that have not committed crimes, that have not been given their full due process rights because the federal government told us we have to, is not legal,” she said. Wilson was one of just two county commissioners who voted against entering into a 287(g) agreement with ICE in March.
Corrections Chief Quinones has himself admitted that some of the individuals detained in the jail by ICE are held only on the charge that they are in the country illegally — but no other accusation of committing a crime. From Jan. 1 to May 10, more than 400 inmates booked into the jail were held only on an ICE detainer.
“We hear you,” Commissioner Mike Scott told activists last week “We are fighting a battle on so many fronts.” Local elected officials, he pointed out, have been threatened with removal from office for daring to not comply with immigration enforcement mandates. “I’m not afraid of a fight, but we have to be strategic,” he said.
Kelly Semrad, however — the only other commissioner to join Wilson in voting against the 287(g) agreement — took a different tone, her eyes brimming with tears. Semrad’s own grandfather came to the U.S. from Mexico.“We voted [the agreement] through because we felt compelled to comply to state law, but you know what? I’m not afraid to be removed if I’m going to stand with all of these people and hold up the American flag and wave it and demand due process,” she declared, her voice breaking.
Advocates with the immigrant rights coalition have already urged Orange County commissioners to reconsider one of their contracts with ICE, and to draft a trigger resolution to cancel the contract if the courts rule it’s no longer mandated. According to Gomez-Tejeda, the 287(g) contract between Orange County and ICE is mandatory. But the intergovernmental services agreement that allows ICE to detain people in the local jail temporarily is not.
The call to ensure due process for immigrants detained in the Orange County Jail has reached a broad swath of the community, from coalition members like the League of Women Voters to labor unions that represent many immigrant workers.
“This is my passion because I’m an immigrant, I went through the process, so I know everybody’s afraid right now,”said UNITE HERE Local 737 member Isaie Marc, a U.S. citizen who immigrated to the U.S. from Haiti 26 years ago. “The public should be aware that those are humans, right?” Marc said. “They deserve the right to a due process.” mschueler@orlandoweekly.com

Mado Smith explores the Floridian experience, memory and grief
at Casselberry Sculpture House
BY LOLA FONTANEZ
Local artist Mado Smith explores the Floridian experience, memory and grief in an intimate multimedia exhibition at the Casselberry Sculpture House.
Smith’s Florida Water, a cheeky reference to both the corner-store fragrance and the state’s literal waterways, aims to guide audiences through their own memories and dreams.
Born and raised in Lake Mary, Smith grew up
in the greater Central Florida area and has recently returned after leaving to attend the College of Charleston in 2005. After nearly 20 years in Charleston, Smith has found his way back to his Floridian roots.
When he arrived back in Orlando late 2024, Smith applied for an artist grant offered by United Arts Central Florida “on a whim.” And he got it. The road to this resulting residency at the
Sculpture House was not an easy one, after losing a few different venues in search of the perfect one. In a strange twist of fate, Smith found his perfect site across the street from his late grandfather’s automotive shop.
“There’s just been a lot of healing and breakthroughs in coming down here,” says Smith. “I feel like it’s in the water and the sun. There’s something really special about Florida.”
Smith’s use of vibrant colors and bold brushstrokes lends itself to the dreamlike imagery he depicts. The exhibition is largely inspired by the experience of natural Florida through the eyes of its residents. Smith hopes to emphasize Florida’s distinctive and untamed identity, something often left out of tourists’ sightlines.
“Florida is just the strangest mix of the oldest, wildest nature that refuses to give up and some of the newest cemented infrastructure of modern living,” Smith explains. “They have a strange harmony down here and neither of them [will] give up.”
Through June 27

With over 100 pieces on display, Smith has been preparing for this show the past few months. After settling into the Sculpture House, he’s been in a flow state, living among his art.
“I painted literally all last night until sunrise and it’s been a dream,” shares Smith. “I cannot stop creating. It’s all in constant fluidity.”
His works in Florida Water often feature bright human figures and animals interacting with bits of nature against lush backdrops. The large-scale, site-specific charcoal tapestries create a humid atmosphere in the Sculpture House as guests explore the exhibition. Other works wield vivid color to playfully portray Florida’s macabre essence through classic monsters.
“When you think of Florida, you think of the Sunshine State but there’s also this charming and kind of goth-like obsession with old Universal monsters,” says Smith. “There’s this weird dichotomy in Florida culture where we’re also cool with the darker side of things amongst all the sunshine.”
In addition to his visual art, Smith will hold a concert at the Sculpture House on the evening of June 21. The compositions he performs are a part of an upcoming album. Smith’s overarching goal is to curate a community space and foster human connection through both visual art and music.
Smith’s music is just as versatile as the visual art in the exhibit. He cites influences from both classic Americana and modern R&B, hoping to find space for innovation between the varying genres. He says that the performances, surrounded by his artwork, will highlight the multidisciplinary goal of his residency.
“I think the whole experience is the installation,” reveals Smith.“Me just being here, creating stuff in the place, making music and writing songs in the place — I’m realizing that might be the biggest piece of it all.”
Smith references Fruits, the weekly gathering at Orlando restaurant Kaya hosted by his fellow artist and friend Boy Kong, as a big inspiration for developing creative third spaces that bring people together.
Smith is a co-founder of the Circle Square Triangle Collective, a project composed of a group of artists that aims to give back to the Central Florida community through the arts. Smith hopes to expand this residency into a yearly show that incorporates other local artists.
“Some of this is me working out my dream, which is just always to be interdisciplinary, both a musician and an artist,” Smith says. “To have people have these transformative, encompassing experiences within a space.”

MADO SMITH: FLORIDA WATER
Orlando themed entertainment superstars Anitra Pritchard and Patrick Braillard helped bring Epic Universe’s shows and attractions across the finish line. And this week we’re giving them the spotlight
My recent column critiquing some shortcomings of Universal’s new theme park provoked some pointed responses, so this week I’m pleased to be pointing the spotlight at a pair of people who contributed to one category where Epic Universe undeniably excels: shows and live entertainment. Anitra Pritchard and Patrick Braillard each started at Universal Orlando as performers over 20 years ago, then shifted into show direction during the mid-2000s. Three years ago, she became senior manager of show direction and he became senior show writer, tasked with helping bring Epic Universe’s long-developing shows and attractions across the finish line. I’ve known them both through Orlando’s theater community since long before they became themed entertainment superstars, so it was wonderfully surreal interviewing them about dragons and monsters while surrounded by celebrities and international press at last month’s grand opening celebration.
When did you start working on Epic and what were your responsibilities?
Anitra Pritchard: I heard about Epic Universe at the same time as everyone else, years and years ago. But then when I was brought onto the team, my first day, I went traveling, and I met a lot of different projects, people with projects and we went from there. … Supporting [Universal] Creative, I worked a lot on entertainment, and I actually did all the auditions and casting for the entire team here at Epic Universe. I was the
creative show director for [Isle of] Berk, and I worked closely with the Untrainable [Dragon] show as well.
Patrick Braillard: In ’21 I got signed on as a senior show writer for Epic Universe, handling Wizarding World of Harry Potter Ministry of Magic and How to Train Your Dragon Isle of Berk, and then in ’22 came on full time as a senior show writer for Epic Universe. … The narrative design of a theme park really begins at the very beginning. We are in every single conceptual meeting, and I’m only one of many different show writers that have taken on the challenge of not only doing the conception, but also the development of these parks. I’m one of the last in a very long line of people, and all of those narrative designers are clued into the idea of making sure that every word that you hear in the park, every word that you see, as well as all the signage, the nomenclature of the buildings, the different things on the menus, everything that has words attached to it [and] every bit of text [is checked] for consistency and cohesiveness.
How do you coordinate with intellectual property partners to faithfully represent their characters?
AP: We have a stellar, stellar group of Vikings out there, and people that are just willing to actually work with dragons, because dragons can be a little temperamental. We’ve got all the dragon huts around, so you can tell that we have tons and hundreds of dragons around. It’s mainly wrangling them in and working with Universal Creative and DreamWorks Animation and Universal Pictures. They really gave us the prowess on how to really wrangle a dragon and work with a dragon.
PB: To collaborate with our intellectual property partners, we have to make sure that we are toeing the line and staying in their sandbox while still expanding out the stories. … What’s wonderful about our relationship with all of our different partners is that we have the opportunity to be able to collaborate and ask them, not only for assets, but also be able to figure out how we can push the bounds of their stories within their rules. So when you get the defined set of rules from them, and they are very particular about certain things, which is great; because
when you have those rules, you get to do things like the Battle at the Ministry. That is almost a deleted scene from the film that you didn’t get a chance to see. And that’s really what we’re all about, is trying to figure out a way to give the guests an opportunity to stay grounded and in touch with the things that made it important to them, but give them something new and slightly surprising.
Why so many dragon butts in Berk?
AP: Dragons are very proud of their tails and a lot of dragons, it actually defines who they are. And also a lot of dragons, when they eat a lot of fish or chicken, sometimes they have a hard time fitting into their huts. So the best way they can fit in there to take a nap is to have their bottoms hanging out.
How did you approach updating Universal’s Classic Monsters for Epic?
PB: There were some things that were a little bit heavier of a lift. Working with our partners over at Universal Pictures, and getting the Dark Universe where we needed to be, was a really fun experiment. Being able to figure out where the content creation comes in with what’s canon, because that world takes place in 2025. It’s a sequelization to the original films, so you have to figure out what happened to the Bride? What happened to Henry [Frankenstein], what happened to the manor, what happened to Darkmoor? … Being a small part of that was an amazing thing.
What is the status of fountain shows in Celestial Park?
AP: Between day and night, you’re going to see roughly 15 to 17 different fountain shows that are synced to our music. Some of them are shorter than others, because we want to make sure that guests are seeing something new each time they watch a fountain show. But at night, they’ve gathered the fountain shows from all of the worlds, so you’re going to see a bigger show for our closing fountain show. We’re still looking into [fireworks]; we’re still working on it.
What’s your favorite easily overlooked element in Epic Universe?
PB: I love the fact that people walk by the well in Darkmoor [inscribed in Latin with a vampiric warning] without really understanding the significance. That makes me really, really happy that they walk by not understanding what that thing is actually for.
AP: All of the entertainment is a total surprise and delight, but there’s little pockets of experiences in every single world that people could turn a corner and discover something they’ve never seen before, even if they’ve been here numerous times. Like our living portraits over in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter Ministry of Magic; you have to go around a corner and really look for them, and once you see them, it is something you will never forget.

PACKING HEAT
Mirchi Indian Street Food in Winter Garden fuses
flamboyance with flavor and straight fire
BY FAIYAZ KARA
Ican’t think of a restaurant interior in this city more wildly polychromatic than the one at Mirchi Indian Street Food in Winter Garden. Its Bollywood-meets-Umbrellas of Cherbourg aesthetic puts diners at risk of sensory whiplash — its walls awash in the reds, yellows and oranges of Indian film posters forced my neck upward from the colorful adverts, newspaper clippings and South Asian comics embossed on tabletops. Then there are the scores of inverted parasols in every imaginable hue adorning the restaurant’s ceiling, not to mention the front grill of a Tata bus. And if that weren’t cervically straining enough, a television behind a Jodhpurian blue counter aired the Indian subcontinent’s most beloved sport — cricket.
But what ultimately stabilized our collective craniums wasn’t the barrage of sixes struck by the batsmen on the Gujurat Titans, but the hits coming out of Mirchi’s kitchen. No surprise that the spicing here veers towards the wicked — “Mirchi,” after all means “chili pepper,” and a red hot forms part of the restaurant’s logo. The chicken 65, a deep-fried South Indian burner, is the best $9 you’ll spend on chicken anywhere. The reddened morsels are topped with tadka — garlic, green chilies, curry leaves and other
spices bloomed in hot oil — for added heat (and comfort). Even cold, hollowed-out puris filled with seasoned potatoes ($8) yielded fragrant bombs of fire. The Mumbai-style pani puri were topped with crunchy bits of sev (noodles made from chickpea flour), yogurt and sweet and spicy chutneys. It was an impressive start to our meal, which only got better with a ghee karam masala dosa ($12), a rice-and-lentil crepe filled with seasoned potatoes and served with four dips — coconut chutney, sambar, rasam and a gunpowder/ghee mix — the “ghee karam” that lends the dish its name.
The veg set should also get behind the amal butter vada pav ($8) and place the meatless handheld into their regular rotation. Between those two airy and butter-glistening dinner rolls is a spiced potato fritter that the meat lovers in my party wholly appreciated. Dip it into the side of gunpowder, then chomp into the fried green chili, and you’ll go out in a blaze of glory. BTW, you get two of these for $8.
Another veg delight: pav bhaji ($10). Those buttered rolls are a vessel for this iconic Mumbai street staple centered around a heady curry. The puree of assorted vegetables — peas, beans, potatoes, carrots, cauliflower — is emboldened
MIRCHI INDIAN STREET FOOD 1021 S. Dillard St., Winter Garden 407-347-3777 mirchiwg.com $$
by the masala, particularly the bite of mango powder, that flavors it.
On the other end of the flavor spectrum is the “Triple Szechwan” fried rice ($15), an IndoChinese offering that saw a fried egg garnished with crispy noodles sitting atop the wok-fried kernels. A bowl of gravy fashioned from veg, soy sauce and a cornstarch slurry is meant to be poured over the heap, and the messy combination somehow, bizarrely, worked. If there was a dish that didn’t, it was the paneer tikka keema sandwich ($9). I wasn’t a fan of the soft and mushy texture of the spiced cheese crumbles mixed with diced onions and peppers, though others in my party thought it was done “just right.”
In any case, it only served to fan the flames in our bellies, which necessitated some sweets. First, gulab jamun ($5), served warm as it always should be. But it was the rabdi — cooked-down milk scented with cardamom — that accompanied fried jalebi ($5) really proved palliative, as did a cup of truly stellar chai ($4).
But for a restaurant named after a chili pepper, the soothing sweets were outliers. Mirchi is all about the spice, so take heed before entering. Their dishes come out of the frying pan and into the fire.

HER FAVORITE THINGS
Orlando musician Hannah Stokes talks upcoming album Right Where I Belong
BY JESSICA BATTISTI
Orlando-based singer-songwriter Hannah Stokes can’t recall the precise moment she first heard Julie Andrews’ “My Favorite Things”; it was likely while watching The Sound of Music for the first time or perhaps on a Christmas radio station. But there are two things she absolutely knows: It’s her mom’s favorite song, and John Coltrane’s 1961 version has an inspiring, “crazy, ripping saxophone.” A cover of the iconic track is one of the singles from Stokes’ upcoming debut album, Right Where I
Belong — an expansive project that highlights her journey as a young folk singer-songwriter to the well-rounded musician she is today. Incorporating classical training with the sultry sounds of bossa nova, jazz, soul and R&B, as well as her intimate storytelling skills, Stokes has created a unique niche in Orlando’s music scene. She debuts the album’s title track at Tuffy’s Music Box on Friday, ahead of the full record release later this summer. The show features what Stokes calls a “dream line-up” of Megan
Shea and Morgan Joyce Hart, plus some impromptu collaborations.
A chance encounter at the release show for Stokes’ 2022 EP, Hollow Bones, culminated in Stokes joining up with local label Raised Eden Records. With label bosses Jordan Morales and Vanessa Poulson, Stokes began assembling what was initially intended to be a five-song EP, but will soon be the full-length Right Where I Belong.
The tracks that make up the album showcase Stokes’ emotional and artistic journey, from one of the first songs she ever wrote more than a decade ago to her most recent song, finished only last month.
“Most of my work really involves exploring identity and purpose and growing up and just being a human, which is a process that never ends,” Stokes tells Orlando Weekly.
She credits her steady gravitation toward soul and jazz over the earlier, indie-folk sounds of Hollow Bones to her studies of voice, classical music and musical theater at Valencia and Rollins College, as well as covering classic Motown tracks with her band.
“That really changed the way that I feel music and hear music,” Stokes says.
HANNAH STOKES BAND
8 p.m. Friday, June 13
Tuffy’s Music Box
Her 2023 single “How Could This Love Be So,” featuring a rap verse from Zoetic, was the first recorded evidence of Stokes’ changing sounds. The singer cites Marvin Gaye, Bill Withers, Roberta Flack, Stevie Wonder and 1970s Aretha Franklin as her main influences.
Stokes will pay tribute to Franklin on the album with a cover of “I Say a Little Prayer,” combining Franklin’s classic reading with British singer-songwriter Lianne La Havas’ arrangement of the song, all tied together with Stokes’ bossa-fied approach.
But despite the covers, you overlook Stokes’ songwriting at your peril. The singer-songwriter says the intimate tracks come easiest to her; songs like “Glory,” “Crazy Woman” and “Landscapes” are prime examples.
“I’m so proud of those songs because of how complicated and difficult those emotions can be to experience,” Stokes says. “And then to sit with them and express them was like, monumental for me. I feel like they’re really going to hit people because of how immediate and honest they feel.” When asked about whether or not she feels pressured for her music to fit into a genre “box,” Stokes replies, “As an artist, it doesn’t seem like it’s a problem, but then trying to quickly get people to understand or know if they are interested or going to like it? That’s really the challenge.”
Although Stokes says cohesion is somewhat a concern in putting this record out, the mosaic of influences that make up Right Where I Belong feels representative of her artistry and experiences learning and growing in the City Beautiful. And through hosting no less than three scene-building showcases regularly — the “Inspired By,” “Songwriters Rising” and “Songwriters in the Round” meetups — Stokes has built a reputation as a cultivator of local artistry in the community.
“Being exposed to really great and creative songwriters every month has been a cool thing,” Stokes says, “to connect, to get inspired and to motivate each other to keep going.”
Whether or not Stokes is “right where she belongs” all depends on the day. Sometimes she’s doing the right things in the right places, and at other times it can all feel like it’s going terribly wrong. But being a part of the Raised Eden family has given her the support and confidence to grow as an artist.
“It’s meant a lot to me artistically to have somebody that shares my vision and sometimes has a vision beyond mine and brings me up into it,” Stokes says. “So having Jordan to work with and Vanessa to work with to develop that has given me a lot of security in the trajectory of my art.”

Even more than just being a scene of international renown back in the 1990s rave boom, Orlando has the rare distinction of birthing its own music subgenre. Although sometimes generally called “Florida breaks,” Orlando was, without question, the epicenter of breaks and our DJs were its pioneers.
The influence of Orlando breaks was widespread by the mid-1990s, enough to reverberate across the pond to influence a whole new school of U.K. breaks artists far funkier than their legendary breakbeat predecessors. The excellent British DJ Nick Newton even released a 1996 record titled Orlando.
One of the most auspicious signs of any legacy is when young practitioners pick up the torch and carry on the heritage. In recent years, some new artists have taken up the mantle and released tracks that directly reference Orlando breaks. Well, the latest local notable to follow in these hallowed footsteps was born a world away and years after the original breaks era. DJ-producer Arina Krondeva has been
“I actually got into breaks after a couple of years of being in Orlando,” says Krondeva. Once bitten, she was smitten. As soon as she linked with Averina Singh to become queer DJ duo Rinas, Krondeva says,“We went heavy on breaks, bass, electro because that was the sound that we both really enjoyed.”
Once Rinas dissolved in 2024, Krondeva stayed on the breaks train, steering it in fresh new directions with her own original music. After a couple of single releases, she’s now dropped her debut solo collection, the six-track Scattered EP.
From the liquid bass kick that pumps throughout, it’s clear that Krondeva is a breaks disciple. But unlike the booming anthems of DJ Icey, her minimalist odysseys tunnel down an alternate IDM path. “A big part of that is because of my wife and her love of experimental music,” Krondeva says. “I also just like to experiment with sound design and see what comes out of it, layer those weird blips on a beat.”
While Krondeva’s beats thump with enough funk and groove to hook any true basshead, her instrumentals tend toward outer orbits. With detailing that’s minimalist and otherworldly, her neo-breaks are a cerebral spin on a classic style known more for jacking pulses than plumbing the mind.
The Scattered EP provides the most robust composite of Arina Krondeva so far, and the picture that’s already emerging is of a new breaks hope that’s one of the most forward-thinking of her class. Scattered now streams everywhere.
CONCERT PICKS THIS WEEK
From the liquid bass kick that pumps throughout Scattered, it’s clear that DJproducer Arina Krondeva is a breaks disciple. But unlike the booming anthems of DJ Icey, her minimalist odysseys tunnel down an alternate IDM path
spinning around town the past several years, but she’s originally from St. Petersburg — that’s Russia, not Florida. After coming to the Sunshine State for college, the 25-year-old joined the electronic music scene and was drawn into the native sound.
Hollow Leg, Florist, Gnarcoossee, Trash World: Premier local heavy band Hollow Leg charged back from the brink of existence last year with the back-to-back releases of the Dust and Echoes EPs. Now, the sludge-groove destroyers are celebrating the release of those triumphant comebacks as a combined double-barrel LP titled Dust and Echoes. Orlando support includes the headlong metal of Gnarcoossee and the punk metal of Trash World. Of particular note are Tampa openers Florist, who sound suspiciously lovely on a nasty bill like this until you learn that the only thing these guys arrange are fuzz-thick, smoked-out riff sessions that’ll make you wanna ride high and get higher. (7 p.m. Thursday, June 12, Will’s Pub, $12-$15)
The Forum, Lady Heroine, Bobby’s Daughter: Although Orlando band The Forum have been around for nearly a decade, they’ve only done occasional small releases. But on Friday, the capable indie-lite rockers will finally unveil their first full album. Nearly half the record has already been released as singles, so expect the 10-song All We’ll Ever Be to be a reliable collection of ready-for-radio anthems. Opening will be alt-pop-rock band Lady Heroine and Bobby’s Daughter, the promising new moody pop project of Elise Stürup. (8 p.m. Friday, June 13, Will’s Pub, $22.21) baolehuu@orlandoweekly.com

Pride Under Attack: Defending LGBTQ+ Rights
In the midst of a Pride month definitely dampened — to say the least — by a state and federal government-wide attack against LGBTQ+ folks, the League of Women Voters hosts a forum to figure out ways to fight back. Moderator Gina Duncan convenes a panel consisting of George Wallace of The LGBTQ+ Center Orlando, Heather Wilkie of Zebra Youth, Nathan Bruemmer of Equality Florida and Gabriella Rodriguez of QLatinx. Topics of discussion include the current state of play in the state and federal legislatures, ways to fight back against harmful laws and bills, what to look for in the coming months, and where we stand as far as gender markers on identification and passports. This one will probably get impassioned and hopefully very loud, as it should.
11:30 a.m., Winter Park Events Center, 1050 W. Morse Blvd., Winter Park, lwvoc.org, $30-$37.

Pulse Remembrance Ceremony
Nine years following the Pulse Nightclub shooting in 2016, First United Methodist Church of Orlando hosts a remembrance ceremony this week. The observance honors the 49 people killed in the mass shooting, as well as survivors, families, first responders and trauma teams all impacted by the tragedy. In commemoration, the event begins with the reading of the names of all 49 people and the tolling of 49 bells in their honor. The ceremony also features remarks from family members and survivors, along with musical tributes. There will be a livestream available on the Pulse Orlando website for those who cannot attend in person.

Peter Hook & the Light
For a certain segment of the (post-)punk and alternative nations, Peter Hook is their Lemmy. The sturdy, nearly 70-year-old bassist and singer lives rock & roll in a way that few others do — complete with bass slung so scandalously low it threatens to scrape the floor — and has lived to tell the tale. (Seriously, he’s written books.) For the last few years, Hook has led backing ensemble The Light on extensive live romps through his storied discography as part of seminal Brit acts Joy Division and New Order. On this tour, Hooky and Co. revisit New Order’s 2001 record Get Ready, one of Hook’s last with the band he helped found, but one he looks back on fondly as a “honeymoon record.” For the deep cut-averse, a rich selection of treasures from Joy Division and New Order are also promised. 8 p.m., The Plaza Live, 425 N. Bumby Ave., plazaliveorlando.org, $73-$101. — MM

Josie & Grace: A Mostly Historical Cabaret Dream Play
A spin-off of sorts from the locally made theatrical hit Josephine, musical Josie and Grace comes to the Dr. Phil this week. From the innovative mind of star Tymisha Harris and the folks behind Josephine, Josie and Grace follows the (mostly historically accurate) adventures of actress and activist Josephine Baker and actress-turned-princess Grace Kelly. A critical and audience fave at the 2021 Fringe Festival, Josie and Grace dramatizes the often-turbulent friendship of Baker and Kelly, taking place in the latter years of Baker’s life from the 1950s through the 1970s. Their enduring friendship happens against very real backdrops of racism, the political climate(s) of the times, and Baker’s and Kelly’s changing fortunes. Though set decades ago, you’ll find plenty to relate to

Lauren Sanderson
Just in time for Pride month, lesbian alt-pop musician Lauren Sanderson is taking over the Social on her “Girl From the Internet” tour. The Los Angeles-based artist is best known for her viral TikTok track “Therapy!,” as well as a collaboration with Australian pop-singer GFLIP, “Gay4me.” Sanderson’s online presence has been key in her rise to fame; she built a YouTube channel as a teen that led to a subsequent TEDx Talk on religion and sexuality. After years of motivational speeches and online activism, Sanderson took her following with her as she transitioned to music. With her high-energy and interactive performances, Sanderson’s shows promise an unapologetic celebration of queer identity and culture. Each show also has a different themed attire, if concert-goers want to plan outfits accordingly: “Masc 4 Masc” is the Orlando show’s theme. 6 p.m., The Social, 54 N. Orange Ave., foundation-presents.com, $23-$100. — LF

Leanne Morgan
Before she went viral for a video teasing her husband and the elderly at a Journey and Def Leppard concert, comedian Leanne Morgan did stand-up for over two decades. Now, at 59, the mother of three and grandmother of two is on her “Just Getting Started” tour, coming to the Addition Financial Arena this week. The Knoxville native is best known for her Netflix special I’m Every Woman and starring alongside Reese Witherspoon and Will Ferrell in the recent film You’re Cordially Invited. Morgan’s personal
comedic style — sharing stories of everyday life, womanhood and post-motherhood freedom — partnered with her folksy accent, make for a charming and relatable performance that resonates with her audience. Joking about her thyroid, comparing perimenopause to a ghost in the night, and looking into the crowd and surmising everyone there is “on a good probiotic,” Morgan knows her audience and proves it’s never too late to achieve your goals. 7 p.m., Additional Financial Arena, 12777 Gemini Blvd N., additionfiarena.com, $39-$98. — Jessica Battisti

10th Annual Juneteenth Celebration In Hannibal Square
This year’s Juneteenth Celebration hosted by the Hannibal Square Heritage Center, “Remembering, Knowing and Shifting the Narrative,” will, in many ways, be celebrating resistance. The day commemorates the ending of slavery in the United States on June 19, 1865, when Union General Gordon Granger announced the Civil War had ended and all enslaved people were free, two years after the
signing of the Emancipation Proclamation. And now here we are in a time of state and federal governments’ anti-DEI rampages. The celebration and observance — held at the historic Ward Chapel — features guest speakers and conversations around, yes, diversity, equity and inclusion. Attendees can also take guided tours of the Heritage Center’s permanent collection of historic photographs and oral Southern history, and partake of refreshments. 10 a.m., Ward Chapel AME Church, 160 S. Pennsylvania Ave., Winter Park, hannibalsquareheritagecenter. org, free. — LF

At first glance, Harry (A571119) is just a big puppy: goofy, strong, sweet and with very little focus. And we are here to tell you that Harry is also very mouthy, and loves to gnaw and nip at leashes, hands, arms, legs — pretty much anything. In all honesty, Harry will be a difficult dog to own if you’re not the right person, because someone didn’t show Harry the rules when he was a small pup, and now he’s bigger, stronger and harder to control. Harry will need patience, training, and most importantly, time.
But this is why we are being transparent about his behavior. As difficult as Harry is, we know inside there’s a really good dog. With sufficient exercise and consistent training, Harry shows promise. After a long day outside, walked and worn out, Harry is cuddly, affectionate and ready for love. It takes a lot to tire him out, and we know not everyone will have the time or energy. But we do know that it can be done, and we also know that there is someone out there who is willing to do it. Let’s get him seen. Let’s get him home.
Orange County Animal Services is located at 2769 Conroy Road in Orlando, near the Mall at Millenia. The shelter is open 10 a.m.-6 p.m. every day except Wednesday, when it’s open 2-6 p.m. For more information, please call 407-8363111 or visit ocnetpets.com.
