The Tennessee Williams Theatre Company of New Orleans presents Camino Real

Kid Trails

BY WILL COVIELLO MANY OF TENNESSEE WILLIAMS’ bestknown works are set in unmistakable places. A Streetcar Named Desire is set in and inextricably linked to New Orleans. Cat on a Hot Tin Roof reveals a family’s pathos on a Mississippi plantation, home of its patriarch Big Daddy.

Williams’ Camino Real, which debuted on Broadway under the direction of Elia Kazan in 1953, has a more surreal setting, though the Tennessee Williams Theatre Company of New Orleans is mounting it in part because of its sense of timeliness.

“We have police brutality perpetrated on a black person in the first 15 minutes of the show,” says director Augustin Correro. “The totalitarian government keeps poor people on the poor side of town.

There’s hints at a travel ban. It’s really timely.”

Camino Real takes place in a mysterious border town, with each block stranger than the last. Kilroy, an American soldier and former boxer, has stumbled into town and tries to adjust to its strange ways.

The play has its own sense of timelessness. Stray figures from literature and history live in the city or visit, including the buffoonish would-be Spanish knight Don Quixote and the Romantic poet Lord Byron.

Italian philanderer Casanova solicits Marguerite, the courtesan from Camille, and she tells him “Distrust is the defense against betrayal.”

Much of the drama takes place in a plaza in the center of town, with a fountain in the shadow of a border wall. A line separates the rich and the poor sections of town, and residents are cautious about crossing it. There’s an authoritarian air to the place, and even the street sweepers circle

TUE. JULY 25 | Patrick Jeffords and Andy Woodward — bassist and drummer for Chaz Bundick’s Toro y Moi — make sweet, summery indie pop on their own time as Kid Trails, whose self-released 2016 debut Kid Trails Rising luxuriates in a lo-fi haze with top-down, beach-bound breezy hooks. Those Lavender Whales and Silk open at 10 p.m. at Siberia.

Megaphone Marathons

ominously, carting away the dead.

Camino real means “royal road” in Spanish, and Williams turns the phrase.

“You never know exactly where you’ll end up on the Camino Real,” Correro says. “You come to the end of the Camino Real — to the walled city. It’s not the royal road anymore. It’s the real road.”

But the city also is a magical place.

A fortune-telling Gypsy is excited to announce that the moon soon will restore her daughter’s virginity.

“The play is off the wall,” Correro says. “The Gypsy says camino real is a funny paper read backwards. There’s all this seediness and darkness that that implies.”

The drama opens the Tennessee Williams Theatre Company of New Orleans’ season Friday at Marigny Opera House. The company focuses on Williams’ lesser-known works, including his one-act plays.

Camino Real is the company’s largest production to date, with a cast of 22.

The Marigny Opera House also gives

# The Count The average rental price per month for a one-bedroom apartment in New Orleans.

P H O T O B Y © 2 0 1 7 WA R N E R B R O S .

C’est What

?

Are you satisfied with the field of candidates in the New Orleans mayor’s race?

NEW ORLEANS IS NO. 1 — in U.S. cities with the highest rent hike over the last six months, according to ABODO, a rent-analysis company. While ABODO estimates the nationwide average rent for a one-bedroom apartment to be $1,016 per month and the average P H O T O B Y B A R T E V E R S O N /C R E AT I V E C O M M O N S apartment in the state of Louisiana to rent for $834 per month, a one-bedroom in New Orleans averages out to nearly $1,400 per month.

Though New Orleans is hardly the most expensive city in the country for rentals, its 6.3 percent average rent hike between January and July puts it at the top of cities with the biggest rent increases. So if you think the rent is too damn high, now you’ve got some evidence. — KEVIN ALLMAN

The Oscar J. Tolmas Charitable Trust donated

$40,000 to Ronald McDonald House Charities of South Louisiana, which provides housing at the Ronald McDonald House on Canal Street to families of pediatric patients receiving care in New Orleans. The donation allows the organization to buy a 12-passenger van to transport families and patients to their doctors.

UnitedHealthcare donated 100 Nerf gaming kits to members of the Boys and Girls Club of Southeast Louisiana. The donation is part of a nationwide campaign to get kids active through gaming. The health group will donate 10,000 Nerf kits throughout 2017.

Jeff Landry,

Louisiana’s publicity-hungry attorney general, called the New Orleans Police Department consent decree with the U.S. Department of Justice a “Hug-A-Thug” policy.

Landry told the Lafayette-based news radio 96.5 KPEL-FM July 17 that New Orleans is “falling apart,” black communities have “turned into war zones,” and that Landrieu believes “global warming is what is causing the crime rate to spike.”

On the Canal Street streetcar extension, which begins this week and will shut down traffic for four months: “The Canal St. streetcar extension is a good idea if the ridership needs it.

The question I have is why wasn’t this project started right after Memorial Day so that the bulk of it would be completed during the summer when the traffic flow in the area is much, much lighter?” — dt2760

I-10 News on the move 1.

ENDORSEMENT? NO. BUT ‘TRUE FRIENDS SHOW UP’ When state Sen. Karen Carter Peterson (right, in pink) was eying a potential mayoral run earlier this month, she told Gambit she already had met with one declared candidate in the race: District B City Councilwoman LaToya Cantrell.

“Because we truly are dear friends, I had to meet with LaToya and let her know that I was seriously considering the race,” Peterson said. Days later, she dropped the notion of running.

At Cantrell’s formal campaign kickoff at the New Orleans Jazz Market July 18, Peterson slipped backstage after the event for a quick hug with Cantrell. Asked if her presence constituted an endorsement, Peterson said, “When friends do big things, true friends show up.”

But was that an endorsement? “Do you need to write it down?” Peterson said, repeating her statement slowly. “When friends do big things, true friends show up.” OK. PH OTO BY K E VI N ALLMAN

2. Quote of the week “The Senate should immediately reject efforts to ‘repeal’ the current system and replace sometime later. This could leave millions of Americans without coverage. The best next step is for both parties to come together and do what we can all agree on: fix our unstable insurance markets.” — A statement signed by Gov. John Bel Edwards and a bipartisan group of 10 other governors last week, after the GOPbacked health care bill fell apart and Republicans began floating the idea of changing “repeal and replace” to simply “repeal now, replace at some undetermined future date.”

President Donald Trump backed the idea, telling reporters he supported the failure of the Affordable Care Act. “Let Obamacare fail; it’ll be a lot easier,” he told reporters. “And I think we’re probably in that position where we’ll just let Obamacare fail.”

3. CBO score for

repeal-without-replace: 32M to lose health insurance

After the U.S. Senate’s failure to gain enough support behind its Better Care Reconciliation Act, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) estimated 22 million could lose their

health care by 2026 under another attempt at the Senate bill.

The latest CBO report, released July 19, estimated 32 million people would lose their insurance by 2026 under a repeal-only measure.

Louisiana Sen. Bill Cassidy has yet to announce how he’d vote on any iteration of a bill to repeal or replace the ACA. Sen. John Neely Kennedy stated July 19, “I am prepared to vote this afternoon, tomorrow or next week. You either like Obamacare or you don’t. It’s time to stand up and be counted before God and country and do what the American people elected us to do: Repeal Obamacare.”

In a statement following the latest CBO score, the Louisiana Healthcare Alliance said, “It doesn’t matter what version of health care repeal Republicans put forward, they’ve each proven to be completely devastating for the American people — cutting coverage, raising costs, gutting Medicaid and weakening protections — just to give the wealthy and drug and pharmaceutical companies another tax break.”

4. ‘A Talk With the Mayor’ July 27

EngageNOLA will host “A Talk With the Mayor: A Civic Engagement Social” at the New Orleans Jazz Market

from 5:30 to 9 p.m. July 27. Mayor Mitch Landrieu will discuss his administration, followed by a “facilitated discussion” where audience members will submit questions that will be vetted by volunteers. WWLTV’s Sheba Turk will moderate. The event is free and open to the public with an RSVP to EngageNOLA (www.engagenola.org).

5. Bayou Brief launches in New Orleans

About 50 people gathered July 15 at the Mid-City Yacht Club for the local launch of The Bayou Brief (www.bayoubrief.com), a new statewide nonprofit news website with the tagline “Nevertheless, We Will Progress.” The site is the brainchild of Lamar White Jr., a longtime writer and activist from central Louisiana who published a political blog, CenLamar, for more than a decade. According to White, the nonprofit site pulled in $40,000 in donations within the first two weeks of its announcement.

At the Yacht Club, White led a panel that included progressive activist Matt Bailey, political consultant and pundit Westley Bayas and Lynda Woolard, president of the Independent Women’s Organization of New Orleans. Among the topics they discussed: the current media landscape in New Orleans, what stories are being misreported or underreported, and if progressives are too “nice” in today’s roughand-tumble political world — or, as White put it, “Should we be bigger assholes?”

“When your brand is tolerance and justice, you’re going to get painted as the ‘nice’ people,” Woolard said. “We know the tea party tactics work,” she added, citing the recent demonstrations and sit-ins outside congressional offices and at town halls, where constituents gathered to protest against the GOP proposal to repeal the Affordable Care Act. The gathering also drew two candidates for the District A City Council seat: Aylin Maklansky and Drew Ward.

removal of all city traffic cameras, ultimately

At her formal mayoral campaign announcement last week, District B Councilwoman LaToya Cantrell drew some of the biggest cheers of her speech when she announced, “We don’t know if traffic cameras

7. At-Large candidates forum set

The group Indivisible New Orleans, which held the first mayoral forum of the current election season, will hold a forum for the City Council At-Large, Division 1 candidates August 5 from 4:30 to 6 p.m. at Temple Sinai (6227 St. Charles Ave.).

The forum is open to the public with first-come, first-serve seating; questioners’ names will be drawn by lot.

In a statement following the IG report, the city and S&WB said they “are acutely aware of the potential risks associated with lead exposure and are fully committed to taking all necessary steps to protect the health and well-being of the city’s hundreds of thousands of residents and tens of millions of visitors,” adding their assurance of the safety of New Orleans water. The city has lead information on its construction website roadwork.nola.gov.

Though the S&WB has met the last three rounds of Environmental Protection Agency water quality tests performed every three years, the IG claims the city has not responded with “urgency” regarding the issue of potential lead contamination.

The market and its vendors will move to the market’s spin-off location The Art Garage on St. Claude Avenue, which opened in 2016.

A farewell “second line” meets at 7 p.m. Tuesday, July 25, and rolls at 8 p.m. beginning at Frenchmen Street and moving to Royal Street, then Esplanade Avenue, back down Frenchmen to Dauphine Street, then to Elysian Fields Avenue then St. Claude, ending at The Art Garage market at 2231 St. Claude Ave. “Frenchmen has been our home for over five years, and we have loved being a part of this community,” market owner and creative director Kate Gaar said in a statement. “With the move of the Frenchmen Art Market to The Art Garage, we are hoping to provide a unique and innovative complement to the already vibrant local art landscape, including the St. Claude Arts District, and thriving local nightlife.”

are making our streets safer. But we do know those cameras are costing our residents money that could be spent on their families.

As your mayor, I will suspend the use of the cameras until it can be proven that they actually work as intended.” (In a departure from prepared remarks that had been provided to reporters, Cantrell speculated onstage that the traffic cameras might be redeployed as crime cameras and placed in drugplagued neighborhoods.)

Later, though, in a short scrum with reporters, Cantrell seemed to walk back that statement at least in part, saying, “Based on the feedback from the community, it would only be those cameras that have been recently installed” — indicating that she supported the removal only of the cameras that were put in place in early 2017, leaving in place those that had been installed earlier.

The next day, Cantrell spokesman David Winkler-Schmit clarified to Gambit that the original statement — as spelled out in her prepared remarks — was the correct one: Should she be elected, Cantrell would remove all traffic cameras.

Those fines, according to the city budget, were expected to bring in $24 million in 2017 — $8 million more than the previous year. That budget was unanimously approved by the New Orleans City Council, of which Cantrell is a member.

COMMENTARY

Demagogues taking pot shots at New Orleans U.S. SEN. JOHN NEELY KENNEDY WAS IN NEW ORLEANS LAST WEEK

— not for a town hall or public constituents’ meeting, which he has yet to hold in the state’s largest city since he took office six months ago. No, he was here to talk with WWL-TV about the city’s crime problem, which he once again said could turn New Orleans into “the next Detroit.”

Kennedy previously used the “Detroit” slur in a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on the confirmation of FBI Director Christopher Wray. In that hearing, Kennedy also claimed hyperbolically that the Crescent City was becoming “the murder and armed robbery capital of the Western Hemisphere.” Since Kennedy has been scarce around these parts after moving to Washington D.C., we thought we’d remind him of a few things.

• New Orleans’ crime problem is real and troubling; that’s not in dispute. But “the murder and armed robbery capital of the Western Hemisphere”? Hardly. We’re not even the highest in the nation. In fact, our violent crime rate, even with the recent uptick, is still lower than it was at the end of former Police Chief Richard Pennington’s tenure — and Pennington rightly remains a hero in the fight against crime.

• Detroit? That city declared bankruptcy in 2013 — while New Orleans’ fiscal standing has soared. Mayor Mitch Landrieu has made mistakes like any mayor, but he inherited a fiscal disaster in 2010, and he worked with the City Council to fix it. New Orleans’ finances are nothing like those of Detroit, nor is our crime problem.

Perhaps a better comparison would be the state’s fiscal standing, which was downgraded by Moody’s Investors Services to the nation’s third-worst last year after eight years of mismanagement by former Gov. Bobby Jindal and his legislative allies. It’s worth noting that Sen. Kennedy was treasurer of Louisiana for 16 years, under three governors.

What, besides talk, did Kennedy actually do while Louisiana veered

into a fiscal ditch? If Landrieu bears responsibility for crime, then surely Kennedy bears some responsibility for Louisiana’s fiscal train wreck.

So far, Kennedy’s tenure in Washington has produced little more than finger pointing and sound bites, though he’s not the only demagogue taking potshots at our city. Last week, state Attorney General Jeff Landry appeared on a radio show in Acadiana to once again criticize what he calls New Orleans’ “hug-a-thug” policies (his term for the NOPD’s federal consent decree) and said, “The place is falling apart.” Landry should talk about “falling apart.”

If Landrieu bears responsibility for crime, then surely Kennedy bears some responsibility for Louisiana’s fiscal train wreck.

His much-publicized “task force” to clean up New Orleans produced only a handful of arrests before the AG pulled it out of the city.

Both Landry and Kennedy are said to be eying the 2019 gubernatorial race, and no doubt it plays well in some parts of the state to badmouth New Orleans. Still, it’s Louisiana, not New Orleans, that falls at the bottom of so many lists. Those who aspire to lead our state should not falsely besmirch its largest and most economically important city.

Edwards calls conservatives’ bluff IF YOU TALK TO CONSERVATIVE STATE LAWMAKERS AND BUSINESS LEADERS IN LOUISIANA , they’ll

tell you there’s no “appetite” for fiscal reform.

They all know what fiscal reform looks like, they just don’t see a way to get from where Louisiana is today to where it needs to be in the future, or even next year.

Gov. John Bel Edwards blames House Republicans, who have blunted his efforts to raise taxes. In fairness, the governor also balked at reforms proposed last November by a nonpartisan task force that studied tax policy for almost a year. Instead of backing the task force’s recommendations, Edwards floated an idea that struck many as coming out of left field: a commercial activity tax, or CAT. That idea went nowhere fast.

On the other hand, the GOP-led House failed to offer a reasonable alternative of its own, other than significant cuts this year and draconian cuts next year. Edwards and the Senate, which generally sides with the governor on fiscal issues, tamped down the House plan this year — but Louisiana’s long-range prospects remain untenable.

All this is unfolding against the backdrop of yet another “fiscal cliff,” which is an odd metaphor given Louisiana’s flat terrain. The latest “cliff” is a projected $1 billion hole in state budget for the fiscal year that begins July 1, 2018 — because at least that much in “temporary” taxes, mostly sales taxes, will expire then.

Under our state’s constitution lawmakers can only tinker with the tax code in regular sessions in odd-numbered years. This year, most lawmakers sat on their hands when it came to dealing with the “cliff.” That means a special session is needed if we’re to avoid the dreaded precipice.

At this point, whistling past the graveyard seems a more fitting metaphor. That was pretty much the conclusion of the nonpartisan Council for A Better Louisiana (CABL) in a recent commentary.

“While there does seem to be a strong sense that we’re not satisfied

with where we stand now, there doesn’t seem to be much articulation about where it is we want to be,” CABL wrote. “It’s sort of like, we want everything to be better and move up in all the rankings, but we don’t really want to change anything.”

What’s needed is leadership, not brinkmanship.

In a move that combined a touch of both, Edwards last week wrote to House Speaker Taylor Barras, a Republican from New Iberia, asking him to appoint a bipartisan group to formulate a plan for avoiding the “cliff.” Edwards even said he’s willing to embrace the task force recommendations that he snubbed earlier this year.

The governor upped the ante by saying he doesn’t see much point in calling a special session between now and next July 1 to deal with the “cliff” if House members aren’t willing to change course.

In effect, he called House Republicans’ bluff: If they want draconian cuts, he’ll let them happen — but he made it clear the blood will be on their hands, not his, if hospitals and universities shut down.

It will be interesting to see how the House responds.

Hey Blake, Please enlighten me about the pumping station near the Pontchartrain Expressway and Metairie Cemetery. As I recall, it was completed right before Hurricane Katrina but did little to prevent flooding there. Has it been repaired and is it in use?

BOB

Dear Bob, You are correct that the large pumping station at Pontchartrain Expressway and the Southern Railway bridge near Metairie Cemetery and Lake Lawn Metairie Funeral Home was completed in May 2004, about 15 months before Hurricane Katrina.

During a heavy rainfall, the 60-foot-tall, four-pump drainage station is designed to move water from the surrounding 500-acre drainage basin into the 17th Street

Canal. The pumping station, built by the state Department of Transportation and Development and operated by the New Orleans Sewerage and Water Board (S&WB), was part of a $32 million drainage project aimed at alleviating frequent flooding for which that highway underpass, which dips 14 feet below sea level, had become known.

Two people drowned there during flooding in May 1995 and flooding closed that stretch of the interstate twice in 1998. The pumping station was no match for flooding from the levee failures following Hurricane Katrina, which made that stretch of I-10 impassable for several days.

The area flooded again in December 2005 because power had not yet been restored to the facility. According to S&WB officials, that has been rectified and there is a backup power system in place — including power the S&WB generates for itself — to continue operations when there is a power failure. The board also positions workers to man the pumping station when rain events are forecast.

music store business that made the Werlein name synonymous with sheet music and instrument sales in New Orleans for more than 150 years. Born in Germany in 1812, Philip Werlein came to the United States at age 19. A music teacher, he opened his first music store in Vicksburg, Mississippi in 1842.

In 1852, he opened a larger store on Camp Street in New Orleans, where he became a major sheet music PHOTO BY DAVE/CREATIVECOMMONS publisher. The business remained in family hands after Werlein’s death in 1899, with stores on Baronne Street and in the 100 block of Canal Street. Werlein’s opened its well-known four-story location at 605 Canal St. in 1905. The huge sign that towered above advertised “Werlein’s For Music.” Over the years, a long list of notables took music lessons, purchased instruments or had their instruments repaired there, including Fats Domino, Pete Fountain, Dr. John, Jimmy Buffett and Harry Connick Jr. Werlein’s is said to be the place where Louis Armstrong bought his first horn. By the 1980s, the Werlein’s chain had grown to 14 locations across the South. After 85 years on Canal Street, the family closed that store in 1990. The chain had its swan song with the closure of its Metairie store in 2003. The Canal Street building was restored and is now Palace Cafe.

The city kale forgot

Chilling out MOVE OVER, SOFT SERVE , there’s a new kid in town. Freezy Street (2633 St. Claude Ave.; www. freezystreet.com) a new shop specializing in Thai-style rolled ice cream, is now open on St. Claude Avenue.

Owners Adam Enterkin and Frances LaMagna were inspired by their travels in Thailand, where street vendors sell the frozen treat.

The Daily Beet focuses on vegetables

BY H E L E N F R E U N D @helenfreund

IN 2014, The New York Times pub-

lished an article about New Orleans and its perceived lack of kale that spurred some backlash. Social media provocateurs dubbed it #kalegate, and it became a rallying cry for a debate linking the leafy green to gentrification in the city.

Enter The Daily Beet, a new health-focused restaurant in a rapidly developing part of the Warehouse District, a neighborhood where it’s increasingly easier to spot residents in yoga pants than those toting gocups. Say what you will about the vegetable and the controversy, but kale is found in healthy abundance at The Daily Beet, serving as the backbone for smoothies, breakfast bowls and salads. In the Summer Kale salad, thin strips of dark lacinato kale leaves are tossed with tiny zante currants and toasted sunflower seeds and showered with grated Pecorino and Parmesan cheeses. It’s tossed with a citrusy vinaigrette, but the salad remains light and airy with a healthy crunch.

Owner Dylan Maisel’s inspiration for the restaurant came from his childhood in upstate New York, where his parents operated a small vegetarian restaurant. He launched the cold-pressed juice stand JuiceNOLA at St. Roch Market before opening this stand-alone business earlier this year.

His juices and a selection of smoothies are found here, ranging from the Skinny Green, made with kale, spinach, pineapple, bananas

and mango to the more filling PB &J, a thick, nutty play on the childhood sandwich featuring blueberries, strawberries, banana and raw agave.

Semolina bread from local bakery Leo’s Bread provides the platform for a selection of toasts. Too often, the toast trend is represented by soggy, thin-sliced bread sagging under the weight of its toppings. Here, thick-sliced bread gives welcome heft to carry ingredients such as avocado, cherry tomatoes, chili flakes, olive oil and fat sea salt crystals.

The Beet Party toast is topped with sweet, roasted beet wedges, a thick pillow of chevre, toasted pepitas, a sieved egg and tangy green harissa.

The Supreme is an over-the-top creation with Southwestern flair for those with a healthy appetite.

Mashed avocados are topped with black beans, corn, cherry tomatoes, Cotija cheese, a fried egg, avocado chipotle sauce and garlicky chimichurri. The flavors are more pronounced and successful in this than in a salad dubbed the Mexicali Blues, in which similar ingredients top mixed greens, but the result is lacking in dimension.

Most salads feature a base of mixed greens with the exception of one made with shaved Brussels sprout leaves. Paired with juicy

beets, chevre, almonds and arugula, the salad is tossed with a tart maple cider vinaigrette that coats the sprouts and mitigates some of the Brussels sprouts’ innate bitterness.

In the Orbit bowl, wild rice provides an earthy, warming foundation for an assembly of sharper elements including carrot spears, edamame, scallions and kimchi. Those flavors are softened by creamy wedges of avocado, a fried egg and a sesame-ginger dressing.

Many of the ingredients appear in multiple items, which often happens in fast-casual concepts of a similar vein, so a meal assembled from a few dishes can seem monotonous. The Daily Beet feels better suited to a quick lunch than a longer sit-down affair.

Health-conscious eating might be better established as a West Coast or East Coast fad, but there’s no denying it’s part of a national trend that’s found solid roots in New Orleans. Kale is here to stay.

EAT+DRINK 3-COURSE INTERVIEW

Jonathan Moore CIDER MAKER JONATHAN MOORE AND DIANA POWELL opened Broad Street Cider & Ale (2723 S. Broad St.; www. broadstreetcider.com) July 22. The couple discovered a love of cider while traveling in Europe, where ciders are crisper and drier than those commonly produced in the U.S. Their cidery is the first of its kind in New Orleans and includes a pub.

Moore spoke with Gambit about cider.

What did you learn about European ciders?

MOORE: When we were traveling, mostly in the British Empire, we realized we loved the cider we had all over — in Spain, in the U.K., Australia. I had been brewing beer and making cider at home for a number of years and realized how exciting it was. I took a course at Oregon State (University) in Portland and learned a little bit about techniques. Everyone was making the same type of cider across the U.S., which is one of the things we were frustrated with.

Grapes naturally have about 80 different flavor profiles, while apples have four: perceived sweetness, perceived bitterness, lack of perceived sweetness, lack of perceived bitterness. Just using a simple white wine yeast, which is supposed to reflect the natural nuances within grapes — if you’re doing that with apples, it’s like cooking chicken with no seasoning.

The craft cider movement is now where craft beer was 20 years ago. What we’re focusing on is a lot of fun: using the natural abilities of yeast to provide different flavors. So not reinventing the wheel, but borrowing from craft beer (techniques). So, adding a hefeweizen yeast to cider and then using the same juice and adding a saison yeast, you’d get two totally different flavor profiles.

With cider — like beer — you get up to 70 percent of your flavor from your yeast.

How does making cider differ from brewing beer or making wine?

M: It’s closer to making wine. We are a bonded winery as far as the federal government is concerned.

So we can make wine, cider and mead — essentially anything that’s not malted or distilled. With brewing beer, the verb there is to “brew,” so you’re taking grains, adding hot water, extracting the

sugars and then taking the sugars and breaking them down, cooling that liquid and pitching the yeast.

Making cider is just the “pitching the yeast” part.

We don’t really have any apples around here. … You have to be 50 miles or less away from an apple (crop) to have it be economically feasible. So we are contracting with some juice companies in the Pacific Northwest. Pretty much everyone in the cider industry uses these companies. It’s the other dirty secret of cider makers in the U.S. Once we get the juice, we bring it up to about 60 or 70 degrees, wait about seven to 10 days for the yeast to do its thing during the primary fermentation stage, and then we rack it into kegs where we do the secondary fermentation, which is the natural carbonation stage.

That takes two to three weeks.

All of our ciders are dry or semisweet naturally. So things like a Champagne yeast will filter out all of your sugars with not a lot of sweetness at all — it’s just dry, crisp and clean.

We’re making a hefeweizen (yeast) cider and we’re calling it the Cavendish. It looks, feels and tastes like a trashy 1990s hefeweizen, but there’s absolutely no wheat in it. It’s just juice, yeast and time.

We’re always going to have guest taps, too. We’ll be carrying eight beers and we’re going to try to split it between local and (national) stuff. We’ll have a small wine program and we’ll have two guest ciders. ... We really want to be at $6 for a 10-ounce cider.

What do you like to eat with a cider?

M: I like it with crawfish and a lot of spicy foods. The acidity holds up very well. It’s a good replacement for wine in many ways, but the kind of wines you would drink in big gulps. We’re going to have a range of hoppy ciders and those would be delicious with something like a burger. — HELEN FREUND

BY MARK BURLET THOUGH IT ONLY JUST CELEBRATED ITS SECOND YEAR in existence,

Urban South Brewery (1645 Tchoupitoulas St., 504-267-4852; www.urbansouthbrewery.com) is making waves in the local craft beer scene.

Louisiana native Jacob Landry founded the brewery, which opened in March 2016 in a large warehouse at the corner of Tchoupitoulas and Market streets in the Lower Garden District. Its flagship beers include Holy Roller IPA and Coop’d Up, a tart farmhouse ale. One of its year-round offerings, 2nd Set Pilsner, a Bohemian-style lager brewed with German malts and hops, recently won a gold medal in the Bohemian Pilsener category at the U.S. Open Beer Championship.

Urban South debuted the latest limited release in its Architecture Series, Quatrefoil, on July 15. This sour IPA made with hibiscus is a rose-hued, lightly tart and mildly hopped beer with a lingering floral finish.

“I think it’s a good change of pace from all the hop bombs that we’ve been doing — and everybody else has been doing — but it still has a little hop characteristic,” says Urban South Vice President Kyle Huling.

2014 Catena Malbec Mendoza, Argentina Retail $15-$25

ARGENTINA’S MENDOZA PROVINCE is home to 80 percent of the nation’s wineries and prime vineyards. Malbec, which originated in France’s Bordeaux region, has become Argentina’s most successful red varietal since it was first planted in the mid-19th century. Over the course of 115 years and four generations, the Catena Zapata family has practiced viticulture in the foothills of the Andes, sourcing grapes and producing wines from their high-altitude vineyards. From north Mendoza, the Maipu vineyard’s 80-year-old vines contribute smooth texture to this blend. Fruit from Lujan de Cuyo adds spice notes. Cold nights in San Carlos vineyards foster crisp acidity, and Tupungato’s sunny skies enhance scents and structure. In the winery, the malbec grapes fermented and macerated over 32 days, and the wine aged in American and French barriques. In the glass, it offers aromas of red berries, dark fruit, floral notes and a hint of cedar. On the palate, taste plum, blackberry, cherry, spice and a touch of mocha. Decant 25 minutes before serving. Drink it with steak, roasted meats, fowl, pasta with tomato sauce, pizza and cheeses.

Buy it at: The Wine Seller, Rouses in Mid-City, Costco, Breaux Mart on Magazine Street, Trader Joe’s, Zuppardo’s Family Supermarket, Langenstein’s in Metairie, The Fresh Market, Whole Foods Market in Metairie and Mandeville and Cost Plus World Market. Drink it at: Trenasse, Houston’s, Fogo de Chao and Coach’s Corner.

“THE SAFETY DANCE” is one of the enduring documents of the early 1980s, a double-duty Pavlovian bounce anthem for New Wave club-goers and a defiant piss-off to those clubs’ bouncers, as well as a set-list staple of Old Wave nights across the country since. Its creators, Montreal bro-bots Men Without Hats, didn’t fare as well. Staring down obsolescence as an outdated synth outfit in the grunge era, the band tried its hand at Nirvana-style hard rock on 1991’s Sideways, got dropped by its label and promptly broke up. (Men Without Hats without keyboards, it turned out, were • July 27 men out of work; an aborted comeback • 10 p.m. Thursday in 2003 yielded one sadly prescient release, No Hats Beyond This Point.)

• Siberia, 2227 St. Claude Ave., The current iteration, which returned (504) 265-8855; in 2010, features none of the original www.siberianola.com backing musicians, yet it retains the two most essential elements on 2012’s timemachined surprise Love in the Age of War (Cobraside): the flatlining delivery of singer/songwriter Ivan Doroschuk and pogoing synthesizers probably covered in “Mondale/Ferraro” stickers. It is, unashamedly, music of a future past. But as long as they abuse it, they’re never gonna lose it. Naughty Palace opens. Tickets $15$20. — NOAH BONAPARTE PAIS

Dunkirk

“THE DUNKIRK SPIRIT” is a phrase • Directed by Christopher Nolan known to British citizens of all back• Starring Tom Hardy, Kenneth grounds and a source of pride for many. It refers to the ability to sucBranagh and Mark Rylance ceed under impossible circumstances.

• Wide release That capacity is ascribed to the British for events at the Battle of Dunkirk, which occurred at the beginning of © 2017 WARNER BROS. World War II in late May and early June 1940. It was a rare set of circumstances in which ordinary citizens were needed to help rescue more than 300,000 British soldiers surrounded by enemy troops and trapped on the beach at the French town of Dunkirk.

That story is not well known in the U.S., in part because the heroics belonged solely to our allies, and also because no one has tried to tell it through an appropriately epic-scale Hollywood film. The ascent of filmmaker Christopher Nolan (The Dark Knight trilogy, Inception) has made that idea not only possible but advisable. A British-American with dual citizenship, Nolan possesses what may be Hollywood’s most elusive gift — the ability to create blockbuster movies that also appear substantial.

For Dunkirk, Nolan decided the best way to tell the story was to immerse viewers in the action. From its very first scene, the film’s essential quality is intensity. A pace typically reserved for the finale of well-made action thrillers drives the entire 107-minute experience.

The film presents three interlocking stories — one each on land, sea and sky — and incorporates a variety of perspectives to tell a multifaceted tale. Finely crafted in ways that beg for viewing on the largest available screen, Dunkirk balances spectacle with human drama to give the story depth and meaning.

It’s a landmark war film by any measure, and the year’s first shoe-in for major accolades come awards season.

The circumstances at Dunkirk were dire. Enemy forces surrounded the mostly British and French soldiers, and the water off the beach was too shallow to allow large ships near enough to rescue them. England is 26 miles across the English Channel. The Royal Air Force’s Spitfires worked to keep enemy planes from bombing boats on the water and troops on the shore.

In his third Nolan film, Tom Hardy plays a British fighter pilot with a knack for aerial combat; Kenneth Branagh is the British commander in charge of the unfortunate situation on the beach; and acclaimed theater artist Mark Rylance plays a mariner and private citizen among those who may be in position to save the free world.

Nolan does not let us get to know his characters in traditional war-movie style. They are defined not by dialogue, backstories or letters from home, but by their actions on screen. Shot entirely in large-format IMAX and 65mm film and edited with great skill, Dunkirk revels in visual storytelling and seems hellbent on providing a purely cinematic experience. The aerial footage recreates the fighter pilot perspective like nothing seen before on film.

Nolan said his film is not meant to glorify war, even pointing out the parallels he sees between the historic evacuation at Dunkirk and the refugee crisis unfolding across Europe today. Ordinary people helping one another for the common good of all — that is a Dunkirk Spirit for the 21st century, and one well worth exporting on a global scale. — KEN KORMAN

REVIEW THE ST. CLAUDE ARTS DISTRICT

New Work by Cynthia Scott, Alex Podesta, Stacey Holloway and Antonia Zennaro

came about as an experiment in community self-determination by artists rebuilding their lives in the wake of Hurricane Katrina and the levee failures. Today, the arts are thriving in a community where the • Through Aug. 6 freedom to explore new things is its • The Front, 4100 St. Claude Ave., own reward, so it’s fitting that the current shows at The Front focus on (504) 301-8654; www.nolafront.org our rapidly changing world. Cynthia Scott’s Un-Nature series explores how technology impacts our sense of reality as climate change and genetic engineering keep us guessing. Here species including bees and zinnias appear in clear cast resin like artifacts preserved in amber, while otherworldly photographs such as Space Garden (pictured) convey an unsettling sense of how our future backyards may look.

The alluring perfection of geometric forms long has inspired scientists, but the human body makes geometry look a lot more lived-in, as we see in Alex Podesta’s Ballspine sculpture — an eerily humanoid spinal column with rubber balls as vertebral discs. In another work, tangles of inner tubes suggest intestines, but Infinitude features a sculpted hand clasping a looped inner tube in the figure-eight-shaped infinity symbol in an iconic aspect of Podesta’s most eloquently serendipitous work to date. Stacey Holloway’s sculptures envision the animal kingdom as a parallel universe with human sensibilities, including a sense of “home” and related longings for status and security in a world where lambs, rabbits and wolves reflect familiar human cravings. In Italian photographer Antonia Zennaro’s The Last Singers of Bahia Solano series of photo-tapestries, portraits of Colombian women in a remote region known for narrative singing appear as icons of a vanishing way of life. There, villages are overwhelmed by drug smugglers as lifestyles that traditionally were close to nature are upended. Fishermen, seduced by previously unimaginable riches, are recruited to help move vast quantities of cocaine to the insatiable North — a mutually destructive process that undermines America while slowly silencing a simple and poetic way of life long celebrated in song. — D.

BURLESQUE & VARIETY

REVIEW

Hairspray

HAIRSPRAY, recently presented by Summer Lyric Theatre at Tulane University, could be PHOTO BY MICHAEL PALUMBO just another nostalgic song and dance revue, featuring clueless teenagers with beehives and saddle shoes, but it’s not. The musical, which ran for six years on Broadway and won eight Tony Awards, has multi-dimensional characters living in a segregated city just beginning to deal with difficult issues of race. The show’s humor is edgy, but its rendering is brilliant and heartwarming under the masterful direction of Michael McKelvey.

John Waters, the cult filmmaker who produced the original movie, grew up in the blue-collar city of Baltimore in the 1960s, as does Hairspray’s pudgy heroine, Tracy Turnblad (Kristin Collura). Tracy cheerfully sings about her everyday experiences — “There’s the flasher who lives next door. / There’s the bum on his barroom stool. / They wish me luck on my way to school.” Like today’s contestants on shows like The Voice, she hopes to rise above her situation by auditioning for the Corny Collins Show, sponsored by Ultra Clutch Hairspray.

Tracy’s parents, Wilbur (Bob Edes Jr.) and Edna (Sean Patterson), are skeptical of her plan. Dressed in a roomy housecoat and wearing a hair curler bonnet, Edna insists that laundry, not dancing, is her daughter’s future. “If you want to be famous, learn how to take blood out of car upholstery. That’s a skill you can take right to the bank,” Edna advises. Written by humorists Mark O’Donnell and Thomas Meehan, Hairspray is rife with outrageous off-color jokes.

After skipping school, Tracy and her friend Penny Pingleton (Emerson Steele) wind up in detention, where they make friends with black students who teach them groovy new dance moves, including one that Seaweed J. Stubbs (Polanco Jones Jr.) calls Peyton Place After Midnight. When Tracy demonstrates her locomotion to Corny Collins (Keith Claverie), she wins a spot on his show and a kiss from its heartthrob Link Larkin (Frankie Thams), angering producer and vicious stage mom Velma Von Tussle (Kali Russell).

Tracy also brings progressive views to the TV show, which allows black students to participate once per month on “Negro Day.” On the show, Tracy says she would make every day “Negro Day.” Tracy gains popularity and Penny starts dating Seaweed, much to her mother’s chagrin.

Superb casting allows every actor to shine, and Collura, Claverie, Russell, Thams and Jones delivered great performances. Edes and Patterson were unforgettable in their romantic duet “You’re Timeless to Me.” Despite the film premiering almost 30 years ago, Hairspray seems relevant to our times. Many lines reference popular culture long past, but the humor is on point.

Tracy and her friends think it’s cool to go to a black neighborhood but wonder if it is safe, and Motormouth Maybelle (Jacqui Cross) quips in response: “Now honey, we got more reason to be scared on your street.”

Gorgeous costumes, 1960s dances, a terrific set and full orchestra conducted by Jefferson Turner made Hairspray a feast for eyes and ears. As the singing trio The Dynamites, Jessica Mixon, Whitney Mixon and Shangobunmi McAlpine were sublime, and Cross brought down the house. — MARY RICKARD
