Another intriguing visual arts season takes shape

T

HEREâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;LL BE no rest for the visual art consumer in and around Santa Cruz County in the upcoming months. Indeed, the remainder of 2010 is packed with great shows and significant artists. The following represents just a fraction of the seasonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s opportunities.

Robbie Schoen is an awesome one-man band. Quixotic curator, manager and host of the ever-evolving ;Za^m @jaeV <VaaZgn since it was founded at 107 Elm St. in Santa Cruz six

years ago, Schoen is also the exhibition designer and installer of the Santa Cruz Museum of Art & History. In

0G ;/C@33< 2/D72A=<

Kulpaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s large courtyard, Schoen has created a theme park of sculptural works including his own humorously reused telephone booth and melted monitor fountains. A â&#x20AC;&#x153;stableâ&#x20AC;? of artists show regularly. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We give artists a place to evolve over time,â&#x20AC;? he says. ¨

Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been the case with Blaise Rosenthall, whose new grid-based tonal works comprise the elegant â&#x20AC;&#x153;Empire of Dirtâ&#x20AC;? (through Aug. 29).

Up next, Russian photographer Alexey Lokhov presents surreal manipulated monochromatic images in â&#x20AC;&#x153;From Russia With Loveâ&#x20AC;? (Sept. 3â&#x20AC;&#x201C;26). Lokhov will be â&#x20AC;&#x153;presentâ&#x20AC;? for the opening via Skype along with Russian food and drink and the regional expat community. In October, a Kulpa favorite, Jake Thomas, returns with â&#x20AC;&#x153;Pogonip Bluesâ&#x20AC;? (Oct. 1â&#x20AC;&#x201C;24). In November and December, â&#x20AC;&#x153;And Then There Was Lightâ&#x20AC;? (Nov. 5â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Dec. 26) features experimental neon art by

Bruce Suba. The gallery is always abuzz.

The EV_Vgd KVaaZn 6gih 8djcX^a <VaaZgn routinely presents big-concept, beautifully mounted exhibitions with powerful local relevance from its small bungalow in Watsonville. This year PVAC celebrated its 25th season, beautified its exterior space and won some prestigious grants to continue collaboration with nearby Sierra Azul Nursery on â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sculpture Isâ&#x20AC;? (through Oct. 31), an extraordinary annual exhibition of outdoor sculpture in Sierra Azulâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s acres of demonstration gardens.

Upcoming is â&#x20AC;&#x153;Los PĂĄjarosâ&#x20AC;? (Sept. 2â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Oct. 10), an exhibition of birdinspired art presented in concert with

j

A/<B/1@CH 1=; august 25-september 1, 2010 1=D3@ AB=@G

Watsonvilleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Monterey Bay Birding Festival, which attracts birders from all over the world. Los PĂĄjaros runs in the PVAC gallery with a reception on Sept. 12, 2â&#x20AC;&#x201C;4pm. PVAC also shows bird-related woodcuts by Andrea Rich on the 4th Floor of Watsonville Civic Plaza from Sept. 2 through Oct. 7, with a reception Sept. 24, 5â&#x20AC;&#x201C;6:30pm. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all about local relevance.

At the top of the county, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Abstractionsâ&#x20AC;? (through Aug. 31) is a dazzling exhibition of sculpture and wall pieces by a dozen local artists including Susana Arias, Steve Laufer, Marilyn Kuksht, Cecil C. Childress and Ralph Joachim at the 9VkZcedgi <VaaZgn. A Kuksht steel sculpture just loves being the focal point of the galleryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s long view. All flowing curves and airy volume, the approximately 4-foot-tall piece has all the presence of her larger worksâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;many of which she just showed in San Franciscoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s SomArts Cultural Center Gallery along with the vivid geometric paintings by Joachim and large expressionistic work of Childress, both of whose large paintings hover near her work here too.

Art of higher elevation can be found at HVciV 8gjo BdjciV^c 6gih 8ZciZg in Ben Lomond, which recently morphed from fine art gallery into a much-needed outlet for sales of fine art and craft by local artists. Significantly expanding its studios, MAC provides art classes for adults and children and a venue for music, poetry and lectures. The upcoming â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ceram-A-Ramaâ&#x20AC;? (Sept. 17â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 19) is a MAC signature event, from its kickoff potluck and ceramics movie on Friday night through Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s demonstration workshops with Tom Coleman to Sundayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s free hands-on clay sculpture, raku firings and contests. The Center does indeed beat with the burly heart of the San Lorenzo Valley.

Back in the lowlands, First Fridays of each month in Santa Cruz have become a major arts and social event thanks to Kirby Scudder of the Santa Cruz Institute of Contemporary Arts. ;^ghi ;g^YVn 6gi Idjgh (Sept. 3, Oct. 8, Nov. 5, Dec. 3) began six years ago with a sprinkling of ersatz galleries and a few shops that hung art and offered snacks. Scudder molded the event into a much-anticipated art extravaganza with over 30 participating spaces, a monthly booklet/brochure and much publicity.

Many Santa Cruz galleries align their opening receptions with the popular monthly event.

Such is the case for an extraordinary

September exhibition mounted at the

B^aa <VaaZgn in Santa Cruz by Sheila Halligan-Waltz and Eike Waltz. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sex & Cityâ&#x20AC;? (Sept. 3â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Oct. 1) is what happened when a sculpture by Eike Waltz abstractly depicting a male nude was censored by a too-tender downtown official last year, turning a simmering concern into a boiling necessity for these two artists of social conscience. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sex & Cityâ&#x20AC;? is an exhibition of â&#x20AC;&#x153;socioeroticâ&#x20AC;? art grappling with the hypocrisy of government censorship. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A nude woman can walk in a parade through Santa Cruz streets, yet a realistic nude painting is not considered appropriate for a public building. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Sex & Cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; questions how we are programmed and protected,â&#x20AC;? says Waltz. The exhibit is up daily 11amâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;8pm with the artists in attendance, welcoming discussion.

Visiting with artists could become a habit that continues through the season as the Cultural Council of Santa Cruz County presents the 25th 6ccjVa DeZc HijY^dh 6gi Idjg (Oct. 2â&#x20AC;&#x201C;3, 9â&#x20AC;&#x201C;10, 16â&#x20AC;&#x201C;17) over the first three weekends in October, with studios south of the Yacht Harbor open Oct. 2â&#x20AC;&#x201C;3, studios north of the Yacht Harbor open Oct. 9â&#x20AC;&#x201C;10 and the final Encore Weekend presenting many of both. Open Studios is a destination tourism event as significant for collectors and admirers of the visual arts as for the participating artists who have been selected by a rigorous competitive process. This year a record 320 artists open their studio doors to visitors who have purchased a calendar, which serves as passport and guide map. A commemorative limited edition poster by Liz Lyons Friedman, the only artist who has participated in all 25 years of Open Studios, is launched Sept. 23, 5â&#x20AC;&#x201C;7pm, at a signing party at the Ndg` <VaaZgn in Santa Cruz. The â&#x20AC;&#x153;Open Studios Preview Exhibitionâ&#x20AC;?

(Sept. 25â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Oct. 17) helps enthusiasts chart a course through three busy weekends by showing representative works from all of the artists at the HVciV 8gjo 6gi AZV\jZ galleries, with a reception Sept. 26. 3â&#x20AC;&#x201C;6pm.

One reason Open Studios is so important is the limited number of art galleries in Santa Cruz County.

That shortage is one of the reasons that HVciV 8gjo 8djcin 7Vc` began to exhibit art on its walls in 2004 when it opened its first location on Soquel Avenue. The exhibitions were inaugurated by a former bank CEO, but Mary Anne Carson, the bankâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s director of marketing, has always ¨

been responsible for making arts exhibitions on bank walls a defining feature of the institution, which now has five locations countywide. The current exhibit, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Placesâ&#x20AC;? (through Oct. 12), features black and white images by 10 local photographers in a celebration of travel and adventure.

Up next, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Traveloguesâ&#x20AC;? (Oct. 25â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Dec. 27) features photography by Angie Tan Burns and paintings by Gregory Burns. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This will be the 28th exhibition since we opened the bank in February 2004,â&#x20AC;? says Carson. â&#x20AC;&#x153;All proceeds from sales go directly to the artist.â&#x20AC;?

No doubt Santa Cruz County is home to an unusual number and quality of artists. One of many reasons for this strange quirk in the population makeup is that UCSC and Cabrillo College each have extraordinary arts programs. The galleries at UCSC, the Sesnon Gallery and the Eloise Pickard Smith Gallery, maintain ambitious exhibition schedules as part of the universityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s teaching mission and have been instrumental in solidifying the areaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s reputation. Cabrillo College plays a different role, employing many local artists as teachers, offering inexpensive and accessible classes and providing top-of-the-line studios and equipment through its new Visual and Performing Arts campus. 8VWg^aad <VaaZgn consistently

exhibits provocative work. â&#x20AC;&#x153;CAL IF OR NIAâ&#x20AC;? (Aug. 30â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Sept. 24) shows the work of 33 California artists as selected by Ruth Braunstein and Shannon Trimble of the prestigious Braunstein/Quay Gallery in San Francisco. A reception is Sept. 12, 3â&#x20AC;&#x201C;5pm. A second Cabrillo show, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Visibly Invisible: Artists Working With Transgendered Themesâ&#x20AC;? (Sept. 30â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Oct. 29), features powerful photographs, video, film, paintings, drawings and installations on the subject of gender and personal transformation. A reception kicks things off Sept. 30, 5â&#x20AC;&#x201C;7pm.

Transformation is the work of artists.

The job of the BjhZjb d[ 6gi =^hidgn is to be the mothership of visual arts in the county. MAH currently shows three exhibitions on the theme of paper. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in the Pulp: The Art of Papermaking in Santa Cruzâ&#x20AC;? (through Nov. 21) commemorates the period in the 1970s when Garner Tullisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; International Institute of Experimental Printmaking in Santa Cruz became the epicenter for hand papermaking as a fine art process.

Artists like Louise Nevelson, Nathan Oliviera and Laddie John Dill worked here; artists like Charles Hilger and John Babcock and Madeline de Joly stayed; locally Jody Alexander, Susana Arias and Bonnie Britton continue to use handmade paper as a medium. Works by these and other artists demonstrate the scope of this fine art medium. 0

N 1975 a group of young music lovers, inspired by the local talent and undeterred by their collective inexperience, set about establishing a jazz society. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ultimately, we wanted to have a home for jazz in Santa Cruz,â&#x20AC;? says Tim Jackson, one of the societyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s founding members. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But we had no money or experience; just had some half-baked ideas.â&#x20AC;?

Today, Kuumbwa Jazz Center is known the world over and has played host to most of the major jazz artists of the last several decades, including Dizzy Gillespie, Herbie Hancock, Pat Metheny, Diana Krall, Art Blakey and McCoy Tyner, to name just a few.

The idea came from Rich Wills, at the time a programmer at KUSP, who recruited fellow programmer Sheba Burney and saxophonist/flutist Jackson to form an organization to preserve the legacy of jazz and provide the local musicians a place to play. It was an idea that, according to Jackson, was ahead of the curve. â&#x20AC;&#x153;At that time there were very few jazz organizations under a notfor-profit banner,â&#x20AC;? he says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Most jazz

was in commercial inner-city clubs or larger festivals. Now thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a whole network of nonprofit jazz-presenting organizations across the country.â&#x20AC;?

Within a few months of Kuumbwaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s inception, the three had scheduled their first concert: Joe Henderson at San Lorenzo Parkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s duck pond. The newbie promoters narrowly escaped disaster, however, when the concert was rained out and had to be moved, piano and all, to a backup location.

With the help of an eager audience, however, the concert was successfully relocated, and the show went on. The young promoters walked away with four dollars and a strengthened desire for a venue of their own.

While they saved money for a home, Kuumbwa put on shows in different venues around town, including the Capitola Theatre. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We just went into the Capitola Theatre and asked if we could do a concert,â&#x20AC;? says Jackson with a smile. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know who we were, but you find help in the most illogical places sometimes.â&#x20AC;?

Capitola Theatre allowed Kuumbwa to bring in big names like Dexter Gordon, which boosted the trioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s confidence that they could pull off major concerts. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We felt that we were able to present a major, internationally recognized jazz star for the first time with Dexter,â&#x20AC;? says Jackson. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It gives you confidence that â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Hey, we can do this.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;?

After two years, Kuumbwa had enough money to get a place of its own, and when a bakery on Cedar Street became available, its operators pounced. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was pretty rustic and bare-bones,â&#x20AC;? says Jackson, â&#x20AC;&#x153;but it was a space, and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been in that space ever since.â&#x20AC;?

For the last 35 years, Kuumbwa has provided Santa Cruz with a stage for developing, emerging and master musicians and has contributed to the communityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s collective appreciation for jazz through various educational programs which, Jackson says, is a vital component of the organization. â&#x20AC;&#x153;[Education] is whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to build both the music and audience for the future,â&#x20AC;? he says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Most people wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t grow up to be jazz musicians, but exposure to jazz at a young age, we think, creates lifelong arts lovers.â&#x20AC;?

Jackson, in his role as artistic

director, continues to book all the concerts, as well as nurture the organizationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s relationships with the artists. According to marketing director Sandy Sloan, having a director with the ability to balance the jazz masters with the up- and-coming artists has been a key to Kuumbwaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s success. Well, that combined with the support of a loyal group of members, donors, volunteers, board members and music lovers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been involved with a lot of nonprofits,â&#x20AC;? says Sloan, â&#x20AC;&#x153;and this is the most dedicated group of individuals Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen.â&#x20AC;?

Nor does Jacksonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dedication to bringing great jazz to the area end with Kuumbwa. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also general manager of the world-renowned BdciZgZn ?Voo ;Zhi^kVa, which celebrates its 53rd year Sept. 17â&#x20AC;&#x201C;19 with a bill brimming with talent and diversity. Among the headliners are Harry Connick Jr., Angelique Kidjo, Chick Corea, Ahmad Jamal, Delbert McClinton, Les Nubians and Kronos Quartet. Although the festival and Kuumbwa have no official connection, they have what Jackson calls a symbiotic relationship, with contacts made through Kuumbwa helping in Monterey and vice versa.

In honor of its 35th birthday, Kuumbwa Jazz is hosting a free concert ¨

HE CURTAIN opens with Isabelle Grossman tweezing her grandmotherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chin stubble. The grand dame has hired a matchmaker, and as the audience will learn, sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s found the perfect man for her beautiful young granddaughter: a pickle cart vendor.

The Liliana Moraru Jewish Theater willed itself into being this past June, and 8gdhh^c\ 9ZaVcXZn (through Aug. 29) is its first production. The troupe went with a comedy. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When I read the script I was laughing the whole way through,â&#x20AC;? says artistic director Claire Cameron, who saw the evolution of the organization from its beginnings at Temple Beth-El. The theater is the first in Santa Cruz devoted to Jewish playwrights and Jewish themes, and aficionados f locked to the June

premiere. On five out of four nights, a theater equipped to hold 90 was inadequate to contain the masses, and latecomers found themselves in folding chairs. The show is running again by popular demand.

According to Cameron, in the last 15 years Jewish theater has been experiencing a resurgence. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an awful lot of laughter in our culture, and an awful lot of sorrow, and people can identify with those in their own lives,â&#x20AC;? says Cameron, who holds that these slices of human existence are more than the laughs they bring to audiences. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s kind of an experience to go into a theater and watch a play about Jewish life. The goal of theater isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just about an enjoyable time, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also to teach.â&#x20AC;?

spontaneity might be necessary to catch the tail-end performances, but after itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gone, the next scheduled show wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be hitting until spring of 2011.

If you just canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t swing it, fear not.

Santa Cruz will be rife with fall productions.

I]Z HVciV 8gjo ;daa^Zh (Sept. 16â&#x20AC;&#x201C;18) is a little-known but much-loved variety show at the Santa Cruz Civic Auditorium, a storm of singing and dancing courtesy of local performers over 50. And Actorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Theatre breaks the quiet of summer with 9ZVY BVcĂ&#x2030;h 8Zaa E]dcZ (Oct. 1â&#x20AC;&#x201C;10). A hilarious story involving hitherto unexplored subject matter, it follows a woman who steals the telephonic device of a dead man she discovers sitting next to her in a cafĂŠ after it rings and she answers it. Actorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Theatre is on a mission to make audiences laugh, and if the annual >begdkVi]dc (Oct. 24) canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t satiate, hot on its heels follows I]Z AVhi CdZa (Dec. 4â&#x20AC;&#x201C;12), a film noir spoof revolving around a man framed for killing his wife with a candy cane.

Santa Cruzâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Jewel Theatre kicks off its season at the Broadway Playhouse with a production of 8adjYh (Sept. 16â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 26). Set in sultry 1970s Cuba, the story focuses on two reporters from rival magazines trading provocative high jinks in a battle for the next big story. Then itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s on to two-time Tony Award winner 8dbeVcn (Nov. 11â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 21), once called the best musical of the year. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an exploration of love and commitment through the eyes of a bachelor blessed with a slew of married friends, all of whom are slightly envious of his noncoupled condition.

UCSCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s experimental theater f lexes its edge in Romulus Linneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s =dan <]dhih (Nov. 12â&#x20AC;&#x201C;21). Set in the American South, the play follows members of an evangelical cult who find divine ecstasy through the handling of large venomous snakes.

The Second Stage sees a performance of student-written drama production >c i]Z LVkZh (Nov. 5â&#x20AC;&#x201C;14).

Events at West End Studio Theatre are getting a little more serious.

CdWdYnĂ&#x2030;h =dbZ (Nov. 4â&#x20AC;&#x201C;14) is a modern retelling of Homerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Odyssey, the epic travel story that can be reworked as anything. This version is also the return of a soldier, a man struggling to settle back at home with both his wife and his post-traumatic stress disorder.

Over at Cabrillo Stage, performers pass their December reprising last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s run of HXgdd\Z! i]Z Bjh^XVa (Dec. 17â&#x20AC;&#x201C;30). Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nothing like a little music to startle the humbug out of Christmasâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; most famous skeptic, and once again actors will be performing above a full pit orchestra.

The fall also offers multiple excuses to visit neighboring burgs.

Down the road in San Juan Bautista, El Teatro Campesino presents

8dgg^Ydh IVaZh d[ i]Z BZm^XVc GZkdaji^dc (Sept. 16â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Oct. 17), a collection of humorous musical vignettes

by Luis Valdez. The company also offers up a Day of the Dead celebration in October (check www. elteatrocampesino.com for dates) and AV K^g\Zc YZa IZeZnVX (Nov. 26â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Dec. 19), which tells the story of an Aztec Indian bearing a divine message of peace to Spanish conquerors.

Produced in the grand Mission, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a biennial holiday favorite.

Vacation destination Carmel plays host to several theater companies, including Pacific Repertory Theatre, the only professional company on the Monterey Peninsula. Company actors will be taking on L^aan Ldc`V VcY i]Z 8]dXdaViZ ;VXidgn (through Sept. 26), a production that will certainly enjoy a high turnoutâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;even without Johnny Depp starring. A few weeks later finds them bouncing back to basics with Shakespeareâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s IlZa[i] C^\]i (Oct. 1â&#x20AC;&#x201C;17), followed by a holiday performance of 6 IjcV 8]g^hibVh (Dec. 1â&#x20AC;&#x201C;23). For this Yuletide comedy, a two-man cast fills a roster full of town eccentrics bent on winning a Christmas lawn display competition in what is simultaneously an affectionate portrait of small-town Southern life and a withering satire of same.

Back in Santa Cruz, as a prelude to Santa Cruz Acting Studioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first autumn of acting school for kids, performers 13 to 19 years old will be cutting their teeth on All About Theatreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fall production of ;VbZĂ&#x2026; i]Z Bjh^XVa (Aug. 27â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Sept. 5)# The wildly popular drama chronicles the roller coaster ride of teens enrolled in a performing arts school, singing and dancing their way through struggles with romance, school pressures and drugs. And what better way, we ask, to start the season? 0 3\bS`bOW\[S\b 2OWZg ¨ &

IRE UP the iCalâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be a busy autumn, not least for lovers of dance. In their 40th anniversary season, IVcYn 7ZVa VcY 8dbeVcn kick things off, you might say, with the premiere of HereafterHere: A Self Guided Tour of Eternity. A multimedia exploration of peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s perceptions of the afterlife, the piece includes original compositions by Bealâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s partner John Scoville and incorporates the efforts of two dozen dancers and actors. Bealâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s distinctive fingerprints are all over this piece, which runs at the Cabrillo Crocker Theater Sept. 10â&#x20AC;&#x201C;12.

Mere weeks later, HVciV 8gjo 9VcXZ presents the Second Annual Ethnic Dance Festival (Sept. 25â&#x20AC;&#x201C;26), with free performances at Mission Plaza Park and a day of workshops.

Spanish ensemble CdX]Z ;aVbZcXV breezes through the World Theater at CSUMB on Oct. 21, with the EVja IVnadg 9VcXZ 8dbeVcn not far behind; that august pioneer of modern dance (he turns 80 this year) is presenting Brief Encounters on Nov. 11.

Which brings us to the holiday season and another Beal endeavor, the back-by-popular-demand B^mZY Cjio / I]Z CjiXgVX`Zg GZ"b^mZY, with

its jugglers, acrobats, a cappella music

by SoVoSo, marvelous costumes and, yes, Bealâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s choreography. The show runs Nov. 19â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Dec. 5 at UCSC and serves as a whimsical counterpoint to the venerable tights-â&#x20AC;&#x2122;nâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;-tutus version of I]Z CjiXgVX`Zg mounted by Santa Cruz Ballet Dec. 17â&#x20AC;&#x201C;19 at the Civic Auditorium.

Words, Indeed Anchored by Bookshop Santa Cruz and Capitola Book CafĂŠ, the literary scene in our neck of the woods just gets better and better. This fall a staggeringly talented lineup of authors are getting ready to parade through town in their rumpled clothes and interesting glasses.

Setting their GPS devices for Capitola Book CafĂŠ are ?dcVi]Vc ;gVcoZc (Sept. 1), who arrives lugging Freedom, his hefty followup to The Corrections. The fabulous BVgn GdVX] (Sept. 7), the Tina Fey of nerdtaining inquiries into subjects like corpses and people who study sex, turns her gimlet eye to the wacky side of astronaut training in Packing for Mars: The Curious Science of Life in the Void.

The musical lineup includes Jacksonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s band, Real Time, playing Latin- and groove-oriented material, the Hy-Tones, one of the first bands to ever play at Kuumbwa, playing standards and originals, and the old-school funk sounds of Frequency Jones featuring special guest Tammi Brown. The park is also playing host to Bobbyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Can Cookinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; BBQ Festival, so the music, beverages and food will be in plentiful supply.

The celebration serves as leadin to an upcoming schedule that highlights Kuumbwaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s commitment to both preservation and progress as it hosts guitar virtuoso HiVcaZn ?dgYVc (Sept. 9), emerging trumpet innovator 6bWgdhZ 6`^cbjh^gZ (Sept. 13), jazz masters AZZ @dc^io (Sept. 27) and 9VkZ A^ZWbVc (Sept. 30), the genretranscending mandolin work of

The foreseeable future is bright indeed for the little society that could, with plans for a jazz-themed mural in town, a possible street rename, a spring film festival and, as ever, a steady stream of world-class musicians.

And Kuumbwa Jazzâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;the name means â&#x20AC;&#x153;an act of spontaneous creativityâ&#x20AC;? in Swahiliâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;remains as dedicated to its original vision today, as it was in 1975. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We wanted to create an atmosphere that was conducive to creative expression,â&#x20AC;? says Jackson. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And that, in a nutshell, is still exactly what we do.â&#x20AC;?

KUUMBWAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S 35TH BIRTHDAY PARTY is Sunday, Aug. 29, 1â&#x20AC;&#x201C;5pm on the Duck Island Stage in San Lorenzo Park, Santa Cruz. Free.

as Barry, one of the most dimwitted individuals imaginable. He is courted

by Tim (Paul Rudd), a rising executive looking for the perfect guest for his bossâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s monthly event, a dinner for idiots. The message is essentially that an abnormally idiotic man can ruin your entire life but you should not make fun of him because of it. Interestingly, the denouement contradicts the exact purpose of the movie for the audience.

Replete with buffoonery, the film does boast some moments of incomprehensible social awkwardness that will have audiences twisting in their seats. (MM) 3/B >@/G :=D3

(R; 103 min.) Director/ co-writer/star Sylvester Stallone rounds up the cast of most of the action movies of the past few decades as mercenaries for an assault on the vile island of Vilena, a Caribbean dictatorship run by an evil general, who is the sock-puppet for CIA swine Eric

Roberts. Turning the private army of El General into what Terry Crewesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Hale Caesar accurately describes as â&#x20AC;&#x153;red sausageâ&#x20AC;? is the aim of the aged if still muscular lugs. The slomo girl is Sandra (Giselle ItiĂŠ), the curvy daughter of the dictator. The scene of her waterboarding is typical for Stallone; the decades have proved that he never knows when heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s crossed over the fun line. The wasting of the army (one long explosion in a butcher shop) and the fights between musclemen are as low-class as the greatly uninteresting car-crunches, though a Dolph Lundgren/Jet Li bout has some style.

Look for a cameo by Arnold Schwarzenegger, whose disdain for the movie is less dismaying than his presidential ambitions, and some muttered crazy-talk about Bosnia by Mickey Rourke. (RvB) B63 3FB@/ ;/< (R;

Movie reviews by Marlon Maloney, Steve Palopoli and Richard von Busack

thriller, directed by Christian Carion, based on a real-life case. In 1981, in Moscow, Pierre (Guillaume Canet), a French technocrat, is mistakenly approached

by Grigoriev (Serbian director Emir Kusturica).

This Soviet officer, sick of his government, aims to help push it over from the inside by passing on information to the West. The Russian is surprised to find out that Pierre has almost no connections with the secret service. Pierreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s government asks the amateur spy to carry on, and a friendship develops. The art direction is immaculate; Carion aims to take you on a trip to the vanished USSR, dwelling over the frightening Martian/ Gothic towers and neongreen corridors. (RvB) 53B :=E (PG-13; 100 min.) In the 1930s South, a hermit named Felix Bush (Robert Duvall) emerges from his decades of solitude. He drives his mule cart into a nearby small town and makes plans for his funeral, which he intends to have while heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still alive. He finds no trouble with this idea from the local mortician (Bill Murray).

Part of the draw will be Bush publicly telling the secret that made

him hide his face in the woods for so many years. Murray, wearing a suspicious-looking mustache, fur-collared suits and a horseshoe pin, is the filmâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s saving grace; he has the true comedianâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s solitude and toast-dry humor, an eloquent wince at boredom and a consoling flask in the pocket.

(R; 137 min.) This second installment in the Stieg Larsson series brings back Noomi Rapaceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ratty but invincible urchin Lisbeth Salander.

Shortly after Lisbethâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s return to Stockholm, her old nemesis of a parole officer starts stirring up trouble. Meanwhile, trustworthily pockmarked investigative journalist Mikael (Michael Nyqvist) meets a new writer. He and his sociologist girlfriend are trying to expose the sexslave trade conducted out of the former Soviet Union, apparently abetted by the Sapo, the Swedish Secret Police.

Salander is an oldfashioned pulp heroine in a pulp plot. (RvB) 7<13>B7=< (PG-13; 148 min.) The basic idea of Christopher Nolanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s film is simple. Led by Cobb

(Leonardo DiCaprio), a sort of Impossible Mission Force, working for a Japanese trillionaire (Ken Watanabe), descends into the sleeping subconscious of the plutocratâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s young rival (Cillian Murphy), using technology that allows them to design dreamscapes. Because of the complexity of this operation, the team s forced to create dreams within dreams, and each deeper dream takes place in an exponentially larger time frame. The film is audacious and frequently thrilling, especially when Nolan folds Paris in on itself and Escherizes interior spaces. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s visionary filmmaking, uncommon at this scale, with neither the mawkishness of What Dreams May Come or the spiritual horse feathers of the Matrix trilogy. (RvB) B63 972A /@3 /:: @756B (R; 111 min.)

Crisis occurs when a very settled lesbian marriage is challenged by the arrival of the sperm donor (Mark Ruffalo) who fathered one of the coupleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s children.

Julianne Moore as a classic California girl: no intellectual, very earthy, a blurter-out of things she probably shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have said; Annette Bening, amusingly dour, is her hard-working spouse. Director Lisa Cholodenko and cowriter Stuart Blumberg takes their film away from the realm of the typical gay and lesbian film fest talkathon and up to speed with the blogs, Alison Bechdelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cartoons Dykes to Watch Out For and with the fiction of Mary Gaitskill. As a director, Cholodenko is a dry, tough-minded wit. But the way she analyzes the needy, unpretty cores of these characters is what takes The Kids Are All Right out of the realm of the domestic comedy/ drama and makes it a film to remember. (RvB) :743 2C@7<5 E/@B7;3 (Unrated;

98 min.) â&#x20AC;&#x153;Entertainingâ&#x20AC;? isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the first word that comes to mind to describe a Todd Solondz film, but this weirdly lighthearted sequel to the stacked, loaded and fairly repulsive Happiness

seems like the work of a director with a longer view. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not that the overt politics make the difference, or that the cast has more facility with humor (though they do)â&#x20AC;&#x201D;there seems to be more affection for the characters and the messes they make or worsen. The three sisters from Happinesssâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;Joy, Trish and Helenâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;have come up in the world.

Trish (Allison Janney) is living in Florida, putting her marriage to a rapacious child molester behind her and dating a physically disagreeable Zionist (Michael Lerner); her son, Timmy (Dylan Riley Snyder, freckled and cast for his resemblance to Lassieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s partner Timmy), is awaiting his bar mitzvah and dealing with his twin anxieties about pedophiles and terrorists.

Meanwhile, sad-sack Joy (Shirley Henderson) is still carrying her

acoustic guitar around, though now sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s being pestered by vicious ghosts (Paul Reubens is one of them). The â&#x20AC;&#x153;Floridaâ&#x20AC;? surroundings (actually the parts of Puerto Rico stuck in the mid-1960s) and the acid-washed colors stress the grotesque comic side of this tale of family dislocation. The highlight is a wonderfully juicy bit

by Charlotte Rampling as a bitter Ăźber-cougar; she keeps pitching her lines higher and higher, until sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a one-woman Strindberg festival. (RvB) B63 :=BB3@G B7193B

(PG-13) Bow Wow, Brandon T. Jackson and Ice Cube star in tale about a guy from the projects who has to survive the weekend after his neighbors find out heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s holding a winning lottery ticket. </<<G ;1>633 @3BC@<A (PG; 97

(PG-13; 107 min.) Two disgraced copsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;Allen (Will Ferrell) and Terry (Mark Wahlberg)â&#x20AC;&#x201D;hope to claim the roles of star detectives held by fellow detectives P.K. (Samuel L. Jackson) and Christopher (Dwayne Johnson).

Ferrellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Allen is a socially awkward detective just looking to get through each day by handling the accounting side of police work. Wahlbergâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Terry provides the kind of extreme vexation that having to deal with Ferrellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s character on a daily basis inevitably leads to. Despite some excellent comedy pairing by the leads, Allen lacks the hilarious, goodnatured stupidity of, say,

a Ron Burgundy. Ferrell attempts to use more dry humor here rather than the outsized expressive comedy weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re used to seeing from him. (MM) >7@/<6/ ! 2 (R; 89 min.) Director Alexandre Aja (The Hills Have Eyes) has thoughtfully outfitted his killer fish pic with 3-D technology, the better to distract the audience from the premise, which is that a sudden tremor releases a school of prehistoric man-eating fish from their underwater hideyhole, wreaking havoc on attractive vacationers.

A/:B (PG-13; 100 min.)

A fast-paced, actionpacked thrill ride with a tinge of Cold Warâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;era military tension.

Angelina Jolie, who plays CIA officer Evelyn Salt, continues to be the sole actress capable of playing the lead role in an action film. The story begins with the

torture of Salt in a North Korean military prison.

Eventually, she is released in a prisoner exchange.

Two years later, Salt and her superior, Ted Winter (Liev Schreiber), are on their way out of the building when a Russian defector, Orlov, accuses Salt of being a Russian spy during an interrogation. This is the point where the action starts and never stops again. Unfortunately, the plot in this film doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t leave much room for the audience to decide whether Orlovâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s accusation is true or false. The movie is completely reliant on Jolie for its appeal, and she delivers. The action sequences are filled with old-school foot chases and fights blended with plenty of new-school, improbableâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;or likely impossibleâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;stunts and special effects. If you love action flicks with a near minimal amount

of thought required to decipher the impending acts this is a great show.

13; 108 min.) Michael Cera is Scott Pilgrim, a laybout in a local Toronto band, who has a thing for two girlfriendsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;the old Veronica and Betty dichotomy. The nice, too-loyal Betty is a Charlene Yi surrogate called Knives Chau (Ellen Wong); he is more obsessed with Ramona Flowers, played by Mary Elizabeth Winstead, whose nationality (American), multicolored hair (mostly magenta or ultramarine) and romantic history make her seem exotic.

Unfortunately, her ex-lovers are in league against him. Not a bad premise, just a bad carry-on. Ultimately, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m on the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s side in re: Scott Pilgrim. The

heavily cyber-treated visuals, from the winter exteriors to grungy basements, close in on you like the walls in an Indiana Jones tomb. Edgar Wright did this kind of material before and better (on TVâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Spaced); better digital effects and more expensive editorial cleverness canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make it fresh. (RvB) B63 AE7B16 (PG-13; 109 min.) Talk about inglourious basterds.

Jennifer Aniston, having artificially inseminated her way into motherhood seven years prior, meets up with an old pal (Jason Bateman) with a very interesting confession.

Astrology Free Will

By Rob Brezsny

For the week of August 25 /@73A (March 21â&#x20AC;&#x201C;April 19): Why should you work harder than everyone else? Why is it up to you to pick up the slack when others are suffering from outbreaks of laziness and incompetence? And why should you be the fearless leader who is focused on fixing the glitches and smoothing over the rough patches when no one else seems to care whether things fall apart? Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll tell you why, Aries: because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the Karmic Correction phase of your long-term cycleâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;a time when you can atone for past mistakes, pay off old debts, and make up for less-than-conscientious moves you got away with once upon a time.

B/C@CA (April 20â&#x20AC;&#x201C;May 20): â&#x20AC;&#x153;What is the source of our first suffering?â&#x20AC;? wrote philosopher Gaston Bachelard. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It lies in the fact that we hesitated to speak. It was born in the moment when we accumulated silent things within us.â&#x20AC;? Luckily for you, Taurus, the cosmic rhythms are aligned in such a way as to free you from at least some of that old suffering in the coming weeks. I expect that you will have more power than usual to say what youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never been able to say and express a part of you that has been buried too long.

53;7<7 (May 21â&#x20AC;&#x201C;June 20): More than 2,000 people have climbed to the top of Mt. Everest, and 12 men have walked on the moon. But only two humans have ever ventured to the lowest spot on our planet.

In 1960, Jacques Piccard and Donald Walsh rode in a bathyscaphe all the way down to the Mariana Trench, which is almost seven miles beneath the surface of the Pacific Ocean. Your assignment in the coming weeks, Gemini, is to move in their direction, metaphorically speaking. In my astrological opinion, ascending and soaring shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be on your agenda. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time to dive into the mysterious depths.

1/<13@ (June 21â&#x20AC;&#x201C;July 22): I propose that we do to Mercury what astronomers did to Pluto in 2006: demote it. After all, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s smaller than both Saturnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s moon Titan and Jupiterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s moon Ganymede. Who wants to bestow the majestic title of â&#x20AC;&#x153;planetâ&#x20AC;? on such a piddling peewee? In fact, letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s make the change now, just in time for Mercuryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s retrograde phase, which began recently. That way we wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to get all riled up about the supposedly disruptive effects this aspect portends. How could a barren runt like Mercury stir up any kind of meaningful ruckus? I hereby declare you free and clear of the whole Mercury retrograde superstition. Please proceed on the assumption that the period between now and September 12 will be an excellent time to deepen and refine your communication with anyone you care about. :3= (July 23â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Aug. 22): A Chinese company reached out to me by email today. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dear Sir,â&#x20AC;? the message began, â&#x20AC;&#x153;As the leading professional conveyor belt manufacturers in Shanghai, we present to you our very best sincere regards, desiring to find out if there is a chance for us to be your top-rate conveyor belt supplier.â&#x20AC;? I wrote back, thanking them for their friendly inquiry. I said that personally I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have any need of conveyor belts right now, but I told them I would check with my Leo readers to see if they might. According to my reading of the astrological omens, you see, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re entering a time when it makes sense to expand and refine your approach to work.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be a good time, for example, to get more efficient and step up production. So how about it? Do you need any conveyor belts?

D7@5= (Aug. 23â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Sept. 22): Our sun doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really have a name. The word â&#x20AC;&#x153;sunâ&#x20AC;? is a generic term that can refer to any of trillions of stars. So Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to propose that you come up with a name for it. It could be a nickname or a title, like â&#x20AC;&#x153;Big Singerâ&#x20AC;? or â&#x20AC;&#x153;Aurora Rexâ&#x20AC;? or â&#x20AC;&#x153;Joy Shouterâ&#x20AC;? or â&#x20AC;&#x153;Renaldo.â&#x20AC;? I hope this exercise will get you in the mood to find names for a whole host of other under-identified things in your life, like the mysterious feelings that are swirling around inside you right now, and your longings for experiences that donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t exist yet, and your dreams about the elusive blessings you want so bad.

:70@/ (Sept. 23â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Oct. 22): The odometer will turn over soon, metaphorically speaking. The big supply of the stuff you stocked up on a while back is about to run out. The lessons you began studying a year ago have been completed, at least for now, and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not yet ready for the next round of teachings. These are just some of the indicators that suggest you should set aside time for ref lection and evaluation. The world may come pounding at your door, demanding that

you make a dramatic declaration or take decisive action, but in my opinion you should stall. You need to steep in this pregnant pause.

A1=@>7= (Oct. 23â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Nov. 21): Most discussions on TV news shows involve so-called experts shouting simplistic opinions at each other. They may provide some meager entertainment value, but are rarely enlightening. In contrast to these paltry spectacles were the salons at Parisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Cafe Guerbois in 1869. A group of hard-working artists and writers gathered there to inspire each other. The painter Claude Monet wrote that their discussions â&#x20AC;&#x153;sharpened oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wits, encouraged frank and impartial inquiry, and provided enthusiasm that kept us going for weeks . . . One always came away feeling more involved, more determined, and thinking more clearly and distinctly.â&#x20AC;?

Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the kind of dynamic interaction you should seek out in abundance, Scorpio.

A/57BB/@7CA (Nov. 22â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Dec. 21): In the movies Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen that depict battle scenes from hundreds of years ago, every army has numerous soldiers whose job it is to carry festive f lags and pennants. If this is an accurate depiction of history, what does it mean?

That powerful symbols were crucial to inspiring the troopsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; heroic efforts? That touches of color and beauty lifted their morale? That they were more inclined to do their best if inspired to imagine they were participating in an epic story? Whether or not my theories apply to what actually happened back then, they apply to you now. As you go forth to fight for what you believe in, bring your equivalent of an evocative emblem.

1/>@71=@< (Dec. 22â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Jan. 19): Using a radio telescope, astronomers at Germanyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Max Planck Institute for Radio Astronomy have been scanning the center of the galaxy. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re looking for evidence of amino acids that could be the building blocks of life. So far their hunt has been inconclusive. In my opinion, though, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve stumbled upon an even more appealing discovery: The huge dust cloud at the heart of the Milky Way, they say, tastes like raspberries and smells like rum. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the kind of switcheroo I predict for you in the upcoming weeks, Capricorn. You may not locate the smoking gun youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re hoping to find, but in the process of searching I bet youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll hook up with something even better.

/?C/@7CA (Jan. 20â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Feb. 18): Each one of us is a blend of life and death. In the most literal sense, our bodies always contain old cells that are dying and new cells that are emerging as replacements. From a more metaphorical perspective, our familiar ways of seeing and thinking and feeling are constantly atrophying, even as fresh modes emerge. Both losing and winning are woven into every day; sinking down and rising up; shrinking and expanding. In any given phase of our lives, one or the other polarity is usually more pronounced. But for you in the foreseeable future, Aquarius, they will be evenly balanced. Welcome to the Season of Rot and Regeneration. >7A13A (Feb. 19â&#x20AC;&#x201C;March 20): Allure magazine sought out Luca Turin and Tania Sanchez, the women who wrote the book Perfumes: The A to Z Guide. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What are the sexiest-smelling perfumes of all time?â&#x20AC;? they asked. Turin and Sanchez said Chinatown was at the top of their list. Their explanation: â&#x20AC;&#x153;If wearing Opium is like walking around with a bullhorn shouting, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Come and get it!â&#x20AC;&#x2122;, Chinatown is like discreetly whispering the same thing.â&#x20AC;? The Chinatown approach is what I recommend for you in the coming weeks, Pisces.
