Broadway hits come to New Brunswick

T

he best of Broadway is coming to State Theatre New Jersey this spring! On Sunday, May 7, the world’s most iconic redhead will take the stage in the brand new incarnation of Annie! Making her return to State Theatre New Jersey, six time Tony Award®-winner Audra McDonald will headline the 2017 Benefit Gala singing some of Broadway’s greatest hits on Saturday, May 13. The John Cameron Mitchell and Stephen Trask musical, Hedwig and the Angry Inch, also joins this incredible lineup from May 19-21.

Annie follows a young orphan who spends the holidays with the billionaire

Oliver Warbucks after he temporarily fosters her. However, Miss Hannigan, Annie’s caretaker, hatches a dastardly plan to ruin Annie’s chances of finally having a family. Annie includes memorable songs, with lyrics by Martin Charnin, such as “It’s the Hard Knock Life,” “I Don’t Need Anything But You,” and “Tomorrow.”

Audra McDonald is best known for her roles in Carousel, Master Class, Ragtime, A Raisin in the Sun, The Gershwins’ Porgy and Bess, and Lady Day at Emerson’s Bar & Grill. In addition to receiving the most Tony Awards® out of any nominated actors, McDonald is also the winner of two Grammys® and an Emmy Award®.

The Tony®-winner of Best Musical Revival, Hedwig and the Angry Inch brings one of Broadway’s most uniquely invigorating scores and characters to the stage. Starring Tony®-nominee Euan Morton, Hedwig is a lively story about love, independence, and acceptance.

You do not want to miss any of these

incredible performances at State Theatre New Jersey! Come see Annie on Sunday, May 7, at 2 and 7 p.m.; Audra McDonald on Saturday, May 13, at 6 p.m.; and Hedwig and the Angry Inch on Friday, May 19, at 8 p.m., Saturday, May 20, at 2 and 8 p.m., and Sunday, May 21, at 2 and 8 p.m.!

GEORGE STREET PLAYHOUSE 9 Livingston Avenue, New Brunswick, NJ 08901

Broadway’s Nancy Opel to star in George Street’s “Curvy Widow”

G

eorge Street Playhouse has announced full casting for "Curvy Widow," starring Broadway’s Nancy Opel (GSP’s “The Toxic Avenger,” Broadway’s “Honeymoon in Vegas”) as Bobby Goldman.

The sassy musical comedy will not only close out GSP’s 2016-17 season, but also mark the final show performed in the Playhouse’s current building. “Curvy Widow” runs May 2-21, 2017, with opening night scheduled for May 5.

The musical, praised by the Citizen Times as “a hilarious, high-voltage romp,” features an autobiographical book by Bobby Goldman with music and lyrics by Drew Brody. The show will be directed by Peter Flynn and choreographed by Marcos Santana.

Joining Opel in the cast are Andrea Bianchi (TV’s “As The World Turns”), Aisha de Haas (Broadway’s “Rent”; “Bring In Da Noise, Bring In Da Funk”), Elizabeth Ward Land (Broadway’s “The Scarlet Pimpernel,” “Memphis”), Ken Land (Broadway’s “The Scarlet Pimpernel,” “Promises, Promises”), Alan Muraoka (TV’s “Sesame Street,” Broadway’s “Miss Saigon”) and Chris Shyer (Broadway’s “Mamma Mia,” National Tour of “Book of Mormon”). Bianchi and Shyer appeared alongside Opel in a production of “Curvy Widow” at NC Stage last fall.

Opel returns to GSP after her performance as Ma/The Mayor in “The Toxic Avenger” to star in this sassy, frank, and witty musical comedy about the exploits of a 50-something widow whose adventures in the least expected places reveal unexpected truths about life, love, survival, and sex.

Opel’s extensive Broadway credits also include “Beautiful - The Carole King Musical,” “Memphis,” “Evita,” and “Urinetown” (Tony nomination).

She will lead a cast of seven in “Curvy Widow.”

“Our patrons still rave about Nancy Opel’s show-stealing performance as Ma Ferd and the Mayor in our 2008 world premiere of ‘The Toxic Avenger,’ and she’s going to be even more outrageous in ‘Curvy Widow,’” said artistic director David Saint. “What better way to bring down the house than with a force of nature like Nancy in a hilarious, bawdy musical comedy.”

George Street Playhouse is located at 9 Livingston Ave., in the heart of New Brunswick’s dining and entertainment district. For tickets and information, patrons may contact the Box Office directly at 732-246-7717 or visit GSPonline.org.

s you walk down the street in the heart of Westfield on these warmer nights you will hear the sound of live jazz music and the smell of Korean cuisine illuminating from a town favorite: Roosterspin. As you get closer, the smell and ambiance will pull you in to take a closer look. The immediate view of over 7,000 classic vintage LPs line the back wall pairing with a beautiful wine rack filled with various California wines. Their signature dish — the double-fried chicken — balances perfectly with the traditional Korean they have been serving since their opening in 2014. The chicken goes through a double frying process in soybean oil which makes it nothing like ordinary fried chicken. This leaves a light, super crispy, and juicy meat with less grease. They then brush a light glaze of either soy garlic or spicy soy garlic on each piece individually to ensure quality.

To top this all off the restaurant has recently opened up private karaoke rooms next door. “We are very happy to be able to bring a traditional Korean singing room back here to NJ, as well as the food,” said owner Mihae Cho. Cho indicated that the expansion of the restaurant included three private rooms with style just as unique as the restaurants’. Strobe lights glowing on the walls teamed with a disco ball sets the mood for karaoke goers of all ages. The walls made of chalkboard entertain the guests old and young as they can write freely as the sing.

“People have been requesting something like this for quite some time, so we are happy to be able to get it up and running for everyone,” said Cho. “These rooms can be rented for holiday parties, birthday parties of all ages, or even an hour after dinner.”

The smallest room accommodates 10+ people with the larger rooms being able to host parties as large as 20+. Groups have the option of renting it by the hour or picking some of the package deals they have to offer.

Roosterspin is open Sundays through Thursdays, from 11:30 a.m. to 10:30 p.m., and Fridays and Saturdays, from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 a.m. Reservations are highly recommended on the weekend and private party bookings in advanced.

The 2016–17 season featured some of the most exciting and highest caliber artists SOPAC has ever presented. The season began with sold-out performances by David Crosby in August, followed by the legendary Donovan in September. In October, over 800 people sang to the rafters in two sold-out concerts by the Indigo Girls.

The following night, SOPAC’s tenth anniversary celebration featured extraordinary local talent including Suzzanne Douglas, Savion Glover, Bill Charlap and Brother Valiant.

In November Josh Ritter returned to SOPAC for another sold-out performance, and in February SOPAC welcomed the amazing Rosanne Cash to the stage as well as Marcia Ball and the Subdudes.

In the spring, SOPAC featured Oleta Adams and David Sedaris, and in June they welcome 2015 Tony Award-winner Kelli O’Hara, Aimee Mann and comedian Louie Anderson. All of these artists normally play much larger venues, but SOPAC is gaining a great reputation as a beautiful and intimate theatre where artists love to come to and connect with their fans.

ith IVF success rates well above the U.S. average, the experts at Reproductive Medicine Associates of New Jersey are leading the way by using some of the most advanced treatment options, including extended embryo culture, trophectoderm biopsy, comprehensive chromosome screening, single embryo transfer, and endometrial synchrony.

L

RMANJ is using to redefine success for hopeful parents from New Jersey and around the world.

“In the ’80s when IVF was first used commonly in the U.S., success rates were much lower and the incidence of multiple deliveries were much higher. But now, thanks to advanced technologies like SelectCCS, we’re able to offer patients delivery rates around 60 percent but with one embryo transferred — not two or more

Bustling BYOB dishing up traditional Italian plates

orenzo’s Family Restaurant is a familyowned business that began 20 years ago as a small Italian deli on Center Street in Garwood. For the first year and a half, Lorenzo’s was a deli but with all the wonderful recipes and family traditions, wordof-mouth soon had us expanding into a beautiful storefront Italian restaurant that serves both lunch and dinner. Lorenzo’s Family Restaurant continues to grow and has many loyal customers.

Lorenzo’s is a BYOB restaurant that serves superb food, made-to-order using the freshest ingredients. A liquor store, just a few doors away, makes it easy to bring a bottle of wine or beer to enjoy with your meal. In addition to our deli specials and regular and children’s menu, a new “Daily Specials” menu is provided each day, created based upon what fresh ingredients can be found in the marketplace that day. You can always find fish, chicken, beef, veal, and pasta specials on our Daily Specials menu.

Lorenzo’s atmosphere is warm and inviting and with attentive, friendly service, Lorenzo’s is the perfect place for a night out with family, friends, or co-workers.

We have a take-out menu, catering menu, and we even cater small events within the restaurant.

which is still pretty common in other programs.

We can offer patients uncompromised results and with fewer potential complications,” offered Dr. Shefali Shastri, one of RMANJ’s 25 expert physicians practicing across their network of 10 NJ offices.

As the most advanced form of Preimplantation genetic diagnosis, SelectCCS improves the embryo selection process by accurately determining which embryos are euploid (normal number of chromosomes) or aneuploid (imbalance of chromosomes). By only transferring those embryos determined to be euploid, patients can make better decisions about their care and improve their chances of success with IVF. “We’re consistently generating 60 percent delivery rates with one embryo, which is great for mom and baby as well as for health-care providers and insurance companies,” added Dr. Shastri.

New Trinitas surgeon enhances multidisciplinary cancer care team

D

r. Adriana Suarez-Ligon has joined Trinitas Regional Medical Center’s growing roster of prestigious surgeons, with a specialization in breast surgery. She comes highly trained in the spectrum of benign and malignant breast diseases, and has become an expert in breast pathology. She offers such procedures as breast conservation surgery, sentinel lymph node biopsies, and axillary node dissections.

“I truly believe that optimal care is delivered when all involved in delivering care (a multidisciplinary team) and receiving care (the patient and their family) work together to achieve the same goal,” says Dr. Suarez-Ligon.

Breast cancer treatment requires local and systemic therapies. The cornerstone of local therapy is surgery. Research has proven that a multidisciplinary approach to breast cancer treatment increases survival.

The Trinitas Comprehensive Cancer Center (TCCC) is comprised of medical oncologists, a radiation oncologist, a plastic surgeon, and a certified breast cancer navigator. The team is now complete with Dr. Suarez.

TCCC offers several programs, including Prostate Brachytherapy, Accelerated Partial Breast Radiation Therapy, Stereotactic Radiotherapy (SABR), and Stereotactic Body Radiation (SBRT), which uses highly focused radiation to give intense treatment to a tumor while minimizing doses to the surrounding healthy organs. The expansion of the multidisciplinary team will now allow these programs and medical experts to collaborate seamlessly when necessary.

For more information, call 908-994-5025.

Eliminating barriers to preventative dental care

C

ommitted to ensuring that preventive dental care is available and affordable for all, Adam E. Feret, DMD, and his team at Westfield Smiles have created a new membership plan to better serve the community. This plan allows members with or without insurance to receive two cleanings within a 12-month period, an emergency exam, X-rays, and 20 percent off any additional treatments. The in-house plan, without maximums or deductibles, was put in place for patients who might otherwise forego maintaining their oral health due to financial constraints, said practice manager Alice Brown.

“We’re eliminating obstacles to people receiving preventative dental care,” she said. “Normally the plan is $349, which is already a fantastic deal, but now it’s unbeatable at $99. We put this in place because there were patients who were not going to the dentist regularly for financial reasons.

Previously, it cost $297 just for an exam. Not everyone has that in their budget.”

But, as Brown pointed out, ignoring a dental issue will not make it go away. Skipping regular checkups can lead to more pervasive, and ultimately, more costly issues. “Putting off dental care for three to five years is quite common,” Brown said. “So a small cavity that hasn’t been checked by a dentist and no one is monitoring can go from originally costing $300 to jumping up as high as $3,000 because it’s gotten that much worse. Now you might need a root canal and a crown as opposed to a filling. It could cost you 10 times as much as it would if it had been caught when it was small.”

With this new membership plan in place, Dr. Feret and his team see approximately 100 new patients per month. To meet the demand, Westfield Smiles has welcomed Dr. Maral Regas to the practice and has extended its hours. Having another practitioner on staff also allows Westfield Smiles to provide same-day service.

“If you have a check-up and you need a filling, you can have it all done at once,” Brown said.

“There’s no need to make another appointment and come back. You can have it taken care of while

you’re here.”

In addition to financial concerns, Dr. Feret recognizes that fear and anxiety often prevent people from seeking treatment. To remove those stressors, Westfield Smiles offers a nonjudgmental approach that makes patients feel welcome and relaxed.

“We’ve stopped asking, ‘When was your last check-up?’ when people make appointments because it makes them feel judged,” Brown said.

“Our staff works hard to increase the patient’s comfort level. People come in with that deer-inheadlights look and when they come out, they say, ‘I can’t believe I just did that and I can’t believe it wasn’t that bad.’”

The service-oriented atmosphere, coupled with high-quality care, has allowed patients of all ages to conquer their fears. “People have a tendency to get wrapped up and overwhelmed by the whole scenario but Dr. Feret said, ‘I’ll tell you what you need and I’ll give you what you want. One tooth at a time.’ We’re putting our money where your mouth is in order to eliminate barriers toward preventative dentistry,” Brown said.

The office is open Mondays, 8 a.m.-8 p.m.; Tuesdays, 8 a.m.-7 p.m.; Wednesdays, 8 a.m.-6 p.m.; Thursdays, 8 a.m.-5 p.m.; Fridays, 8 a.m.-4 p.m.; and Saturdays, 8 a.m.-2 p.m.

Are Your Ears Ringing?

News Worth Hearing from a JFK Medical Center Audiologist

A

lmost everyone has experienced “ringing in the ears” at some point in their life. For most, the sensation – which healthcare professionals call tinnitus – is temporary and a minor annoyance. For others, however, the persistence or intensity of the noise represents a significant distraction, a cause for anxiety, and even a major obstacle to going about their everyday activities. When tinnitus affects quality of life, physicians frequently refer sufferers to Virginia Gural-Toth, AuD, CCC-A, and her colleagues at the Center for Audiology at JFK Medical Center in Edison. Dr. Gural-Toth, Manager for Audiology Programs at the Center, recently answered Central Jersey Healthy Living’s questions about tinnitus and how the Center for Audiology helps people deal with the condition.

Q. What exactly is tinnitus?

A. People typically refer to tinnitus as “ringing in the ears” and, while that is a good description of the sound that many experience, tinnitus can manifest itself as any number of noises, including as a buzz, whine, or other sounds, in addition to “ringing.” Whether in one ear or both ears, the person is hearing a noise that is not coming from the external environment but is originating in his or her ear or head. The frequency and intensity of tinnitus also can vary considerably from person to person and over the course of time. Similarly, there is wide variation in how people respond to tinnitus and how critical an issue it becomes in their lives.

Q. Who is at risk for tinnitus?

A. Advancing age is one of the main risk factors. In fact, roughly one in seven people in their 60s reports experiencing the condition. Other risk factors include

open 7 days

trauma or illness directly affecting the ear, exposure to loud noises, male gender, and smoking. Cardiovascular conditions and diabetes are associated with increased risk for tinnitus and, while it would be uncommon for someone’s heart disease or diabetes to cause him to first seek medical attention because of a complaint of ringing in the ears, this connection underscores the importance of seeking prompt medical evaluation for tinnitus. Similarly, some medications have been associated with tinnitus, so it is important for any ringing in the ears to be discussed with a physician who may make a medication adjustment or provide a referral to JFK’s program.

Q. Can tinnitus be cured?

A. Unfortunately, at this time there is no cure for tinnitus – despite what others may have told you or what you have seen on television “infomercials,” none of the supposed cures for tinnitus have proven themselves in clinical trials.

Q. If tinnitus can’t be cured, what does your program offer people?

A. We help people deal effectively with the impact tinnitus is having on their lives. Through a comprehensive, evidence-based approach called Tinnitus Retraining Therapy, we enable people to reduce the extent to which the noise interferes with their quality of life. While the degree of success depends on a number of factors, 80% or more of patients experience significant improvement.

Q. How does your program work?

A. The first step is a medical evaluation to rule out serious underlying conditions. The physician then writes a prescription for the services we provide.

We begin with a very thorough assessment, which includes determining what risk factors may have contributed

to the tinnitus and the impact the condition is having on the person’s life. A standard audiological test is conducted to check for hearing loss, which typically accompanies tinnitus.

When indicated by the results of the standard hearing testing or other factors, we also conduct sophisticated otoacoustic emissions testing.

We then look at all of the test results and other information we have gathered to formulate an individualized approach to Tinnitus Retraining Therapy.

Q. If you could tell people just one thing about tinnitus, what would it be?

A. People often use the phrase “suffering in silence” to describe enduring a difficult condition without speaking up or taking action. In the case of tinnitus, this might instead be described as “suffering with noise” and – just like suffering in silence – there is no need to do so. If you are experiencing tinnitus, see your physician for a medical evaluation. This is essential for identifying and addressing any underlying condition and is a necessary first step for referral to the services we offer at the Center for Audiology at JFK Medical Center.

As I mentioned, we are able to help 80% or more of our patients obtain significant relief from tinnitus, and the sooner you seek help, the sooner you’re able to begin reducing the toll that ringing in the ears takes on your quality of life.

For more information regarding Tinnitus from the Center for Audiology at JFK Medical Center, as well as its many other hearing-related services, visit jfkaudiology.org or call 732-321-7063.

A new concept in kitchen and bath beauty

Y

ou are in for some wonderful surprises upon your first visit to ANEW Kitchen & Bath. The showroom experience is very up close and personal…by design. The moment you walk through the door, the tranquility of the space and the beauty of the displays draw you in further. There are multiple working displays that allow you to place your hands into the cascading rainfall of the showerheads or the gentle bubbles of an air tub, and feel the quality of the solid wood cabinetry.

“Nature is definitely our inspiration,” says owner Vicki Sarracino.

Visitors are welcome to touch the fixtures, sit in the tubs, and open the vanities.

ANEW Kitchen & Bath makes it a priority to stay updated on the latest trends and technologies such as steam showers with state-of-the-art sound systems that can connect to your cell phone or a vanity finish that will stay in style. Whether you are looking for marble, wood, glass, chrome, or a design that’s classic or cutting-edge temporary, ANEW Kitchen & Bath has the tools to create your dream space.

Along with a wide variety of fixtures that are available in any style or finish, the vanity possibilities are endless as well. Guests are able to apply any color, door style, and size to a cabinet of their liking. Already have a cabinetry concept in mind? Bring it with you to the showroom and let the design staff bring your idea to life.

“The bathroom is where we start and end our day,” Sarracino says. “It’s an important space. Our goal is to create a sanctuary that supports wellness and health while possessing a timeless design that you will enjoy over the years, so we carry products that can accomplish that in our showroom.”

Solid wood vanities and quartz countertops are capable of holding up to many years of daily use while maintaining their unique style.

Add an Air tub to quickly soothe and relax your muscles, or a rainfall shower with LED chromatherapy lights. Chromatherapy helps you take advantage of the energy embodied in specific colors of light to reestablish and maintain balance and vitality in your life. Aromatherapy is also an option to create a spa-like experience. The use of essential oils from aromatic plants, flowers, and resins stimulate the sense of smell and allow the whole body to benefit therapeutically.

With health in mind, this “green” showroom was built to achieve Silver LEED certification, making it the only bath showroom in the area to boast such an award. The showroom carries a wide variety of ecofriendly products for the bath, including water-saving faucets and showerheads, formaldehyde-free furniture, radiant towel warmers, and more. The staff is always happy to educate consumers, designers, and contractors about ways to create a beautiful, greener bath.

Strut 365™ gives EWC guests the opportunity to get gorgeous, every day, through their new skincare – Strut Smoothly™, bath and body – Strut Lavishly™, and brow – Strut Boldly™ collections.

It is their philosophy, level of service, propriety products, comfortable environment and waxing experience combined that sets EWC apart to be recognized as the leader in the beauty and waxing services categories, which is why their guests Walk In, Strut Out. As always, European Wax Center offers every new guest a complimentary service: lip, eyebrow, or bikini line service for women; and an eyebrow, ear, or nose service for men.

Now, a luxurious waxing with proprietary products can be incorporated into everyone’s beauty regimen. European Wax Center enables everyone to reveal beautiful skin. As a result, today, European Wax Center is recognized as the fastest growing company in the beauty lifestyle services category.
