A reading of In This House at TRTC.

THAT JOHN D

B

In This House poster, detail

y the time the first audience sat down in their seats at the Marion Huber Theater, miles and miles of creative track had been laid down that led to the door of In This House, the world-premiere chamber musical at the Two River Theater that merited an extended run before it even opened, due to demand from theater subcribers and to accommodate single ticket sales. It is part of a growing excitement — and rapidly expanding audience — as the 2011-2012 season continues to reveal the vitality and vision of the theater’s new artistic director, John Dias. His passion and sensitivity for the development of original plays and musicals have put him in the vanguard of new American theater, and, now, The Two River Theater along with him.

In This House is not only a masterwork of creative collaboration and commitment, but also, most importantly, a rare example of a new play — never mind a musical — that has actually come to fruition. It is an extraordinary and thrilling process that the Two River Theater is keen on sharing with everyone, reaching out into the community to engage a larger and larger audience to come and share in the experience. As evidenced by the extended run of the production, more and more people are accepting the invitation.

John Dias first fell in love with the team of Sarah Schlesinger and Mike Reid when he saw a production of their musical, The Ballad of Little Jo, at the Steppenwolf Theater and knew he wanted to work with them. Years later, In This House gave him the chance.

Sarah Schlesinger chairs the Graduate Musical Theatre Writing department of the Tisch School of the Arts at NYU. Mike Reid is a Grammy Award winning Nashville songwriter whose hits include “I Can’t Make You Love Me,” made famous by Bonnie Rait. They have been making musicals together for more than a decade.

Sarah writes the lyrics. Mike writes the music. Together, they write the stories.

The idea for In This House came to Sarah when she was standing in the attic of a house her husband was renovating in Baltimore. She heard a helicopter outside, but inside the room, time went backwards. She was holding scraps of the past, pieces of paper from the ordinary lives of the people who had lived in the house, grocery lists and clippings, stuffed behind the wallboards. It touched her to think of the people who had lived within these walls, the relationships, the struggles, what it took for people to stay together...and the story that was to become In This House was off and running.

At the core, the play explores the question of how do you hold relationships together, like long term marriage witnessed here. How do you keep it together when it is easy to lose track of the beginning and go down petty, finger-pointing roads. In This House brings two couples together in a unity of time and place where everything is happening in front of you They meet accidentally, a younger and older couple, one at the beginning, one at the end of their time together.

N DIAS IS BUILDING

by CJ ANSORGE

THE TWO RIVER THEATER IS A PLACE WHERE ARTISTS CAN DO THEIR BEST WORK, AND WHERE AUDIENCES CAN PARTICIPATE IN THE CREATION OF PLAYS AND MUSICALS, BOTH GREAT CLASSICS AND ORIGINAL STORIES...AND WE LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING YOU AT THE THEATER. - John Dias, Artistic Director

A chamber musical is an intimate form that has none of the razzmatazz of its larger relative. In This House is told in four characters with a small orchestra — a piano, cello, winds, and violin. The music is integral to the storyline, seamlessly woven into the plot and characters and dialogue. The expressionistic set is staged on a platform in the black box space of the Huber Theater, with the audience seated close up to the performance, surrounding the stage. It sets up a more personal relationship to performance that allows you to see the characters as real people, and, in time, care about their stories.

John Dias first saw In This House in a workshop. It was the piece he had been waiting for and committed to making part of his first full season at the Two River Theater. Jonathan Bernstein joined the team as co-writer, bringing a sharp ear for dialogue and years of experience with him as the supervising director of eight Broadway shows. What followed was months of collaborative effort, working and refining every inch of the piece, along, of course, with casting and staffing, costumes and set design, and the myriad details that need tending to mount a production. What is new to the process is the joy of bringing the audience into experience as co-collaborators.

In March, the Two River Theater invited an audience to hear a reading. The Huber Theater was packed. These works-inprogress are free and open to the public, meant to open a conversation between artists and audiences — a critical feedback in the development stages of a piece that give the people who wrote the piece the chance to feel it. “It give us the chance to understand what it is that doesn’t work,” explains Sarah.

“To see the whole thing in context, the whole building, not room by room.”

(L) John Dias; (R) Mike Reid, Sarah Schlesinger, and Jonathan Bernstein

IN THIS HOUSE March 4 – April 8 Two River Theater/ Marion Huber Theater 21 Bridge Av | trtc.org

In July, Sarah, Mike and Jonathan did an artist-in-residence intensive. “This play, because it is a chamber piece, is very easy to run it off the road and run it into the ditch,” says Mike. “You’re never finished with it.”

More revisions. More rewrites. More editing. “The Wall” — a song inspired by the process of rebuilding stone walls as a metaphor for rebuilding after a divorce — made the cut.

“The name of the game is to do more with less,” Jonathan Bernstein explains. “To pair down, as relentlessly as possible, until you’re left with heart of the artichoke. This is a play based on a chance encounter that’s filled with secrets, stories, fears, joys, and the need to understand each other. By night’s end, if we’ve done our job right, it will have the ripple effect of being profound encounter between story and audience.”

Nothing would make John Dias happier than if you judge that for yourself.

LOOKING ON THE

by ALLISON BEEBER

F

alling in love with Red Bank has taken on a whole new meaning since Wedding Walk came to town — the big special-event day when wedding-related businesses roll out their red carpets for soon-to-be weds and their bridal parties, relatives, guests, and wedding planners. Now in its fourth year, 2012 Red Bank Wedding Walk, March 24, is the biggest ever with dozens of vendors, grand drawings and prizes, and a day filled with fun festivities and serious shopping. Just some of the prizes include a 6-day 5-night stay at a vacation/ guest home at a resort in Costa Rica, an overnight stay at the Molly Pitcher Inn, including a four-course dinner for two in the dining room and chilled champagne waiting for you on arrival, and a $1,000 gift certificate toward the purchase of wedding bands at a prominent Red Bank jewelry store.

“We created Wedding Walk in order to shine a spotlight on wedding related businesses,” say Nancy Adams, executive director of Red Bank RiverCenter, the Special Improvement District Management not-for-profit organization responsible for the event, along with the Red Bank Visitors Center and the event’s sponsors. “Our Promotions Committee realized anyone getting married could plan — and have — a fabulous wedding in Red Bank. We have everything right here, every step of the way.”

This year there are forty-eight participants in more than a dozen categories: Bakery, Fashions & Accessories, Florists, Hotel & Reception Sites, Invitations, Jewelers, Party Planning/Entertainment, Photography, Framing/Portraiture, Showers/Rehearsals/ Catering, Salons & Spas, Favors, and Transportation. Hundreds of attendees come from as far away as northern New Jersey and the New York border all the way down to the Philadelphia area, with many coming from the greater Red Bank area.

According to Adams, businesses have relocated to Red Bank to be part of the action.“Red Bank is well received in the wedding industry,“ she reports. “The town has a wonderful reputation throughout New Jersey, and beyond, for all it has to offer. It is a prestigious address for any business.”

In business since 1942, Mustillo’s at 11 Broad Street has been a destination for wedding gowns, bridal attire and accessories for generations. Marching down the aisle has a long tradition in Red Bank with Wedding Walk setting the pace for bridal shopping year round.

I’m IMPORTANT I believe in the power of early detection. I lost my husband to colon cancer at a young age. So, while my health has always been important, it is even more important now.

I am my children’s only parent and their biggest cheerleader.

They also know that Mom is a strong advocate for preventative medicine.

That is why I make it a priority to visit the Women’s Center at Riverview. The Center rivals any in New York or New Jersey.

I feel incredibly lucky to have Dr. Won right here in our community. I continue to put my health in her hands because I believe she is the best.

I am a parent. I am an advocate. I am important.

You are important too. Make time for your mammogram.

LOVE STORY

F

WEDDING DAY Above: Christelle & Tony Aponte; Left & below: Father of the Bride, Michel Berger, with daughter Christelle.

PHOTOS: Arun Paul Photography

or Christelle Berger, August 21, 2010, the day she married Tony Aponte was “the happiest in my life.” It was also one of many special occasions that Maureen Bay and her Fair Haven jewelry store, Gem of an Idea, have been in the picture in the Berger family album.

Christelle’s parents, Anne Marie and Michel, are long-time residents of Fair Haven whose love of community encompasses a commitment to shopping in the businesses in town, not just for conveniences and the occasional purchase, but as a priority — a choice of connection to place that is, for them, what makes a hometown more than an address. Their long-time relationship to Gem of an Idea is a perfect example.

When Tony formally asked Michel and Anne Marie for their daughter’s hand, the three entered into an engagement ring pact, unbeknownst to Christelle. Along with her permission, Anne Marie offered a family heirloom to Tony for the engagement ring — her mother’s diamond and emerald wedding ring. Although he had already put a deposit on a yellow diamond, Tony accepted the offer of the ring knowing his future-wife would love this family connection, and the surprise. Next stop: Gem of an Idea for the resetting of the stones.

Since Christelle was a little girl, her father had gone to Gem of an Idea every year for her Christmas present. “It’s always beautifully wrapped, a gold box wrapped within white paper, and I save it for the last,“ she explains. “I love jewelry and know I’ll love whatever’s inside.” So when Tony brought the ring to Maureen at Gem of an Idea, she already knew how to help him design the ring Christelle would love — and she was right.

Gem of an Idea opened in 1983, the year Christelle was born. A full service jewelry store, its selection of unique and special gem creations has made a lifetime of happy memories.

“I have so many stories in which Gem of an Idea is intertwined,” says Christelle. “Fainting after getting my ears pierced there...the annual Christmas presents from my daddy...all of the wedding jewelry — rings, necklace, earrings — from there. Maureen and the team have been part of my memories growing up.”

Christelle and Tony are expecting their first child in a few months.

The relationship to Gem of an Idea is a family tradition they plan to continue into the next generation GEM OF AN IDEA 740 River Road, Fair Haven 732.747.9339 31

Doing Business. Doing Good.

THE LITTLE SILVER BUSINESS & PROFESSIONAL ASSOCIATION

Serving the Local Community • Supporting Local Businesses • Making New Friends

T

he Little Silver Business & Professional Association (LSBPA) is in full swing in its fourth year. It is an organization of retail and service providers that either live in Little Silver or have put down their business roots there. It is a group that believes in making good neighbors, supporting community, the importance of local economics, and the goodness of giving back.

Above: The Art Room of Little Silver hosts a LSBPA Women’s Night Out with (L-R) Lori Saybolt, Erica Malone, Mary Fox, Tracey Witter, Becky Aheam, Meg Mannix,Victoria Rogers, Maureen Hourigan, Maggie Simon, Jill Ryan, and Ellen O'Connor

Formed in 2008 as the bright idea of Lori Saybolt, manager of The Woman’s Exchange in town, the organization was planted with a handful of enthusiastic supporters and quickly bloomed into a membership that is now 65 businesses — and growing. There are meetings, special events, lunches, Facebook connections, networking opportunities...but, more importantly, it is a community within a community that provides a place for people to get to know each other, look out for one another, and come together in a common cause.

Erica Melone, owner of Skin & Bones Day Spa and LSBPA co-vice president, has been a part of the Little Silver business community since 1988. “I have seen, first hand, what a difference this organization has made,“ she explains. “Never before had I known the other business owners on such an intimate level or had such a good understanding of Little Silver as a community. We all work together to come up with ways to help our friends and neighbors and showcase all of the good of Little Silver. You can see some of our fun events and charitable donations by visiting our website, and we would really love for you to ‘like’ us on Facebook. We’re grateful when folks shop locally and, as business owners, we really appreciate your support.“ LSBPA members make a donation to Gwen Love, director of Lunch Break in Red Bank. L-R: Jay Cordaro, Gwen Love, Jill Ryan, Paul Giordano, Dee Morrissey, and Liz Gearon.

The LSBPA works closely with the Mayor and council, the local PTA, the fire department, the town workers, and the community at large to bring events to town for everyone to enjoy, along with all the shops and restaurants and businesses in Little Silver. There is the annual book fair in October, and holiday horse-drawncarriage rides in December. Look for the annual Side Walk Sale coming up May 17 to 19, and Dog Adoption Day, and the Blood Donation Drive and Bone Marrow Swab event, and the “Have a Heart Food Drive” to benefit Lunch Break... It all adds up to making a positive contribution to a better quality of life in community and bringing people into town to experience it.

The LSBPA meets the second Wednesday of each month at borough hall. New members warmly welcomed.

icholas and Melissa Harary’s story is an Americandream come true. A young couple gets married. He’s the master chef. She’s his muse. Together, they build a restaurant like no other, tending meticulously to every detail, setting the highest standards for everything, from the renovation of a building to the caliber of the cuisine. Charged with a crazy certainty that often characterizes the most creative entrepreneurs, they bet the ranch on the finish. Ten years later, they are definitely riding the winning horse. The story is shared in Nicholas Harary’s coffee-table size cookbook, Nicholas, The Cookbook, along with many of the signature recipes that have built the four-star reputation of his restaurant that opened in 2000. This year, Restaurant Nicholas has, once again, jumped to the top of the “Ten Best Restaurants in New Jersey” list, taking first place in the 2011/12 Zagat survey — just one in a steady stream of accolades that keep pouring in.

RESTAURANT NICHOLAS HAS GARNERED SOME OF THE HIGHEST PRAISES FROM ALL AVENUES OF THE FOOD INDUSTRY, INCLUDING FOUR STARS FROM THE NEW YORK TIMES.

“What makes for our success,” says Nicholas, “is having a love of good food in common with the people who come to our restaurant, and we have a passion for what we do.” It’s that “live to eat” philosophy, and the pure inspiration of making “good food,” that keeps Nicholas and his restaurant on the creative edge of cooking — and customers coming back for more.

Eating in the main dining room at Restaurant Nicholas is an experience worthy of the residents of Downton Abbey. Dishes are served with impeccable Melissa & Nicholas Harary presentation, each given the attention deserving of a culinary work of art. Butter Poached Nova Scotia Lobster, "Macaroni & Cheese," Bacon Tuille, Smoked Paprika Oil...Day Boat Sea Scallop, Ruby Red Grapefruit, Parsley Creme Fraiche, Herbal Fumet...Bourbon Braised Suckling Pig, Parisienne Apples, Black Trumpet Mushrooms, Bergamot...The three-course prix fixe menu — with recommended wine pairings — is designed for a luxurious evening out, with time allowed to enjoy it and diner reservations required.

Located just off the restaurant, a few steps away, Bar N is the casual counterpoint to the elegant formal dining room, with no reservations needed to drop in for a drink or order from the a la carte Bar Lounge Menu. Bar N also features a rotating three-course $29 tasting menu that changes daily, as well as a “Pre and Post Theater 3 Course Menu” for $29 to go with a performance at The Two River Theater or the Count Basie Theatre, a movie in town or a night out at any of the area’s cultural venues, any day of the week. You can come for an appetizer and drinks, go see a show, and come back for dinner and dessert.

Bar N opens at 4:15pm every day — earlier than the dining room at 5:30pm — and stays open late (11:30pm Sunday to Thursday; 1am Friday and Saturday). “There’s a ‘witching hour’ for young couples,” say Nicholas. “It’s when the baby sitter is still on and they can come here to be together and just relax.”

Relaxing is a piece of cake — literally, if Lemon Pudding Cake with Yogurt Sorbet and Huckleberry Sauce is your choice dessert. All the selections on The Bar Lounge Menu are full portion equivalents of the formal dining room dishes, with some specials served only at Bar N. The “Lobster Sunday” three-course $29 menu is a favorite. So are monthly specials like bouillabaisse, the mixed seafood stew inspired by the time Nicholas and Melissa spent in the south of France. Bar N hosts wine seminars where four wines are paired with tastes from the kitchen and the winemakers are on hand to discuss the wines and answer questions. Reservations are required for these popular events In addition to a fully stocked bar, Bar N cocktails are another featured special, made only with the freshest ingredients. No Rose’s Lime Juice here. There is only fresh squeezed lime in the Bar N Cosmopolitan. Or try a Pineapple Mojito or a Rhubarb Martini. “Everything served here is made by us from ingredients as close to nature as you can get,” explains Nicholas. “The unique blending of fresh, natural flavors makes all the difference in the taste — in our food and in our cocktails. At first, people can’t believe the difference, and then they don’t want it any other way.”

RETROGRADE TIMES TWO Between now and mid-April, two of the usually fastest-moving planets, Mars and Mercury, will be spending time with their celestial gearshifts in the “R-for-Retrograde” position.

Planets actually always move in a forward direction, but because their orbits are not perfectly circular, all but the Sun and Moon sometimes appear to be moving backwards. When this happens, they are said to be retrograde. When planets are retrograde, their energies are not expressed as clearly as when they are moving forward. It’s like how you can drive much more comfortably and easily when you’re heading down the interstate than when you’re backing out of the driveway. When planets are REtrograde, the rule of thumb is to slow down and do “RE” kinds of things (review, relax, retrospect, reorganize, reconsider, etc.) when it comes to the activities and energies represented by that planet.

MARS RETROGRADE January 23 - April 13, 2012 Mars represents our physical energy, our personal will and initiative, and our ability to assert ourselves in pursuit of our goals. When Mars moves forward in its orbit, we move forward in our lives. Every couple of years or so, it slows down and goes retrograde for a period of about two-and-a-half months. These are times when the Universe asks us to slow down our own pace as well. You might find that you’re feet feel like they’re wearing cement-lined sneakers when you try to push forward with a new project, or make progress on your New Year’s resolutions.

It’s not unusual to feel physically tired during this period. It’s time to RElax more. Spend time REviewing your priorities and commitments. REconsider whether you’ve bitten off more than you can chew. Although it’s not the time to initiate major undertakings if you can help it, you can certainly keep the ball rolling on anything you’ve started, though you might want to think about slowing your pace and energetic commitment, even if it means extending the time line.

Mars also relates to anger and aggression, and if you’ve been burying frustration and irritation for any reason, now’s the time to RE-examine the origins and see what you can do to bring everything out in the open where it can dissipate.

Once the fiery planet goes direct on April 13th, you can be REjuvenated and ready to move forward, full steam ahead!

MERCURY RETROGRADE March 12 - April 4, 2012 Mercury, the planet representing how we learn, think, and communicate, goes retrograde three times a year for about three weeks. When speedy, agile Mercury slows down and moves backward life can become confusing, and misunderstandings of all kinds can be a dime-adozen, because everyone on the planet is affected. Because no one is thinking as clearly as they are when Mercury is moving forward, it’s not a good time to make big decisions if you don’t have to...or to sign contracts, negotiate big deals, start new initiatives etc. However, it is a great period for “chilling,” and sorting things out internally through REflection, REview, and REtrospection.

It might not be a bad idea to turn off the ringtone on all phones and schedule a relaxing getaway, even if it’s only to your own favorite, coziest part of your home, when the two back-stepping planets join hands between March 12 and April 4. At the least, try to get your income tax done before the twelfth.
