Losing Their Homes?

Economic Development vs. Social Justice? !"#$%#&'()*"(**+,$,-""*-%+&%'$.*/%0*/%$ being gentrified or simply ignored?! ::BY DANIEL SHAW ilwaukee Alderman Bob Bauman said he has learned a lot from reading the “anti-displacement plan” released in early March by Milwaukee officials. But the lessons he took away might not be exactly what the people behind the report had envisioned. Rather than hard data showing that long-time residents are being forced out of their homes, Bauman found yet more evidence that Milwaukee’s Downtown development boom is not spilling over into nearby neighborhoods.

The city’s report, titled “A Place in the Neighborhood: An AntiDisplacement Plan for Neighborhoods Surrounding Downtown Milwaukee,” came in response to a general concern that the recent influx of new money would put older, likely poorer, residents under pressure to move.

To be sure, the plan does point to several neighborhoods where warning signs associated with displacement and gentrifications are present. But those places are almost all found in census tracts lying immediately south and north of the city’s Downtown area. What’s more, the plan doesn’t put the changes down to any one cause. It acknowledges that displacement and gentrification could be the main drivers, but so could any number of other factors.

“The conclusion is there is really not a gentrification problem in Milwaukee, with the possible exception of the Brewer’s Hill neighborhood,” Bauman said. “And, if anything, the nearwest side is going in the opposite direction. It’s actually continuing to see declines in household income and assessed values.”

4 | APRIL 12, 2018

City officials are quick to say they don’t disbelieve residents who have expressed concerns about losing their homes. Many people living in the Walker’s Point neighborhood (just south of Downtown) and the Harambee neighborhood (just north) have been jarred in recent years by offers made by developers seeking to buy up owner-occupied houses and turn them into rental properties. Still, even city officials acknowledge that Milwaukee is not close to becoming the next Brooklyn, N.Y. “We don’t want to minimize what someone feels,” said Sam Leichtling, long-term planning manager for the Milwaukee Department of City Development. “Those things are real. They are happening. The goal of this plan is to make it clear to people that they have a choice in the matter, and that there are people out there who are willing to help them.”

To learn where displacement and gentrification might be occurring in Milwaukee, local officials looked for various telltale signs.

Among them were changes in household incomes, assessed values, racial composition of neighborhoods, homeownership percentages and the availability of affordable housing. As Bauman noted, the report found that, when changes were occurring in a specific place, they were more often than not signs that a neighborhood was becoming less affluent. In other words, these were places that were moving in the opposite direction of gentrification.

In the end, city officials found only 10 census tracts showing what the plan deemed the two primary signs of displacement: a loss of low-income households and an increase in assessed values. Another seven tracts showed two indicators of gentrification: a decrease in the nonwhite population and an increase in household incomes. Of the latter, most if not all were in places where long-time residents have been the most vocal: Brewer’s Hill, Walker’s Point and the southern sections of the Harambee and Riverwest neighborhoods.

Still, the report was quick to caution against putting the changes seen in those neighborhoods down to gentrification and displacement exclusively. In several spots west of Interstate 43, for instance, population loss, combined with the demolition of run-down houses, has taken some cheap properties off the market. That, however, does not necessarily mean people are being displaced, especially if the places being knocked down were vacant.

From Vacancy to Residency

The report also cautions that the data might have been skewed by the conversion of once underused or unoccupied properties to residential purposes. Bauman noted that apartments and condos have been built at industrial sites in Riverwest and near the Pabst Brewery campus. Those sorts of projects can lead to a spike in household incomes and an influx of white residents.

No one is being displaced, though, because there wasn’t really anyone living there in the first place, and because those areas were not used for residential purposes, it would be hard to argue that the newcomers had altered the neighborhoods’ character in a way that could be deemed gentrification.

“Take Commerce Street as an example,” Bauman said. “Developers started from scratch there. They replaced no one and nothing except for some coal yards and railroad tracks. No one lived there.”

Leichtling conceded that academics and researchers have struggled to come up with a reliable way of measuring displacement and gentrification. One obstacle here has been the fact that poorer neighborhoods tend to have higher percentages of renters. He added that researchers have long known that tenants are more likely than homeowners to move. But when they try to understand exactly what might lead someone to pick up stakes, they have a much harder time singling out a cause.

nternational students have been a growing presence on U.S. campuses since the 1940s. Just in the past decade, their numbers almost doubled—increasing from 583,000 in 2006 to slightly more than a million in 2016. With President Donald Trump’s aggressive anti-immigrant rhetoric, the travel ban and heated talk in Washington, D.C., about tariffs and possible immigration restrictions for students—particularly from China—international student administrators in Milwaukee are sighing and hoping for the best.

Even before the recent tough talk about Chinese students—who make up 30% of all international students in the U.S.—international student enrollment was declining. According to a 2018 National Science Foundation !"#$!%, international undergraduate enrollment fell 2.2% from fall 2016 to 2017, while graduate enrollment declined 5.5%. &#"'()$$!* reported that the number of first-time international students declined by 7% in the 2017-’18 academic year. Meanwhile, the number of international students in Canada increased by 20% from 2016 to 2017 according to the +,',-.,'(/0!",0(1$!(2'%"!',%.$',3(4-05,%.$'.

Washington’s tough talk has proved to be controversial within the business community. “Targeting foreign students will undermine U.S. competitiveness, not enhance it,” a recent /3$$67"!8("-.%$!.,3 opined under a headline that read “Reducing student visas for foreigners is selfdefeating and un-American.”

The new policies and tough talk are taking their toll locally. At UWMilwaukee, the number of international students is down from a high of around 1,600 in 2015 to 1,462 this year, a decline over three years of around 8%. These students come from 91 countries, and about 100 students come from travel-ban countries. “UWM has the second-highest number of international students after Madison,” says Jennifer Gruenewald, director of the university’s International Student and Scholar Services. Despite the downturn, she says that the university remains “very strong. We have not seen the decline that other schools have.”

The Trump Effect Yet, she does have concerns. Since Trump was elected president, she has seen an increase in the time spent counseling students about the travel ban, as well as about travel and reentry to the U.S. She also has noticed increased concerns about work authorization, because there is talk in our nation’s capital about changes to this program. The optional program allows students to work for a year after graduation as part of their student visa. Gruenewald adds that students also are expressing increased concerns about racial and cultural stereotypes and the impact they might have on their experience. “It’s scary for a foreigner to come here just based on the news,” Gruenewald says. “I’ve been in this field for 20 years, and it just feels very different now.”

Despite the uncertainties and a charged political environment, Gruenewald says UWM remains “a very welcoming place for international students. They have a real opportunity here to be a contributing member to campus life. They have a lot to contribute. And a lot to gain.” However, she adds that the decline in international enrollment “is making UWM a less diverse campus. I am really hopeful that the downward trend won’t continue. UWM is an R1 campus for research, and that is helping. That is very attractive to students to have that ranking.” An “R1” rating is a Carnegie Classification of 6 | APRIL 12, 2018

2'*%.%0%.$'*($1(9.8:"!(4-05,%.$' rating for top research universities in the country. UWM achieved this ranking in 2016. Only 115 out of 4,665 American universities are rated R1.

International Enrollment Increases in Madison Bucking national trends, international applications at UW-Madison have increased by 15% this year according to Roopa Rawjee, assistant dean of International Student Services. This is because UW-Madison “has an exceptionally strong brand nationally and internationally,” she says. Rawjee states that application submissions also have been robust because Madison is using the universal +$66$'(;##3.5,%.$' for admissions and because the university is diversifying its reach to countries beyond the mature markets in China, India and South Korea. UWMadison currently has 4,000 international students from 120 countries enrolled. ;%(<,!=0"%%"(>'.?"!*.%@A(.'%"!',%.$',3(,##3.5,%.$'*(#",B"-(.'(CDEF( 70%(1"33(.'(CDEG(,'-(CDEHA(,55$!-.'8(%$(433"'(/3,0IA(,**$5.,%"(-.!"5J tor of MU’s Office of International Education.

We just think that there may be some other factors coming into play besides those usual factors.”

Blauw says international events, safety, career opportunities and the feeling that the U.S. is a welcoming place are all factors that shape a family’s decision about country and school. Around 50% of MU’s international students are Chinese; students from 63 countries make up the university’s total international population.

Benefits of an International Education “Most of us in this field see international education as important for all involved,” Blauw says. Domestic students who may not have the opportunity to learn about a culture by direct experience through foreign travel or exchange can still have that experience by sitting next to someone in a classroom, by living in the apartment next to them and by riding the bus with them, she adds. Likewise, international students “who come here will benefit from [higher education in the U.S.] and go on in their lives—whether it’s here or back home—and from the experience of a culture that values their perspectives.” About 25% of MU’s American undergraduates have participated in foreign exchange programs when they graduate.

Besides making intellectual contributions and enhancing cultural diversity on college campuses and in the wider community, international students also contribute $37 billion annually to the U.S. economy, according to the National Association of Foreign Student Advisers. More than 13,000 international students add $400 million to the economy and support 5,000 jobs throughout the state of Wisconsin. In the greater Milwaukee area, international students contribute more than $106 million annually to the economy through their enrollment at 11 colleges and universities.

DESPITE THE UNCERTAINTIES AND A CHARGED POLITICAL ENVIRONMENT, GRUENEWALD SAYS UWM REMAINS “A VERY WELCOMING PLACE FOR INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS. THEY HAVE A REAL OPPORTUNITY HERE TO BE A CONTRIBUTING MEMBER TO CAMPUS LIFE. THEY HAVE A LOT TO CONTRIBUTE. AND A LOT TO GAIN.”

Tax March II @ Milwaukee County Courthouse (901 N. Ninth St.), noon-3 p.m.

Last year, protesters gathered in more than 180 cities to demand that Donald Trump release his tax returns. Protesters will gather again this year, but this time it is to push Congress to implement progressive taxation, a return to an estate tax that ensures the richest 0.1% isn’t passing along dynastic wealth, and a tax code that favors Main Street over Wall Street.

NEWS&VIEWS::TAKINGLIBERTIES

The Republican Corruption of Conservatism ::BY JOEL MCNALLY

A

s a liberal, I was happy to see Justice Rebecca Dallet’s landslide election to the Wisconsin Supreme Court hailed nationally as more evidence of a growing Blue Wave that many folks desperately hope will create a real check in November on a dangerously ignorant, racist president. But as a journalist, I realized there was something not quite right about the national media’s repeated description of Judge Dallet’s victory as the triumph of a liberal candidate over a conservative one; technically, state supreme court races in Wisconsin are non-partisan.

Yeah, I know. In the increasingly ugly elections to the court in recent years, that often was only a technicality. Over the past decade, the media usually wasn’t far from wrong when describing one candidate as liberal and the other as conservative simply based on the politically polarized voters supporting them.

But in judicial races, liberal is an extremely relative term.

Despite what you hear on right-wing talk

radio, the judiciary is by definition a conservative profession. The career path to a judgeship almost always goes through the prosecutor’s office. Very rarely does a defense attorney ever become a judge.

Rebecca Dallet was actually the candidate in the race who followed that conventional conservative route to the state supreme court.

Her qualifications included spending a decade as a prosecutor in the district attorney’s office and on loan to the U.S. attorney, followed by another decade as a judge. All judges should be fair-minded, decent people like Dallet, but most of a judge’s time is spent convicting and incarcerating offenders. It’s a stretch to call that liberal.

Synonymous with Dishonesty and Corruption Dallet’s election opponent Michael Screnock’s more dubious credentials were very different. But there’s no question he was far more conservative—at least as conservatism is currently defined within the Republican Party. But therein lies the problem. What Republicans call conservatism these days is so twisted and extreme that it’s becoming virtually indistinguishable from dishonesty, corruption and bigotry.

Screnock was appointed a judge in 2015 by Republican Gov. Scott Walker as a reward for the novice attorney’s partisan work for a Republican law firm defending Walker’s destruc-

tion of union bargaining rights and helping to draw corruptly gerrymandered Wisconsin voting districts that were thrown out by a federal court as unconstitutional.

The dishonest redistricting by Screnock’s law firm so distorted voting in the 2012 election won by incumbent President Barack Obama in Wisconsin that, even though Republicans received only 48% of the vote statewide, they won 60 seats in the state assembly compared to only 39 for Democrats. The U.S. Supreme Court currently is deciding whether Wisconsin’s gerrymandering was so extreme that it denied citizens their constitutional right to vote and elect their own representatives.

Screnock’s fundamental disregard for constitutional rights has a long history. As a student at UW-Madison, he was arrested twice in 1989 for attempting to physically block women from entering an abortion clinic (abortion being a constitutionally protected right in the U.S. since 1973). During the campaign, Screnock said he had no regrets about illegally trying to prevent women from seeking abortions and saw no reason to recuse himself from abortion rights cases.

Such questionable ethics on Screnock’s part are common among the other members of the so-called conservative majority on Wisconsin’s court. After Wisconsin Manufacturers and Commerce (WMC), the state’s richest business lobby, spent more than $10 million to elect a five-to-two, pro-business, conservative majority to the court, that majority passed what it called an “ethics rule.” Nobody else would call it that. It’s a brazenly unethical rule creating an openly corrupt court.

Rewarding Campaign Donors The rule says justices aren’t required to recuse themselves from cases simply because one of the parties before them—oh, let’s say the WMC—has contributed millions of dollars to elect them to the court. Justices can pay their campaign donors back with decisions worth millions of dollars. Their conflict of interest is obvious to any honest person. And that’s the real problem with dividing judicial candidates—and many other candidates, for that matter—into categories of “liberal” and “conservative” these days.

Republicans have completely discredited conservatism. People don’t believe me any more when I tell them I grew up surrounded by conservative Republicans who were not openly dishonest. They didn’t justify corrupt actions filling their own pockets by the constant stream of provable lies we see coming from the White House and Republican leadership today.

Honest conservatives should care about conserving the fundamental principles of democracy written by our founding fathers who didn’t even realize at the time those beautiful ideals one day would apply to mothers and daughters and the descendants of their slaves and the rich, cultural diversity of immigrants who would build America.

Republicans desperately need to restore integrity to conservatism; honesty and integrity should be embraced across the political spectrum, but that won’t be possible until the Republicans stop intentionally appealing to white supremacists and trying to destroy fundamental principles of democracy and equality.

What the Koch Brothers and the ACLU Agree on but Wisconsin Republicans Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t Understand about Mass Incarceration ::BY EVAN GOYKE

T

he most meaningful corrections reform since the current majority party took over Wisconsin government in 2011 is 2017â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bipartisan passage of Act 185, which will close the Lincoln Hills youth prison. While this is a success for juvenile corrections, it also only came after years of mismanagement, neglect and massive political and legal pressures. Wisconsin must now set a similar course to solve the overuse of incarceration within the adult criminal justice and corrections systems, and we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have years to wait.

Today, Wisconsinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s prisons are more than 140% full. That means, cells meant for one person have two and sometimes more stuffed into them. The overcrowding of Wisconsinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s prisons has spilled over into the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s county jails as well. As of Friday, April 6, 2018, there were 484 people serving state sentences in county jails.

This is a problem for many reasons.

First is the human cost. County jails are designed for short-term incarceration. Staying connected with family is more difficult, programming is rarely available, and access to recreation is limited. More important, inmates with different risks and needs are more likely to co-mingle, which can reduce staff and inmate safety. Second is the actual cost. At $51.50 per person, per day, Wisconsin is spending roughly $25,000 a day on prison overcrowding. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about $9 million a year. This is direct cash reimbursement to counties for use of their jail space.

Finally, the jail option is nearly at capacity as well. According to the Department of Corrections, there are 500 jail beds available throughout the state. With 484 of 500 filled (about 97%), this option is nearly exhausted. The remaining options are to build more capacity, send people to prisons out of state or to reform the system.

The final optionâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;true adult corrections reformâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;is the best, cheapest and most humane, and it will have the greatest positive impact on public safety.

The Best Option: Criminal Justice Reform Criminal justice reform in Wisconsin could take many forms, but most agree on core areas.

The first two areas of reform will reduce the prison population and save money. The savings should be reinvested in the third policy outlined below: A proven strategy that will reduce crime in our neighborhoods, promoting a positive cycle of less crime and less incarceration.

First, the community supervision system, including the process of revocation, needs an overhaul. Staff members carry too large a caseload and are provided few quality communitybased options. A network of meaningful, quality SHEPHERD EXPRESS

alternatives to revocation is needed. Those who violate the terms of their supervision must be held accountable, but â&#x20AC;&#x153;rules-onlyâ&#x20AC;? or â&#x20AC;&#x153;technicalâ&#x20AC;? violations of supervision should not result in automatic re-incarceration. A better process and more accountable decision making are needed when revocation is ordered, including weighing the costs of re-incarceration versus costs of alternatives to doing so.

Second, the so-called â&#x20AC;&#x153;old lawâ&#x20AC;? inmates who are eligible for parole should receive a realistic opportunity to determine if they can be released.

These inmates have been incarcerated since before 1999. Wisconsinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s parole commission has established conditions that are nearly impossible to meet. For example, an inmate may be required to have work experience outside a prison, yet the waitlist for such a limited experience can be years long. A thorough and new review of parole-eligible inmates is needed.

Third, reinvest the savings from the policies above in community- and neighborhood-based non-profit organizations that we know will help us achieve better community reintegration of inmates and greater public safety.

In his work, Uneasy Peace, professor and author Patrick Sharkey details individuals he met in Milwaukee, whom he labels â&#x20AC;&#x153;Community Guardians.â&#x20AC;? These individuals and their programs disrupt the unacceptable status quo at the neighborhood level. Groups like Safe and Sound, the Dominican Center for Women, and COA Youth and Family Centers have all been successful in Milwaukee; they and other groups like them should receive ongoing reinvestment from criminal justice reform.

Get with the Program, Wisconsin!

Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most frustrating about these steps is that other states are miles ahead of us. Nationally, liberal and conservative groups have joined together to advocate for similar policies. We should take notice whenever the Koch Brothers and the ACLU manage to agree on something; criminal justice reform is one such area.

To date, with the exception of closing Lincoln Hills, Wisconsin has ignored the lessons of reform from all around the country.

I hope Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll never say this again in my career, but letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s follow the examples set by Michigan, Texas and even Mississippi. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s learn from the successful reforms of their criminal justice systems. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s save money and reinvest it in our neighborhoodsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;the places where we have the greatest chance of success at reducing crime.

Evan Goyke is a member of the Wisconsin Legislature representing the 18th Assembly District.

THE COUNTRY CREOLE COOKBOOK ::BY DAVID LUHRSSEN Twenty miles up river from New Orleans is Louisiana’s Côte des Allemands (“German Coast”), settled in part by Franco-Germans from AlsaceLorraine. Nancy Tregre Wilson’s family has lived there for centuries and she draws from a deep well of family lore and recipes for Mémère’s Country Creole Cookbook. The ingredients found in Louisiana became the material for recipes whose French pedigree morphed in the New World. The simple flavors of onion, bell pepper, celery, salt and pepper are combined with crab, shrimp and crawfish into bisques, gumbos and boiled stews. How about shrimp-stuffed bell peppers? The recipes are easy to follow and in this foodie age, even the most exotic elements are accessible.

FEATURE | FILM | THEATRE | ART | BOOKS | CLASSICAL MUSIC | DANCE

We can expect art works to speak of the time of their creation.

Pink based his script on a mid-18th-century adaptation of the fairytale by French writer Jeanne-Marie Leprince de Beaumont, who was herself inspired by an earlier version by the woman writer Gabrielle Villeneuve. “What are the chances of that?” Pink exclaimed.

“Two women of that era writing without pseudonyms. It’s very much a woman’s story. It supports the idea that women are powerful people who need to be heard and need to be listened to.”

“Belle is the hero,” he continued. “She has a strong will, determination, imagination and she’s looking for something different than the norms of her community. She’s prepared to put herself in harm’s way and substitutes herself for her father when he gets into trouble with the Beast. She undertakes this enormously risky endeavor, not knowing how it will end.”

A Selfish Oaf

Milwaukee Ballet’s costume shop and rehearsal for ‘Beauty and the Beast’

!"#$%&'()"*+,-(.&/(

01&%234(%*5(3$&(1&%-3,( A SELFISH MAN AND A WOMAN WHO READS ::BY JOHN SCHNEIDER ith Beauty and the Beast, Michael Pink adds another full-length ballet to a body of work that includes his original takes on such disparate literary sources as Dracula, Peter Pan, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Snow White and The Picture of Dorian Gray. “With this one,” he said, “I have to be careful that I’ve made a piece for all ages, in particular because the expectations of the young ones are so high in terms of what they think they’re going to see after Disney.”

This won’t be Disney. It will, however, be a colorful spectacle to rival The Nutcracker in scale and variety. A new score by Philip Feeney, Pink’s collaborator of 30 years, will be given first life by conductor Andrews Sill and the Milwaukee Ballet Orchestra. Scenic designer Todd Edward Ivins (Mirror Mirror), costume designer Paul Daigle (La Bohème) and lighting designer David Grill (almost all the above) are the stellar production team. There are 92 costumes for a cast featuring both the professional and pre-professional companies and a multitude of youngsters from Milwaukee Ballet School and Academy. The role of Belle will be premiered by Nicole Teague-Howell and Annia Hidalgo, the Beast by Isaac Sharratt and Patrick Howell—all highly capable actor-dancers, just right for the characters as Pink has conceived them after years of thought.

18 | A P R I L 1 2 , 2 0 1 8

In a more radical update, Pink’s Beast is not an animal. “He’s a beastly person,” Pink said. “He’s a clumsy, selfish oaf who doesn’t understand how to be caring because he’s a privileged prince who gets everything he wants at the click of his finger.” When he spurns a group of starving children, the offspring of slaves, an enchantress causes thorny rose vines to wrap around his chest. They’ll tighten, break his heart and kill him if he doesn’t learn to love. “I find the idea of a hairy animal too restrictive,” Pink said. “The rose is the important part. When Belle’s father says, ‘I’m going on a journey, what would you like me to bring you?’ she answers, ‘I’d like a simple rose.’

But a rose isn’t simple, it’s very complex. It’s a symbol of life, of love, of blood.”

So when dad plucks a rose for Belle from the Beast’s garden and the dying vine-wrapped prince demands a daughter in exchange, Belle volunteers. “It dawned on me while I was researching the story that perhaps the adventure Belle is seeking, the adventure that is beyond the confines of her community, is the encounter with the Beast. It wasn’t to discover the cure for cancer or something, although it could very well have been that. She wouldn’t know it when she started out, but for me that became the adventure.”

Belle has two sisters in this version.

They’re courted by twin brothers from the family’s community. This subplot allowed Pink to create “almost a separate ballet,” he said, “very different from the Milwaukee story in the castle.” The worlds collide Ballet when Belle reappears in the midst of her Beauty and siblings’ double wedding, freed by the Beast to decide if she’ll return to him. the Beast He’s placed her happiness above his life.

Uihlein Hall Along with roses, Belle loves reading.

April 12-15 She rejects the finery the Beast would lavish on her but is grateful that her castle room is filled with books. In Pink’s words, “It’s a place of confidence and solace where she’s got an arsenal of literary characters that have faced difficulties and created pathways to deal with them and gotten through it.” Pink will bring the characters onstage as Belle reads: Red Riding Hood and her Wolf, the three little pigs and theirs, Rapunzel, Pinocchio and the Pied Piper. “At that age, she was probably reading War and Peace,” he acknowledged, “but marching soldiers and Anna Karenina might have been a tad heavy.” Again, he’s caring for the young ones, our nation’s future.

Books and ballets help us know one another. Without that, love isn’t possible.

7:30 p.m., April 12-14 and 1:30 p.m., April 14 and 15 at Uihlein Hall in the Marcus Center for the Performing Arts, 929 N. Water St. For tickets, call 414-902-2103 or visit milwaukeeballet.org.

Mouse Corn w/ Action Jelly, Dogs at Large and Devils Teeth @ Linneman’s Riverwest Inn, 9 p.m.

For more than a half decade, Myles Coyne has been one of the most prolific players in the city’s indie-rock scene, fronting one project after another while moonlighting in plenty of side bands. His latest primary outlet is Mouse Corn, probably his most direct, rock ’n’ roll-minded of all of his bands, and the closest he’s ever come to capturing the raucous spirit of early Replacements. The band will celebrate the release of a new album at this show, Mouse Corn vs. the World, which is getting a limited cassette release on the Chicago label Midwest Action.! !

FRIDAY, APRIL 13

!

MJ Uncovered @ Turner Hall Ballroom, 8 p.m.

Uncovered ends its 2018 season with a tribute to one of the most successful musicians of all-time: Michael Jackson. The event is led by Milwaukee soul singer B~Free, who has recruited a huge team to help reinterpret Jackson’s songs, including Klassik, Arséne DeLay, Brian Dimetri, Cree Myles, Evan Lane, Jesse Weinberg, Jaleel Amir, Kyndal J., Lili K., Immortal Girlfriend, SistaStrings, Dailen Harris, Michaela Usher, Brit Nicole, WTCA, Cedric Gardner, Vee Adams, Christopher DeAngelo Gilbert and Jay Anderson.

Midwest Gaming Classic @ Wisconsin Center, 6 p.m.

If you’re one of those gamers who thinks new video games don’t have the same charm as the old classics, you’re in good company. Each year the Midwest Gaming Classic draws thousands of gamers to Milwaukee for one of the biggest gaming conventions in the country. This year the event moves to its largest venue yet, the Wisconsin Center, which it’ll fill with hundreds of arcade games and pinball machines, as well as home gaming consoles both new and old (ColecoVision anybody?). There will also be a gaming arena with air hockey, tabletop games, board games, tournaments, cosplay, vendors and a classic gaming museum. No need to bring quarters: All games are free with admission. Kids 9 and under get in free on Saturday and Sunday. Doors open both of those days a 10 a.m. (Through Sunday, April 15.)

Friday the 13th Fest IV: Jason Goes to Bay View @ Frank’s Power Plant, 9 p.m.

That’s right, it’s another Friday the 13th this month, and if you thought the horror obsessives at the Milwaukee Paranormal Conference were going to let it pass without a celebration, you have seriously underestimated the Milwaukee Paranormal Conference.

The fourth installment of the group’s Friday the 13th Fest will feature spooky music from Ratbatspider and the Dick Satan Trio, as well as burlesque performances from Skully Sati, Nina Nazir and Katie Kadaver. And if you’ve been looking for an excuse to catch up on those early Nightmare on Elm Street films, now you have one: There will also be ’80s horror movie trivia hosted by Deadgar Winter, of the local horror/comedy TV show “Deadgar’s Dark Coffin Classics.”

FRIDAY, APRIL 13 Mississippi Cactus @ Club Garibaldi, 8 p.m.

Bands reunite all the time these days, but it’s hard to think of a more dramatic comeback story than Mississippi Cactus. For almost two decades the boozy rock band played shows all over the city, until gradually burning out after a third album, 2012’s The Lost Album, that took far longer than any of them imagined to release. And then, a few years after that album, guitarist Mike Friedl suffered acute multiple system organ failure and went into a medical coma for nearly a month. Despite the bleak diagnosis, he survived, and after a hard-fought recovery where he learned how to walk again, he resumed playing guitar—his bandmates marvel that he’s better at it than ever now. The band’s revival begins with this show at Club Garibaldi, and will feature the group’s longtime producer Jeff Hamilton on bass. ! !

Milwaukee Day @ Multiple Venues

Not that Milwaukee needs an excuse to celebrate itself—city pride has been mighty high the last few years—but every April 14 (4-14, as in the 414 area code), the city comes together to cheer all things Milwaukee for its annual Milwaukee Day celebration. This year more than a dozen venues will mark the occasion with concerts and promotions. Highlights include shows at Company Brewing (featuring Tigernite, Midwest Death Rattle and Zed Kenzo), Cactus Club (a Lex Allen release show for his Table 7: Sinners & Saints LP featuring DJ DRiPSweat, Max Holiday and DJ Lotusmark), Boone & Crockett (which will celebrate the final weekend of its Bay View location with a show from Devil Met Contention and Paper Holland), and the Riverwest Public House, which is throwing a benefit concert featuring The MilBillies, Area Jazz Band and Lee’s Cash & Carry. There will be shows at Tonic Tavern, The Bottle and the Moon Room at Landmark Lanes. Meanwhile, Estabrook Park will host the Brew City Half Marathon and Discovery World will host the Milwaukee Makers Market. And for those looking to dress for the occasion, Too Much Rock for One Hand (207 E. Buffalo St.) will be selling special “414 Everyone” T-shirts.! !

SUNDAY, APRIL 15

Margo Price @ Turner Hall Ballroom, 8 p.m.

“A little pain never hurt anyone,” Margo Price sings on her second album of sweet, old-school country, All American Made, and she should know, because she’s experienced her share of pain.

Like Loretta Lynn and Tammy Wynette and the other country greats of yesteryear that she adores, Price draws from a deep well of personal tragedy, turning her losses into resilient, peppy tunes. It’s easy to see what Jack White saw in her when he signed her as the first country artist on his label Third Man Records. Price’s latest album also features a cameo from the legendary Willie Nelson on the track “Learning to Lose.”

The show will double as a birthday party for a 6 year old, so there will be cake, and kids 18 and under are welcome so long as they’re accompanied by a parent. Kids 16 and under get in free.

This rarely produced Shakespeare play is a fairytale adventure about a wandering prince. Colorful characters fill this joyous, delightful morality tale of family and the lessons we pass on.

MONDAY, APRIL 16 L7 w/ Death Valley Girls @ The Rave, 8 p.m.

One of the acts that helped spark the riot grrrl movement, L7 brought a distinctly political attitude to their blend of punk and grunge. Like many underground rock acts at the time, they found some fleeting success on alternative radio, thanks to their Butch Vig-produced 1992 album Bricks Are Heavy and its infectious hit “Pretend We’re Dead,” but by the turn of the century the band had faded away. In 2014 they announced their reunion, and last fall they released their first new song in 18 years, “Dispatch from Mar-aLago.” As you might have expected, this band has a lot to say about Donald Trump.

WEDNESDAY, APRIL 18

Adam Sandler w/ Rob Schneider @ The Riverside Theater, 8 p.m.

Few “Saturday Night Live” alums have ever gone on to find bigger box-office stardom than Adam Sandler, who’s starred in one hit comedy after the next while occasionally taking a stab at more serious roles in films like Punch Drunk Love and Funny People. Lately Sandler has directed most of his creative energies toward Netflix, which signed him to an enormous multi-film deal that’s worked out quite well for the streaming service (his films The Ridiculous 6, The Do-Over and Sandy Wexler have been some of the moststreamed ever on Netflix). This month Netflix will release his latest film with Chris Rock, The Week Of, but first Sandler will perform at these two shows in Milwaukee, which will be filmed for—yup, you guessed it—a Netflix special.

Doubt, a Parable

Things My Mother Taught Me

Secrets from the Wide Sky

“We are living in a culture of extreme advocacy, of confrontation, of judgment and of verdict,” writes John Patrick Shanley regarding his Pulitzer Prize- and Tony Awardwinning play, Doubt, a Parable. “Discussion has given way to debate; communication has become a contest of wills. Public talking has become obnoxious and insincere. Why? Maybe it’s because, deep down under the chatter, we have come to a place where we know that we don’t know…anything.”

It’s just this sort of highly relevant and topical material that drew Milwaukee Chamber Theatre director C. Michael Wright to Shanley’s play—set at a Catholic school in the Bronx, New York; a school that holds a terrible secret. “I find Shanley’s approach to especially difficult subject matter to be courageous, multi-layered and totally riveting,” Wright says, adding that it holds special relevance for him, personally. Wright wasn’t only raised Catholic, but was an altar boy in 1964—the very year in which Doubt, a Parable is set. This play contains mature content. (John Jahn) April 12-29 in the Broadway Theatre Center’s Cabot Theatre, 158 N. Broadway. For tickets, call 414-291-7800 or visit milwaukeechambertheatre.com.

Pericles, Prince of Tyre

Ask any number of people to name the first play by William Shakespeare that comes to mind, and zero will say Pericles, Prince of Tyre. One reason is that The Bard wrote so very many plays in general; secondly, the pedigree of this particular play is somewhat in doubt (it’s now commonly believed to have been written, at least in part, by Shakespeare); thirdly, well, it was just never one of his biggest hits. Which doesn’t mean it’s bad! In fact, viewing an unearthed gem, regardless of that gem’s comparative value, is still the alwaysrewarding task of making a fresh discovery.

Pericles, Prince of Tyre is a seldom-produced Jacobean play—a fairytale adventure, to be specific—about a prince fleeing a dangerous adversary and, by doing so, sailing from kingdom to kingdom finding adventure and romance along the way. Though not without its tragic moments, Pericles, Prince of Tyre fairly brims with intriguing characters as only Shakespeare can create and presents us with a still-relevant morality tale of family and life’s lessons worth passing on. (John Jahn) April 12-22 at Marquette University’s Helfaer Theatre, 523 N. 13th St. For tickets, visit showclix. com/event/pericles-prince-of-tyre.

22 | A P R I L 1 2 , 2 0 1 8

Katherine DiSavino’s touching comedy Things My Mother Taught Me is an intergenerational play about ordinary life and extraordinary love. At its center is a newlywed couple, Olivia and Gabe, who are settling into their first place together. To their shock, many friends and family members begin showing up at their two-bedroom apartment—with the best intentions, of course, in helping the young couple get their lives together smoothly launched. An element of the play with which we can all surely identify is the recognition of how parents are able to pass on their best lessons to their children without even intending to do so. This dinner theater production includes plated and, on certain play dates, buffet dinner options. April 13-22 at Memories Ballroom, 1077 Lake Drive, Port Washington. For tickets, call 262-284-6850 or visit memoriesballroom.com.

Darn Yankees

The game of baseball often serves as a metaphor for life, but for the Toledo Mud Hens, it’s a metaphor of pointlessness. The “Mudville 9” haven’t won a game in ages, but when they add an ace pitcher, things are about to start looking up. Darn Yankees is sure to be a hit with baseball fans, but holds relevance for us all. It’s a mixture of baseball lore and legends (Abner Doubleday, the Sultan of Swat, Mighty Casey and others make appearances). This Waukesha Civic Theatre production runs April 12-15 in the Margaret Brate Bryant Civic Theatre Building, 264 W. Main St., Waukesha. For tickets, call 262-547-0708 or visit waukeshacivictheatre.org.

Book of Days

Lanford Wilson (1937-2011) was an American playwright whom the New York Times once described as an “earthy realist greatly admired and performed.” His 2000 play, Book of Days, was his penultimate work in that genre. This UWMilwaukee Peck School of the Arts production, directed

by Raeleen McMillion, keeps rather faithfully to Wilson’s original script and setting. The latter is Dublin, Mo., where we find a woman portraying Joan of Arc in a community theater production who, shall we say, begins to take her role a bit too seriously. April 18-22 at the Kenilworth FiveO-Eight Theatre, 1925 E. Kenilworth Place. For tickets, call 414-229-4308 or visit uwm.edu/arts/box-office.

The Book of Moron

Robert Dubac’s one-man show and Off-Broadway hit, The Book of Moron, pulls no punches and holds nothing sacred as he maintains a scorched earth policy with regard to every subject under the Sun. Sex, race relations, religion, politics, the media; all these and more suffer gut punches from Dubac’s satirical wit. Things are very serious these days in Donald Trump’s deeply divided America; here’s an opportunity to learn to laugh at ourselves a little bit and remember how fallibly human we all are. April 13 and 14 at the Marcus Center’s Wilson Theater at Vogel Hall, 929 N. Water St. For tickets, call 414.273.7206 or visit marcuscenter.org/show/the-book-of-moron.

The women of Danceworks Performance Company and the intergenerational guest artists they’ve assembled for their new, original, evening-length dance-music-theater concert started the process by confiding, openly or anonymously, personal secrets they’d never told anyone. The show’s choreographer Dani Kuepper carried those secrets to her friend, the Minneapolis poet Jennifer Kohnhorst, who transformed the confessions into texts to be spoken by the dancers in performance. Each secret is shared, each individual source is protected. The choreography responds to specific secrets and the acts of revealing and receiving them.

Milwaukee composer/violinist Allen Russell, a master dance accompanist and multi-stylist who has created scores for Milwaukee Ballet and Danceworks and is a regular participant in the music-dance improvisations of Hyperlocal MKE, joined the development process to make a musical score for dancers who are also sometimes speaking. Russell will perform his score live.

“I realized that when you choose secrets as your subject, you create an almost ominous feeling,” Kuepper said. “So how to deal with that? First, let it go there. Let it be honest and real. You learn that we’re more the same than we are different. Some performers addressed shame. Their secrets made me think of things I’m ashamed of and helped me to forgive myself. Then how do you transfer that energy to the level of lighter secrets? Our teenaged performers helped me with that. My 40-something worries versus 15-year-old worries comes into play. I won’t reveal the punch line.” (John Schneider) Performances are April 14-15 and 19-21 at Danceworks Studio Theatre, 1661 N. Water St. For tickets, call 414-277-8480 ext. 6025 or visit danceworksmke.org.

CLASSICALMUSIC|MORE-TO-DO

Organist Jon Gillock

The Milwaukee Chapter of the American Guild of Organists hosts an appearance by one of the world’s most renowned interpreters of the music of Olivier Messiaen (1908-1992). Jon Gillock will perform a concert and give a master class on a 115-rank Schantz-built pipe organ. He’ll hold a pre-concert conversation at the Haggerty Museum of Art on Sunday, April 15, 1:30-2:30 p.m., with the concert at 3 p.m. at Church of the Gesu, 1145 W. Wisconsin Ave. Gillock’s masterclass will be held on Friday, April 14, 1-4 p.m., at Gesu as well. To attend either or both events, visit agomilwaukee.org or call 414-510-6276.

The Queen’s Six

Early Music Now hosts a sextet of vocalists—two each of countertenors, tenors and bass-baritones—called The Queen’s Six. Though they all live within the walls of Windsor Castle where they perform regularly for Great Britain’s royal family, the “queen” of their title is actually Queen Elizabeth I, who reigned 1558-1603. It is from her era that they get their concert program for “Sacred and Profane: Music of the Tudor and Jacobean Courts.” Featured British composers include William Byrd, Thomas Tallis and Orlando Gibbons. Saturday, April 14, in St. Joseph Chapel, 1501 S. Layton Blvd. For tickets, visit earlymusicnow.org.

Florentine After Dark

The Florentine Opera’s Studio Artists—Rachel Blaustein, Ashley Puenner, Edward Graves and Nathaniel Hill—present a concert of solo and ensemble cabaret songs from the U.S., France and Germany in a relaxed atmosphere. As with all such “Florentine After Dark” concert events, this takes place in the Milwaukee opera company’s Riverwest headquarters, not Uihlein Hall, where they put on their full-fledged opera productions. April 13 and 14 at the Wayne and Kristine Lueders Florentine Opera Center, 926 E. Burleigh St. For tickets, call 1-800-32-OPERA or visit florentineopera.org.

.

ilwaukee Day—taking place, inevitably, on April 14, i.e. 414—is a celebration of the city’s thriving culture through live music, museum activity and yoga at the Oriental. This year, Milwaukee Day coincides with the annual Kenilworth Open Studios (11 a.m.-3 p.m.), when students and faculty of UW-Milwaukee’s Peck School of the Arts invite the public to see and sample their work, much of which is explicitly geared toward creating a better Milwaukee.

According to Tate Bunker, senior lecturer in the UWM Film Department, Milwaukee is an endlessly fertile film set for aspiring and established filmmakers. Bunker moved to Milwaukee to undertake graduate studies at UWM (“one of the top 25 film programs in the world” he asserts) and found the entire city to be a filmmaker’s paradise: “There’s an amazing community that I’ve not seen in other cities.

Here I can crew up immediately and start working. And there are such great locations. If I want to shoot in a diner in New York City, it’ll cost $5,000. In Milwaukee they just hand you the key and ask how they can help.”

Concurrently with making his own films, Bunker assists the next generation of filmmakers in refining their vision and finding their voice. “My biggest class is ‘Zen and the Art of Filmmaking,’” he says, “which teaches Zen principles as methods of innovative filmmaking. I emphasize the idea of practice as a means of escaping ready-made ideas. This involves a lot of work, like finishing a film per week.”

Besides encouraging sheer quantity, Bunker presents his students with creative conundrums, designed to shake them free from habit and the anxiety of influence. “Our conscious self can be one of the biggest hindrances to doing original work, so my class explores automatic processes.

For instance, instead of starting with a script, we’ll use a process—pulling themes from a hat, throwing darts at a map, scouting locations before we have a story. Introducing chance forces us to innovate instead of imitate, to discover a film as opposed to creating it.”

During the Open Studios, Bunker and his cohort will be based in room 408, making a film in four hours. True to

24 | A P R I L 1 2 , 2 0 1 8

Bunker’s belief that relinquishing centralized control yields more interesting types of unity, the film will be, in the parlance of Surrealism, an “exquisite corpse”: “Without seeing each others’ work, four groups will make short films, which will be tied together to create the final film.” Bunker explains, “What creates continuity will be a set—which none of the groups will have seen before Milwaukee Day.” The finished film will be screened at the end of the Open Studios. Amid the flurry of production, half of room 408 will be a theater screening 10 of the best films from this semester.

And for those interested in the aesthetics of Zen filmmaking, students will be on hand to wax philosophical.

ECONOMICS AND CULTURE

Bunker and the burgeoning film scene bring both economic and cultural enrichment to Milwaukee. Other Peck School projects are differently geared toward engaging the community, especially its underserved and underrepresented groups. This is the mission of Kim Cosier, professor of art education and director of community engagement, Raoul Deal, senior lecturer in the department of visual art, and like-minded colleagues with the Kenilworth Gallery Community Engaged Arts Initiative. “The idea is that we support projects with the community instead of for the community,” Cosier says, “This initiative is a laboratory for imagining a better Milwaukee.”

The Initiative’s current project is a collaboration between the Community Engaged Arts program and Project Ujima, a violence-prevention program serving families and especially children whose lives have been affected by violent crime.

When complete, the collaboration will yield a 3-by-50-foot banner of 22 vinyl-cut portraits of the artists from Project Ujima and UWM. Each portrait is supplemented with snippets of text hinting at the inner life of its subject; mantras such as “my past does not define me” or watchwords like “victorious” and “legacy.”

“This project has been an opportunity to work together on a common cause,” says Jermaine Belcher, team lead with Project Ujima, “The UWM art students get to work with the community and our kids have a voice to talk about how vio-

lence has impacted their lives and how they’ve overcome it.

In reality, all of us are affected by this violence.”

Deal stresses the transformative potential of the project: “Community engagement projects introduce more diversity into the university environment and better reflect the demographics of Milwaukee. Our galleries have tended to emphasize art establishment artists, but I’m excited about projects that might lead Project Ujima kids to become artists. Can you imagine what that would do to the art establishment?!”

If Milwaukee Day celebrates the city as it is, the Kenilworth Open Studios imagines what Milwaukee could be. With more than 100 Peck School faculty members and graduate students, Kenilworth Open Studios holds many a promising vision for the future.

Offering a dozen diverse films—from Oscar winners to dramas and from comedies to family-oriented fare—Marcus Theatres invites you to not only see the films but also to partake in “a variety of cultural activities the whole family will enjoy,” says Marcus chairman, president and CEO Rolando Rodriguez.

The South Shore Cinema will host a Selena Celebration (that is, Selena Quintanilla-Pérez) in observation of the late ground-breaking singer’s birthday, featuring a Selena look-alike contest, salsa dancing from Danceworks and a screening of Jennifer Lopez’s 1997 feature film bio of the late phenom. And those are just some of day one’s events! (John Jahn) April 13-15 at various times and locations. For more information, call 844-363-2840 or visit marcustheatres.com.

Rampage PG-13

Warner Bros. laid the foundation for this adaptation of the video game when, in 2009, they paid $33 million for the rights to Midway Games. Here we meet Dwayne Johnson as primatologist Davis Okoye, having raised orphaned gorilla George to silverback maturity. Okoye is shocked to learn that George, along with a wolf and a crocodile, have been covertly subjected to genetic experimentation that causes the captive animals to grow both gigantic and overly aggressive. Breaking free, the creatures set about destroying Chicago. Determined to save George, the primatologist seeks an antidote while spewing the one-liners Johnson is known for. (Lisa Miller)

Sgt. Stubby: An American Hero PG

This World War I animated saga centers around Stubby, a stray dog joining the Connecticut National Guard’s infantry regiment as its mascot. The regiment (along with its bull terrier mutt) goes to France in 1917, fighting valiantly on the Western Front. The 102nd then goes to free Seicheprey, a French village overrun by the German Army. French soldier Gaston Baptiste (voiced by Gerard Depardieu) provides guidance and friendship to the regiment, which sustains high casualties. The regiment’s spirits are raised by loyal Stubby, whose exploits are revealed in letters written by Cpl. Robert Conroy (Logan Lerman) to his sister, Margaret (Helena Bonham Carter). A bloody war makes an odd animated film subject, but the story focuses on Stubby’s heroic acts. (L.M.)

Truth or Dare PG-13

A group of teen friends playing Truth or Dare find a grisly force stalking any player refusing his or her dare, or failing to tell the exact truth. The plot resembles Final Destination as, one by one, doomed players fall victim to bizarre, seemingly unavoidable, fatal accidents. An unintentionally goofy effect occurs moments prior to dying, when a player is afflicted by a distorted grin (reportedly based on Willem Dafoe’s toothy smile) and coal-black eyes. Laughable rather than frightening, the film’s Friday the 13th release date pleads for teen patronage, but Universal will find they’re too smart for this silly film. (L.M.)

[ HOME MOVIES / NOW STREAMING ] Faces Places

It’s a delightfully mapped out documentary of—for once—a happy story. Thirty-something guerilla muralist JR teams up with 80-something French New Wave filmmaker Agnès Varda; he’s a longtime fan and she discovered him in a photography book. Together they travel France in his wacky-painted van, visiting places tourists seldom see and producing photomurals of the inhabitants on the sides of buildings. Deservedly nominated at this year’s Oscars for Best Documentary, Faces Places is an affecting record of the power of art to touch lives.

“The Outer Limits: Season One”

Following in the wake of “Twilight Zone,”“The Outer Limits” (1963-1965) brought another dose of weirdness into the largely staid, predictable format of network television. The Blu-ray package of season one includes 32 hour-long episodes, many of them about science gone wrong, filmed in black and white with a varying cast that included Martin Landau and Robert Duvall. Although hurriedly shot and tightly budgeted, “The Outer Limits” often featured imaginative special effects when rendering its monsters.

Pastor Paul

Benjamin is a nerdy white visitor in Ghana seeking the mathematical laws governing rhythm. Lured into playing the ghost in a local film production of Hamlet, a Pentecostal spirit possesses him. And life only grows weirder as he persists in his journey. Directed and starring Jules David Bartkowski, Pastor Paul unfolds in a place where animism and Protestantism converge in a heated atmosphere of strangeness and is also a revealing travelogue of food, music and poverty.

Frank Serpico

In Serpico (1973), Al Pacino played a NYPD cop who exposed endemic corruption in his department. Antonio D’Ambrosio’s documentary introduces the real Frank Serpico: wiry, streetwise and looking very much like an aged Pacino.

Some facts of his life remain disputed—was his attempted murder a set-up?— but Serpico uncovered a system where corruption was the rule and honest law enforcement severely discouraged. Serpico’s story shows how whistleblowers allied with a free press can force change.

::BY JENNI HERRICK

ith One Shot is an engrossing psychological thriller that brings to life a half-century-old Wisconsin murder case.

Written by Waukesha native Dorothy Marcic, this true crime narrative features downhome Midwestern characters who are also Marcic’s own family members and friends.

Marcic, an accomplished academic, playwright and author who has taught at Vanderbilt and Columbia universities, was always fascinated by the 1970 murder of her uncle, a police detective and family man, but after the quick confession of his wife for the crime, Marcic assumed there was little question about the details of the case. In 2014, she started digging into the 1970 Oregon, Wis., murder and her extensive research has resulted in the voluminous detective story, With One Shot: Family Murder and a Search for Justice.

Marcic, whose other books include Understanding Management and Respect: Women and Popular Music, will speak at Books & Company in Oconomowoc at 7 p.m. on Thursday, April 12.

Dorothy Marcic

The Stupendous Adventures of Mighty Marty Hayes is a delightfully modern middle-grade reader written by Glendale author Lora Hyler.

This smartly written tale features a multicultural cast of young characters whose interest in science—as well as in becoming superheroes—will have broad appeal to young readers.

By mixing in tech-savvy spy gadgets and fascinating facts about American history, Hyler's debut novel blends important lessons with exciting adventure. The author is a former news journalist and current owner of Hyler Communications, a public relations and marketing firm founded in 2001.

She will appear at Boswell Book Co. at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday, April 12.

nown for his deadpan “Saturday Night Live” skits and comedies like Stripes, Meatballs and Groundhog Day, Bill Murray may seem like an odd performer to pair with a trio of classical musicians. But according to celebrated German cellist Jan Vogler, the actor has diverse interests.

Vogler, violinist Mira Wang and pianist Vanessa Perez will join Murray to perform “New Worlds,” a show which combines classic American literature, show tunes and dance numbers, on Tuesday, April 17, at the Riverside Theater.

The group began the tour in Philadelphia on Wednesday, April 4, and will perform “New Worlds” in 15 U.S. cities throughout the month, before taking the tour overseas in June. Vogler believes blending spoken word with show tunes, classical pieces by Maurice Ravel and Camille Saint-Saens, and songs by Van Morrison, George Gershwin and Stephen Foster, help spice up a traditional classical concert, which he feels can be boring.

“Bill and I are very much about surprise,” Vogler said. “There are so many elements in the show. It’s really a bridge between many genres, the best stuff written in Europe and America in the last 150 years.”

MUSIC::LISTINGS

::ALBUMS Barbara Stephan The River (FULL MOON PRODUCTIONS) Barbara Stephan has been kicking around between Milwaukee and Chicago for several years recording commercial music for Full Moon Productions and singing with the Eddie Butts Band and others around the city. For her solo debut, The River, she revisits the brassy exuberance and passion of 1960s and ’70s R&B. Though pitched as a throwback to Motown’s glory years, Stephan harks more to the contemporaneous run of influential soul music at Memphis’ Stax label, with its lesser concern for pop crossover and looserlimbed rhythmic intuition than much of what was laid down in Detroit back when.

Regardless of geographic and stylistic distinctions, Stephan utterly sells the EP’s half-dozen songs, imbuing them with conviction commensurate to Dusty Springfield or Sharon Jones. Stephan’s vocalizing is lighter in timber than those of the aforementioned divas, but still redolent of vintage soul’s gospel roots and more secular longings. It would be no far stretch to imagine The River receiving play on today’s adult R&B radio and, at the very least, being the basis for a fiery concert presentation.

Though Stephan has worked in a variety of styles, she could do far worse than to stick with what works so well for her here.

—Jamie Lee Rake

Miles Davis & John Coltrane The Final Tour: The Bootleg Series, Vol. 6 (COLUMBIA/LEGACY) It’s challenging when two great musicians on the front line of a band aren’t getting along, pulling away from each other musically. Perhaps that tension is audible during some moments of The Final Tour: The Bootleg Series, Vol. 6.

The 1960 recordings from European concert halls by Miles Davis’ quintet featured a tenor saxophonist, John Coltrane, impatient to get on with his own music. Coltrane was blowing hot circles—dense and fastplayed—around standards and compositions by Sonny Rollins, Thelonious Monk and Davis. Coltrane’s bristling sonics made an appealing contrast with the melancholy precision of Davis’ cool trumpet tones. The Final Tour documents not only Coltrane’s final outing with Davis but his last gigs as a sideman.

::FREEWILLASTROLOGY ::BY ROB BREZSNY ARIES (March 21-April 19): Aries statesman Thomas Jefferson was the third President of the United States. He wrote one of history’s most famous documents, the Declaration of Independence. He was an architect, violinist, inventor and linguist who spoke numerous languages, as well as a philosopher who was knowledgeable about mathematics, surveying and horticulture. But his most laudable success came in 1789, when he procured the French recipe for macaroni and cheese while living in France, and thereafter introduced the dish into American cuisine. JUST KIDDING! I’m making this little joke in the hope that it will encourage you to keep people focused on your most important qualities, and not get distracted by less essential parts of you.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): In the early 1990s, Australian electrical engineer John O’Sullivan toiled on a research project with a team of radio astronomers. Their goal was to find exploding mini-black holes in the distant voids of outer space. The quest failed. But in the process of doing their experiments, they developed technology that became a key component now used in WiFi. Your digital devices work so well in part because his frustrating misadventure led to a happy accident.

According to my reading of your astrological omens, Taurus, we may soon be able to make a comparable conclusion about events in your life.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): In the fictional world created by DC Comics, the superhero Superman has a secret identity as a modest journalist named Clark Kent. Or is it the other way around? Does the modest journalist Clark Kent have a secret identity as the superhero Superman? Only a few people realize the two of them are the same. I suspect there is an equally small number of allies who know who you really are beneath your “disguises,” Gemini. But upcoming astrological omens suggest that could change. Are you ready to reveal more about your true selves? Would you consider expanding the circle that is allowed to see and appreciate your full range and depth?

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Playwright Tennessee Williams once spent an evening trying to coax a depressed friend out of his depression. It inspired him to write a poem that began like this: “I want to infect you with the tremendous excitement of living, because I believe that you have the strength to bear it.” Now I address you with the same message, Cancerian. Judging from the astrological omens, I’m convinced you currently have more strength than ever before to bear the tremendous excitement of living. I hope this news will encourage you to potentize your ability to welcome and embrace the interesting puzzles that will come your way in the weeks ahead.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Are you finished dealing with spacious places and vast vistas and expansive longings? I hope not. I hope you will continue to explore big bold blooming schemes and wild free booming dreams until at least April 25. In my astrological opinion, you have a sacred duty to keep outstripping your previous efforts. You have a mandate to go further, deeper and braver as you break out of shrunken expectations and push beyond comfortable limitations. The unknown is still more inviting and fertile than you can imagine.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Between Dec. 5 and 9, 1952, London was beset with heavy fog blended with thick smog. Visibility was low. Traffic slowed and events were postponed. In a few places, people couldn’t see their own feet. According to some reports, blind people, who had a facility for moving around without the aid of sight, assisted pedestrians in making their way through the streets. I suspect that a metaphorically comparable phenomenon may soon arise in your sphere, Virgo.

Qualities that might customarily be regarded as liabilities could at least temporarily become assets.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Your allies are always important, but in the coming weeks they will be even more so. I suspect they will be your salvation, your deliverance and your treasure. So why not treat them like angels or celebrities or celebrity angels? Buy them ice cream and concert tickets and fun surprises. Tell them secrets about their beauty that no one has ever expressed before. Lis-

SHEPHERD EXPRESS

ten to them in ways that will awaken their dormant potentials. I bet that what you receive in return will inspire you to be a better ally to yourself.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): In the coming weeks, I suspect you will be able to find what you need in places that are seemingly devoid of what you need. You can locate the possible in the midst of what’s apparently impossible.

I further surmise that you will summon a rebellious resourcefulness akin to that of Scorpio writer Albert Camus, who said, “In the midst of hate, I found there was, within me, an invincible love. In the midst of tears, I found there was, within me, an invincible smile. In the midst of chaos, I found there was, within me, an invincible calm. No matter how hard the world pushes against me, within me, there’s something stronger—something better, pushing right back.”

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): In 1936, Herbert C. Brown graduated from the University of Chicago with a bachelor’s degree in science. His girlfriend Sarah Baylen rewarded him with the gift of a $2 book about the elements boron and silicon. Both he and she were quite poor; she couldn’t afford a more expensive gift. Brown didn’t read the book for a while, but once he did, he decided to make its subject the core of his own research project. Many years later, he won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his discoveries about the role of boron in organic chemistry. And it all began with that $2 book. I bring this story to your attention, Sagittarius, because I foresee you, too, stumbling upon a modest beginning that eventually yields breakthrough results.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): In 20 B.C., Rome’s most famous poet was Quintus Horatius Flaccus, known to us today as Horace. He prided himself on his meticulous craftsmanship, and advised other writers to be equally scrupulous. Once you compose a poem, he declared, you should put it aside for nine years before deciding whether to publish it. That’s the best way to get proper perspective on its worth. Personally, I think that’s too demanding, although I appreciate the power that can come from marshalling so much conscientiousness. And that brings me to a meditation on your current state, Capricorn. From what I can tell, you may be at risk of being too risk-averse; you could be on the verge of waiting too long and being too cautious. Please consider naming a not-too-distant release date.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Luckily, you have an inventive mind and an aptitude for experimentation. These will be key assets as you dream up creative ways to do the hard work ahead of you. Your labors may not come naturally, but I bet you’ll be surprised at how engaging they’ll become and how useful the rewards will be.

Here’s a tip on how to ensure you will cultivate the best possible attitude: Assume that you now have the power to change stale patterns that have previously been resistant to change.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): May I suggest that you get a lesson in holy gluttony from a Taurus? Or perhaps pick up some pointers in enlightened self-interest from a Scorpio? New potential resources are available, but you haven’t reeled them in with sufficient alacrity. Why? Why oh why oh why?! Maybe you should ask yourself whether you’re asking enough. Maybe you should give yourself permission to beam with majestic self-confidence. Picture this: Your posture is regal, your voice is authoritative, your sovereignty is radiant. You have identified precisely what it is you need and want, and you have formulated a pragmatic plan to get it.
