Asa Butterfield and Maisie Williams in Then Came You

SCREEN

Arya conquers Kingston Then Came You screens in Rhinebeck and Rosendale with director talkbacks

S

ad to say, one of the most genuinely fun movies to be filmed in the mid-Hudson Valley since we became a hot shooting location has not been getting full-scale theatrical release since its world premiere at last fall’s Woodstock Film Festival. So it behooves you to pay attention to the dates, times and locations where Then Came You is sporadically popping up. Those will include this Sunday, March 3 at 8:15 p.m. at Upstate Films in Rhinebeck and Tuesday, March 5 at 7:15 p.m. at the Rosendale Theatre. Both screenings will be followed by live question-and-answer sessions with director Peter Hutchings.

Game of Thrones fans, anxiously counting down the days to the final season premiere in April after a year’s hiatus, will be pleased to know that they can pass some of that time enjoying a new role for Maisie Williams, best-known as GoT fan-favorite teenaged assassin Arya Stark. In Then Came You she plays Skye, a fey, black-humored girl with terminal cancer who needs a sidekick to help her check things off her “To-Die List.” Her partner-in-crime – sometimes literally – is Calvin, a young man who works as a baggage handler at an airport and is too wound up in anxiety attacks and hypochondria to enjoy his life. He’s portrayed by another gifted young actor, Asa Butterfield, who played the leads in both Hugo and Ender’s Game. Calvin also has a crush on a flight attendant named Izzy (Nina Dobrev), but is terrified to talk to her.

If this scenario sounds like every other Young Adult novel out there in recent years, complete with dying protagonist, be advised that Then Came You has a significant narrative difference: Even though losing her virginity is one of the checkboxes on her list, Skye and Calvin aren’t destined for a tragic romantic relationship. Refreshingly, they become friends and remain so despite many tests, and it’s enough. A lot of what this movie is about is the power of platonic friendship.

Then Came You stands on its own merits for story and characterization, acting and pacing and cinematography; but local residents will be particularly enthralled by all the geographical Easter eggs packed inside. The airport scenes were shot in Albany, swimming pool scenes at Bard College, firehouse scenes at the FASNY Museum in Hudson. Locationwise, the biggest star is Kingston: The kids get tased and busted for shoplifting at Bop to Tottom, practice fencing at Academy Green, shoot craps on the sidewalk behind BSP, have a crucial quarrel on the Rondout waterfront promenade…and on and on.

If you spend any time hanging out in Kingston at all, I defy you to sit through this delightful movie without uttering frequent whoops of recognition.

Why is Highland actually named Lloyd?

In its next program, the Lloyd Historical Society answers the question: Why is the town commonly referred to as Highland actually named Lloyd?

Joan de Vries Kelley, head of the Archives Subcommittee at Historic Huguenot Street, will share the results of her research into the question on March 4 at Vineyard Commons.

This question has plagued local historians for decades. Kelley decided to take a fresh look at the puzzle. She researched county histories, government documents, censuses, land records, maps and newspapers. Her search uncovered several interesting facts about life in Highland when the town was formed almost 175 years ago, as well as a probable answer to the question.

of things to do every week

Leaving the house can be a wild ride...

At the time of European settlement, the Esopus Munsee people, northernmost tribe of the Lenape nation, occupied most of today’s Ulster County and parts of Orange County as well. Their territory included the Hudson shoreline from Saugerties south to Storm King (Pasquaskeck) and along the Minisink Trail (Route 209) from Kingston to the Basha Kill. Using maps and quotes, Pritchard will bring Mama Roch’s nation to life, then explore her life as well. After the respected female sachem’s lifetime, the era of the Esopus Munsee came to a tragic close, which Pritchard will reconstruct, blow by fatal blow.

A question-and-answer session and book-signing will follow the lecture.

Pritchard, of Mi’kmaq ancestry, is the author of Native New Yorkers, Henry Hudson and the Algonquins, No Word for Time, the newly self-published The Tappan: Keepers of the River Crossings and 40 other books. His talk will begin at 2 p.m. on Saturday, March 2 in the Community Room of the Saugerties Public Library, located at 91 Washington Avenue in Saugerties. To register or for more information, call (845) 246-4317.

Equis Gallery throws fifth anniversary party in Red Hook

Promenade by Morgan Cameron

The Equis Art Gallery on Market Street in Red Hook showcases contemporary, non-traditional artworks that reflect the primal fascination we have with horses: their grace, beauty and strength. Owned by equine fine art photographer (and Ex Arte Equinus competition director) Juliet Harrison, the brick-and-mortar gallery is also home base for an online gallery.

With international artists exhibiting here and customers from all over the world, Harrison is delighted to introduce local collectors and the general public to enjoy her passion.

But you needn’t be a “horse person” to appreciate the unique artistry displayed on the walls and shelves at Equis – a veritable plethora of equine paintings, sculpture, photographs and decorative gear. Gift items also include handmade jewelry, cards and other curios like copper reliquary boxes made by Rhinecliff metal artist Grace Gunning.

THOMAS COLE NATIONAL HISTORIC SITE

Emily Cole, Untitled, April, 1881, watercolor and pencil on paper

ART

Emily Cole exhibition opens in Catskill

E

mily Cole (1843-1913), daughter of Hudson River School luminary Thomas Cole, was one of those talented girls who had to hide her light under…well, not a bushel, but a bone china teacup. She made more than 100 watercolor paintings of botanical subjects in her lifetime, but gained more fame for her paintings on porcelain. A charter member of the New York Society of Ceramic Arts, Emily had her painted porcelain shown and collected in New York City; a contemporary newspaper review of one of those exhibitions called her work “unrivalled” for its “delicacy, purity of color and transparency.”

More than a century has passed since Emily Cole’s work has been featured in an exhibition, but the Thomas Cole National Historic Site is taking a step to rectify that neglect – fittingly, during Women’s History Month. “The Art of Emily Cole” will open on March 2 in the 1815 Main House, where both Thomas and Emily Cole lived and worked, and remain on view until July 7. Curated by Amanda Malmstrom from the Site’s collections, the exhibition will feature 12 original sets of painted porcelain works (circa 1900-10) and 13 pencil and watercolor works on paper (circa 1870-80s). Some of the works on paper will be presented in reproduction, due to the extreme light-sensitivity of the originals.

The exhibition’s opening month will feature a new guided tour, also developed by 2019 Cole fellow Malmstrom, titled “The Women of Cedar Grove.” The 45-minute custom tour will be offered on weekends in March at 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. Thomas Cole Site educators will lead guests through the 1815 Main House, bringing to light the stories of five women who called the property home: Thomas Cole’s wife Maria Bartow Cole (1813-1884), whose family owned the property; his sister Sarah Cole (1805-1857), also an accomplished artist; Thomas and Maria’s daughter Emily Cole, the only one of their children to become an artist; and their descendants Florence Cole Vincent (1876-1961) and Edith Cole Silberstein (1919-2016), later stewards of the property.

Tickets and information on hours, which vary by season, are available at www. thomascole.org.

International Women’s Day Parade to be held in New Paltz on March 9

New Paltz Women in Black presents a Parade for International Women’s Day on Main Street in New Paltz on Saturday, March 9. Women in Black join with other community and campus groups to celebrate the many advances women have won through struggle and to signal the hard work still needed to eliminate the remaining obstacles to full equality.

International Women’s Day is a day of solidarity for working women that is celebrated all over the world. It was originally inspired by strikes staged by women garment workers, many of them immigrants, in New York City more than 100 years ago.

The parade begins at 11 a.m. in front of the Elting Memorial Library at 93 Main Street in New Paltz and marches to Water Street Market at the western end of town, accompanied by the spirited sounds of the local activist brass band Tin Horn Uprising.

two in funds raised, Deahl adds.

The 2015 event registered 109 “shavees” and raised nearly $90,000, and in 2017 more than $108,000 was raised through 200 shavees. The goal this year, say the organizers, is “bigger and balder!”

Participants offering activities or donating goods to the event are growing each year, too, says Deahl. “People get wind of us, and then they get involved and jump right into our circle. Once you’re in it, it draws you back in to help.”

Pizza and hot dogs will be available for purchase, alongside a large bake sale with goods donated by home and professional bakers from throughout two counties. Divergent Coffee of Saugerties will sell coffee, with all proceeds donated to St. Baldrick’s. There will be a book donation table and a few tables of kids’ activities, including one sponsored by the Ben’s Builders LEGO Club, a group organized by a dad in honor of his young son who had cancer. The Moment of Magic Foundation will send volunteers who provide in-depth characterizations of superheroes and fantasy characters to amaze the kids, and a big raffle will offer the chance to win many items donated by local businesses from all over Ulster and Greene Counties. Raffle prizes include gift certificates to spas, fitness facilities and restaurants and other goodies such as four passes to Zoom Flume.

“When we began this, we were thinking we’d register maybe a dozen people to shave their heads and raise $1,000 or so,” says Deahl. “We had really low expectations of what we were capable of, though; we blew it out of the water. Now that we’ve realized the magic of what we have, we’re ready to bring it to the next level.”

Brave a shave St. Baldrick’s Day is back and it’s “bigger and balder” than ever

T

he year 2000 marked the first St. Baldrick’s Day event, held in a Manhattan pub on St. Patrick’s Day. A year prior, three friends and business colleagues – reinsurance professionals Tim Kenny, John Bender and Enda McDonnell – had challenged each other to give back to their communities in return for their good fortune in business. McDonnell’s thick head of hair inspired Bender to come up with an idea: Raise $17,000 on the next St. Patrick’s Day, March 17, by shaving 17 heads for donations to benefit the Children’s Oncology Group, a National Cancer Institute project devoted to research on childhood cancers.

To say that the plan worked is an understatement. The trio raised more than $100,000 at that first head-shaving fundraiser, and repeat events brought in $1 million by 2002. The nonprofit St. Baldrick’s Foundation was established in 2004 to maximize the volunteer-driven effort, and since then, communities across the country have organized under the foundation’s banner to put on headshaving events in their own towns to raise funds for childhood cancer research.

Saugerties has hosted a biennial event since 2015. The Ulster/Greene County St. Baldrick’s Day event this year will be held on Sunday, March 3 from 11 a.m. to

4 p.m. inside the joined cafeterias at the Saugerties Junior/Senior High School, located at 310 Washington Avenue Extension.

The purpose of the fundraiser is a serious one, but there’s plenty of fun on tap for attendees, who are encouraged to wear green and gold: green for obvious St. Patrick’s Day associations and gold as the color of ribbon that represents childhood cancers. The Hudson Valley Youth Chorus will open the event at 11 a.m. after the event’s honorees arrive: a group of children who are fighting childhood cancers. (They’re driven around town first in a donated vehicle and then brought into the event “celebrity-style.”)

Volunteers from Face Painting by Crystal and About Face will be on hand to embellish little faces all day, and Saugerties-based licensed massage therapists Sakinah Irizarry and Aubrey Zambrella will give free chair massages.

The Kingston-based Energy Dance

Company will perform at 1 p.m.; and at 3 p.m., Celtic Heels Irish step dancers will also entertain.

The main draw, however, will be the head-shaving, done by licensed stylists and barbers from local salons and barber shops who volunteer their services. “It’s really quite the sight,” says event co-host Arlene Deahl. “We wind up with stacks of tissue boxes all around the room. There’s nothing like watching the people who do this: the firefighters, or teachers and students, or a bunch of women who get together to do this as a team, together. It brings you to tears so many times during the day.”

Childhood cancers are shockingly common. According to the national St. Baldrick’s Foundation, a child is diagnosed with cancer every two minutes in the US, yet less than four percent of the National Cancer Institute’s budget is directed to childhood cancer research.

The first St. Baldrick’s event in Saugerties was organized by a group of five or six moms, led by Gloria Darmanin,

says Deahl, who calls her colleague “a powerhouse of good energy.” The two are co-hosts this year. They’re pleased to have a larger space for this year’s event, which is on track to surpass both of the previous

UPSTATE FILMS WOODSTOCK SCREENS JONI MITCHELL BIRTHDAY FILM THIS SATURDAY

W

hen Joni Mitchell turned 75, her literal hordes of indebted admirers and peers, famous in their own right, showed up to pay tribute to her astounding musical and cultural achievements. The list of well-wishers was long and star-studded, including the likes of Brandi Carlile, Emmylou Harris, Norah Jones, Chaka Khan, Graham Nash, James Taylor, Rufus Wainwright and many others. The lavish and visually rich birthday celebration took place in the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion in downtown Los Angeles, with movie stars as well as musical artists on hand.

Though the artists onstage performed Mitchell covers – as photographs of her throughout her career and her colorful paintings filled a screen behind them – there was one moving exception: Graham Nash, the singer/songwriter who dated and lived with Mitchell in Laurel Canyon, sat down at the piano and performed “Our House,” the song he had written about Mitchell and their happy home life some 50 years earlier. “You put the flowers in the vase that you bought today / Staring at the fire for hours and hours while I listen to you / Play your love songs all night long for me, only for me.” Mitchell, who had a red flower tucked behind one ear, sang along from the audience for the first and only time that evening.

The whole affair was captured on film, and the resulting music spectacular, Joni 75: A Birthday Celebration, comes to Upstate Films in Woodstock on Saturday, March 2 at 2 p.m.

Family-friendly Mardi Gras party this Sunday in New Paltz The Elting Memorial Library gets in on the Mardi Gras action with a seasonal celebration that is free and open to the public. This Mardi Gras party features live music with the Bernstein Bard Bon Temps Band, Cajun dancing, a sampling of traditional New Orleans food, children’s activities and a

band; and the 21st century has seen a pronounced trend toward playing local, even among heavy cats like these.

But this one is a bit of surprise: When Levin and Marotta perform at the Bearsville Theater on Thursday, February 28, they are joined by the legendary guitarist Phil Keaggy.

Keaggy’s 50-year career defies easy explanation. He began as a startlingly articulate shredder with the Ohio power trio Glass Harp, but he became most famous for a distinctively glistening and virtuosic fingerstyle acoustic playing, as well as a legacy as a songwriter and recording artist that straddles Christian and secular markets (no small feat; in fact, pretty close to unique). Who knows what these three will sound like? The possibilities are fascinating. Tickets cost $25 in advance.

Colony in Woodstock continues its series of focused single-artist tributes on March 7 with a multi-performer celebration of the songs of Townes Van Zandt. In the years since his passing in 2007, the Texas troubadour’s legacy has transitioned fully from cult hero and cognoscenti favorite to major influence and a canonical fixture in American roots music.

Organized by songwriter Eric Quindo (Mister Roper, the Uncommon Gestures), the tribute takes its title from Van Zandt’s most beloved and oft-covered song, “If I Needed You.” Scheduled performers include Squindo, Kyle Esposito, Marc Delgado, Matt Witte, Laura Stevenson, Mister Roper, Satin Nickel, Jim from Kansas, Faith Loren, Collin Couvillion, the Uncommon Gestures and more.

Tickets cost $10 in advance, $12 on the day of the show. Proceeds will benefit the And-Hof Animal Sanctuary in Catskill.

Jon Pousette-Dart’s voice as a songwriter comes solidly from the singer/songwriter milieu of the ’70s, sharing equally in the period’s defining traits: opulent, soft-rock melody; personal subject matter; a touch of slick groove and slick playing; and more than a passing familiarity with roots and folk traditions. The Pousette-Dart Band left its mark in a series of moderately successful records of the period, yielding the radio hit “Amnesia” and several other notable singles. Jon Pousette-Dart himself continued to a prolific and consistent solo career.

“WE WANT THEM TO COME WHENEVER THEY CAN, whenever their schedules allow. We’re expanding to Hudson in 2019 and just got approval in East Chester for a 24/7 there.”

Meaty matters Applestone Meat Company eyes expansion in Stone Ridge

A

n update on what’s happening at the Applestone Meat Company in Stone Ridge is always warranted, because there’s always something new or something in the wings waiting to take the stage. (We’re dying to know about the renovation of the property and the building next door, but we’ll be patient.)

Just driving by or wandering through the store makes you want to buy a chunk of meat and rush home to cook.

But speaking of wings, the 24/7-open retail dispensary of freshly butchered grass-fed-and-finished beef, pork and lamb now offers certified organic chicken from Bell & Evans. It’s a convenience for shoppers and a value-added option for anyone who wants to please everyone at their table in one shopping stop.

type of sourcing practices and procedures for processing as we believe in,” says Josh Applestone, “they also have a state-of-theart facility, and they use air-chilling rather than water-chilling, which is a much safer way of processing chicken.”

Applestone reports on a flurry of developments as well as the success of his innovative 24/7 meat-dispensing machines. “Part of what we’ve been seeing, with Stone Ridge being this proof-ofconcept, is how many people come in and want to talk to you, and how many come in and start using the machines right away,” he says. “Over time, people don’t need to chat as much. They don’t need direction or explanation; they are used to the system.

And it’s growing. Sales are up 40 percent over last year. It’s working.

“We want them to come whenever they can, whenever their schedules allow. We’re expanding to Hudson in 2019 and just got approval in East Chester for a 24/7 there.”

The customer-service window is open for a certain part of the day for anyone who does have questions about how to use the machines or how to cook a cut of meat.

This is also where frozen meats are stocked.

Open 7 days from noon.

“We cut daily, and freeze meats after a very short amount of time. The freezer sales really drive the customer-service window, because of the good variety of frozen products that we sell for 20 percent off. A lot of people buy in bulk and freeze anyway, so it makes sense. It’s very convenient. Frozen is a great way to preserve fresh meat, and it’s easier for a retail establishment to offer both and move both products evenly. Not only are we satisfying a need in the community, but it’s a need for a successful local business model.”

When asked about keeping up with the growing demand, Applestone says, “We’re opening up other farmers – a lot more pig farmers coming online by the spring; by the summer we’ll have more beef farmers.

We’re always expanding and working with local farmers to get more products in, and more variety. Part of the ability to do that is we’re opening more stores, so our demand is much more. I do farm business a couple times a month just to keep up with

the farmers and what’s coming out. New farmers always want to talk to me. It’s great – gets me out from behind the desk.”

Applestone is not doing wholesale these days. “I like restaurants and miss having relationships with restaurants. It’s just a matter of time and space. We work with farmers who usually have extra...

Farming is unbelievably tough. Part of the relationship you build with a farmer is trust: knowing that they’re going to raise what you want the way you need it, because you can’t be out there constantly watching them. And they’re going to trust that you’re going to pay ’em cash, and pay them quickly. It’s not like they have a bank of resources. It takes years to build these relationships and understand how you can help them and not waste their time.

“When I started Fleischer’s, this was an education. I had people helping me understand farmers more. It didn’t take much time to understand the perils that farmers face. We hear about big snows and how cattle starve because they can’t

NIGHT SKY

The end of the world is coming

T

hanks to a big op/ed review in the Wall Street Journal, a segment last weekend on NPR’s Weekend Edition and other kind reviews like the one in this newspaper, my new book Earth-Shattering is getting some nice attention.

While much of the book explores historical cataclysms that have befallen our planet and our solar system, the final section looks at our future.

Actual global cataclysms have been thankfully rare. But widespread fears about supposed upcoming Armageddons make the rounds every decade or so. th We don’t have to think back too far to remember the End of Days that was supposed to unfold thanks to the Mayan calendar. Hollywood didn’t want to miss out on that one, so they created the movie 2012, starring John Cusack. Its special effects were fabulous.

Before that, there was a lesser-known Armageddon scare that was popular in places like Woodstock, caused by the planets lining up on May 5, 2000. Going back a bit further, we probably all recall the Y2K Menace, when airliners were supposed to fall out of the sky thanks to faulty computer code. And before that we had the fears associated with incoming comet Hale Bopp, which resulted in the tragic Heaven’s Gate mass suicide of 39 people in 1997. They thought a spaceship was arriving right behind the comet. And, earlier, the 1982 “Jupiter Effect” when a planet alignment would supposedly make California drop into the sea.

A clear pattern becomes apparent: First, a major upcoming astronomical event gains public awareness. Then someone writes a book, article or (these days) a blog post claiming that the impending sky-event was prophesied by Nostradamus, Bible verses or an early civilization specifically to foretell the end of the world. The combination of the actual celestial event and the purported ancient prophecy is what does the trick, and fear sweeps the world – especially in New Age circles and places like our beloved Woodstock.

In Earth-Shattering, a late chapter explores likely future celestial events that will produce end-of-the-world fever. We don’t have long to wait.

I believe the first will happen next year: on December 21, 2020. That’s when the sky

get feed to them. It’s a tough business. The places I go are more northern and western New York, where it’s really cold with a lot of snow. There’s constant work to be done.”

Applestone has closed the small processing plant in Accord, but will be opening a much-bigger plant less than a mile down the road by the summer. The company currently employs around 30 people in Stone Ridge. Before I leave, I ask whether my order of oxtail is in. Not yet, it seems.

“We sell out of oxtail all the time. There’s only one per animal, you know,” says Applestone. So get your name on the list before the season of rich, steaming oxtail soup becomes a memory.

will produce its most dramatic planet conjunction of our lives. Jupiter will meet Saturn so closely that the two will combine into a single brilliant “star” (at least for those who missed their last eye exam). That this happens right on the day of the Solstice will, like the Mayan Solstice affair of 2012, generate a lot of attention. It will actually be an amazing sight through backyard telescopes just after sunset on December 21. The two worlds will hover together in the same telescope field!

The next Armageddon scare after that, I predict, will be the 2027 “Darkness over the Holy Land.” Get this: The longest total solar eclipse for the remainder of the century will happen right over the Pyramids on August 2. If that doesn’t bring out the prophecies and the crazies, nothing will.

The next Armageddon – and you can take this one to the bank – will be an amazingly close call from an asteroid in 2029. On Friday, April 13 (yes, Friday the 13th!), the asteroid Apophis will just barely miss us. It will come as close as our own orbiting TV satellites: near enough to glide visibly across the sky, as seen by the naked eye. Just spectacular.

But in the days and weeks leading up to it, the paranoid among us will believe that an Earth-shattering collision will indeed happen, but is being kept secret by the government.

That’s enough for now, my friends. Buy the book.

KIESE LAYMON TO READ FROM HEAVY AT MURRAY’S IN TIVOLI

O

blong Books & Music presents author Kiese Laymon reading from Heavy: An American Memoir, winner of the 2019 Andrew Carnegie Medal for Nonfiction, on Thursday, March 7 at Murray’s in Tivoli. Laymon writes eloquently and honestly about growing up a hard-headed black son to a complicated and brilliant black mother in Jackson, Mississippi. Heavy is a “gorgeous, gutting…generous” (The New York Times) memoir that combines personal stories with piercing intellect to reflect both on the strife of American society and on Laymon’s experiences with abuse. By attempting to name secrets and lies that he and his mother spent a lifetime avoiding, he asks us to confront the terrifying possibility that few in this nation actually know how to love responsibly, and even fewer want to live under the weight of actually becoming free.

Tickets cost $17, which includes a paperback copy of Heavy.

of his Lego characters, and occasionally invades Finn’s layouts with her Duplo and Lego Friends toys. These are perceived as destructive aliens by nerdy EveryLego hero Emmett (Chris Pratt), his Goth girlfriend Lucy/Wyldstyle (Elizabeth Banks) and the rest of the core crew: Batman (Will Arnett), Metalbeard the pirate (Nick Offerman), Princess Unikitty (Alison Brie) and spaceman Benny (Charlie Day).

Narratively, this sibling rivalry gives rise to a convoluted intergalactic chase beyond the Stairgate (which is to say, out of the basement where Finn builds his layouts), during which Emmett tries to rescue kidnapped friends – notably Batman, who is being forced to marry the shapeshifting alien queen of the Systar System, Watevra Wa’Nabi. En route, Emmett encounters his more macho alter ego, the Han Soloesque space raider Rex Dangervest (also voiced by Pratt), who tries to toughen him up for the fray.

Where this fails to hang together is in the effort to combine the differently scaled universes of Legos, Duplos and Bianca’s crafts projects (glitter is copiously used here) into a coherent animation aesthetic.

Much of the joy in the first Lego Movie derived from the extraordinary creativity that went into designing a world that seemed to live and breathe despite being made out of tiny bricks, everywhere you looked. In Lego Movie 2, we have mostly-Lego characters moving through environments that are made partially of Legos and largely of other things. The miraculous problem-embracing approach of the original is lost, replaced by a pastedtogether cosmos. The kids in the audience probably won’t mind, but I did.

largely in the form of cameo appearances from other pop-culture universes. Emmett can’t use ductwork to infiltrate a building without running into Bruce Willis climbing in the opposite direction, for example. There are recurring appearances from a sparkly vampire, and a oneoff from none other than Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who is reportedly now set to get her own Lego figure. I might actually break down and buy that one. As for the movie itself: I would have been happy to bid farewell to this franchise after its first outing. Sometimes sequels serve only to dilute the pleasure of a good concept.

has been on our cultural radar rather a lot of late. You may know her originally as the author of The Orchid Thief, but most recently she’s been stumping for her highly praised latest work, The Library Book, which focuses on an inquiry into a catastrophic fire of suspicious origin that devastated the Los Angeles Public Library in 1986, then muses in depth on the role of libraries and librarians in our lives.

The premise of Crybabies is that most people have certain things that reliably make them cry, and that some of those triggers are surprising, and that what

people have to say about why that happens for them can be most interesting and relatable. Thyre and Orlean particularly like to invite interviewees who are known for being funny, and plenty of big-name comedy people have responded to their call.

Sometimes the hosts as well as the guests end up weeping on-air – even when the tear-inducing event shared is something as silly as a TV commercial.

(The 1960s Kodak ad about a daughter growing up to the tune of “Turn Around” definitely did it for me, and odds are good that you’ve got one such embarrassing memory as well.) Movies are especially powerful wellsprings of cathartic tears.

“If you can make it through the opening montage of Up without crying, you’re probably a psychopath,” Orlean told The Guardian in 2015.

Despite an announcement nearly a year ago that the series was in its final season, Crybabies seems to be enjoying a new lease on life in the form of a recording tour. Orlean and Thyre will visit the Fisher Center at Bard this Saturday, March 2 at

orldwide manifestations of dance are a prime preoccupation of the Vanaver Caravan, so each year the Rosendale-based troupe stages a festival that puts many different styles of dance on display, while putting a variety of regional ensembles through their paces. Now in its 27th year, DanceFest resurfaces on Saturday, March 2 at Rondout Valley High School.

The host company’s junior divisions, the Vanaver Caravan Youth Company and Caravan Kids Project, will set a sprightly mood with For Pete’s Sake, a medley of Pete Seeger tunes in honor of what would have been the folk legend’s hundredth birthday, coming up on May 3. Especially notable among this year’s DanceFest offerings will be the first-ever participation by a Chinese classical dance company, from Feitian College of Middletown. Another highlight: The Barefoot Dance Company will debut Trans-Mission, a piece created by guest choreographer Souleymane “Solo” Badolo that juxtaposes traditional dance from his native Burkina Faso with contemporary Western dance forms.

Also on the program are works in classical, modern and jazz styles by American Youth Ballet, Ballet Arts Studio, the Dutchess Dance Company, the D’Amby Project, Dream Studio Dance and Movement, the Veritas Dance Company, the Dutchess School of Performing Arts, Hudson River Performing Arts, New Paltz Ballet Theatre, the New York Academy of Ballet and the Saugerties Ballet Center. There will be two shows, beginning at 3:30 and 7 p.m. on Saturday, March 2. The snow date is Sunday, March 3.

Tickets cost $18 general admission, $12 for seniors and children aged 12 and under. They can be purchased at the door or online at https://vanavercaravan.org/dancefest. Proceeds from DanceFest benefit the Vanaver Caravan’s Arts Education programs in Ulster County and surrounding areas. Rondout Valley High School is located at 122 Kyserike Road in Accord.
