EDITOR IN CHIEF’S NOTE STAY HUMAN he following caught my eye recently: “Microsoft’s Vice President for Windows Web Services, Antoine Leblond, says that 2013 will be the year tablets outsell desktop PCs.” The statement was made during TechEd Europe in Amsterdam, and it was a stark reminder that our lives continue to change due to the rapid adoption of new technologies by human beings that are always hungry for the latest tablets, smartphones, and computers.

A word of caution: “Stay Human!” Remember that technology will never replace human interaction, even though it is flooding and overwhelming our lives with too many emails, text messages, and social media interactions. Many of us find ourselves spending an increasing amount of time every day reading our emails, text messages, and Facebook/Twitter messages and less time being human and interacting with people in person or over the phone.

The funny thing about this is that I remember when I conducted a lot of business in person and on the telephone, and I actually liked it a lot more than being glued to my computer, tablet or smartphone screen. Electronic communications are very impersonal and can sometimes be misinterpreted. When you meet with someone or speak to them on the phone you get to actually see their expressions and reactions and hear their voice. Those interactions provide you volumes of additional, valuable information when conducting a business transaction or having a personal conversation – something an email or text message will never do.

This weekend I was lying by the pool resting to get better from the terrible flu that had me sick in bed for almost a week, and I had the pleasure of chatting with my neighbor Rebekah, a very successful attorney at a major law firm in town. Rebekah loves to lay out every weekend and always has a stack of magazines with her. One of her magazines caught my eye. It was the issue of W with Tom Cruise on the cover as Stacee Jaxx in his Rock of Ages role. Rebekah was kind enough to let me have her copy of W so I could read it.

Besides the cover story about Tom Cruise, what really caught my attention was the “Editor’s Letter” by Stefano Tonchi, Editor in Chief of W titled Up Close and Personal. In it Stefano writes, “At a time when it’s becoming the norm for everyone to interact using digital networks – where identities are shaky and can be hidden or stolen – personal relationships are more important than ever.” He also points out that Lynn Hirschberg, W’s Editor at Large, “is a firm believer in talking to people face-to-face,” and that “having close connections with our editors is the reason the biggest names in Hollywood and in the fashion world do exceptional things for W.” I couldn’t agree more with Stefano. Thanks to Rebekah I am subscribing to W because I really like their content and layout, but I also believe wholeheartedly in the fact that personal interactions will always trump technology. If you want to be more successful in your business and personal interactions meet with people face-to-face, call them on the phone, hand write them a thank you note. You will be surprised by how much people appreciate that in this day and age. It will make you stand out in a world where people mistakenly rely on emails, texts, and social media over interpersonal social skills.

DINING

BY RAFA CARVAJAL

I LOVE THESE MEATBALLS! Images Credit: Hugo Lopez

n Monday I decided that my dining column this week should be about a good, hearty lunch place. I love Philly Cheesesteak, so Jesse, my Associate Publisher, and I set out to try the new MLT, Cheesesteaks and Grilled Cheese on Washington Avenue for lunch. Problem is – no MLT on Mondays. They are closed. Standing outside in the midday heat I remembered I had recently heard about a new place on Alton specializing in meatballs. After a quick Google search we were on our way to what proved to be a delicious choice for a hearty lunch at The Meatball Joint. We loved their meatballs!

ON THE GO TRAVEL: CHINA & HONG KONG

GO EAST, YOUNG MAN!

BY DANE STEELE GREEN

Up until I stepped into The Meatball Joint this past Monday, my favorite meatballs were – hands down – the ones served at Randazzo’s Little Italy in Coral Gables. Well, former Golden Gloves champ Marc Randazoo has a fight on his hands for the best meatballs in town. The menu at The Meatball Joint is straight to the point. You get to choose from four different meatballs: classic Italian (beef, pork, herbs & parmesan),

k, being in November it is a little far off, but considering we are talking Hong Kong Pride, it pays to get your plane tickets and hotel reservations early to a destination that is 1) expensive, and 2) so damn far away.

WAFFLE-CUT SWEET POTATO FRIES

GUAVA BREAD PUDDING

South Beach (turkey, herbs & parmesan – low fat & zero net carbs), West Hollywood (eggplant, herbs & parmesan – veggie), and the special ball of the day (ask your server).

You can have your balls solo with a choice of different tasty sauces and herb-garlic bread or mixed greens, in a baguette sandwich, in a slider, or as a “sammy” smashed on focaccia and grilled with a choice of sauce, mozzarella cheese and mixed greens.

The sauces include fire-roasted tomato marinara, fredo or drunken mushroom – all delectable. The Meatball Joint also has a broad selection of mouth-watering sides for only $4 each. I chose and loved the mac & cheese casserole. Some of your other choices include creamy roasted corn & grits, quinoa tabouleh, waffle-cut sweet potato fries, spaghetti, and cherry tomato, mozzarella balls & basil, and more. Yummy!

Besides having some very tasty balls, you can also enjoy a great selection of wines and some nice beers with your meal. Plus three luscious dessert choices for $5 each: apple pie, bread pudding, and ice cream sandwich. For an additional $2 you can add vanilla or chocolate ice cream to your pie or bread pudding, or a cookie to your ice cream sandwich – oatmeal raisin, chocolate chunk or macadamia white chip.

If you love meatballs, like I do, I would certainly recommend stopping by The Meatball Joint for lunch or dinner. Their balls were definitely delicious and made with high quality ingredients, plus their sides were a wonderful complement to a hearty meal.

If you stop by you may see me there because I am definitely planning to go back for more balls!

When it comes to Pride, much of the Far East is still getting its head around the idea.

Pride culture has been off and running for decades in a few places (Japan, Thailand, Taiwan), but others are still a little wet behind the ears, and China qualifies. But Hong Kong is a different animal: A British colony for 100 years before reverting to Chinese control in 1997, it is the most gleefully liberal corner of the Middle Kingdom, and if you want to experience a gay culture unique to its homeland without [a lot of] outside influence, there is no better place to start.

That “start” is on Hong Kong Island, site of the Pride Parade on November 10.

Starting in Victoria Park, it marches west along Hennessy Road, and ends at Chater Garden—which is a good thing because that’s Hong Kong’s gayborhood. Pregame at T:ME Bar (“time”), Zoo Bar (it’s next to the zoo) or Déjà Vu before heading off at clubs Volume BEAT and Propaganda for Asia’s best dance tracks and a little Eastmeets-West action (they can get kinky; you try being repressed for 5000 years and see how vanilla your fantasies are). Hong Kong is one of the most tightly-packed bundles of humanity on the planet, so be prepared for bars and clubs to be compact and to fill up fast. Land is so expensive that nothing can afford to get too expansive, it’s one of the reasons “HK” has so many skyscrapers; they build up instead of out.

In truth, gay establishments of all sorts speckle the city; there are a few around Victoria Park where the Pride Parade starts (Explode Bar and several saunas, such as the all-nude Action), and north across the Victoria Harbor on the mainland section of the territory (Tony’s Bar, the historic Wally Matt Bar). Some bars have gay nights and parties, like Faggatronic Saturdays at Peel. Confused? Pick up a copy of DS; it is to Hong Kong what Wire is to Miami—and it’s in English!

Go to www.hkpride.net/2012 for more information (note: it’s almost all in Chinese).

COVER STORY: THE DONKEY SHOW - MIAMI’S HOTTEST POP-UP DISCO

BY JAMES CUBBY Production Photo Shoot: The Donkey Show – June 26, 2012 Courtesy of the Adrienne Arsht Center/Photos by Justin Namon

elive the fabulous days of the disco era as The Donkey Show comes to Miami. Club Oberon, Miami’s first and only pop-up nightclub, will be created on the stage of the Ziff Ballet Opera House for The Donkey Show, an immersive theatrical experience complete with disco mirror balls and feathered divas, roller skaters and hustle queens. Created by Tony Award-Winning director Diane Paulus and Randy Weiner, The Donkey Show offers a unique opportunity to visit another era and become a part of a glittering nirvana where inhibitions don’t exist and everyone dances to the greatest hits of the ‘70s. “If Steve Rubell and Ian Schrager, creators of Studio 54, were alive today in Miami this is probably what they’d create,” says Scott Shiller –Executive Vice President of the Arsht Center and Producer of The Donkey Show Miami. For those who experienced disco, it’s a chance to relive those hedonistic days of the dazzling Studio 54 era, and for everyone else it’s a chance to step behind the velvet ropes of Miami’s hottest pop-up disco and interact with some of the show’s wild characters. The Donkey Show mixes a crazy circus of disco hits with a wild variety of characters and performers, all looking for love, in a show that’s inspired

by William Shakespeare’s classic comedy, A Midsummer Night’s Dream. “Just like in A Midsummer Night’s Dream, one of the characters is turned into a donkey and part of the story of the show is the quest to change him back,” adds Shiller.

COVER STORY: THE DONKEY SHOW - MIAMI’S HOTTEST POP-UP DISCO Miami’s version of The Donkey Show is the largest version of the show ever mounted,” says Scott Shiller. “I saw the show in Boston in 2009 and had such an incredible time I decided to bring it to Miami.” One of the props that the Arsht Center acquired for this show is a very large disco ball. “Now the Arsht Center owns the largest disco ball (6’6’’) in North America.” The creative team behind The Donkey Show includes the talented Allegra Libonati, resident director for The Donkey Show in Boston, who is responsible for re-imagining the show for Miami. The incredible nightclub lighting was created by Al Crawford and Zakaria M. Al-Alami of Chameleon Lighting Group. Rosie Herrera, a favorite of Miami audiences and a graduate of New World School of the Arts, returns to Miami to choreograph The Donkey Show.

Joining the nationally acclaimed creative team are twenty of Miami’s brightest young actors, dancers, singers and acrobats who tell the story of The Donkey Show and dazzle the audience with their talents. “The Donkey Show is a theatrical experience that immerses the audience in the world of Club Oberon and takes them on a roller-coaster journey of love, lust and revenge,” says Stephanie Chisholm, who plays Tytania, Oberon’s disco diva girlfriend and will captivate the crowd with thrilling displays of aerial art. “I rule the nightclub,” adds Stephanie. “A huge part of this show is audience participation and immersion in our Donkey Show world!

We have our story line, but without the audience the show is definitely incomplete. As we have been rehearsing there are some parts that are weird because the audience isn’t there! Things definitely change with a real audience, but it becomes whole and complete and a lot more fun for us too!”

Fans of the show So You Think You Can Dance may recognize Jimmy Alexander Arguello plays Cobweb, one of the fun-loving fairies in Club Oberon. “I project a sensual, Latin energy to the audience,” says Jimmy, who was named one of the top ten male dancers on So You Think You Can Dance in 2007. Like the other cast members, Jimmy raves about The Donkey Show experience. “The Donkey Show is bringing an era of funk and high energy music to the Latin culture and many of those who were born in that era can connect with the show emotionally. It’s quite fascinating to me. I am able to create a different fantasy with a different crowd every night. I can immerse an individual in a beautiful fantasy and take them back to a special place in their lives, with all these amazing songs. There are so many moments of The Donkey Show that I love. But my favorite moment of the show is a specific scene where all the fairies get to showcase their own strengths and unity. I call it The Fairy Power.”

“The Donkey Show is the ultimate night fever - crazy fun house enchanted by an ever-so-light sprinkling of Shakespearean magic,

COVER STORY: THE DONKEY SHOW - MIAMI’S HOTTEST POP-UP DISCO adds Jimmy. “The show reflects the mischief and magic of the comedy in a brilliant way.” Audiences visiting The Donkey Show will meet a fascinating group of characters in Club Oberon. Besides Tytania and Cob Web you’ll meet Leah Verier-Dunn as the infatuated lover Helen, deeply enamored with Dimitri. Then there’s Pepper, played by Inger Hanna, a girl-next-door type living her ultimate disco fantasy as hostess of Club Oberon. Rudi Goblen will get the Club Oberon crowd off their feet as Rudolph “Rudy” Valentino, the DJ at Club Oberon. Audiences will fall in love with Derick Pierson, an expert aerial pole artist, who plays Starshine, one of Tytania’s high-flying fairies.

The Donkey Show is unique in the fact that it’s different every night. Scott Shiller saw the show four times and says he had a different experience every time. “The most exciting part of performing in a show like this is that every night is different,” says Stephanie. “Although you have lines and blocking, there is so much free form movement because the audience changes everything about the show. As an actor you have to have your game face on because you never know what will happen, but it is much more fun that way. Our cast is very close and we know each person’s role.

We know where each person needs to be in order to tell the story. That way we can help each other get where we need to be, even if the audience is not cooperating at the moment.” Jimmy Alexander Arguello agrees. “It’s quite fascinating to me. I am able to create a different fantasy with a different crowd every night. I can immerse an individual in a beautiful fantasy and take them back to a special place in their lives, with all these amazing songs.”

“Miami is the only place you can see a show like this,” says Scott Shiller. During its run, Club Oberon will be Miami’s hottest pop-up nightclub.” The Donkey Show will

12 | wire magazine | issue #28, 2012 | www.wireweekly.com | facebook | twitter

be Miami’s chance to relive the disco era. “An era so popular because everything about it was fabulous,” says Stephanie. “It was taking life and pushing it into a place where glitter and sequins were normal, everyone loved to dance, and there was an enthusiasm for reaching for something new and going above and beyond what had been done before. We say the theme of this show is ‘go big or go home,’ but I think that embodies the disco era as well. Nothing was quiet and soft. Everything was bold and beautiful. The audience members even come in disco outfits, which is super fun.

I think it adds to the experience and the fun of the show.” For my final question for Stephanie I asked if she had ever been to a club like Club Oberon. “There is nothing like this club. Club Oberon is everything every club wished it was!” Jimmy, who plays Cob Web, wanted to add a final invitation to Miami audiences. “Come boogie with us and take yourself back to the ‘70s. Be prepared to feel joy, laughter, love and lots of fun! Come dressed to impress with your dancing shoes on, and look out for me, your Cob Web Fairy. I have glittered bronze shorts with two rainbow pads on my butt cheeks - Oh and bell bottomed disco attire below my knees.”

Adding to The Donkey Show experience, the Arsht Center has designated Thursdays as Drag Night with guest hosts like the infamous and lovely Elaine Lancaster who will host on Thursday, July 19. Scott Shiller says that this is the Arsht Center’s largest production and it’s guaranteed to be a hot nightclub experience with incredible drinks, great music, disco hits, and a fabulous floor show.” The Donkey Show runs at the Adrienne Arsht Center of Performing Arts July 13-August 12.

ven the best fitness plans can fail due to simple mistakes. So let me present my big Nos. Nine really big No-Nos that keep people from reaching their fitness goals: Personal pan pizzas. (What a marketing ploy this is) Take a look at the calorie count on these. Most of them run between 1,800 to 2,500 calories. For most people, this is an entire day’s allotment of calories. Pay attention to the calorie information that you see on food packages and at restaurants.

Three square meals. NO! Eat six small meals. Make each one nutritious, but don’t fill up. Track your food intake. You will be surprised at how much you consume each day.

Drinking colas. Liquor, obviously, is just empty calories. And sodas are not OK either. Say NO! Stay away from Big Gulps and other oversized soft drink choices.

Try sparkling water instead.

Staying up late. Sleep deprivation causes all kinds of problems. If you want to look and feel lousy, stay up late. If you want to decrease your level of performance at work (or in school), stay up late. But if you want your mind and body to be working properly, get your sleep. Get a DVR and record your favorite shows if they are on late.

Loading up on supplements. A supplementation program, intelligently devised, can provide great results to anyone seeking increased energy, better appearance, or better health. But just taking the latest hyped up stuff is a waste of money. Most of what’s on the market doesn’t do what the ads claim. Be selective. Less is more.

Total body workouts. For beginners, these are OK because the intensity is low.

But after a couple of months of training, this kind of workout has outlived its usefulness.

Low intensity “workouts.” (As moronic as the phrase military intelligence) About 90% of the people going to gyms are not getting results. Doubt that? Just look around at all the flabby bodies. Yet, some people seem to look better every time you run into them. Why the difference? In a word, intensity.

Overtraining. You can’t work the same muscle group in each workout. A properly worked muscle needs several days to recover (partly because you are using it lightly when working other muscle groups).

Focusing on isolation exercises. It will help you create the proper hormonal environment for muscular growth.

And I am going to include one more! “Obsessing over your physique.”

Please remember that your body will never be perfect. There will always be something for you to work on. Even if it were, who would really care? Keep things in perspective.

Train hard, eat right, sleep right--so that you are fit and healthy and able to do things that make life more enjoyable.

t’s not looking good for the All-American Guy, the kind of man who built bridges and highways, the kind of man Channing Tatum might have played had he been a star in the 1930s or 1950s.

This is a welcome change – it’s women taking their place in the world, it’s changing definitions and expectations of gender – but the persistent movement of manufacturing jobs overseas and the collapse of the construction industry, among other things, has hit many American men and their images of themselves like a hurricane.

Magic Mike surveys the wreckage.

of the business. Adam’s not too bright – he’s the kind of guy this sex, drug and rock-and-roll-fueled scene eats alive – but Mike has a good head on his very broad shoulders. And there’s something about Adam’s hard-headed, clear-eyed sister Brooke (Cody Horn) that he likes.

But hey, you’re asking, what about the sexy stuff? There’s plenty of that, and when Magic Mike’s characters are dancing, fighting, getting high or getting hot, the film is vivid, vibrant, hot. But the rest of their time, spent on dead-end day jobs, shiftless sex and thwarted ambitions, plays out in a dull, sunburnt haze.

Soderbergh gives Magic Mike its visual scheme and guides Tatum and Horn to compelling performances. And as Dallas, the alpha dog of the dance troupe, Matthew McConaughey is astonishing.

udging by the record-breaking heat and overflow of teeny-weenie bikinis on the beach I think it’s safe to say summertime is in full force. While some of you may spend the next few weekends sporting your new swimsuits across the sands of the 12th Street Beach runway, others may opt for a more tranquil way to cool off. If you’re one of those who prefer to tan quietly, you’re still going to need some new tunes to chill to while sipping on that margarita. Lucky for you, Johnnyswim has surfaced with some laid-back tracks perfect for cooling off to during these sweltering summer days.

Singer Amanda Sudano met songwriter Abner Ramirez in 2005 at their church in Nashville. Abner was professionally trained at Douglas Anderson School of the Arts in Jacksonville and Amanda was the youngest daughter of the legendary Queen of Disco, Donna Summer. Their divine connection quickly evolved into a musical partnership and Johnnyswim was born. Oddly they got their name from a scene in the classic thriller Jaws. A character is racing to get away from the killer Great White while his friends scream “Swim, Johnny! Swim!” Creepy? Maybe, a little. But the force created when these two artists came together was nothing less than lethal.

tracks rich with acoustic elements and orchestral backdrops. A year later, they collaborated with Amanda’s father, composer Bruce Sudano, on the track “Morning Song” which appears on Bruce’s album, Life and the Romantic. Daddy dearest also paid tribute to his little girl with the song “The Amazing Amanda Grace” inspired by Amanda and Abner’s wedding that same year. Yeah, sorry guys. Looks like we lost another one.

With the honeymoon behind them, the happy couple went back in the studio to produce their latest EP Home, Vol.1 boasting some of their most impressive work so far. These five new tracks find our newlyweds stretching their skills from soul to folk to blues. The crown jewel of this particular set is the lead track “Heartbeat.” With its racing baseline, complex chords and catchy hook I just couldn’t resist hitting repeat at least two or three times. Amanda’s soulful vocals, almost identical to her mom’s at times, ride effortlessly over Abner’s vivid lyrics painting aural images of passion and love.

If the pulsating beat of a Calvin Harris or Avicii track is more your speed, go ahead and skip this little well-kept secret.

But if you’re ready to slow things down this summer, jump onto www.johnnyswim.com and download 14 of the most Johnnyswim released their first self-titled sensual tracks you’ll never hear on the raEP in 2008 featuring five easy breezy dio --FREE! Margaritas not included.

he stereotypical notion that only gay men love show tunes can be put to rest with the world premiere of Real Men Sing Show Tunes and play with puppets, playing at Actors’ Playhouse at the Miracle Theatre. This musical comedy revue is a journey through different levels of manhood and the exploration of what does it mean to be a “Real Man.” Real Men… is an adult show with puppets that confront the issues that men face daily, explored with humor, silliness and pathos. Wire Magazine took the opportunity to chat with Paul Louis and Nick Santa Maria, co-authors and creators of Real Men… who are also two of the three actors in the show, and chat about real men and puppets.

It this a message show or just entertainment?

Paul: It’s both. Nick and I love to make people laugh, and especially, to make ourselves laugh. So although we do have a sweet and simple message to communicate in the show, we do it in a fun, and non-forced way.

What’s your definition of a “real man?”

Paul: One who is honest about who he is. I don’t care if you’re old, macho, meek, young, straight, gay, single or married. If you’re real about who you are, where you’ve been, and where you’re going, you are a “Real Man.” Since you’re starring in the show it would be interesting to know if you wrote your character with yourself in mind?

Nick: Since it’s a revue we play many characters, but we naturally wrote to our strengths. For instance, certain musical instruments are used in a couple of numbers, and of course we’ve written some segments featuring characters we’ve enjoyed doing over the years. The funny thing is that, despite having written the piece, Pauly and I decided to cast the third member of our trio (Steve Anthony) as our “main character.”

He does a terrific job, by the way.

What part do the puppets play in the show?

Paul: The puppets are in about 50% of the musical numbers, playing supporting characters, like the women in our lives, our kids, our mothers, characters from childhood, and even our pets. I guess they represent the playfulness of men, and how we are all just big kids who like to goof around and play.

Is there anything else that you’d like to share with Wire Magazine readers?

Paul: Our show is crude, edgy, adult humor, done with charm and good will, all presented with a unique twist. I think audiences for Real Men Sing Show Tunes and play with puppets, will be pleasantly surprised at the fact they will be equally as moved and touched by the sweet sincerity of the show, and the journey that these Real Men take.

Real Men Sing Show Tunes and play with puppets plays at the Actors’ Playhouse at the Miracle Theatre thru August 12. Actors’ Playhouse at the Miracle Theatre, 280 Miracle Mile, Coral Gables. www.actorsplayhouse.org or 305.444.9293

SHOPPING BAG CELEBRATING NATIONAL ICE CREAM MONTH GOLDEN OPULENCE SUNDAE What better way to celebrate National Ice Cream month than opulently. The Serendipity 3 in South Beach is notorious not only for its celebrity clientele, but for having the most expensive sundae in the world.

You’ll most certainly have to slowly savor this sundae covered in an edible 23-carat gold leaf, Tahitian vanilla ice cream infused with Madagascar vanilla beans, and rare Chua chocolate from Venezuela. Topped with drizzled Amedei Porcelana (one of the world’s most expensive chocolates), candied fruits, gold covered almonds, chocolate truffles, and marzipan cherries, this is a treat you’ll never forget - especially the bill. $1000.

1102 Lincoln Rd, Miami Beach.
