A native of Philadelphia, Buddy Fitzpatrick is currently a NYC club Favorite. His act combines the skill of a great monologist with a physical style that brings his observations to life. At the age of 18, he left Phili and enrolled in the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in New York City and has never looked back. He went on tour with several theater companies starring in plays ranging from Shakespeare to Neil Simon. His comedy timing was always a bright spot in any production and with a little prodding, he took the next step to the comedy club stage. Soon after, Buddy was a regular at all the prominent showcase clubs in New York City honing his craft night after night. His act is made up of inventive material delivered in a self-assured style. Buddy's stand-up made him a regular on Comedy Central with appearances on ABC and A&E. Buddy can be seen in the Damon Wayans' film "Harlem Aria" and in "The Business of Strangers" starring Julia Stiles and Stockard Channing. His television credits include HBO's "Sopranos." Buddy has written, produced and performed his biographical play "Sides" at various NYC Theatres.

Celebrity Personal Chef and Grilling Expert Glenn Lyman to Present at Mrs. G TV and Appliances 75th Anniversary Celebration Sept. 25

by Hilary Morris
(Princeton, NJ)


Lawrenceville, NJ—Rising culinary star and personal chef to high-profile NBA athletes Glenn Lyman will share his culinary expertise on Saturday, September 25 as part of the Mrs. G TV & Appliances 75th Anniversary Celebration. His presentation will focus on Grilling Best Practices and Easy Recipes.

A native to Cleveland, Ohio, Lyman gained his notoriety as personal chef to LeBron James of the NBA Cleveland Cavaliers. When it comes to meals, he is the “go-to-guy” for members of the NBA and NFL where he does more than plan menus. He customizes meals to match nutritional needs of the athletes on regimented diets.

“We are delighted to host Chef Lyman in our store," said Debbie Schaeffer, president of Mrs. G TV & Appliances. "He is a self-taught cook and an expert when it comes to grilling and barbecue. He is passionate about using fresh, local ingredients and he loves to entertain!”

Chef Lyman will be cooking from 10am-4pm, showcasing 4 different recipes prepared on a Lynx Professional Grill.

In addition to grilling, Glenn's specialties include a variety of dishes, particularly home-style—just like Mom––highly nutritious meals.

“I think families in our community will really relate to Lyman,” Schaeffer added. “As a family man himself, his philosophy of cooking supports the idea of family dinners as a time not only to enjoy a healthy nutritious meal, but also as quality time for families to be together.”

Lyman will also be joined by 2 local culinary talents. Chef Matt Sytsema of Griggstown Farm, will lead a demonstration in preparing an easy and healthy turkey for the holidays, and Ruthie Bzdewka, owner of House of Cupcakes in Princeton, will feed attendees' sweet tooth with a cupcake lesson.
In addition to Lyman’s special guest appearance, the 75th anniversary celebration also includes seminars on:

7 Simple Changes That Can Finally Get You The Body You Want: presented by Michele Banks, certified nutritionist and Lindsay Vastola, certified fitness professional
De-Clutter Your Space, De-Clutter Your Life: presented by Natural Order’s Ellen Tozzi, professional organizer.
How To Be Unstoppable: presented by Ed Tseng, Award-Winning Coach, Peak Performance Expert, Author & Speaker, Pro of the Year USTA 2005
Latest Trends in Fashion and Style (featuring cost and time-saving tips): presented by Denise H. Frederickson, Fashion Forward Image Consulting, LLC.
Laundry Toolkit: presented by Lucinda Ottusch, Consumer Advocate
Savoring the Moment and Making Life Easier: presented by Joanna O'Neill, MA, LPC, NCC
All attendees will be automatically entered for the chance to win 1 of 10 door prizes valued from $199 to $4,000 and will receive gift bags stuffed with valuable items and gift cards. Other highlights of the event include massages, makeovers and refreshments.
“Plus everything will be on sale,” said Schaeffer. “If you’ve been waiting to buy that appliance, grill or TV, now is the time to visit our store. These prices will be the best prices of the year!”

Joe DeRosa @ The Comedy Cove

Joe DeRosa @ The Comedy Cove

Joe DeRosa is probably the world's youngest cynic! His contempt for pop-culture and the phony people it idolizes is refreshingly honest, and uproariously funny. Joe started stand-up comedy by hitting the open mics at the Laff House in Philadelphia, PA. Within a year, he was a regular there and at all the major clubs in the area. It was not long before Joe made the jump to New York City to take up comedy as a full time gig. He quickly began working at New York venues such as Caroline's, Stand-up New York, the Laugh Factory, and Gotham. Soon came appearances on "Last Call with Carson Daly," Comedy Central's "Premium Blend, " and the New Faces showcase at the Montreal Comedy Festival. In addition, he's performed on national tours such as Dave Chappelle's "Block Party Tour" and the "Insomniac Tour" with Dave Attell. Joe continues to perform constantly, making television appearances and headlining clubs around the country.

Joe's Star is on the rise, so don't miss him at THE COMEDY COVE this weekend along with feature GINA BRILLON and emcee JASON POLLACK.

KEITH  ANTHONY!

KEITH ANTHONY!

Newsday called Keith Anthony "one of the best comedic talents to come out of Long Island". This truly original comic offers a point of view that is alternative yet incredibly entertaining. His comedy is bold and thought provoking and a refreshing change from juvenile talk about sex, or the difference between men and women. Keith has been featured on A&E, Showtime, and Comedy Central, where his material about being the poor kid in school; modern parenting; and life in the 21st Century were a huge hit. If you don't mind thinking a lot, Keith Anthony is the comic for you!

His show this weekend at The Comedy Cove will also feature Marc Overton and Jeff Cerrulli.

ROBERT KAPLOW BRINGS “ME AND ORSON WELLES”
TO THE SHOWROOM

by Katie Hart
(Asbury Park, NJ)


The Showroom, Asbury Park’s independent cinema and performance space, will again partner with Cookman Ave. bookstore words! and the online literary magazine SplashofRed.net on Sunday, April 18 to continue the increasingly popular BookFLX series. This month’s event will bring history and Hollywood to The ShowRoom with a multi-media presentation by author Robert Kaplow, whose 2003 book, “Me and Orson Wells,” was made into the 2007 movie starring Zac Efron, Claire Danes and Christian McKay.

Kaplow’s novel is set in 1937 and follows the story of New Jersey teenager Richard Samuels, who happens upon the cast of Orson Welles’ 1937 Mercury Theater production of “Julius Caesar.” After being cast on the spot by Welles, the teen is thrown into the tumultuous world of Welles’ theater production and begins to fall in love with production assistant Sonja Jones.

In 2006, a colleague of director Richard Linklater bought the movie rights after stumbling upon Kaplow’s novel in an independent bookstore. A few months later, Kaplow received an email from Linklater, met with him to discuss the story, and was then consulted throughout filming. Kaplow will discuss this process and the experience of seeing his story translated on screen at The ShowRoom’s BookFLX event.

Reading from his book, Kaplow will contrast his written words with actual scenes from the movie, which exists as a screener copy only. A Charlie Rose video will also be screened in which a number of the film principals discuss their involvement in the movie. Once the film is released on DVD, it will be scheduled at The ShowRoom. Admission to this BookFLX event entitles ticket holders to attend the upcoming “Me and Orson Welles” film screening for free upon presenting their BookFLX ticket stubs.

Kaplow, a Metuchen resident and Summit High School English teacher, has written four books in addition to “Me and Orson Welles.” They include: “Two in the City”; “Alex Icicle: A Romance in Ten Torrid Chapters”; “Alessandra in Love”; “Alessandra in Between”; and “The Cat Who Killed Lillian Jackson Braun: A Parody.”

The multi-media presentation with Robert Kaplow will begin at 4:00 p.m. on April 18. For tickets, please visit www.theshowroomap.com or call 732-502-0472.

A Green Christmas in Warren County New Jersey

by Henry Skirbst
(Phillipsburg, New Jersey, USA)

Has the hectic holiday season got you hopping and shopping around town, again? Why not make a relaxing trip to the country part of your annual Christmas tradition? Spend an enjoyable day with your family in scenic Warren County to restore a sense of peace, while filling your senses with joyful pleasures and good tidings you can enjoy all season long.

Nestled between Routes 80 on the north and 78 on the south, are some of the state’s most nostalgic farmsteads just yearning to share some Christmas cheer with you. A winsome journey along County Route 519 will take you to some of the most refreshing holiday destinations in the state. Here’s but a sampling of what you can savor while traveling southward.

Tantalize your taste buds at Four Sisters Winery. There’s nothing like a holiday toast with one of the many fruit wines made from grapes and apples grown right here on this 250-acre farm. Enjoy a tour of the winery where some of the blends named after the daughters (Four Sisters) and now grandchildren are aging. You will have to wait until 2011 to sample Ethan’s Pumpkin or Strawberry Serena. So plan a trip back to sample these special wines and join us for one of our grape-stomping parties. Pick up a schedule of events while there and ask about the Christmas in the Country promotion. You could receive a gift during your travels!

Further south, you will have to stop at the blinking light. To your right is Hensler Farms, formerly known as Crossroads Farm. Enchanting, hand-made wreaths and greens are prepared inside. Known for their fragrance and beauty, displaying these treasures on your home or business will welcome visitors throughout the entire season. As you continue southward, your vehicle will come alive with the pleasant aroma, rejuvenating you as you continue on your way.

Just down the road a piece is Mackey’s; look for the big apple on the left. Have a bite to eat and restore your energy further. After some home-made soup, bread, and fresh-pressed cider, you won’t be able to choose just one dessert. You will be tempted by apple turnovers, dumplings, cake, and apple crisp. Undoubtedly, you will need to take one or more of the fresh-baked pies home. You’ll have to decide between apple, cherry, blueberry, peach praline, pineapple- upside-down, apple walnut, and very berry.

As you think about who to invite over for some pie later, pick up another gift for them and you as well. Across the street, a stones-throw away is the Gro-Rite Greenhouse & Garden Center. Their vibrant poinsettias are always a pleasant addition to anyone’s house this time of year. During the warmer months, Gro-Rite can also provide many of your gardening and landscaping needs.

Your new-found energy will come in handy as you make your way just a bit further to the Wyckoff’s Christmas Tree Farm on the left. For over 45 years, this eight-generation farm has created life-long memories for many families as they make their annual trek to the hilltop to find and cut their family tree among the thousands of trees available on this 172-acre farm. The whole experience is conveniently streamlined for you as they will prepare the tree for easy transport, display, and care at home.

Farms like Wyckoff’s, with the National Christmas Tree Association (NCTA), are educating the public of the benefits of getting a real Christmas tree rather than an artificial one in your home. Aside from the obvious benefit of filling your home with the fragrance of winter, for every tree that is cut and sold, farmers plant two or three trees to replace it. These additional trees help to clean the air we breathe, and are also naturally biodegradable.

Artificial trees not only end up in landfills, but are manufactured with a variety of non-biodegradable materials such as petroleum-based plastics and other metal alloys. According to the NCTA, 85% of artificial trees sold in the U.S. are imported from China and may have had lead used in production. Real trees are 100% home-grown and support local economies.

To recycle your tree, return in January to Perfect Christmas Tree Farm on Route 22 in Phillipsburg. The farm holds an annual Tree Chip Day celebration. The day includes plenty of other activities. Make it a Green Christmas this year!

Continuing south on 519, you may find that perfect centerpiece, cemetery blanket or log box at Clucas Farms West. Better yet, you may want to custom order for an added personal touch. A pleasant change from the mass production look of the large stores, friendly and helpful faces create refreshing choices for your holiday needs.

Once your tree and other decorations are ready to go, you probably will be as well. Traveling the bucolic hills of Harmony Township will eventually lead you back toward the suburban sprawl near Route 22 (leading to Route 78).

If you’re not ready to end your Christmas in the country just yet, continue further south on 519, then to 627 south, to Villa Milagro Vineyards. Your journey began with one winery; it can end with one too. This vineyard is noted for having numerous green practices. If the weather outside is frightful, you may have the opportunity to learn how to take advantage of rainwater during a rain-barrel workshop at the winery, in addition to sampling some of their superb blends.

Consider making this an annual tradition for you and your family. As you head home, your senses will thank you all the way.

Jesus Christ Superstar 2010- A Rock Opera

by alex
(Fair lawn NJ)


Old Library Theatre presents
JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR
A Rock Opera
Music by Andrew Lloyd Webber, Lyrics by Tim Rice
Directed and Choreographed by Alex Perez
Music Direction by Charles Santoro

(Fair lawn, NJ) – The Old Library Theatre under the Fair Lawn Recreation Department marks the summer of 2010 with a revisionist version of the 40th anniversary of the rock classic, Jesus Christ Superstar. Although musicals based on biblical topics are not uncommon, Jesus Christ Superstar was considered controversial when it first opened in the 1970s. While audiences had no objection to a rock opera, they did object to having the last seven days of Jesus' life shown through the eyes of his betrayer, Judas. This musical takes advantage of the fact that Jesus is considered a rebel in his time, portraying his followers as rock children and activists from their generation. In this new revisionist 2010 version, JCS will have controversial issues relating to today’s times. It will have a post-apocalyptic vibe set in a tone of a long form rock/dance music video amidst modern-day taboos.

Our cast of 30 outstanding performers (from NYC, Hudson, Bergen and Passaic Counties in NJ) includes Jose Candelaria (American Idol Season 7 Finalist) as Jesus, Brendan Joel Bartlett as Judas, Kate Peet as Mary and Zack Aretakis as Pontius Pilate.

Show will run for 2 weekends:
FRIDAY JULY 30 @ 8pm SATURDAY JULY 31 @ 2pm & 8pm SUNDAY AUG 1 @ 3pm
FRIDAY AUG 6 @ 8pm SATURDAY AUG 7 @ 2pm & 8pm SUNDAY AUG 8 @3pm

Virtuous, talented Antonio Salieri … all he longed for, all he lived for, all he implored of God was to “let me be a composer. I will honor you with music all the days of my life.” He got fame and fortune but never did he feel the touch of his God’s blessing. Instead, he saw it bestowed on the feckless, childish Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. And while the world was blind to the young man’s genius, Salieri himself was blinded by envy and plotted Mozart's destruction. Travel with PinnWorth Productions from the Emperor's royal court to elegant salons; from extravagant theatres to the raucous beer halls of 18th Century Vienna as this legendary rivalry plays out through the boy genius’ soaring music and Peter Shaffer’s award-winning words.

GuGa @ One Gallery - M A S K E T


Guerilla Galleries will present “MASKET”, a comprehensive representation of the work of abstract artist Alex Masket, at the One Gallery in Newark’s One Gateway Center.

This solo exhibition emphasizes Masket's uninhibited, bold use of color and his facility with unconventional media. Along with colorful works on canvas and poster board, the exhibition includes sections of Masket’s duct-taped bedroom walls and Breaking Boundaries: The Art of Alex Masket, an award-winning documentary by Dennis Connors.

Entirely self-taught, Masket's work is dominated by color and form. Utilizing various media in unorthodox ways to realize his vision, Masket creates pieces that are intricately composed and beautifully balanced. Masket, who has severe autism, is unrestrained by the limitations of tradition, contemporary tastes or schools of thought. He displayed his sophisticated sense of color and his interest in letters and numbers at the age of two. Now 23, he uses his instinctive understanding of color, light and form to reveal his unique view of the world.

This event is sponsored by the Newark Arts Council and hosted by leading real estate owner and developer Advance Realty, owner of One Gateway Center. Like all events hosted at One Gallery, a portion of the proceeds of “MASKET” will raise money for Newark-based charities through the Advance Realty Foundation.

The public is invited to attend an opening reception on April 10, 2010 from 6 to 9 pm. The exhibition will also be available for viewing during regular gallery hours through the month of June.

Please contact Guerilla Galleries at [email protected] or visit www.gugaart.com for more information, and visit Alex Masket at www.alexmasket.com.

"From The Ashes" is a documentary chronicling the history, loss and rebuilding of a landmark, 125-year-old house known as Tick Hall. In 1997, a huge fire burned Tick Hall to the ground, leaving only the blackened chimney standing. The loss was a blow to the community and Tick Hall's owners - talk-show host Dick Cavett and his wife, actress Carrie Nye - who lived there for 30 years. Because of its historic and artistic importance, the Cavetts embarked upon an ambitious three-year project - rebuilding Tick Hall exactly as it was. Join the director of this moving documentary at The ShowRoom after the film for a discussion and Q & A session.

“BURZYNSKI” BRINGS MEDICAL BREAKTHROUGH TO THE SHOWROOM

The ShowRoom, Asbury Park’s only art house movie theater, is bringing the controversial documentary “Burzynski” to Cookman Ave. The newly released film is receiving acclaim for its in-depth look at the largest FDA battle in American history, a battle over a progressive cancer treatment discovered by Dr. Stanislaw Burzynski in the 1970s.

While “Burzynski” will screen at The ShowRoom from June 23 to June 26, the film’s director, Eric Merola, will make a special appearance at the Cookman Ave. movie theater on Saturday, June 26 at 4:00 p.m. Merola, along with a cancer patient that has successfully undergone Burzynski’s treatment, will introduce the film and participate in a Q & A session after the screening. “Burzynski” will come to The ShowRoom just weeks after making its premiere in Los Angeles and New York.

At the core of film is Dr. Burzynski’s arduous legal battle with the Food and Drug Administration over his discovery of gene-targeted cancer medicines called Antineoplastons. From 1977 to 1995, he was able to produce and administer Antineoplastons without FDA approval in Texas. During this time, Antineoplastons were responsible for curing some of the most incurable forms of terminal cancers; various cancer survivors who chose Dr. Burzynski’s treatment instead of surgery, chemotherapy or radiation are presented in the film

Today, after a 14-year struggle to obtain FDA-approved clinical trials of Antineoplastons, the gene-targeted cancer treatments are in their final stages of FDA testing; patients are only allowed to be treated by Dr. Burzynski if they have unsuccessfully tried other methods of treatment and agree to join the clinical trials. Upon FDA approval, Dr. Burzynski will be the first single scientist to hold the exclusive patent and distribution rights to a paradigm-shifting medical breakthrough.

GUERILLA GALLERIES PRESENTS ‘WAGNER’ AT ONE GALLERY IN NEWARK’S ONE GATEWAY CENTER

by Guerilla Galleries
(One Gallery @ One Gateway Center, Newark, NJ 07102)


GUERILLA GALLERIES PRESENTS ‘WAGNER’ AT ONE GALLERY IN NEWARK’S ONE GATEWAY CENTER

NEWARK, NJ – From July 17 through August 31

Emerging New Jersey artist Christine Wagner will be exhibiting a collection of her works on paper at One Gallery in Newark’s One Gateway Center.

“WAGNER” illustrates her minimalist aesthetic and modern point of view regarding the abstract. Embracement of negative space, focus on line and confident use of color are the embodiment of Wagner’s unique style. Her media consists of gouache, ink, charcoal, marker, and pencil combined to create bold, vibrant works of art.

Wagner has a background in fashion design with a degree from the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City. She has been regularly showing in northern New Jersey for the past year, most recently in Montclair, West Orange, Newark, and Morristown. Wagner works as a freelance artist’s consultant and assistant and is also a co-founder and co-director of Guerilla Galleries.

The public is invited to attend an opening reception on Saturday, July 17, 2010 from 6 to 10pm. The exhibition will also be available for viewing during gallery hours and by appointment through August 31.

One Gallery is conveniently located off of Route 21 in the lower lobby of One Gateway Center. The building is directly across the street from Newark Penn Station and is easily accessible by bus or train. Parking is available in a secure parking deck adjacent to the building.

Please contact Guerilla Galleries for more information at [email protected] and visit Christine Wagner at www.christinewagnerart.com.

This event is hosted by leading real estate owner and developer Advance Realty, owner of One Gateway Center. Like all events hosted at One Gallery, a portion of the proceeds of “WAGNER” will raise money for Newark-based charities through the Advance Realty Foundation, which was formed in 2001 to improve education and educational opportunities, preserve arts and history, positively affect today’s youth/families, and enhance economic opportunities for at-risk and urban populations.

About Guerilla Galleries
Guerilla Galleries (GuGa) was an idea born of three artists who wished to exhibit their own art, as well as other emerging artists, in a new and innovative manner. They hope to slowly and steadfastly promote artistic expression and expansion wherever they are welcome and supported to do so. By employing unused and unusual spaces they work to create, market and execute professional, high impact exhibitions and provide a venue for burgeoning new talents to showcase their creativity and abilities.

Christine Wagner, Marshall Okin and Stan Sudol, the founders and directors of GuGa, are approaching the gallery in a new fashion by taking the underground art scene and making it far more accessible, and hopefully beneficial, for both artist and community.

About Advance Realty Foundation
The Advance Realty Foundation is a 501(c)3 organization established in 2001 by Peter J. Cocozielli, founder and CEO of leading real estate developer and owner Advance Realty of Bedminster, N.J. The mission of the Advance Realty Foundation is to meaningfully improve the self-sufficiency and effectiveness of organizations focused on education, arts/humanities, youth, families and community development issues. Since 2001, it has supported such charitable organizations locally as St. Vincent’s Academy in Newark and many others statewide. To date, the One Gallery has featured more than 60 original works of art and photographs from local artists.

The Murder of Emmett Till
Screening at The ShowRoom, Asbury Park

by Katie Hart
(Asbury Park, NJ)

The Murder of Emmett Till Screening at The ShowRoom

Considered a catalyst for America's civil rights movement, the murder of 14-year-old Emmett Till, and the events after his death, are explored in this documentary. While visiting the Deep South, Till whistled at a white woman, an act for which he was brutally killed. Activists got organized after Till's mother let national newspapers run pictures of her mangled son, the trial ended in acquittal, and the federal government failed to intervene sparking many activists to mobilize.

Education for Justice is hosting the screening in honor of Black History Month. EJF’s Director, Jim Keady, will lead a discussion about the film immediately following the screening. Educating for Justice aims to become the hub of social justice activity at The Jersey Shore. They provide online resources, study groups. lectures, grassroots campaigns and now film screenings to educate and organize local citizens to promote peace and justice. Director Jim Keady kicked off the film series at The ShowRoom last month with “Citizen King” and continues to carry out EJF’s mission with this month’s “The Murder of Emmett Till.”

Show Time:
Tuesday, February 23 at 7 p.m.

Squeeze and Cheap Trick

Presented by AEG Live, Concerts East, and State Theatre
Sun, July 18, 2010 at 7:30pm
With the perfect combination of Chris Difford's lyrics and Glenn Tilbrook's melodies, Squeeze created some of the most memorable and most loved songs of any generation of songwriters. Songs such as “Pulling Mussels (From a Shell),” “Tempted,” “Cool for Cats,” “Black Coffee in Bed,” and “Up the Junction” cemented their place as one of Britain’s most important bands in new-wave music.

Cheap Trick may be one of the most covered bands of all time. Since the 70s they’ve been blending elements of pop, punk and even metal in a way that is instantly catchy and recognizable. With timeless classics such as “I Want You to Want Me,” “Surrender,” and the late 80s lighter-waving favorite, “The Flame,” Cheap Trick are a musical institution.

With more than 5,000 performances, 20 million records sold, 29 movie soundtracks, and 40 gold and platinum recording awards, the band was honored in October 2007 by the Chicago Chapter of NARAS (National Academy of Recording Arts & Sciences) for their contributions to the music industry. Their most current release, The Latest, has garnered glowing reviews worldwide and continues Cheap Trick’s reign as power-pop progenitors as they celebrate their 35th anniversary together.

KENWOOD RACING BRINGS DERBY FEST
TO THE SHOWROOM

by Katie Hart
(Asbury Park, NJ)


Another authentic event is coming to Cookman Avenue’s entertainment destination, The Showroom, on Friday, April 30.  The ShowRoom will partner with Kenwood Racing for “Derby Fest,” an evening-long celebration of thoroughbred racing and racehorses.  Happening on the eve of one of the biggest sporting events of the year, the Kentucky Derby, “Derby Fest” will boast a screening of the horse documentary “Phar Lap,” special appearances by Kenwood Racing founder Robb Levinsky and other thoroughbred owners, and a charity Kentucky Derby pool to benefit ReRun, a 501c3 nonprofit organization whose mission is to find retired racehorses a second home.  Refreshments, entertainment and prize giveaways will be featured throughout the evening.

“Derby Fest” will kick off at 6:00 p.m. at the boutique Asbury Park cinema with a screening of “Phar Lap,” a documentary about the famed, Australian thoroughbred race horse.  Known also as “Wonder Horse,” “Big Red” and “Red Terror,” Phar Lap’s talents and entertainment are renowned for easing the pain and stress of many onlookers during the years of the Great Depression. The film traces the Phar Lap’s life up to his sudden and tragic death in 1932.

Guest speaker Robb Levinsky will continue the evening with insights and forays into the world of thoroughbred ownership and racing, as well as offering his personal selections for the most likely winner of the Kentucky Derby and other major races offered on Derby Day at Churchill Downs.  Levinsky is the founder and managing partner of Kenwood Racing, one of the leading thoroughbred stables at nearby Monmouth Park in 2008 and 2009.  Kenwood Racing is known for winning major stake races at huge odds with horses purchased for very modest prices, including the California Derby in 1998 with Prime Meridian at odds of 16 to 1, and the $100,000 Charles Hess Handicap in 2009 with New Jersey Bred Hermosillo at odds of 35 to 1. 

Prize giveaways for “Derby Fest” attendees will include Monmouth Park box seats, movie passes to The ShowRoom, and gift certificates from local vendors.  Also during the course of the evening, other thoroughbred owners will join Levinsky to share their personal experience as thoroughbred owners.

For more information about “Derby Fest,” or for tickets to the event, please call 732-502-0472 or visit www.theshowroomap.com.  To learn more about Kenwood Racing, please visit www.kenwoodracing.com

Special Earth Day Screening of 'Tapped'
at The ShowRoom

by Katie Hart
(Asbury Park, NJ)


THE SHOWROOM USHERS IN EARTH DAY WITH BENEFIT SCREENING
AND PANEL DISCUSSION
Asbury Movie Theater Screens “Tapped,” Hosts Benefit with Key Environmental Groups

The Showroom, Asbury Park’s only independent cinema, will celebrate and raise awareness for Earth Day by screening the film “Tapped” and hosting a panel discussion on Wednesday, April 21 at 8:00 p.m. In celebration of Earth Day, a portion of the evening’s proceeds will be donated to Clean Ocean Action. The “Tapped” event will also be comprised of members from key environmental groups including Clean Ocean Action, Back 2 Tap, Food and Water Watch, and Asbury Park’s Environment and Shade Tree Commission.

“Tapped” explores the role the bottled-water industry plays in society and the numerous negative effects is has on people’s health, climate change, pollution and our reliance on oil. The film exposes the audience to little-known facts about bottled water and presents a compelling case of why returning to tap water is not only safer, but a necessary step in resolving key environmental and political issues.

After the film, The ShowRoom will host a panel discussion on the issues that “Tapped” addresses with representatives from important environmental groups invested in the issues. Joining the panel will be Renee Vogelsang from Food and Water Watch, Meg Gardner from Clean Ocean Action, and Tom Pivinski from the Asbury Park Environment and Shade Tree Commission. Lydia Chambers from Back 2 Tap will also appear at The ShowRoom along with a water-bottle display and visual components that illustrate the environmental impact of water bottles.

By attending the April-21 event, audience members can celebrate early Earth Day and show their support of an important New Jersey environmental advocacy group. “Tapped” will screen at 8:00 p.m., with the panel discussion to follow. For tickets, movie schedules and more, please visit www.theshowroomap.com or call 732-502-0472.

The Habit of Art - April 22nd

The Habit of Art

Thursday, April 22, 2010

7 p.m.

A new play by Alan Bennett

With Michael Gambon, Frances De La Tour, Adrian Scarborough, and Alex Jennings

Auden often said that metre and rhyme led him down unexpected paths to thoughts he wouldn't otherwise have had, and in this respect versification and fornication are not so different.

Benjamin Britten, sailing uncomfortably close to the wind with his new opera, Death in Venice, seeks advice from his former collaborator and friend, W H Auden. During this imagined meeting, their first for twenty-five years, they are observed and interrupted by, amongst others, their future biographer and a young man from the local bus station.

Alan Bennett's new play is as much about the theatre as it is about poetry or music. It looks at the unsettling desires of two difficult men, and at the ethics of biography. It reflects on growing old, on creativity and inspiration, and on persisting when all passion's spent: ultimately, on the habit of art.

Following the huge success of The History Boys, Alan Bennett returns to the National.

"In the end," said Auden, "art is small beer. The really serious things in life are earning one's living and loving one's neighbour."

You are a rent boy. I am a poet. Over the wall lives the Dean of Christ Church. We all have our parts to play.

CHRIS MONTY  @  THE COMEDY COVE

CHRIS MONTY @ THE COMEDY COVE

Born and raised on Long Island, Chris was fascinated with show business at an early age. He yearned to be in front of an audience singing or dancing. Many a party would find Chris performing in front of friends and relatives to a big round of applause. But it was when he saw Red Skelton on television that he knew what he wanted to do for the rest of his life.

Chris spend the early years of his career honing his clever material and uniquely physical act. Along the way he was a writer for several television shows, most notable "the Joan Rivers Show". After years of paying his dues, Chris now performs in the best clubs around the country and is a regular in Las Vegas and Atlantic City If he looks familiar it's because he's appeared on numerous network shows and commercials. If he doesn't look familiar to you ... he will soon!

Thoroughbred Ownership 101: Get In The Game!

by Katie Hart
(Asbury Park, NJ)

Owning Thoroughbred race horses is like owning a professional sports team, except the “players” don’t ask for no-cut contracts and salary increases!  Once solely a privilege of the ultra-wealthy, racing syndicates and various shared ownership options have made it possible for a wide range of people to experience the thrill of standing in the winners’ circle with their own race horse. 

“Thoroughbred Ownership 101”, presented by Robb Levinsky of Kenwood Racing, offers an informative and entertaining “inside look” at the ups and downs of owning these remarkable equine athletes.  If you have ever wondered what it’s really like to own a race horse, you’ll have a great “leg-up” on how the business really works.
 
WHEN: Saturday, June 26th, 12:00 p.m.
WHERE: The Garden Room on the 3rd Floor of the Clubhouse
Attendees will receive free admission, free programs, free clubhouse passes

Moving, Meaningful Documentary Screening at The ShowRoom

Women in War Zones Screening at The ShowRoom

Some wars make headlines; some do not. In the messy aftermath of the Rwandan civil war, refugees fled to the neighboring Democratic Republic of Congo (formerly Zaire). As many as 100,000 of the Interahamwe, a militia partially responsible for the Rwandan genocide, crossed the border to avoid prosecution for acts against humanity. Thousands of women who have been raped and mutilated in the DRC can attest that the momentum to kill and maim is still in full swing despite a peace agreement signed in 2003. Nestled in the hills along the Rwandan border, Panzi Hospital stands as the last hope for many of Congo's victims of sexual violence.

"Women in War Zones" dives intimately into the lives of two young women who become sisters during their time of treatment at Panzi hospital. Helene and Bijoux, 22 and 13, support each other in their fight and struggle to maintain hope and a sense of dignity as they come to grips with their violent and tragic past. The women, along with the staff of the hospital, look for hope in each other, God, and the upcoming presidential elections -- the first in over 40 years.

Join the director of this moving documentary after the screening for a Q & A session at The ShowRoom. Please visit http://www.womeninwarzones.org/page.php?page=home for information about the film.

It's a Night of Love & Laughter! VALENTINE'S DAY at The Comedy Cove @ Scotty's with

by Laurielle Nagel
(Springfield, N.J.)

Brian McKim  &  Tracy Skene

Brian McKim & Tracy Skene

Laughter is a great aphrodisiac and unlike oysters and red M&M's, it won't give you food poisoning or make you fat. So take your sweetheart to THE COMEDY COVE @ Scotty's Steakhouse on Valentine's Day weekend for the special Valentine's Day Show starring Brian McKim and Tracy Skene. Both sexes will get their say when McKim and Skene split the bill, and these two know a little something about Comedy and romance: They're married. McKim met Skene working the circuit in Philadelphia in the '80's and a few years later they got hitched and went on the road together. (they also co-write the excellent online comedy Journal Shecky Magazine). McKim doles out rapid-fire jokes with a deadpan delivery, while the more expressive Skene is all wry grins and sarcasm. They've toured all 50 states, been featured numerous times on TV, and have gently acerbic but clearly differentiated styles that wonderfully compliment each other, though McKim and Skene don't go onstage together. "Doing some sort of duet is an entirely different animal than a solo act, and something we've never put any energy into trying to figure out," McKim says. "My wife likes to say that the 40 minutes she spends onstage is the only time she gets away from me".

So do something Fun together this Valentines...
Come enjoy a Comedy Show & Dinner at
SCOTTY'S STEAKHOUSE & COMEDY COVE
It's sure to be a night of good, clean fun!!
Dinner is served 2 hours before the show. Club is upstairs.

SPANKY is performing Friday, June 18th & Sat.June 19th@ THE COMEDY COVE!

(Springfield, N.J.)

SPANKY  @  THE COMEDY COVE!

SPANKY @ THE COMEDY COVE!

SPANKY was the wacky orderly on ER, the crazy guy on Profiler and, in the movie High School High, he played the homeless man who sets up a booth at Career Day. He's also known for being censored for talking dirty to Heather Locklear on The Late Show and for knocking Rick Rockwell out of the semifinals on Star Search. Oh yes, he's also performed at over 500 comedy clubs and colleges, twice voted "Comic Of The year." Spanky's first time on stage, he was a male dancer on Dallas; he was fired for having his G-String on backwards (and it fit). He was going to quit anyway, because some women thought it was funny to tip him with dollar bills dipped in BenGay! All this means one thing...SPANKY IS ONE FUNNY DUDE!!! Don't miss your chance to see this fantastically funny, one-of-a-kind performer, live this weekend at THE COMEDY COVE.
Also featuring Dennis Ross and Elaine Williams.

Lunasa and Martin Hayes & Dennis Cahill
Pollak Theatre Monmouth University


Lúnasa and Martin Hayes & Dennis Cahill

Friday, April 23, 2010 at 8 p.m.

Cost: $30/38

Lúnasa
Lúnasa, Ireland’s new all-star quintet, steers Irish acoustic music into surprising new territory with inventive arrangements and bass-driven grooves. With its distinctive use of the upright acoustic bass, teamed with percussive guitar, melodic interweaving of wind and string instruments, pairing flutes, fiddle, whistle and pipes Lúnasa achieves breathtaking arrangements. The result is a sound that, though distinctly Irish in flavor touches on jazz and other improvisational music forms.


Martin Hayes and Dennis Cahill
Irish fiddle virtuoso Martin Hayes and American master guitarist Dennis Cahill have garnered international renown for taking traditional Irish music to the edge of the genre with slow-building, fiery performances while incorporating sensibilities from the worlds of blues and jazz. Hayes has taken home a National Entertainment Award (the Irish equivalent to the Grammy) and in 1999, was named Folk instrumentalist of the Year by the BBC Radio Awards. While Martin pursues a melody, Dennis explores the harmony and rhythm within the tunes. Hayes says, “Our primary wish is that the musical experience be one that lifts our spirits and those of the audience.”

“The Good Thief,” Tinti’s first novel, made the New York Times list of 100 Notable Books of the Year in 2008. Set in 19th-century New England, the story follows an orphan, Ren, who gets adopted by an ex-soldier, Benjamin Nab, claiming to be his long-lost brother. While Ren journeys through the whaling towns of New England with Nab, he is exposed to an underground world of scamming, grave robbing and thievery. Torn as to whether to stay with Nab or journey out on his own, Ren finds himself getting closer to his mysterious past and soon realizes Nab may hold the key to his future.

Tinti will appear on The ShowRoom’s big screen via Skype to discuss her acclaimed novel and answer questions from the audience. To accompany Tinti’s discussion of “The Good Thief” will be a screening of “The Body Snatcher,” a film that deals with the all-to common internal battle of right versus wrong that is at the heart of Tinti’s novel. The film stars Boris Karloff, the horror film icon best known for his role as the monster in the original “Frankenstein.”

“The Body Snatcher” will screen at 4:00 p.m. on Sunday June 13; a discussion with Tinti will follow. For tickets, movie schedules and more, please visit www.theshowroomap.com or call 732-502-0472.

The term "Belly dance" is a misnomer as all parts of the body are involved in the dance; the most featured body part being the hips.
Belly dance takes many different forms depending on country and region, both in costume and dance style; and new styles have been invented in the West as its popularity has spread globally.

THIRST-E PRODUCTIONS, IN COLLABORATION WITH
THE SHOWROOM, PRESENTS “CLOSER”

by Katie Hart
(Asbury Park, NJ)


The ShowRoom, Asbury Park’s only independent cinema, will host the premier performance of Thirst-E Productions’ adaptation of “Closer.” Running from Thursday, April 8 to Saturday, April 10, the bold play, which won awards when it ran in London and on Broadway, and was adapted into an Oscar-nominated movie in 2004, now makes its home at The ShowRoom for this limited engagement.

After the original theater fell through, Thirst-e Productions had a difficult time finding a venue that would be comfortable hosting the risqué performance; centering on themes of love, sex, infidelity and heartbreak, the play is billed as a dark comedy that explores the great need to love and to be loved in return. The ShowRoom, which is earning a reputation as a bold and intriguing performance venue, was eager to collaborate with Thirst-e Productions and provide a home for the company’s production of “Closer.”

Thirst-e Productions, a labor of love for some dedicated theater folks, strives to present exciting, outside-the-box productions for the Monmouth County theatergoer. Its first production, “Closer” stars a group of young, local actors: Anthony Younes, of Holmdel; Tammy Owens, of Cliffwood Beach; Samantha Ambler of Long Branch; CJ Nolan of Atlantic Highlands; and a local director as well, Steve Hirsekorn of Neptune City. The wealth of local talent and dedication to Monmouth County makes The ShowRoom an ideal location for the company’s premier production.

“Closer” runs April 8 and 9 at 8:00 p.m. and April 10 at 7:00 p.m. Tickets are $20 and are available at 732-495-9591 or on www.eBay.com (Item # 250593561015). To learn more about The ShowRoom, please visit www.theshowroomap.com or call 732-502-0472.

Joining Mayor Johnson on the panel will be performance artist Lorraine Stone, Asbury Park High School Principal Tyler Blackmore, and Eatontown’s Memorial Junior High School Principle Ron Danielson, an Asbury Park High School alumnus.

Suzanne Vega
With exquisite melody, Grammy-winner Suzanne Vega sings in a distinctive, clear vibrato-less voice that has been described as "a cool, dry sandpaper-brushed near-whisper." One of the most brilliant songwriters of her generation, Suzanne?s poetic songs focus on city life, ordinary people, and real world subjects.

Solitude Standing was nominated for three Grammys including Record of the Year and went platinum with ?Luka,? a song that has entered the cultural vernacular. Suzanne?s recent recording, Beauty & Crime is a love letter to her hometown of New York City and was hailed ?as original, gritty and gorgeous as ever? by Newsweek and ? ... lovely and literate? by People Magazine.

Arts Administration/Music Business Workshop

Saturday, April 10, 2010 Time TBA

Location to be announced.

Tabby's Place: A Cat Sanctuary

by Angela Townsend
(Ringoes, NJ, USA)

One of our residents, Bellis, who is blind.

One of our residents, Bellis, who is blind.

Tabby's Place is a cage-free sanctuary that provides refuge to cats in hopeless situations. Our residents come primarily from public shelters where they had once been scheduled for euthanasia.

This one-of-a-kind facility serves as:
* An Adoption Center, finding loving homes for cats;
* A Hospital, providing medical and surgical treatment for sick or injured residents;
* A Hospice, providing palliative care and a warm, loving environment for chronically or terminally ill cats to live out their lives in comfort.

Tabby’s Place does not turn cats away due to age, medical need, or “lack of adoptability.” It is, therefore, a safe haven for several older, chronically ill, or handicapped cats. These cats have special needs such as heart disease, diabetes, cancer, or blindness. At Tabby’s Place, these cats are able to live full and happy lives with the medical care, love, and affection they deserve.

Unique Features of the Sanctuary:
* Provides communal living environments for cats, with plenty of horizontal and vertical space for exercise and play.
* Provides outdoor enclosures for cats to enjoy fresh air and sunlight.
* Contains special group rooms for cats who are FIV+, overweight, or on prescription diets.
* Contains an in-house medical facility.
* Uses specialized materials to facilitate cleaning and encourage a disease-free environment.

Spaghetti Dinner to Benefit
Family Fighting Cancer
Mariners Masonic Lodge, Barnegat

by Katie
(Asbury Park)

lil’achievers, an early childhood learning center in Howell, announced today its plans to host “Candace’s Spaghetti Dinner”, a fundraising event at the Mariners Masonic Lodge in Barnegat on January 30. The Saturday evening affair will benefit Candace Widner, a 4-year-old Howell resident afflicted with Rhabdmyosarcoma.

Diagnosed in 2007, Candace’s disease promotes fast-growing, highly malignant tumors. Rhabdmyosarcoma stems from the abnormal activity of the primitive muscle cells of the body. Instead of developing into striated muscle tissue, rhabdmyoplasts of infected patients produce tumors, often times throughout the entire body. This aggressive form of cancer accounts for five to eight percent of childhood cancer; 70 percent of children diagnosed are under the age of ten.

Since diagnosis, Candace has had a tennis-ball-sized tumor removed from her nose septum; she has undergone 43 weeks of chemotherapy at The Children’s Hospital of Pennsylvania; and has been treated with five weeks of radiation at Massachusetts General Hospital. Although she is still smiling, Candace continues to battle the life-threatening disease.

lil’achievers will use “Candace’s Spaghetti Dinner” to raise funds for Candace and her family. Tickets are $8 for adults and $5 for children. They can be purchased at the door or ordered in advance by emailing [email protected]. For those who are unable to attend the January-30 fundraising dinner, lil’achievers is currently accepting donations on behalf of the Widner family. Checks made payable to The Candace Widner Fund can be mailed to:

lil’achievers
c/o Candace Widner
326 Ford Road
Howell, NJ 07731

For additional information about the event, or to support the Widner family, please call 732-730-1855.

Carmen - Feb 21st
Pollak Theatre Monmouth University


Carmen – Georges Bizet

Sunday, February 21, 2010 at 7 p.m. - Tickets still available

Approximate Running Time: 4 hours with 2 intermissions

One of the most popular operas of all time, Carmen “is about sex, violence, and racism—and its corollary: freedom,” says Olivier Award-winning director Richard Eyre about his new production of Bizet’s drama. “It is one of the inalienably great works of art. It’s sexy, in every sense. And I think it should be shocking.” Elīna Garanča plays the seductive gypsy of the title in her role debut, opposite Roberto Alagna as the obsessed Don José.

Conductor: Yannick Nézet-Séguin; Production: Richard Eyre; Barbara Frittoli, Elīna Garanča, Roberto Alagna, Mariusz Kwiecien

SMETANA Selected Works for Piano
DVOŘÁK Piano Quintet in A major, B. 155, Op. 81 1887

Dvořák, more than any other composer before him, successfully brought the music of his homeland into the concert hall, blending folk tradition with art music. His works have endless, universal appeal, from his rollicking Slavonic Dances to the large-scale, fully realized Sextet in A major. Selected short piano works by fellow countryman Bedřich Smetana provide context and a glimpse at Dvořák’s musical roots.

”Russian classical music appeared less than two centuries ago, but although that Russian sound is relatively new, it is a sound most music-lovers recognize and feel to be old,” states Gerard McBurney in his essay on The Elusive Soul of Russian Music. Hear this unmistakable “old” sound in two epic pieces of the Russian repertoire, and in an authentic Russian voice of today—that of composer, pianist, and poet Lera Auerbach.
