'Divas,' premieres
and partnerships mark CBT season
By KYLE W. BARNETTE
Administrative director, Charleston Ballet Theatre
Special to CharlestonCurrents.com
SEPT.
10, 2009 -- When our resident choreographer, Jill Eathorne Bahr,
decided upon her lineup for the 2009-2010 Charleston Ballet Theatre
season, she was hoping her decision to add three new works would
generate interest and create a certain amount of buzz. And when
the premieres of "Motown Mania," a celebration of the
influential music of the Detroit-based scene, and "Zorro"
arrive in early 2010, those shows will have a lot to live up to
in that respect because they will be following a highly-buzzed-about
and glamorous season opener, "Decadent Divas."
Barnette
|
"Decadent
Divas" is a tribute to some of the greatest female entertainers
of the past century, from Judy Garland and Barbra Streisand to Whitney
Houston and Madonna. It's a labor of love from Bahr honoring influential,
strong-willed women who have blazed a trail not only in the music
industry, but in the fields of fashion and dance as well.
In
planning her play list to represent the 12 divas featured in the
dance production, Bahr was both methodical and totally random in
her selections, often citing the opinions of friends, family, staff
and even passers-by on the street and those surrounding her in a
local restaurant or two. Her journey of whittling down her selections
became a show of its own, as Bahr recalls. " 'Decadent Divas'
became the newest craze topic of discussion around the town,"
she says. "Countless coffee table discussions, luncheon gossip
sessions, cocktail hour opinions ... I listened, I debated, I polled,
I lobbied to everyone. I even ignored everyone, drew straws, and
then I just closed my eyes, took a deep breath and picked."
Think
of the word "diva" and many things come to mind: a strong-minded
woman, a difficult and demanding person, or someone with loads of
talent and the ability to maintain a certain "air" about
her. But when discussing the word and its true meaning, one Web
site (http://www.divasthesite.com) has criteria that are simple
and best fit the CBT definition of the word: one with "extraordinary
glamour, mystery, a liberal sprinkling of tragedy and most of all
endurance throughout the years."
Glamour
and fashion became a resounding theme with CBT's upcoming production
and the significant influence many of these women have had on the
world of style and fashion. Charleston Ballet Theatre was lucky
enough to find a kindred spirit in the guise of locally and nationally
celebrated couture designer
Mary Porter.

Porter,
a Charleston Fashion Week rising star long recognized for her elegant
and glamorous couture gowns, was quick to offer her services. At
first she was generous enough to simply allow CBT to use some of
her already built designs to represent some of the divas, but her
passion for the project eventually led her to commit to designing
and building all of the women's costumes for the entire production.
On opening and closing nights of the show, Porter will even be hosting
a mini-runway show to coincide with the theme of the evening's main
event.
Collaboration
has become a hallmark this year with Charleston Ballet Theatre,
with pairings of the ballet's shows with opening-night events and
other specials meant to offer CBT patrons a full experience. Neighboring
Fish Restaurant will be hosting a post-show "Diva Rendezvous"
following all four evening performances of "Decadent Divas"
on Friday and Saturday nights. Attendees of the show will be invited
to cross the street for a complimentary array of fine cheeses and
will receive diva-themed cocktail specials while mingling with the
show's dancers and grooving to the sounds of a live DJ.
As
for the rest of the 2009-10 season, Charleston Ballet Theatre will
premiere several new shows, including the aforementioned "Motown
Mania" and "Zorro," which will be performed in the
Memminger Auditorium complete with audience interaction, costume
events, and music choreographed to the sounds of the Gypsy Kings
among other notable Latin music artists. "Rocky Horror,"
an annual favorite, will be back for a two-week run in late October,
and "The Nutcracker" will expand to performances at the
North Charleston Performing Arts Center in addition to its annual
holiday run at Gaillard Auditorium.

Mystery solved and another Chamber of Commerce moment
By
ANDY BRACK, publisher
CharlestonCurrents.com
SEPT.
10, 2009 -- We were surprised when no one supplied an answer, guessed
or made up something out of whole cloth about the Ashley cream sign
pictured in our Aug. 31 edition.
Brack
|
So
we started snooping around. After asking a few people whether they
knew what the old advertisement referred to on the side of a store
at the corner of Spring and Coming streets, we decided to call our
friend Nic Butler, archivist at the Charleston County Public Library.
He
admitted that he had been curious when he saw the photo, but figured
he wouldn't enter the contest as he had an unfair advantage over
other readers -- all of the resources of the library.
It
turns out the old sign- - obviously left in its original state over
the years to preserve its faded charm -- is an advertisement for
Ashley Ice Cream.
"The
Ashley Ice Cream Company appears in the Charleston city directories
of 1922 through 1945," Butler said. "Their offices and
'factory' were at 572-74 Meeting Street, but I imagine they were
supplying corner grocery stores around town.
"They
weren't the only ice cream business in town, though, so the painted
sign at the corner of Coming and Spring Street was undoubtedly a
form of advertising."
Former
U.S. Sen. Fritz Hollings, who was born the year Ashley Ice Cream
got started, remembered the treat well, noting it was delicious
and had several tasty flavors.
"Everybody
ate Ashley Ice Cream," he recalled. "Very popular; it
was the most popular of all."
Between
the end of World War II and 1948, something apparently happened
to the brand as another ice cream company - Swift's - is listed
as occupying the address that Ashley had for more than two decades.
Mystery
solved!

In
this space, we were planning to ask all of those people lathered
up about President Obama's Tuesday's speech to the nation's students
how they felt now that it had nothing to do with socialism, foisting
liberalism on impressionable minds or other blather spewed by right-wing
nuts on radio and television.
Congressman
Manners
|
But
then came along GOP Congressman Joe Wilson of Lexington who apparently
couldn't control himself Wednesday night during a joint session
of Congress. Wilson, if you haven't heard by now, shouted "You
lie" at Obama during a major address on the need for health
care reform.
Good
one, Joe. Not that South Carolina didn't already have egg on its
face and look like a banana state thanks to its philandering governor.
Not that we didn't already have an image problem.
At
least Wilson had the decency to apologize. The only winner in the
whole dumb mess was Democrat Rob Miller, who apparently raised more
than $100,000 online after Wilson's inappropriate remark.
Now,
for those of you who didn't listen to Obama's education speech,
here's a snipped that sounds
almost Republican
in
its call for students to be responsible:
"But
at the end of the day, the circumstances of your life -- what
you look like, where you come from, how much money you have, what
you've got going on at home -- none of that is an excuse for neglecting
your homework or having a bad attitude in school. That's no excuse
for talking back to your teacher, or cutting class, or dropping
out of school. There is no excuse for not trying.
"Where you are right now doesn't have to determine where
you'll end up. No one's written your destiny for you, because
here in America, you write your own destiny. You make your own
future." Read
or watch full speech.

Mt. Pleasant
Farmers Market adds a month to its season
Patrons
of the Mount Pleasant Farmers Market will have an extra month to
enjoy fresh local produce and the market experience this year. The
market, which was originally scheduled to end its season on Oct.
20, has been extended until Nov. 24, town officials say.
"It
was at the request of our vendors, since we were delayed opening
this season due to Moultrie Middle construction," Ashley McKenzie,
the town's community development and tourism officer, tells Charleston
Currents in an e-mail. "The market times have changed to 4
p.m. to dark. There are lights under the pavilions, so we are encouraging
customers to come past dusk!"
The town will again hold a special Holiday Farmers Market and Craft
Show in December. It's planned for 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Dec. 12.
County leaders to
salute good business news from 2008
Charleston
County Council will hold its sixth annual Industry Appreciation
Week Breakfast next week with the theme "Challenging Times:
Innovation Required." More than 100 local business executives,
elected officials and economic development allies have been invited
to help the county salute the companies that drive the area's economy.
In
conjunction with the event, the county released some good economic
news from the past year. During 2008, businesses within Charleston
County invested $128 million and created 737 new jobs, according
to the S.C. Department of Commerce. Also in 2008, Charleston County
businesses ranked seventh among the state's 46 counties for new-job
creation and ninth for investment. County officials also noted that
companies such as Delfin USA, 2 AM Group, Inc., Cummins, Arcadia
Publishing, Charles River Labs and BAE Systems all relocated or
expanded facilities here, and that, over the past 16 years, county-based
businesses have created nearly 17,500 new jobs and invested nearly
$3 billion in Charleston County.
During the breakfast program, recognition will be given to several
Charleston County-based companies that have gotten awards or accolades
during the past year. The county will also present the 2009 S.C.
Ambassadors for Economic Development Award to Sergio Fedelini, vice
president of Mediterranean Shipping Co., in recognition of his contributions
to the business climate in Charleston and the state.
Economic
Development Director J. Steven Dykes will offer an update of 2008
and 2009 economic activity, and Dr. Frank Hefner, director of economic
analysis at the College of Charleston, will deliver a keynote address
titled "Economic Outlook: It's Still Hurricane Season,"
with insights into the effects of continuing economic uncertainty
even amid the improvements that some economic sectors are seeing.
County
offering 40-pound bags of compost for $2
Charleston
County's Environmental Management Department is now selling 40-pound
bags of compost for $2 per bag. The compost is made from residential
yard waste that is picked up at the curb by the various municipal
trash hauling companies. Residents can purchase the compost at the
Bees Ferry Landfill Compost Facility, 1344 Bees Ferry Road, west
of the Ashley, and at the Charleston County Recycling Center at
13 Romney St. downtown.

Recycling Center. (Charleston County Photo by Robert Ballard)
|
The
landfill will be selling the compost from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. weekdays
and 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Saturdays. Customers should first go to
the scale house (the small white building at the front of the landfill)
and get a receipt to be presented at the compost facility where
purchasers can pick up their bags of compost. To get to the compost
facility, turn right as you drive in and go all the way to the end;
follow the road around to the left, and the compost area is on the
right.
At
the Recycling Center on Romney Street, compost will be available
from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. weekdays. Citizens should pay first at
the front office, then drive to the pile of compost bags at the
shed to load bags into a vehicle. The shed is at the front of the
Recycling Center to the right, in between the electronic and cardboard
containers.
For
questions, call Bees Ferry at 571-0929, the Recycling Center at
720-7111 or go online to http://recycle.charlestoncounty.org.
Free
peripheral arterial disease screenings to be offered
Trident
Health System will offer free screenings for peripheral arterial
disease (PAD) screenings at Trident Medical Center's Ambulatory
Care Center from 8 a.m. until noon Sept. 12. "A simple screening
exam called an ABI - ankle-brachial index - can accurately detect
PAD in most cases," says Dr. Joseph Mullaney, an interventional
radiologist for Trident Health System. "This test takes only
a few minutes and is completely painless. We call it 'noninvasive
testing' because it requires no injections or other invasive procedures."
PAD
affects 8 million Americans and is the most common form of peripheral
vascular disease. If left untreated, it can lead to complications
of the toes, feet and legs. To register for the screening, call
Consult-A-Nurse at 797-FIND (3463) or, for more information, go
to http://www.TridentHealthSystem.com.
A lipid and glucose profile will also be available by appointment
for a fee of $20.

HISTORY
SPOTLIGHT
South
Carolina Society
The
South Carolina Society is a social and benevolent organization established
in Charleston in 1737. Its membership has included gentlemen of
the highest rank in the history of both the city and the state.
The
society was founded by Huguenots, mostly artisans and small merchants,
who gathered weekly at a local tavern and collected funds for the
relief of their distressed countrymen. From this practice they earned
the title "Two Bit Club," but the present name was adopted
in 1737 along with its first set of rules. Within a few years the
French character of the society was diluted by the admission of
English, Scots-Irish, and Scots members. The society's stock steadily
increased through the collection of fees, interest on loans, rents
on leased property, and donations. It was incorporated in 1751.
In
the mid-1740s the society began funding the primary education of
orphans among its ranks, and by the 1760s it employed its own schoolmaster
for this purpose. In 1804 the organization built its own hall on
Meeting Street, which was designed for use as both a school and
a social hall. After the state established free primary education
in 1811, the society closed its classroom, but it opened male and
female secondary schools in 1827. The society's principal era of
activity came to an end around 1840, when the advent of public secondary
education rendered these academies unnecessary. Despite its withdrawal
from educational endeavors, the organization continued to extend
monetary assistance to the families of members in need.
During
the Civil War the society's hall was severely damaged, its records
burned, and much of its invested funds lost. Reorganization and
repairs were gradual, hampered by economic difficulties and natural
disasters. During the early twentieth century the society scaled
back its membership, and public programs gradually superceded its
tradition of extending charitable assistance. The South Carolina
Society is now primarily a social organization. Due to the great
demand for inclusion, only descendants of early members are admitted.
