Ballet Theatre leaving its mark on Lowcountry with 'Zorro'
By KYLE W. BARNETTE
Administrative director, Charleston Ballet Theatre
Special to CharlestonCurrents.com
MARCH
15, 2010 -- Who
is Zorro?

Barnette
|
This
is a question that has flummoxed many Charlestonians in the past
couple of weeks, with the mysterious masked man in black appearing
in the strangest places around town, staging impromptu sword fights
with his sworn enemies and charming many a damsel, distressed or
not.
With
appearances at the BB&T Charleston Wine + Food Festival, parties
at Lowndes Grove and restaurants from Oak Steakhouse to McCrady's,
our hero has stopped traffic with his antics, turning heads and
creating quite a buzz about the world premiere of his ballet, which
opens this Friday, March 19, at Memminger Auditorium.
The
many legends of Zorro have always been a fascinating subject to
Jill Eathorne Bahr, resident choreographer of Charleston Ballet
Theatre. And as inspiration is the key element to any artistic aspiration,
the tireless choreographer has created an action-packed, romantic
adventure that has become a brand new Zorro tale of the battle of
good vs. evil and the familiar dual hero identity crisis.

"ZORRO"
INFO
What:
Charleston Ballet Theatre production of "Zorro."
When: 8 p.m. March 19 and March 20, 3 p.m. March 21.
Where: Memminger Auditorium, 56 Beaufain St., downtown.
Tavern Seating: Special "Tavern Seating" tickets
($75 per person) will give patrons a seat at lavishly decorated
banquet style tables on the "Zorro" set during the
performance. Tickets include bottomless glasses of sangria
and Spanish-themed tapas. You'll need to wear your best Spanish
attire, though.
Tickets: $35 to $75 (student discounts available for certain
seats and performances). Call 723-7334 or buy
online.
|
Bahr's
new full-length ballet has a very modern, cinematic and sensual
vibe matched with extensive and often shocking sword-fighting and
bullwhip action, something she hopes will appeal to ballet connoisseurs
and film buffs alike.
With
stunning Latin-flavored music from artists such as the Louisville-based
Al Sur flamenco group and popular Latin rock-based duo Rodrigo y
Gabriela, and fight choreography collaborations with Hollywood stuntman
Tim Bell, Bahr's version of the Zorro story is designed to provide
the audience with a full-on sensory experience overload, putting
them right there in the setting and atmosphere of 1870s Spanish-occupied
Southern California.
"Zorro"
will make its world premiere at Memminger Auditorium, a first-time
performance venue for the popular ballet company. Audiences will
have almost an aerial view of the action because the seating looks
down onto the stage. The audience will basically be surrounding
the stage, as Zorro and friends (and enemies) fill a vast majority
of the floor space and fight and dance on the impressive set. The
ballet company has basically adapted the much-buzzed-about set into
a Spanish cityscape, filling the stage with color, levels, and various
spots for romantic interludes and hardcore sword battles.
Brave
and hungry patrons even have the option of a special "Tavern
Seating" ticket that allows them to be seated banquet-style
at large tables on the "Zorro" set, where they can eat,
drink and be merry (courtesy of Fish restaurant) while enjoying
an up-close and personal experience of the new CBT legend of "Zorro."
Charleston
Ballet Theatre is famous for its "watercooler moment"
performances, from the incandescent "Decadent Divas" fashion,
music and dance fusion to the Beatles' love fest of "The Magical
Mystery Tour." Living up to that hype should be no problem
for "Zorro."
Be
on the lookout for "Mark of Zorro" tattoos on King Street;
bearers of the tattoos will receive discounts and gifts from King
Street businesses leading up to the premiere of the ballet. And
find out the answer to the question, "Who is Zorro?" this
weekend by checking out CBT's Facebook page and visiting us online
at http://www.charlestonballet.org.

Clyburn
whips up support for health care reform
By
ANDY BRACK, publisher
MARCH
15, 2010 - Congressman Jim Clyburn (D-S.C.) was in town over the
weekend to whip some energy into about 200 local Democrats who had
their county convention at the Stern Center at the College of Charleston.

Brack
|
It
took only one topic to get thunderous applause: the imminent passage
of major health care reform.
"I'm
going back to Washington Monday night and I'm not coming home until
health care is passed!" Clyburn exclaimed Saturday.
He
cited the need for health care reform to be accomplished for more
than the 40 million Americans without coverage. It needs to be done,
he said, to provide protection and certainty for the tens of millions
of Americans who already have health care coverage. By passing reform,
the health system would become more reasonable, such as a situation
his wife faced when recently in the hospital - aspirins that cost
$15 each.

Clyburn
|
"We
need to get rid of [health care] discrimination because of pre-existing
conditions," Clyburn told NBC's Tom Brokaw Sunday on "Meet
the Press." "We need to get rid of rescissions when people
get catastrophic illnesses. We need to say to young people, 'You
can stay on your parents' insurance policies until you finish law
school or medical school,' what have you. These things we have got
to do, and the senators know that. And we cannot do all of that
without this bill."
Clyburn
was confident that health care reform would pass and be sent to
the Senate for a majority vote through a complex process called
reconciliation. He should know. It's his job as the House Democratic
whip -- the number three leader in the U.S. House - to count Democratic
votes to ensure passage.
But
in the Sunday interview from Columbia, Clyburn admitted that Democrats
didn't yet have all the votes they needed to pass health care reform.
"I
have been talking to members for a long time on this, and they have
the will to do it. They've been looking to us to create a way to
do it. I think we have gotten to a place where we do have the way
to do it, and I think the members are going to vote for this,"
he said.
One
thing is for sure: If something does pass this week or next week,
it probably won't be all that some want
and will be more
than others want. But as Clyburn has been saying for months, the
nation needs to get started with some kind of reform and can make
improvements in years to come - just like it augmented the Civil
Rights Act of 1964 with the Voting Rights Act of 1965 and other
anti-discrimination legislation.

SPEAKING
OF THE GOVERNMENT being high-profile this week, be on the lookout
for once-every-10-year forms from the U.S. Census Bureau. They're
being mailed today and will start arriving during the week.
It's
important for South Carolinians to do better this year than in the
past in completing the forms. In 2000, South Carolina had the second
lowest response rate to Census inquiries in the nation. [More
on why the Census is important.]
A
low response rate leads to underreporting of the state's population,
which can have serious funding impacts. Because the federal government
often bases funding on formulas that use population as a criterion,
the state can get less in federal dollars if head counts are low.
So
if you want the state to get all of the federal funding it deserves
-- and pays for with federal taxes -- it's in everyone's interest
to fill out the Census forms and return them pronto.

Army
official in town to promote health careers to students
Lt.
Gen. Benjamin Freakley, the top officer in charge of recruiting
efforts for the U.S. Army, was in Charleston last week to sign a
national partnership agreement with Health Occupations Students
of America (HOSA) during its South Carolina state conference. The
partnership, termed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), will allow
the Army and HOSA to share expertise and programming that will improve
postsecondary education and health-care career options for HOSA
members.
HOSA
includes South Carolina high school and college students who are
increasingly facing challenges in paying for their education and
may be deterred from pursuing their ambitions altogether because
the pressure to pay off student loan debt could dictate the direction
of their careers after graduation -- for example, taking a job at
a big hospital vs. a humanitarian organization.
The
Army benefits from the partnership because it offers a way for the
Army to communicate the value of Army service to HOSA students,
and HOSA benefits by increased awareness among its members of the
options available to them. The Army offers 90 different health care
career paths - more than any other military service branch -- giving
students a range of opportunities to pay for their education, get
training on the most advanced medical technology available, and
enjoy opportunities to practice in unique and fulfilling environments.
The
conference drew about 1,000 HOSA high school and college students
from around South Carolina who were chosen to attend based on leadership
skills and their interest in health-care careers.
RiverDogs
gear ranks among most popular in Minor Leagues
The
Charleston RiverDogs ranked among the top 25 teams in Minor League
Baseball in merchandise sales in 2009, team officials said last
week. It's the fifth consecutive year that the team has been among
the nation's best.
While
casual clothing such as T-shirts and baseball caps represent most
of the objects sold in the RiverDogs' souvenir shop, other hot items
include souvenir baseballs, sweatshirts, blankets and plush mascot
dolls. "We've known for a very long time that our logo is a
winner and that fans enjoy what we have in our souvenir store,"
said RiverDogs General Manager Dave Echols.
The
store has been coordinated by Michael DeAntonio for the past three
seasons. He is a native Charlestonian and a 2006 graduate of the
University of South Carolina's sports management program.

ENCYCLOPEDIA
Strawberry
Chapel
James
Child, founder of Childsbury Town on the Cooper River in St. John's
Berkeley Parish, bequeathed an acre and a half for a chapel. The
building was complete by 1725, when the South Carolina legislature
passed an act establishing a parochial "chapel of ease"
at the site. Chapels of ease made services more accessible to those
who lived far from the parish centers, but most had to share ministers
with the parish churches. The minister in 1726, Brian Hunt, reported
that he preached at Childsbury once a month and every second Sunday
afternoon. In addition to being at the intersection of two Indian
trading paths, Childsbury was located at the farthest point that
oceangoing vessels could travel up the west branch of the Cooper
River. The town boasted a school, a chapel, a tavern, and a ferry.
 |
The
plan of Strawberry Chapel is typical of Anglican churches in colonial
South Carolina: rectangular with entrances on the north, south,
and west sides. The roof is called "jerkin-head" style
because the beveled gable resembles a hooded jacket or jerkin. Bull's-eye
windows ornament both gable ends, while single windows flank the
doorways and the altar.
In
addition to inhabitants of Childsbury, Strawberry Chapel served
families from prosperous Cooper River rice plantations. The churchyard
at Strawberry contains a special enclosure for the Ball family.
The elaborate kinship network of the Balls included people of other
names as well, and Strawberry Chapel became a symbol of family continuity
in the area. Although no longer in regular use, services were still
held at Strawberry Chapel several times per year into the twenty-first
century. It was listed in the National Register of Historic Places
in 1972.
