Side Trips<br />
There is a lovely home just down the<br />
street from us with beautiful, longstemmed<br />
clusters of tulips growing in<br />
the front landscaping. One cluster is peach<br />
colored and the other two a deep rosy red.<br />
Very pretty.<br />
I have three rather<br />
pathetic looking<br />
blooms. Not three<br />
clusters, just three tulips.<br />
With stems about<br />
eight inches long and<br />
reddish blooms. That’s<br />
it. Not memorable.<br />
While out walking<br />
one evening this week,<br />
the fragrance of spring<br />
blossoms greeted us<br />
often, causing me to<br />
MYRNA<br />
WAGNER<br />
inhale large, deep breaths, trying to savor<br />
the scent, as spring is so quickly gone.<br />
A few blocks from the home with tulips,<br />
we walked past beautiful purple phlox in<br />
a raised bed. They were creeping over the<br />
edge of the retaining wall, softening the<br />
harshness of the rock.<br />
Another home along the route already<br />
had containers completed by the front<br />
door, and the homeowner was finishing up<br />
a planter by their mailbox as the last rays of<br />
sunshine filtered through the western sky.<br />
Back home, I stopped to check on three<br />
clusters of native grasses by our front door<br />
that my husband and I transplanted last<br />
fall. You never know if those efforts are<br />
going to survive a harsh Iowa winter, but it<br />
appears these did.<br />
I was delighted with the grasses, but horrified<br />
by the unwanted volunteers I saw<br />
growing between our brick edging and<br />
the landscaping rock. These weren’t pretty<br />
little flowers, but hundreds of little weeds<br />
just emerging as well as tiny morning glory<br />
vines already tangling their way onto the<br />
shrubs.<br />
Spring has barely arrived, and yet the<br />
weeds are taking over. Guess I’d better get<br />
busy.<br />

Jewels<br />
The Royal Ballet presents<br />
classic of Emeralds, Rubies<br />
and Diamonds<br />
George Balanchine’s evocations of<br />
the sparkle of emeralds, rubies<br />
and diamonds is a ballet gem in<br />
its own right.<br />
The Royal Ballet production —<br />
Jewels — will be showcased at the<br />
Pearson Lakes Art Center in Okoboji<br />
at 6:30 p.m. Thursday, May 18.<br />
“I’ve never seen a ballet, but I’m<br />
pretty excited for this one,” said<br />
Amanda Schindler, performing arts<br />
director at PLAC.<br />
Jewels is a masterclass in the many<br />
luminous facets of classical ballet and<br />
The Royal Ballet itself: the virtuoso<br />
choreography of Balanchine, the intensity<br />
of the soloists and the percussion<br />
of the entire company.<br />
The ballet classic is broken down<br />
into three parts — Emeralds, Rubies<br />
and Diamonds.<br />
The French Romantic music of<br />
Gabriel Fauré provides the impetus<br />
for the subtlety and lyricism of Emeralds,<br />
while the fire of Rubies comes<br />
from Igor Stravinsky and the jazz-age<br />
energy of New York. Grandeur and<br />
elegance complete the ballet with the<br />
splendor of Imperial Russian and the<br />
peerless music of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky<br />
in Diamonds.<br />
“I’m most excited to see how they’re<br />
going to incorporate the different<br />
types of jewels and bring that to life<br />
onstage through dance, music, set<br />
design, lighting and all the different<br />
theatrical elements,” Schindler said. “I<br />
think it will be really cool to see.”<br />
The production runs two and-a-half<br />
hours, including two intervals and a<br />
15-minute introduction.<br />
Balanchine, a Russian ballet master<br />
and refugee from the Soviet Union,<br />
created Jewels in 1967 for the New<br />
York City Ballet as a celebration of his<br />
belief and devotion in the art form he<br />
loved — classical ballet.<br />
“A ballet of this caliber isn’t readily<br />
available in this area, and it’s a great<br />
way and very accessible experience for<br />
people to view a type of performing<br />
arts that they might not have otherwise<br />
considered,” Schindler said.<br />
She hopes those attending will enjoy<br />
not only the ballet itself, but the<br />
dance and music aspects as well.<br />
“I know in the music world, they’re<br />
very popular,” Schindler said of the<br />
composers. “It will be fun to see their<br />
music set to dance.” F<br />

Royal Opera<br />
The Royal Opera House leads the<br />
way for world-class opera and ballet<br />
to be experienced in cinemas<br />
and on a variety of digital platforms.<br />
More than 400,000 people in the<br />

or Royal Ballet production in<br />
their local cinema during the 2015-<br />
16 season, an 8 percent increase<br />
on the previous year, with the number<br />
of venues having increased to<br />
more than 450 sites.<br />
Internationally, a new distribution<br />
partnership with Picturehouse Entertainment<br />
sees ROH Live Cinema<br />
reach new audiences around the<br />

in 35 countries.<br />

Bringing back the classics<br />
Riviera Theatre revives films from<br />
1930s, ’40s and ’50s<br />
“La La Land” brought the musical<br />
back to the forefront of film this<br />
year, earning several Academy<br />
Award nominations. One of the many<br />
films it drew nostalgic comparisons<br />
to was the 1952 classic “Singin’ in the<br />
Rain.”<br />
That film starred Gene Kelly<br />
and Debbie Reynolds and is being<br />
brought back to the big screen this<br />
weekend in Emmetsburg.<br />
The Palo Alto Arts Council, with<br />
the help of a grant from the Palo Alto<br />
Gaming Development Corp., is sponsoring<br />
“Classics at the Riviera,” which<br />
will feature a classic film at the Riviera<br />
Theatre on the second Sunday of each<br />
month, beginning with “Singin’ in the<br />
Rain.”<br />
Admission is free of charge and the<br />
movies will start at 4:30 p.m.<br />
One of the goals of the arts council<br />
for the program is to bring a different<br />
form of the arts to the community.<br />
Some people may remember seeing<br />
these movies in the past or have simply<br />
heard of them. For many they will<br />
be completely new.<br />

seen them before or not,” said Kathy<br />
Merrill, one of the coordinators of the<br />
program. “We picked audience favorites<br />
that can be enjoyed whether you<br />
are seeing them for the first time or<br />
remember enjoying them from your<br />
past.”<br />
“Singin’ in the Rain” was picked to<br />
start off the series in part because of<br />
the season. Falling on Mother’s Day,<br />
Merrill thinks it will be a movie to go<br />
see with Mom after brunch. The hope<br />
for the whole series is that it appeals<br />
to all different age groups and draws<br />
people from different towns to Emmetsburg.<br />
Also be sure to check out the Classics<br />
at the Riviera Facebook page for<br />
fast facts and tidbits about the actors<br />
and films leading up to the showing<br />

The Grapes of Death.”<br />
It sure doesn’t sound<br />
like the type of grapes<br />
one would expect at a vineyard.<br />
No worries, these aren’t the<br />
grapes that go into Calico Skies’<br />
award-winning vintages.<br />
Rather, it’s the title of the next<br />
dinner theatre show put on<br />
by Upstage Productions being<br />
hosted Friday, May 19, at the<br />
vineyard and winery just outside<br />
Inwood.<br />
“We’ve stayed with them since<br />
we’ve opened. They’re pretty<br />
much the best at doing this type<br />
of show,” said Calico Skies owner<br />
Will Kimberley. “We’ve never<br />
had a show that wasn’t funny or<br />
that people didn’t enjoy. In four<br />
years, we’ve also had no repeats,<br />
so it’s always fresh, new and<br />
funny.”<br />
Tickets are $45 per person,<br />
which includes dinner and the<br />
show.<br />
The evening begins with a<br />
social hour at 5:30 p.m. During<br />
this time, the actors will mingle<br />
as the crowd filters in and determines<br />
who might be likely<br />
participants in the evening’s<br />
entertainment.<br />
“There is a little bit of audience<br />
interaction, but with the<br />
format most can just sit and<br />
watch a really funny show. The<br />
actors do a good job figuring<br />
out who does want to join in<br />
and have a part,” Kimberley<br />
said. “That part is always fun<br />
and a bit impromptu and sometimes<br />
becomes the best part of<br />
the show.”<br />
After Act I, there is a break for<br />
dinner catered by The Riviera<br />
out of Brandon, SD. After Act II,<br />
there is another intermission for<br />
dessert, then Act III brings the<br />
resolution to the show.<br />
“We don’t usually know a lot<br />
of plot details or scripts ahead<br />
of time, just the theme,” Kimberley<br />
said. “This one is based<br />
off classic material, but some<br />
are more modern. There is always<br />
enough unknown to have<br />
great surprises in every show,<br />
and we expect this one to be<br />
another good one.” F<br />
