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 />

Tickets<br />

Tickets for The Royal Ballet’s<br />

Jewels can be purchased by calling<br />

the Pearson Lakes Art Center’s<br />

box office at 712-332-7013 or online<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 />

United Kingdom saw a Royal Opera<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 />

world in more than 1,500 cinemas<br />

in 35 countries.<br />

Other digital platforms include<br />

the Royal Opera House YouTube<br />

channel, which has 190,000 subscribers<br />

— the most of any arts organization<br />

in the United Kingdom<br />

— CDs, DVDs and Blu-Ray from<br />

the Opus Arte label, BBC Radio<br />

and Television, Sky Arts and Digital<br />

Theatre.<br />

RYLAN HOWE | STAFF WRITER<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 />

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 />

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 />
