Later, storytelling passed onto Blacks in America, who utilized the oral traditions to transcend the harsh conditions of slavery and give voice to the struggles and triumphs they faced on a daily basis. Through storytelling, questions were answered, history was conveyed and lifelong lessons were taught and learned. The most common form of storytelling among these enslaved people was the folk tale. To the African in slavery, the “Brer Rabbit” story was a source of information and strategy. The storytelling was used as a teaching tool and gave these enslaved people a vehicle to empower themselves in the oppressed environment. Today, storytelling remains a powerful tool for sharing the joys and tears that make up our day-to-day journey. Last Thursday at the Silver Room, 1506 E. 53rd St., Hyde Parkers embraced the art of storytelling during the Grown Folks Stories Event. Local storyteller Cara Brigandi hosted no-notes tales by amateur and professional storytellers. “Grown Folks Stories” is a gathering of people from all walks of life, from all sides of the city, who come together to tell their story. Differing from a reading, spoken word or slam, the Storytelling involved a people on the mic, one at a time, surrounded by peers, sharing a part of themselves. Brigandi engaged the crowd, pulling the next storytellers name from a hat and creating segues between stories, while fitting in a few of her own. The stories ranged from adoption to motorcycle rides, lost loves to bird rescue. During “Grown Folks Stories” any story could be told as long as it stayed within the five-minute time restriction. One of the event attendees and Hyde Park resident Samira Malik said that getting a chance to tell her story within an intimate group of See STORIES on page 4 Cara Brigandi serves as master of ceremonies for "Grown Folks Stories" Thursday evening at the Silver Room, 1506 E. 53rd St. Spencer Bibbs Iowa comeback Party with the Village Iowa Pavilion restoration pulls neighborhood together By EMMA HERMAN Herald Intern Members of the Chicago Hyde Park Village had a celebration Sunday afternoon at Augustana Lutheran Church, 5500 S. University Ave., in honor of signing up 100 Hyde Park seniors as members of the Hyde Park Village. Left to right: Paul and Inngrace Dietterich, Susan Alitto and Ismail Turay. Owen M. Lawson III Go to hpherald.com to sign up for breaking news! Monday evening’s storm brought an abrupt halt to the Jackson Park Advisory Council’s annual potluck picnic, but not before the community had a chance to come together, socialize and celebrate the progress that has been made in the last year towards restoring parks and recreational spaces throughout Hyde Park and Kenwood. One of the discussion topics on the table that night was the future of the Iowa Pavilion, the low-slung limestone building that sits at the edge of 56th Street, at the head of the pedestrian underpass at Lake Shore Drive. Built in 1936 by the Works Progress Administration (WPA, a New Deal agency), the building has, in the past, sported a tiled fountain pool, restrooms and MORE INSIDE...

In more recent years, the structure played host to varying types of criminal activity and often served as shelter for the homeless. Broken lights and longdestroyed bathrooms made the almost-century-old building unappealing for use by families or community groups. Getting the building fixed, however, has long been a priority for JPAC, according to council president Louise McCurry. The past year has seen especially notable progress in the rehabilitation of the building. McCurry and other volunteers have cleaned out invasive species, washed the graffiti off the walls and removed the detritus of drug usage, such as the little plastic bags that used to litter the floors. They’ve even, McCurry says, See IOWA on page 5 2 Hyde Park Herald, July 22, 2015 Hip-hop pastor wins Emmy Tacos slated for Ribs ‘N’ Bibs By SAM RAPPAPORT Staff Writer Local pastor and hip-hop artist Julian DeShazier, also known by his stage-name ‘J.Kwest,’ recently won an Emmy for his role in a short film commemorating the 75th anniversary of the classic Billie Holliday song “Strange Fruit.” In late June, DeShazier was one of a team of filmmakers that received an Emmy in the category of Historical/Cultural Program or Special from The National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences, Lower Great Lakes Chapter. DeShazier said he signed on as a writer and musician for the project, entitled “Strange Fruit,” after being contacted by SALT, a Christian, not-for-profit production company. DeShazier said the conception for the short film grew out of the current climate surrounding police violence in African American neighborhoods. “There was this intense racial tension coming into the spotlight,” DeShazier said. “The song Strange Fruit also came from this intense racial moment, we saw a parallel. We asked ourselves, ‘What is the artistic response to what is happening now?’” In 2010, DeShazier was named Senior Pastor at University Church, 5655 S. University Ave., becoming the youngest pastor in the congregation’s history. DeShazier said more pastors should form a deeper connection to the communities they serve. “We need pastors that are more deeply connected to the conversations of the community,” DeShazier said. “I think church is a powerful institution. It’s not about making more Christians, it’s about what faith can do in a community.” Visit hpherald.com to stream “Strange Fruit” and listen to DeShazier in conversation about the themes of the film. [email protected] The former Ribs ‘N Bibs building, 5300 S. Dorchester Ave., is currently under construction and will soon be the home of the Hyde Park Taco Station. The restaurant is expected to open in mid-September, according to restaurant owner Edgar Vasquez. Vasquez describes Hyde Park Taco Station as Mexican fast gourmet street food made from farm-fresh ingredients. Vasquez, who was involved in the design and launch of Harper Court’s Ja’Grill with Tony Coates, chose Hyde Park as the location for his restaurant because he said the neighborhood has “a great sense of energy.” Vasquez said, “People in Hyde Park are friendly, approachable and excited, and I couldn’t be more happy to be a part of the community.” The restaurant will launch this fall, with BYOB service and a liquor license anticipated in summer 2016. [email protected] Herb Kent to be honored at event By EMMA HERMAN Herald Intern Music abounds in Hyde Park this summer, with multiple free concerts happening throughout the neighborhood each week. Newly added to the roster of events is a free open-air music series at Harper Court, co-hosted by the University of Chicago and Eric Williams, owner of the recently-opened jewelry and apparel shop The Silver Room, 1506 E. 53rd St. The concerts are scheduled for the last Wednesday of each month from July to September and will be held in the courtyard area of Harper Court, in the same space as the weekly farmers’ market. The three events, which will all run from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m., feature both music and dancing, with a different genre each month. July 29 is Steppers Night, with radio host Herb Kent and DJ Calvin Haynes hosting. At 7:30 p.m., Wallace E. Goode Jr., president of the Hyde Park Chamber of Commerce, plans to present Kent with a key to the neighborhood in recognition of his long career and other accomplishments. In 2009, the Guinness Book of World Records certified Kent as the world’s longest serving DJ. Kent, who is from the South Side, graduated from Hyde Park High School and started working on the air as a teenager before studying broadcasting at Northwestern University. The second and third events in the series will be jazz and salsa/Brazilianthemed, respectively. On Aug. 26, Kahil El’Zabar will bring his band and play alongside DJ Duane Powell and on Sept. 30, Bossa Tres, DJ Kimani Rashaad and Jose “Papo” Santiago will each play a set, preceded by salsa dancing lessons hosted by Roger Noel from 6 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. The restaurants at Harper Court will be open and paid parking will be available in the Harper Court garage as well as in the lot near Harper Avenue and surrounding streets. “A big part of my store is the event aspect and I’m really happy to be able to partner with the university to curate these three events for the community,” said Eric Williams, owner of The Silver Room, which recently relocated from Wicker Park to Hyde Park this past spring. In addition to being a retail business, The Silver Room doubles as an art gallery and community gathering space. For more information on 53rd Street events visit fiftythird.uchicago.edu.

The statement comes as Chicago schools are presented with individual budgets for fiscal year 2016. “We’re disappointed that Springfield has not partnered with us for a comprehensive solution to our budget crisis,” Ruiz said. “No one would argue that these are the budgets that we would like to be presenting, but they reflect the reality of where we are today; a budget deficit of more than $1 billion; the demands of a broken pension system; and a state education funding that is near last in the country.” Kenwood Academy will lose $387,757 in funding from FY 2015 to FY 2016. Hyde Park High School will lose $54,870. Murray Elementary will see its funding drop by $102,262. Ray and Shoesmith Elementary Schools have escaped the cuts and will see their funding increase by $18,147 and $65,311, respectively. Wendy Katten, Executive Director of Raise Your Hand, an organization of CPS parents across the city, claims that Chicago families are fearful of what’s to come. “Parents are in a total panic,” Katten said over the phone. “They don’t know how their schools are going to survive. The notion that cuts won’t hit the classrooms is completely false. I think parents are showing disgust and anger in elected officials.” Raise Your Hand has an active chapter in Hyde Park that has, among other efforts, loudly protested the closing of Dyett. The announcement arrives two years after CPS approved the largest school closure in Chicago’s history. In an effort to balance its budget, CPS closed just under 50 schools across Chicago. Hyde Parkers felt the effects of CPS’s sweeping cuts after Canter Elementary, 4959 S. Blackstone Ave., finished a phaseout in June 2014. In Washington Park, Walter H. Dyett High School, 555 E. 51st St., closed its doors after finishing a phase-out this past June. Ruiz cited the “broken pension system” as the reason CPS must now decide between funding classrooms and making pension payments. “We are trying to keep cuts from the classroom door, we are not able to keep them from the schools themselves,” Ruiz said. In a written statement, CPS revealed that it plans on unveiling a budget later this summer that relies on $500 million in pension reform from Springfield. According to the statement, if the state fails to partner on a solution, the district will be forced to turn to alternatives that will include a combination of unsustainable borrowing and additional cuts to balance the budget before the second half of the school year. Ginger Ostro, CPS CFO, pointed out that CPS funding has decreased every year since 2010. In spite of this, CPS will work to maintain its student-based budgeting rate from the 2015 fiscal year. The budgeting rate for high school students this year is unchanged, at See CPS on page 8 3 Book buddies Taniya Langston and Ann Audrain enjoy a story together in Nichols Park as part of a local mentoring program.

Saying “you were right” is one of them. I peaked pretty young. I started working as a journalist at the age of 18 on the South Side of Chicago, best known for Bad Boy Leroy Brown, Barack Obama, and, in many circles, David Axelrod. By the age of 21 I was the editor of the Hyde Park Herald newspaper. The newspaper was founded in 1882, and always claimed to be “Chicago’s Oldest Community Newspaper.” Hyde Park was a double whammy of the best and worst of Chicagostyle politics, intellectuals on every street, radicals and the looming influence of the University of Chicago. I was at the right place at the right time. The staff of the Herald was all young and enthusiastic. The grown up was our general manager Bo, who knew exactly what he was dealing with. He left all the editorial work to me, liking nothing better than to chomp his cigar, sell display ads and make fun of the Hyde Park establishment, such as they were. He was one of the few African American newspaper general managers in the business at that time. I didn’t drive and his favorite thing to do was to pick me up from my parents’ home on the then-all-white Southwest Side, honk his car horn and yell “where’s my woman?” I miss him. One day our political columnist, Tom, let us know he was leaving. I wrung my hands in despair. I was already working with our stable of Hyde Park freelance writers, covering all the hard news stories and researching and writing our investigative series every few months. I could write color stories on candidates but had no clue how to REALLY cover Chicago politics. We needed a political columnist and reporter and we needed one who knew what he or she was doing. Sort of on cue, Bo came into my office with a disheveled young man. He had wild black hair, kind eyes and an eagerness I recognized. I’d seen it in my mirror. He introduced me to our new political reporter, David Axelrod. David was willing to work for $15 a week. He was 19 and a student at the University of Chicago. I adored him from the start. During that time period I was dating a man who would eventually become my husband. He was the head of the Hyde Park Jewish Community Center. He was erudite, good looking and swept me off my feet. He seemed like my dream come true. Time passed and there were little warning signs about him that I chose to ignore. We wound up getting engaged. He was fired from the JCC and offered a job in Tulsa. David took my apartment and I headed south. David kept telling me he felt like something was off. He didn’t need to move into my apartment, I didn’t need to leave Chicago, and whatever was wrong could be solved. I didn’t listen. I was severely abused. I almost lost my life. Divorced, I moved to D.C. for a job and never left. I followed the trajectory of David’s career. Someday I would let him know he was right. Gaithersburg, Md., recently held its sixth annual book festival. I noticed David was on the roster of authors. He mentions the Herald in his book “Believer: My Forty Years in Politics.” I asked if there was any way I could spend some time with him. He said Special letter See DAVID on page 7 Editor’s note: Members of the Hyde Park Older Women’s League (OWL) and Chicago Hyde Park Village (CHPV) wrote this letter sharing their thoughts on this year’s White House Conference on Aging. The White House Conference on Aging is held every 10 years. This year it was held in Washington, D.C., on July 13 and streamed by computer connection to 600 sites throughout the country. Several Hyde Park representatives from the Hyde Park Older Women’s League (OWL) and Chicago Hyde Park Village (CHPV) joined about 30 to 35 others at a “viewing site” at University of Illinois Chicago (UIC), one of seven sites in Chicago. The most striking theme discussed at the conference was the population demographics that show there are now 10,000 people turning 65 years of age every day. This is expected to go on for the next 15 years. This many people entering retirement and living for another 20 to 30 years calls for a reexamination of what retirement really is going to be. Several specific issues were raised regarding caregivers for elderly disabled, financial planning for a secure retirement, intergenerational connections, elder justice and abuse and technology for the aging. Caregivers are often family members or low-paid staff workers, who receive little support, and those who are paid staff receive poverty-level income. As the elderly population balloons, attention needs to be paid to recognizing the importance of caregivers by giving them a living wage. Preparing for retirement is often not even on the radar of younger people, and there were several presenters discussing how to make a habit of putting even small amounts aside in an IRA. The important thing is to educate young adults to the power of compounded interest from early investments. The panel on intergenerational connections pointed out that families now often have multiple generations alive, providing leadership, support and guidance for each other. While this is true for families, we also need to think of ways of connecting non-related generations. One panelist noted how tutoring for elementary grades was one very successful way to use the knowledge and experience of older persons. Elder abuse, both physical and financial, happens to two out of every 10 senior citizens. Walgreens had a representative who talked about how their clinics are in a position to screen for abuse, and a bank representative talked about how he trained all his staff to spot potential fraud/abuse and coordinated activities with the local police. This banker said he created a “fraud award” for any of his staff who recognized seniors being defrauded and prevented it from happening. He was surprised that he was giving out weekly awards, but gratified at the misery they were heading off. The technology panel noted that when technology is at its best we don’t even think of it as technology and are certainly not afraid of using it. Microwaves and TVs are examples of routine technology. Computers and smart phones are often thought of as requiring a long learning curve, but the panel noted that engineers are working to make them as routine as the rest of technology we have gotten used to. Guest column STORIES from page 1 people felt like catharsis. “Storytelling helps me to vent or even laugh about the events in my life that may need to be picked apart or may be causing me some turmoil,” Malik said. This was the first “Grown Folks Stories” event at the new Hyde Park location for the Silver Room. “The event turned out to be really fun and there were people of all ages, coming from all parts of the city, to partake in the story telling,” said Silver Room owner Eric Williams. “The place was packed.” Although this is the first at the new location, this is the third “Grown Folks Stories” event that the Silver Room has hosted. Williams said he is excited to host a number of other performance spotlights in Hyde Park, Amara Enyia told travel stories. Spencer Bibbs including spoken word and slam poetry, in the near future.

Thanks to the intensive cleanup efforts, there are now individuals, families and organizations using the shelter nearly every weekend this summer. “There’s now a huge network of people from outside the community who come on the weekends” to use not only the pavilion, but also other park spaces that the JPAC has helped to maintain, says McCurry. Other improvements envisioned for the Iowa building and its immediate surroundings include a garden and a public art installation. Indira Johnson, who holds a masters degree from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, is, in addition to being an artist, a peace activist and nonviolence educator. One of her projects, titled Ten Thousand Ripples, involved the installation of one hundred half-buried Buddha heads in neighborhoods across the city, especially in areas characterized by violence. Efforts to place two of these statues at the pavilion, which was the site of a shooting last summer, are underway. In addition to restoring the pavilion, one of the next tasks on McCurry’s agenda is the repair of all the playgrounds in the area. These projects are not merely for aesthetic value. As McCurry says, “communities come together around these parks…communities come together where they feel safe,” adding “our parks really are where the neighborhood meets in all the best ways.” Now with functioning lights and clean floors, McCurry hopes the Iowa Pavilion will fulfill its potential as one such safe community space.

The event, which consisted of a press conference and rally, is the coalition’s latest attempt to keep a contract school out of the South Side neighborhood. The group has held a number of protests and sit-ins at CPS headquarters, the mayor’s office and Burns’ office, since the school board voted to phase out Dyett in 2012. = In response to community pressure, CPS issued a request for proposal (RFP) for a new high school in Dyett’s place, in December 2014. Currently, the school board is considering three proposals. Charles Campbell, the former principle of Dyett, has offered a proposal for a sportscentral high school named Washington Park Career Academy. Little Black Pearl, a non-profit centered in South Kenwood, introduced plans for a high school with an emphasis on art and design. The third proposal, backed by the Coalition to Revitalize Dyett, calls for an openenrollment, neighborhood school called Dyett Global Leadership and Green Technology High School. The coalition claims that this proposal boasts overwhelming support from the community and was the only proposition developed through engagement with local residents and neighborhood organizations.

Managed by a partnership between the Chicago Park District and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the ecological restoration aims to revitalize the park’s various habitats and populations of native species. The first phase, which involved the removal of dead and downed trees, the draining and clearing of the lagoon and the removal of invasive species, is complete. The second phase, the replenishment of native species, continues. According to a March project update published by the Army Corps of Engineers, the five-year project will ultimately include the planting of more than 400,000 types of trees, shrubs and grasses; the grading and stabilization of approximately eight acres of lagoon shorelines and the reintroduction of native fish communities; the paving of pathways and overlooks throughout the park and the removal and management of invasive and non-native plants. Fences blocking Wooded Isle and Osaka Garden went up in April and the areas are still closed. They will continue to be closed until fall, in order to give newly planted seeds a chance to grow and establish root systems undisturbed. A burn to clear out any trace of invasive species is also scheduled for the fall. [email protected] Washington Park stand is growing By SARAH PAN Herald Intern With temperatures above 90 degrees Colin Claffey and his dog “Pepper” find a cool way to beat the heat in the Nichols Park Fountain, 5300 S. Kenwood Ave., last week. Owen M. Lawson III The Washington Park Farm Stand, where neighborhood high school students grow all the plants and produce, has returned this summer. The Washington Park Farm Stand, which is sponsored by the Chicago Botanic Garden and Windy City Harvest Markets, is open from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. every Wednesday through Oct. 7 adjacent to Dyett High School, 555 E. 51st St. LINK and WIC/Senior Farmers Market Coupons are accepted. “I like the environment,” said Anqwnett Redmont, high school student and member of the vending crew, who was referred to the program through a job listing at her school. “I’ve been here for three seasons. I really like the peace, it’s very tranquil here.” High school student and farm crew leader Natasha Coleman said, “My favorite part is the harvesting. You know, getting to see the food coming in.” There are about 30 students and four crew leaders that tend the farm and operate the farmer’s market. Students maintain the garden from 9 a.m. to 1p.m. Monday through Friday. Within the garden are rows and rows of separated vegetable, herb and fruit plots. The students have their own compost and beehives as well. “It’s a lot,” Coleman said. “Some days are good for the plants, other days aren’t...Yeah, it’s a lot to do, but here, we try to do everything as organic as we can.” Redmont said, “ I’m definitely doing this again next year.” [email protected] HP area chief is now CPS ed chief Janice Jackson has been named the Chief Education Officer of Chicago Public Schools (CPS).

New curator picked at Logan Center By SARAH PAN Herald Intern 6th and 7th Grades still available. Call Admissions at 773-834-2865 Yesomi Umolu has been appointed as the new curator at the Logan Center for the Arts. Starting Aug. 3, Umolu will oversee exhibitions and work closely with the university and city to develop new art programs. “In Yesomi, we have found a curator who will advance the adventurous, collaborative and inquisitive approach that has characterized Logan Center Exhibitions since its founding,” said Bill Michel, executive director of the Logan Center. “I look forward to experiencing the inspiring and thought-provoking work she will bring to the Logan Center in the years ahead.” CPS from page 3 $5,444 per pupil. “The money follows the students, where we see decreases in enrollment, we will see decreases in funding,” said Ostro. CPS have already received $31 million less in this year’s allocations than they did at the same time last year. Before Umolu’s appointment as curator, she was assistant curator at the Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum at Michigan State University. She has also been a traveling university lecturer and speaker, and has been published in various catalogues and journals. “I look forward to continuing the ethos of experimentation and critical discourse around contemporary art and culture that the Logan Center Exhibitions program has established,” Umolu said. “I am thrilled at the prospect of collaborating with artists, scholars and community members who contribute so greatly to the Logan Center’s vibrant presence on campus and in the broader South Side cultural corridor.” [email protected] In a press release, Ruiz compared Chicago’s public schools with those of the surrounding districts. “No other district has to choose between making pension payments or funding educational programs,” said Ruiz. “Chicago children should not be treated as secondclass citizens in Illinois.

Randolph St. When: through July 26 Tickets: $25-$108 Phone: 800-775-2000 By ANNE SPISELMAN Theater Critic W hen I reviewed the pre-Broadway premiere of “Kinky Boots” at the Bank of America Theatre in 2012, I praised the concept, the music and lyrics by pop idol Cyndi Lauper, David Rockwell’s scenic design and many of the performances. But I thought that Harvey Fierstein’s book for the musical based on the 2005 film, which in turn was based on a true story, still needed a lot of work. Now “Kinky Boots” is back in a touring version at the Cadillac Palace Theatre, having racked up six 2013 Tony Awards in New York ranging from best musical and best score to best orchestrations and best sound design. And I still feel pretty much the same about it as I did the first time around, except that this production seems a bit sloppy. At least it did on opening night. For starters, the small orchestra wasn’t very good and at times was slightly out of sync with the performers. The sound mix was bad enough that I couldn’t make out close to half the lyrics from where I was sitting near the back of the main floor. This was especially unfortunate because Lauper’s songs further the plot, and several are quite witty, among them Lola’s “Sex Is in the Heel” and Lauren’s “The History of the Wrong Guys.” Most lean towards heartfelt ballads and anthems, such as Charlie’s “Soul of a Man,” Lola’s “Hold Me in Your Heart” and their beautiful duet “Not My Father’s Son.” That duet lays out the thematic underpinnings of the determinedly uplifting story set in Northampton, England. On the surface, the tale is about how Charlie Price (bland Steven Booth), who reluctantly takes over the failing family shoe factory when his father dies unexpectedly, turns it around by switching from conservative men’s shoes to stiletto-heeled fetish footwear for drag queens. He does this based on a suggestion from about-to-be-laid-off worker Lauren (perky Lindsay Nicole Chambers) that he find a niche market. The specific idea comes to him after a chance meeting in London with Lola (very spirited Kyle Taylor Parker), a drag queen who says that the women’s shoes and boots she and her performing “Angels” wear can’t support their weight, so the heels tend to break. Charlie enlists Lola as his designer, leading to predictable friction with the conservative town and factory workers. The heart of the matter, though, is how Charlie and Lola, a.k.a. Simon, learn to accept themselves and each other. More similar than they at first appear, both are very insecure men — and what it means to be a man gets a lot of play — who had issues with their fathers. Eventually they find they can take control of their lives and accomplish things they never expected. And, of course, they do this with each other’s help. Such a life-affirming scenario is a sure-fire success, as is anything with singing and dancing drag queens, not to mention working-class blokes who defy our expectations. But the evening opens with a dull number about how making shoes at Price & Son is “The Most Beautiful Thing in the World.” And the script is full of loose ends and inconsistencies that need to be fixed, even if they come from the movie (which I haven’t seen). For example, Charlie’s initial effort to bail out the factory involves going to London to ask the son of his father’s main competitor to buy a load of unsold shoes, but this character never appears again. Charlie’s Lindsey Gavel in The Hypocrites’ production of “All Our Tragic,” adapted and directed by Artistic Director Sean Graney. Evan Hanover self-absorbed, success-oriented girlfriend, Nicola (Grace Stockdale), wants him to abandon the shoe business for the life they planned in London before his father’s death, but she doesn’t bother to tell him until late in the game that the factory is in foreclosure and his father planned to sell it to a condo developer because he knew Charlie couldn’t run it. Naturally, they break up — something we’ve seen coming from the beginning — and he and Lauren, who’s morphed from chewing him out to falling in love, become a couple. The build up to the big climax is something of a muddle, too. Charlie’s plan to present the new boots at a major shoe show in Milan becomes a make-or-break deal for no compelling reason. However, the company doesn’t have enough money, and producing boots that are up to Charlie’s exacting standards causes myriad tensions between him and the employees, who walk out. Lola’s idea of using her Angels as models, rather than paying for professionals, causes a rift between the two men, and Charlie unleashes an insulting, racist, sexist tirade at him. Even if we try to chalk this up to nerves and fear of failure, the script offers no previous indication that Charlie is prejudiced in these ways, so the explosion doesn’t make sense — except as a device to set up the reconciliation and finale. That finale, alas, remains a letdown, even if it’s the first time we see the ensemble in glittering thigh-high kinky boot regalia. We’ve been led to believe that the Milan show is an elegant affair, but it turns out to look rather tacky. The feel-good closing song, “Raise You Up/Just Be,” gets the intended enthusiastic response, but I left the theater thinking that “Kinky Boots” could have been better. “All Our Tragic” HIGHLY RECOMMENDED Where: Den Theatre, 1329 N. Milwaukee Ave. When: through Aug. 16 Tickets: $125, available at thehypocrites.com The Hypocrites’ “All Our Tragic” should be required viewing for anyone interested in theater. After seeing the world premiere of artistic director Sean Graney’s mash-up of all 32 surviving Greek tragedies by Aeschylus, Sophocles and Euripides last year, I was blown away by the scope of the project, the way Graney infused the timeless stories with contemporary humor and the sheer stamina of everyone involved. Though no one knows what a Dionysian festival was See THEATER on page 10 10 THEATER Hyde Park Herald, July 22, 2015 from page 9 really like, sharing 12 hours of theater — including frequent breaks for meals and snacks - with strangers certainly created a communal feeling. I went to the reprise of “All Our Tragic” with a mixture of anticipation and hesitation. The length of the show didn’t bother me, but I worried that it wouldn’t have as much of an impact as the first time around. I needn’t have. If anything, the production is clearer and tighter than before. The staging seems a little smoother, and Alison Siple’s costumes are even more inventive. Graney said he made revisions to about a quarter of the script, especially in “Part 3: Patriotics,” the section focusing on the Trojan War. The program now has a page listing the parts — Prehistorics, Politics and Poetics, as well as Patriotics — the two acts within each part, and the plays covered in each act. There’s also a separate key to all the plays arranged by author. In addition, the three Odd-Jobs — Ann Delaney, Lauren Vogel and Kate CarsonGroner — who function as a kind of chorus, announcing the scenes and the years in which they take place — now write the characters names on a big blackboard and keep score of the deaths. They also punctuate the action with music, mostly old American folk songs that fit surprisingly well, plus a little opera. The configuration of the stage and the audience seating have been changed too, improving sight lines. Seating isn’t assigned, and in a departure from most theaters, people are encouraged to take different seats for different acts. While the absence of the Greek gods is one of the most glaring differences between Graney’s adaptation and the original plays, one of the themes that struck me most this time was the loss of innocence. The virtues of childhood are reflected in everything from the behavior of Herakles’ children to the props, such as the little book of heroes Herakles wants to be in and the teddy bear Orestes clings to. As the day and evening progress, human pride, greed, venality and revenge seem to prevail more and more. Even the best intentions lead to bad deeds, and the crimes escalate, ultimately to matricide. Indeed, many of the characters kill what they love most, be it Agamemnon sacrificing his daughter or an enraged Ajax slaughtering his sheep. The bodies pile up, along with a sense of waste. The intriguing — if drawn out — finale brings a sense of closure but not much in the way of redemption. Most of the ensemble remains the same, as do the standouts. They include Walter Briggs, whose goofily good-willed but clueless Herakles is simultaneously endearing and infuriating, and whose crossdressing Pentheus the Gaunt is very funny. Ryan Bourque is equally compelling as the noble Theseus and the weak, tea-loving Menelaus, who’s no match for Emily Casey’s Helen. Erin Barlow magically morphs from an incredibly well-grounded and admirable Antigone to airhead Hermione. In truth, though, everyone is terrific. My main quibble with “All Our Tragic” is some of the characters Graney left out or condensed into composites. Perhaps because I’m quite familiar with Sophocles’ “Antigone,” I miss her sister, Ismene, who provides balance in the play. The absence of King Priam from Troy seems very strange, as does the way Graney handles the rift between Agamemnon (Briggs) and Achilles Erin Barlow and John Taflan in The Hypocrites’ production of “All Our Tragic,” adapted and directed by Artistic Director Sean Graney. Evan Hanover (Breon Arzell). It causes Achilles to retreat to his tent for years, and the Greeks almost lose the war. But Graney turns it into an insider-y joke so as not to undercut the relationship between Achilles and Patroklos (John Taflan). One other little thing: The food, which is provided by Inspiration Kitchens, is vegetarian, and beverages aren’t included. I liked the brownies best. Oh, and if “All Our Tragic” returns again, you can be sure I’ll be there.

Lawson III July 22, 2015, Hyde Park Herald Leo Fall operetta falls short Where: Vittum Theater, 1012 N. Noble St. When: through Aug. 2 Tickets: chicagofolksoperetta.org By M.L. RANTALA Classical Music Critic L eo Fall (1873 – 1925) was one of the great composers of operettas. He got his early training at the Vienna Conservatory and once worked as a violinist in Franz Lehár’s orchestra. He wrote his first operetta in 1907. Chicago Folks Operetta, a plucky troupe which mounts forgotten operettas on shoestring budgets, has a history of splendid results not compromised by their relative lack of funds. This year it celebrates its tenth anniversary with Leo Fall’s 1922 operetta “Madame Pompadour,” a lighthearted look at the commoner who became not only the mistress of King Louis XV, but one of his most trusted advisors. Leo Fall’s music is engaging and frothy. He can conjure big production numbers as easily as intimate vignettes. The score for “Madame Pompadour” ingeniously shifts, like the colors and patterns of a kaleidoscope, keeping the story moving while establishing a variety of moods on the stage. Fall can turn out charming waltz tunes both beautiful and memorable, so much so I find it hard to believe that anyone left the Vittum Theater on opening night this past Friday without one of his melodies swirling playfully in the mind. “Oh, I’m Feeling so Naughty Today,” “Come with Me Dear” and “Madame Pompadour” were three waltzes in this operetta, each as lovely as the next. CFO music director Anthony Barrese leads a 21-piece orchestra, one increment bigger than the 20-member ensemble he led in last year’s “Ball at the Savoy” and the results are excellent. Last year’s intonation problems in the strings have been eliminated and the sound from the back of the stage (the Vittum Theater has no pit) is joyful. There were occasional coordination problems between the instruments and the singers, but these mismatches were always quickly rectified. The brass was notably perky and gleaming and the harp was particularly alluring. Last year Barrese put down his baton briefly to take up the accordion and this year he sported a guitar for the final verse of a humorous number. “Madame Pompadour” has strong singing, led by Kimberly McCord in the title role. She displays both strength and quickwittedness and has a charismatic stage presence. Her sound is particularly beautiful in quiet moments where even her highest notes rest gracefully on the ear. Her only misstep is at the end of the first act when she soars above the orchestra and ensemble in a rather sour money-note. But she returns for the rest of the opera in fine voice. Gerald Frantzen, the artistic director of CFO, takes on, as he so often does, the male lead. He’s handsome and creates a wholly likeable René, a man disguising himself in order to have some fun slumming in a disreputable tavern. Madame Pompadour’s companion Belotte is given wide-eyed life by Alison Kelly, who is also the general director of CFO. She sings with a light touch and a gorgeous smile. Erich Buchholz is the lower class poet Calicot who loves to diss not only Voltaire but Madame Pompadour herself. He is equally comfortable singing with bombast in the opening and with quivering fear when Calicot finds himself in dire trouble. Jonah Winston is an admirable King Louis XV who combines regal bearing with comedic confusion. The villains of the piece are a pair of cops played with delicious wickedness by Robert Morrissey and Matt Dyson. Rachel Olson and Nicholas Pulikowski round out the rest of the major players in the large cast of characters. There are powdered wigs galore in this production directed by Amy Hutchison which embraces the 18th century setting. The stage dressing is generally sparse and inoffensive, with just enough props and furniture to help move the story along. With great music and strong performances, this operetta has a lot going for it. But it also has one terrible weakness: the libretto is larded with repetitive and dull jokes and an incredibly silly (even for operetta) plot device to stop Madame Pompadour and René from doing something they ought not to do. The English translation is by Frantzen and Hersh Glagov, who have paired up for several CFO translations in the past. This is without question the weakest effort on their part I have experienced. Not being familiar with the original libretto, I can only guess that they have provided a translation which is rather too close to the original when, in fact, the tired and well-worn humor needs considerable revision and cuts to make it funny for a 21st century audience. Relying heavily, for instance, on sex jokes which would make only 14-year-old boys giggle explains why the opening night audience was so cold and quiet when it was clear that the producers were expecting big laughs which never materialized. However, if CFO treats opening night as merely a second dress rehearsal there is every chance that in a few performances the show will be improved by cuts and some strategic re-writes. For that reason, I can recommend this show because the music already makes it a winner.

July 22, 2015, Hyde Park Herald 15 16 Hyde Park Herald, July 22, 2015 Tom Huyck, 77 Don Willard, 73 Hyde Park resident Don Willard passed away peacefully in his home on July 12, 2015, surrounded by family. The glioblastoma brain tumor that took his life was discovered on May 3. Willard was born in Cambridge, Mass., in 1942. He served with the US Air Force, graduated from Boston College in 1968 and came to Hyde Park to study social psychology at the University of Chicago. He lived a full and happy life and was loved and admired for his strong spirit, optimism and humor. He was also appreciated by many for his intelligence and passion; he never committed to anything without giving it 100 percent and was selflessly dedicated to improving communities and the lives of others. In his personal life, his moral compass was very strong, and ethical values drove his every life choice. He left academia in the 1970s to become one of the earliest stay-at-home dads. However, he remained a lifelong scholar, enriched by the university community. Willard’s love for children was a primary focus in his life, and he influenced the lives of thousands through his dedication. As coach of the South Side Stars swim team, Willard grew a small team of 25 swimmers into a nationally recognized team of more than 150, all along encouraging young people to achieve their personal best. His efforts led to a community of strong, confident swimmers, many of whom went on to become part of champion teams at Kenwood Academy. For his own personal fitness and wellbeing Willard maintained a daily routine at Ratner Gym from its opening and Call for Open House developed friendships with a large group of “regulars.” More recently, he enhanced his joy of swimming by his involvement in a group known locally as the Point swimmers and swam competitively for the first time at age 70 in Chicago’s Big Don Willard Shoulders Open Water Swim Classic. The time he spent with those two communities nourished him greatly. For years Willard volunteered much of his time in service of William H. Ray School, assisting in his grandsons’ classrooms and on field trips, serving as the community representative to the Local School Council, and on the Gardening, School Improvement and Safety committees. He also volunteered regularly unloading the food truck for the Hyde Park and Kenwood Food Pantry. Willard is survived by Barbara, his wife of 50 years; his daughters Meredith (Cris Barrett), Robin (Bevis Pardee); his son Chris (Courtney Prokopas); his grandsons Gabriel, Luke and Liam Barrett, and Auden and Ashleigh Pardee; his sister Ellen; his brother Bill and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins and friends. A celebration of Willards’s life will be held at the Hyde Park Union Church, 5600 S. Woodlawn Ave., from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m., Sunday, Aug. 2. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be mailed to “Friends of Ray,” at Ray School, 5631 S. Kimbark Ave., Chicago, IL 60637. Long-time Hyde Park resident and lawyer, William Thomas “Tom” Huyck passed away peacefully in his sleep July 10 after a long illness. He was 77. Huyck was born in Des Moines, Iowa, and attended Dartmouth College before becoming a graduate of the University of Chicago Law School. He practiced law in Chicago for almost 50 years, in both public and private sectors. Huyck was a prosecutor for both the U.S. Department of Justice and the U.S. Attorney’s office before going into private practice. In 1984, Huyck successfully argued the case Liparota v. United States before the Supreme Court. His clients appreciated his determination, kindness and skill. Huyck was also passionate about civil justice, particularly civil and women’s rights. His eloquent language made him an early and strong advocate for justice of all people. Huyck met his wife of 54 years, Margaret, while the pair were in high school. They started dating in college while she was attending Vassar. In 1961, they both moved to Hyde Park to attend the University of Chicago, him for a law degree and her for a DYETT from page 6 spoke on the coalition’s willingness to work with community organizations. “The Coalition to Revitalize Dyett actually came to Hyde Park and Bronzeville meetings,” Hamilton said. “The mayor and the alderman need to stand with us.” Jayme Robinson, a spokesperson for the Kenwood-Oakland Community Organization - a member group of the Coalition to Revitalize Dyett - contrasted the school reform efforts of South Side parents with those on the North Side of Chicago. “While white, North Side parents are heard, our voices are thrown to the wayside,” Robinson said. “This is about disinvestment in Black and brown students.” Marc Kaplan, chairman of Northside Action for Justice, echoed Robinson’s claims. “White, middle-class parents have gotten immediate action from the board,” Kaplan said. “The Noble Charter school proposal was killed two to three weeks after it was submitted.” Robinson and Kaplan’s assertions are in reference to the Uptown neighborhood’s successful campaign against Noble Academy’s proposal to move a charter school onto Irving Park Road. Noble Academy withdrew its proposal in June, after meeting fierce opposition from elected officials and the public. Phillip Cantor, a CPS science teacher of 12 years and member of Teachers for Social Justice, attended Tuesday’s event because he believes that Dyett Global Leadership and Green Technology High School could function as a model for future community schools. “We think kids, wherever they are, deserve good schools,” Cantor said. “But the way that CPS has been restructuring has doctorate in psychology. They have lived here ever since. Huyck was actively involved in the arts, and loved music in particular. He was often at the theater or at concerts, and served on the boards of the Chicago Children’s Choir and Chicago a Tom Huyck capella. He also loved biking, and often biked to work downtown. Huyck loved to travel and give visitors tours of the city. Huyck is survived by his loving wife Margaret, daughters Liz and Karen, granddaughter Madeline and countless friends and family who will miss his gentle spirit and unfailing sense of humor. There will be a memorial service at 1 p.m. Aug. 22, at the First Unitarian Church, 5650 S. Woodlawn Ave. His family asks that instead of flowers, contributions to American Civil Liberties Union or the Chicago Children’s Choir are made in Huyck’s name. been to redistribute resources to wealthier neighborhoods.” Jitu Brown, an education organizer with the Kenwood-Oakland Community Organization, argued that the fight for Dyett High School has implications beyond the Bronzeville neighborhood. “This is bigger than Dyett,” Brown explained. “This is about who deserves public services. Parents in affluent communities have not had to advocate as much as we do.” Brown went on to denounce the privatization of Chicago’s public schools. “We want to revitalize public education in Chicago,” Brown said. “That’s not going to happen with charter and contract schools where the goal is profit in the marketplace.” Brown contends that the issue of privatization marks a strong divide between Burns and the Coalition to Revitalize Dyett. “Our issue with Burns is that he has no interest in representing low-income families,” Brown said. “His policy has been to push privatization. We have a fundamental disagreement.” Prentice Butler, director of constituent services for Burns, said, “This is an open RFP process. Anyone who wants to submit a school proposal may do that.” In response to the coalition’s criticisms, CPS spokesperson Bill McCaffrey issued the following written statement: “Chicago Public Schools is committed to a community driven process that will identify a high-quality education option for the former Dyett site. We continue to review applications garnered by the 2014 RFP, and look forward to receiving further feedback at the upcoming community hearing to inform a decision that will best serve the students and families in this community.” The Board of Education will decide on a proposal by Aug. 26. The next community hearing for the three proposals will take place Aug. 10 at the CPS Loop office, 42 W. Madison St. [email protected] For Breaking Community News As It Happens...We Make It Easy...
