NAKED BODIES IN SIN CITY

Naked bodies in Las Vegas are nothing new. With artificial enhancements showcasing their most private parts, the exhibition should blend into the city. Instead, it stands out.

Bodies The Exhibition showcases 21 whole-body specimens and more than 260 organs and partial body specimens. The displays have been sellouts in major cities around the world. ( See Broadway To Vegas column of April 23, 2006 ) However, putting such a showcase in the Entertainment Capital of the World at first seems off-putting. Catch the naked, dead people before crapping out in the casino.

Rather than a carnival freak show, this is an exhibition that is a sensitive, work of art. With educational relevance for all ages, this display of real human specimens immerses visitors in the complexities of the human body, telling us the amazing story of ourselves with reverence and understanding.

The day Broadway To Vegas attended, the Exhibition had a good crowd composed of all ages and several nationalities. At least five languages were heard as grown-ups explained various aspects of what they were viewing to children. Several adults were seen taking notes.

Refined, tasteful, brilliantly executed. Slides of human tissue are so gorgeously presented that they look like wall hangings in a modern art museum.

In addition to providing an up-close look inside our skeletal, muscular, respiratory, and circulatory systems the Exhibition encourages healthy lifestyle choices by serving as a wake-up call.

Authentic human specimens illustrate the damage caused to organs by over-eating and lack of exercise. A healthy lung is featured next to a black lung ravaged by smoking in a vivid comparison more powerful than any textbook image.

Accompanying diseased lungs are information how many minutes each cigarette shortens a life. Nearby is a Lucite container with an encouraging message to discard cigarettes and begin a personal no smoking life style. The container is about one- fourth full.

A sneeze can exceed the speed of 100 mph.
Every person has a unique tongue print.
Every time you lick a stamp you consume 1/10 of a calorie.
A cough releases an explosive charge of air that exceeds up to 60 mph.
An average human drinks about 15,000 gallons of water in a lifetime.
According to German researchers, the risk of a heart attack is greater on Monday than any other day of the week.
By age 60, most people have lost half of their taste buds.
Each square inch of human skin consists of twenty feet of blood vessels.

Human bodies, male and female of all sizes are in poses - orchestra conductor, tennis and basketball players - that demonstrate a particular category - muscles, nerves, internal organs.

It isn't creepy. It's compelling.

Before entering a room that contains fetuses, miscarried due to deformities, a cautionary sign explains what is about the be viewed and offers an alternate route for those who prefer to by pass what is a tremendously educational and important section.

While much as been written about how the corpses are prepared for exhibition, critics should study the history of how civilizations have disposed of their dead before leveling criticism. The displays and accompanying explanations are exemplary. The exhibition builds, in both stature of human form and dramatic impact, as the customer moves from room to room in a self guided tour that can be augmented with audio headsets.

Housed in the Tropicana Hotel, adjacent to The Titanic Exhibition - both the works of the same company - tickets can be purchased for one or discounts for a dual purchase. This exhibit may not be why people come to Las Vegas, but it is definitely one of the sites to see.

NORMAN MAILER TAKES ON AMERICA EXHIBIT

Photo by Rou DeCarava

An exhibit that spans the full range of Norman Mailer's career examined in the context of the cultural and historical events that sparked his imagination.

Featuring more than 200 items-from prize-winning short stories written at Harvard to his most recent works, Why Are We At War? and The Big Empty - the exhibition runs from Sept. 5 to Dec. 31 at the Harry Ransom Center at The University of Texas at Austin.

The exhibition places Mailer and his works in a political and cultural context, and traces the central role he has played in our awareness and understanding of what critic Morris Dickstein calls the "shocks of history, politics and contemporary life" that shaped the latter half of the 20th century and continue to unsettle the 21st.

Paul Theroux has described the literary world of the two decades following World War II as "an age when writers were powerful, priest-like, remote and elusive. They were risk takers and romantics, lovably disreputable, seldom interviewed but often whispered about."

Not so Norman Mailer, who was a key figure in the transformation of the author into public figure-even celebrity. No other writer more fully captures the high tensions of an age shadowed by the threat of nuclear warfare and dominated by tensions over literary censorship, loyalty oaths, civil rights, social welfare programs and the Vietnam War.

J. Michael Lennon, a Norman Mailer authority, has argued that Mailer "can lay fair claim to being the chief narrative chronicler and interpreter" of post-War America. He cites "a career of length and achievement, full of awards and fights, mistakes and masterpieces" in which Mailer "has challenged, angered, and amazed generations of readers." Lennon concludes, "Perhaps no life in modern American literature has been at once so brilliant, varied, controversial, public, provocative and misunderstood."

A variety of public programs complement the exhibition, including the sixth Fleur Cowles Flair Symposium, "The Sense of Our Time: Norman Mailer and America in Conflict," Nov. 9-11. Mailer's works and ideas will be the starting points for speakers at the symposium to explore the cultural conflicts that confronted post-World War II America, from civil rights to war, from sexual politics to the rise of "New Journalism." The symposium includes plenary sessions and panels of scholars, professional writers and critics. A Mailer vs. Hollywood film series features films written and directed by Mailer, including Beyond the Law (1968), Wild 90 (1968) and Tough Guys Don't Dance (1986).

PRINCETON UNIVERSITY CELEBRATES RECEIVING MAJOR IRISH THEATER COLLECTION

Sean O'Casey - A chronic eye disease forced him to stay away from school. He was idealist with a strong sense of justice.

A symposium and theater performances are planned for an October celebration at Princeton to celebrate the acquisition of a major Irish theater collection.

An aged manuscript of a classic Irish play, long thought lost even by the renowned playwright who wrote it, is the gem of a momentous collection of Irish theater donated by 1953 alumnus Leonard L. Milberg.

The unpublished play The Cooing of Doves by Sean O'Casey is one of more than 1,000 plays, photographs, playbills and other works documenting the past 160 years of Irish theater, all given to the University in honor of poet and professor Paul Muldoon. To celebrate the opening of the collection, the University will hold a symposium in October, with appearances by Oscar-nominated actor Stephen Rea, celebrated Irish actors Gabriel Byrne and Fiona Shaw, Tony-award winning director Garry Hynes and others.

There is ample cause for celebration because Princeton's new Irish theater collection may be unequalled by that of any other educational institution in the world, said Milberg, a noted art collector who has donated three other major literary collections to Princeton. This latest establishes the University as a leading resource for research and scholarship about the Irish stage.

Dion Boucicault Irish Playwright, Actor, Producer

"Whenever I do a collection, it's important to me that it be a significant collection in its field," said Milberg, who donated a collection of modern American poetry to the University in 1988, a collection of Irish poetry in 1994 and an unprecedented collection of Jewish American writers in 2001.

"For Irish theater, I don't think there is anything else like this, especially outside of Ireland," Milberg said of his most recent donation. "I know people may be interested in a lot of other things, but if it's Irish theater, they'll call Princeton."

The new Milberg Irish Theater Collection begins in the mid 19th century and includes works by Dion Boucicault, whose "sensation" dramas gained acclaim on both sides of the Atlantic;" John Millington Synge, who founded Ireland's national theater, the Abbey Theatre, in 1904 with poet William Butler Yeats and author Lady Gregory; well established playwrights like Samuel Beckett, Brian Friel and Tom Murphy; and contemporary writers including Conall Morrison and Graham Reid, in addition to younger writers, such as Marina Carr, Martin McDonagh and Conor McPherson. Highlighting the collection are the original playbill for the 1956 production of The Quare Fellow by Brendan Behan, the 1952 first edition of Samuel Beckett's En attendant Godot (Waiting for Godot), and the O'Casey manuscript.

From Oct. 13 to Oct. 15, an international gathering of theater aficionados and scholars will be on campus for a series of events revolving around the opening of a special exhibition of the collection to be hosted by the Princeton University Library, running through April 22.

An academic conference to highlight the exhibition will include actors Byrne and Rea in lectures, readings and performances. It will open Oct. 13 with a lecture by Joe Dowling, a former artistic director of the Abbey Theatre in Dublin and the current artistic director of the Guthrie Theater in Minneapolis. Coinciding with the symposium will be McCarter Theatre's production of Translations, directed by Garry Hynes and considered by many to be playwright Brian Friel's theatrical masterpiece. The production will open Oct. 13, and in November, students in the University's theater and dance program will present John Millington Synge's Irish drama The Playboy of the Western World.

SPREADING THE WORD

MICKY DOLENZ of the Monkees - currently appearing in Pippin at the Goodspeed Opera House takes part in a book signing on Tuesday, September 5 in Old Saybrook, CN and in Waterford CN on Tuesday, September 12.

His first children's book Gakky Two-Feet with illustrations by David Clark was released May 18th.

Gak is the only hominidee in his tribe who walks on two feet instead of on all fours, and all his pals tease him with the nickname Gakky Two-Feet. He feels like he'll never fit in, but when his unique way of walking allows him to stand tall and save his friends from a hungry lion, Gak's tribe starts to see him in a whole new light.

The other Dolenz tome to which the former monkee will sign his moniker is Rock 'n Rollin' Trivia

Starting from rock's origins as swampland blues music until its first recordings in 1955; from Bill Haley and Elvis in America to The Beatles and The Rolling Stones from England; from pin-up teen idols to punk-rock renegades; from mono to stereo; from vinyl to iPod; it's all here in one big collection of over 900 questions hand-picked by Micky himself to tease and please any rock 'n roll fan anywhere.

Unlike other trivia books that simply supply the answers to the questions, this book includes interesting information along with each answer - so you'll actually learn as you play. Furthermore, the answers are cleverly formatted in a way that allows the reader to play alone or with others.

In addition to book signings, Micky appears as Charlemange in Pippin. The show at the Goodspeed Opera House in East Haddam, CT runs through September 24th. After that it will begin a national tour.

ARETHA FRANKLIN

Aretha Franklin

the undisputed Queen of Soul, will receive the United Negro College Fund's prestigious Award of Excellence on its annual television special, An Evening of Stars.

Franklin, 64, will be the first female artist to receive the award. Previous honorees have been Lou Rawls (2004), Quincy Jones (2005) and Stevie Wonder (2006). The three-hour concert tribute will be taped at the Kodak Theater in Hollywood, Calif. on Sept. 8 and 9, and will air nationwide in late January 2007.

Franklin will receive the honor for her longstanding and generous support of the UNCF’s mission to provide deserving students with access to higher education, as well as for her well-known activism and philanthropy on behalf of numerous other causes.

"UNCF is delighted to show Aretha Franklin some of the R-E-S-P-E-C-T that she has shown us for so many years," said Michael L. Lomax, president and CEO of UNCF. "She has honored us so often with her appearances on An Evening of Stars and her support of our mission of education. Now it is our turn to honor her by giving her our Award of Excellence. As an artist, an entertainer, and a citizen, her career has established a standard of excellence that exemplifies the educational distinction to which our member colleges are dedicated and to which they hold their students."

As one of the most revered artists in the music industry, Franklin has earned 17 Grammy awards, 17 No. 1 R&B singles, a Presidential Medal of Freedom, a Kennedy Center Honor, a National Medal of Arts, and was the first woman to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Her long list of hits includes Chain of Fools, You Make Me Feel (Like a Natural Woman), Think, Baby I Love You, The House That Jack Built, and of course Respect her most famous hit song, which became a symbol of both feminine and black pride in the 1960s. Franklin’s last studio album, So Damn Happy, was released to critical acclaim in 2005. Her debut release on her very own Aretha Records, A Woman Falling Out of Love, is currently being readied for a January 2007 release date.

An Evening of Stars, formerly The Lou Rawls Parade of Stars, first aired in 1979, and since that time has become one of the longest running and most successful televised events in U.S. history. Lou Rawls, who passed away in January 2006, helped raise more than $200 million for the UNCF to supplement the cost of higher education for scholarship recipients and member institutions.

As elemental and awesome as any storm found in nature.

In the Albert Theater of the Goodman in Chicago September 9 - October 15.

TWO ROOMS Lee Blessing's gripping political drama about an American professor held hostage by terrorists in Beirut is also a heart-breaking love story, as his wife back home grows weary of petitioning through official channels for his release.

Directed by Jamie Wollrab. With Dominic Hoffman, Susanna Hall, Greta Seacat and Caleb Moody. Music by MC Rai.
