“Frost/Nixon” Philadelphia Premiere at New City Stage Company New City Stage Company presents their second show of the 2013-2014 Season “Frost/Nixon,” written by Peter Morgan, starring Dan Olmstead as Richard Nixon and Russ Widdall as David Frost. A briskly entertaining true account of the 1977 face-off between British talk show host David Frost and recently resigned president Richard Nixon. Determined to resurrect his career, Frost risks everything on a series of in-depth interviews in order to extract an apology from Nixon for the conflict in Vietnam and Watergate scandal. The cagey Nixon, however, is equally bent on redeeming himself in his nation’s eyes. In the television age, image is king, and both men are desperate to outtalk and upstage each other as the cameras roll. The result is the interview that sealed a president’s legacy. The show runs from December 5 - January 5 at the Adrienne Theatre Main Stage. Tickets can be purchased by visiting www.NewCityStage.org or calling 215-563-7500.

Morris Arboretum’s Weekday Lecture Series Concludes in December with Keith Thomson orris Arboretum’s “Connections Beyond Our Gardens – Talks on People, Plants and Place” continues to present talks that are about more than gardening, all with a theme of connecting us to our natural, green world. In November, attendees heard a lecture from Harris Steinberg of PennPraxis who spoke about visions for urban design in Philadelphia. On Wednesday, December 4 at 3 p.m., attendees will learn about Thomas Jefferson and his passion for Nature from Keith Stewart Thomson, the American Philosophical Society’s Executive Officer. Thomas Jefferson once wrote to a friend that politics was his “duty,” but natural history was his “passion.” Despite his demanding public life, Jefferson somehow had time to be one of America’s first serious students of fossils, botany, climate, geology, and anthropology, becoming a leading American scientific intellectual of his time. Morris Arboretum’s Connections Beyond Our Garden speaker, author Keith Thomson will introduce attendees to Jefferson’s fascinating world, exploring the third president’s passion for natural history, and highlighting how it related to everything he did—as a farmer, as a philosopher, and as a citizen. Author of more than a dozen books on evolution, paleontology, and the history of science, in recent years Thomson has focused more on writing for a popular audience. Thomson is currently Executive Officer of the American Philosophical Society, the oldest learned society in the United States, founded in 1743 by Benjamin Franklin. He is also emeritus professor of natural history at the University of Oxford and was President of Philadelphia’s Academy of Natural Sciences. Keith Stewart Thomson graduated from the University of Birmingham (UK) in 1960 and then earned a Ph.D. in Biology from Harvard University in 1963. His dissertation was on the evolution of air-breathing at the transition between fishes and the first land animals. His recent books include: The Watch on the Heath (Harper-
M
Collins, published in the USA as Before Darwin by Yale University Press) and Fossils: a Very Short Introduction (Oxford University Press), both in 2005; The Legacy of the Mastodon (Yale University Press, 2008); A Passion for Nature: Thomas Jefferson and Natural History (University of North Carolina Press for the Thomas Jefferson Memorial Foundation, 2008); and The Young Charles Darwin (Yale University Press, 2009) and Jefferson’s Shadow: the Story of his Science (Yale University Press, 2012). Thomson Morris Arboretum’s “Connections Beyond Our Gardens – Talks on People, Plants and Place” continues to present talks that are about more than gardening, all with a theme of connecting us to our natural, green world. On Wednesday, December 4 at 3 p.m., attendees will learn about Thomas Jefferson and his passion for Nature from Keith Stewart Thomson, the American Philosophical Society’s Executive Officer. Photo/courtesy Keith Thomson also has a regular column, “Marginalia,” in the magazine American Scientist. The “Connections Beyond Our Garden” lectures are held at Morris Arboretum’s Widener Visitor Center at 3 p.m. A reception with refreshments will follow Keith Thomson’s talk. The cost for each lecture is $15 for Arboretum members and $20 for non-members, which includes admission to the garden. Advanced registration and payment are required.

P IG I RON T HEATRE C OMPANY B RINGS B ACK “T WELFTH N IGHT , OR W HAT Y OU W ILL ” ig Iron Theatre Company’s raucous, spirited “Twelfth Night, or What You Will” returns to Philadelphia for a threeweek holiday engagement at FringeArts’ new waterfront theater, December 4 - 22, 2013. Buoyed by live Balkan-inspired music performed by members of the West Philadelphia Orchestra, Pig Iron’s exuberant staging of the Shakespeare comedy breathes new life into the Bard’s classic script with equal measures of absurdity and heart. Tickets to “Twelfth Night, or What You Will” are available now by calling 215-413-1318 or visiting fringearts.ticketleap.com. Dueling musicians, wine-drenched debauchery, depressive noblemen, idiots and veteran jesters, religious zealots and erotic misunderstandings are mixed into a new visual and aural approach to Shakespeare, using Pig Iron’s highly physical performance style to embrace one of the Bard’s most wicked plots. Replete with practical jokes, gender confusion and mistaken identity, this much-loved production exploits Shakespeare’s wordplay with funny, unpredictable immediacy. Says director Dan Rothenberg, “This is not an intervention into expectations about Shakespeare — this is an attempt to bring everything Pig Iron has learned about theater from a decade and a half of creating original work to bear on the problem of turning Shakespearean text into clear, vibrant

Actually, there were two groups – the “Old Heads” and the “Young Boys” – teaching each other and learning from one another. During the 70s and 80s, they saw each other at parties and would sing together to everyone's enjoyment. In 1993, they got together at the urging of Gene Volpe, an original “Young Boy,” to sing on stage at the recently started Lansdowne Folk Club. The group has been together for 20 years and has performed in the Philadelphia and South Jersey area. Their CD is titled “It Ain’t Easy” is available on the band’s website http://www.53woodland.com. Opening the night will be David Jacobs-Strain and Bob Beach. David is a slide guitarist and modern roots singer-songwriter whose musical journey begins in the wellspring of Delta blues but ranges far afield from there. In his mid-twenties, he already channels age-old wisdom and heartache with such dexterity, energy, and passion that you feel good, even about feeling bad. Learn about David at http://www.davidjacobsstrain.com. Bob Beach has been a working professional musician for more than 40 years, adding harmonica, flute and vocals to a broad scope of genres. A native Philadelphian, Bob has been a vital part of the local music scene and is a side man for local and national acts. Check out his music at http://www.myspace.com/bobbeach. The Lansdowne Folk Club, founded in 1993, is a 501(c) (3) all volunteer non-profit corporation dedicated to presenting folk, acoustic and blues music. Friend the club on Facebook Lansdowne Folk Club.

Tredyffrin Public Library will present two performances of Dorothy Heiderstadt’s “The Girl from the Sea” on Sunday, December 8, 1 p.m. and 4 p.m., at the library, 582 Upper Gulph Road, Strafford. In this charming play, performed by a cast of student actors from Cones toga High School, a curious sea princess named Undine creates a storm in order to follow a fishing boat and the family inside. When the family, thinking she is just a girl full of stories, reluctantly takes her in, the magic she performs raises their suspicion. Find out if the family can overcome their fears, and if love can prevail in this mythic tale of the sea. “The Girl from the Sea” can be enjoyed by all ages. Tickets are $3, and available at the library. For information, visit www.tredyffrinlibraries.org or call 610-688-7092, ext. 200.

It all began rather innocently on a cold November morning six years ago when Madi Resnic (then just nine years old) watched from the sidelines seeing runners peeling off and discarding layers of clothes during the warmup session. “I asked myself why? I saw perfectly good clothes being hauled away in sanitation trucks. At school we are taught social responsibility. I thought what an opportunity to keep the clothes out of a landfill and help others at the same time.” The father-daughter team is thinking big, including plans to help with disaster relief, a fleet of electric trucks, corporate partnerships and a new goal, collecting one million articles of clothing: all this because a little girl wondered why.

Just Relax Massage Center’s Owner Catches Her Dream ourteen years has flown by like the twinkling of her eyes for Jean Marie Di Dominic, owner of Just Relax Massage Center. She was fifty years old before she opened her first office in Wynnewood, PA—and now ten years later has embarked on her second chapter in Narberth, PA. Someone once asked her at age twenty three, that if she could do anything she wanted with her career, what would she do? Something in alternative health, maybe a midwife was her answer. Dreams of establishing an alternative health center that would offer an array of health solutions often kept her awake at night. She explored ideas of what could be represented & practiced at her center—Acupressure, Chinese herbal medicine, a variety of massage therapies, Reflexology, Ayurvedic medicine, Neuromuscular & cranial sacral therapies and many many other alternatives for healing. Plus, a small health food store with with a healthy menu would all be a part of her health center! However, the harsh realities of life would put her dreams on hold for another twenty five years! Surviving divorce and and many moves from Chicago to Florida and finally to Philadelphia, her dream was always on the back burner of her heart. The restaurant industry and a myriad of part time jobs helped to make ends meet. It took time, but fortunately all the stars aligned for her to find her life’s calling as a massage therapist. Healing and caring for people on many levels has always been in her DNA, and as the years have unfolded she has grown in her understanding of what it takes to restore the body and rejuvenate the soul. She believes that the body has many layers, and in order for the innate wisdom and power of the body to rebuild itself, she must address at least two to three of these layers (ie: muscular, neurological, and soft tissue) to activate that marvelous integrated Power that everyone has living within themselves. Creating “Me” time she believes is crucial for the healing to begin in each overburdened, tired or injured life. And, Jean Marie Di Dominic has created the perfect Center to do just that! Warm and inviting, Just Relax Massage Center offers a variety of massages such as Deep Tissue for those tired aching muscles; Swedish for an overall relaxing affect; cranial sacral & neuromuscular to quiet your nervous system; Reflexology for those hard working feet to feel new again or—just ask for her Blended intuitive massage which blends all of these techniques for the perfect personalized massage session. For those repetitive stress injuries and arthritic aches or old athletic injuries she offers The Rossiter System of Stretching which puts space back into the system allowing discs to have more room, nerves to relax and joints to breathe again!

One Actor Performs All Roles in “A Christmas Carol” Continued from front page
the one most adored by fans – was his “A Christmas Carol.” It was from this reading tour that Langdon took inspiration for his interpretation of the story. “Everyone from Jim Carrey and Patrick Stewart to The Muppets has had a go at delivering this timeless tale, yet it continues to be relevant today. It gets to the heart and soul of the holidays with a message that is universal,” says Langdon. “It has been a dream of mine for years to bring this to the stage this unique adaptation which will bring the story to life in a whole new way.” Langdon will perform his version of “A Christmas Carol” Saturdays at 11 a.m. and Sundays at 7 p.m. through December 22. Tickets are a very family friendly $15 per person. All Family, Youth, and Broadway Series shows at The Media Theatre are produced by Media Music Theatre Company. The Media Theatre is located at 104 State St. in Media. Call 610 891-0100 or online visit www.mediatheatre.org.

rated culture, and asks what the age-old story of Christmas might look like today. Meet Mr. and Mrs. Harris, the cash-strapped innkeepers of The Speckled Partridge. They have cleared their reservation books for a quiet Christmas. But when two young women – one of them very famous, and very pregnant – appear through a snowstorm, desperate for a place to stay, the relaxing holiday quickly begins to unravel. In short order the innkeepers are juggling a band of sarcastic carolers; a self-absorbed reporter; a fundamentalist carpenter; a washed-out Idol winner, and a big-shot TV producer – along with their own pseudo-feminist daughter – all fighting off a blizzard to take advantage of an innocent single mother on her way to Bethlehem. But how innocent is she, really? “We’ve developed such a fascination with the cult of celebrity, and there’s now a virtual imperative to put our entire lives online,” Piven says, “I thought it would be fun to re-imagine such a traditional story using modern themes: not only social media but also the housing crisis, reality television, and same sex marriage. If the Nativity is a story for all time, then No Reservations is definitely a story for our times.” No Reservations runs November 26 through December 15, with a preview night on Tuesday, November 26 and opening night on Friday, November 29, 2013. Tickets are $18 to $25 and are available online at www.brownpapertickets.com/event/449685. Performances take place at The Skybox @ The Adrienne Theater, 2030 Sansom Street, 3rd Floor, in Center City, Philadelphia. For information, call 267-225-7175, follow @no_reservations on Twitter and like No Reservations The Play on Facebook. The Philadelphia Non-Profit Advertising Agency (PNAA) is producer of the show. PNAA, a local foundation based in West Parkside, supports arts and culture initiatives in the Delaware Valley, with the goal of promoting and developing promising young artists and their work, in tandem with the promotion of the city as a nurturing and supportive environment for unfettered creative expression. PNAA was instrumental in the development of the Philadelphia Stars Negro League Memorial Park at Belmont and Parkside Avenues, which includes a statue by local sculptor Phil Sumpter. PNAA has also commissioned work by many local artists, among them Paris Stancil and Anthony Vega. PNAA, a 501 (c)(3) nonprofit organization, has been involved in the art world since 1999.
