    T heatre Horizon begins its 2010/2011 Seasonwith the Tony Award winning musical, The25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee withbook by Rachel Sheinkin and music and lyrics byWilliam Finn. Berwyn native and two-time Barry-more Award winner Jennie Eisenhower leads aPhiladelphia-area ensemble in this hilarious musi-cal about overachievers angst.

    This one-act musical follows six adolescent odd -balls in their quest to become champion spellersat a competitive spelling bee run by the fictionalRona Peretti, an enthusiastic former championand Hostess of the Bee.

    At each performance of Spelling Bee, four vol-unteer audience members are chosen as contes-tants at the Bee and invited onstage. Ms. Eisen-hower, in the lead role of teacher Rona Peretti,will direct the Bee, singing her way through show-

    stoppers like My Favorite Moment of the Beeand The I Love You Song. Beneath the riotouslyfunny songs, Spelling Bee explores the pressureof competition and the struggle to discover onesown identity. The quirky pubescent contestantslearn that winning isnt everything and losingdoesnt necessarily make you a loser.

    After seeing the musical on Broadway, Theatre

    Horizon Founder and Ar tistic Director MatthewDecker knew it was the perfect match for TheatreHorizons audience. Spelling Bee fulfills TheaHorizons mission of creating a community of artists and audiences through theatre, says Decker.By welcoming these audience members on stage,were creating a instant connection between theactors and the audience. Each night these audi-ence members will be asked to sing, dance, and

    act on the spot. It will be thrilling to watch.Winner of two Tony Awards, Spelling Bee is ba

    upon C-R-E-P-U-S-C-U-L-E, an original improvisational play created by Rebecca Feldman. Tony

    Award winning composer William Finn ( Falset A New Brain ) and book writer Rachel Sheinkinadapted the play, which was workshopped anddeveloped at the Barrington Stage Company inMassachusettes, then moved Off-Broadway andsubsequently premiered on Broadway in 2005.Sheinken was awarded the Best Book of a Musi-

    Saturday Night Live legendJoe Piscopo and from theoriginal cast of BroadwaysJersey Boys, MichaelLongoria, will light upCaesars Atlantic City on

    Saturday, August 28 as they present theworld premiere of their new production,Thats Life.

    Highlighting this electrifying new mixtureof music and comedy will be the appear-ance by Joe in full makeup as the mostpopular characters through which he rock-eted to fame on Saturday Night Live in the1980s, among them David Letterman, The

    Sports Guy and of course, the immortalFrank Sinatra, who was a big fan of Joesimpersonation of him. Joe will also performas another New Jersey-born musical giant,Bruce Springsteen.

    Audiences also will have the opportunityto see a lesser-known side of Joesthat ofa master musician and one-man band whoseinstrumental prowess includes piano, guitar,saxophone, drums...and even flute!

    Adding to the excitement of Thats Life,will be the stellar voice behind MichaelLongoria, which became well known duringhis Broadway run as Four Seasons lead sing -

    In response to an increase of day time residential burglaries and night time thefts fromvehicles, the Lower Merion Police Department has allocated personnel to address thecurrent crime trend. The public can provide valuable assistance to our Department byreporting suspicious activity, noted Supt. Mike McGrath. We also recommend that citizensheighten awareness of their personal security and keep in mind that criminals will preyon the easiest target. Calls from the public reporting suspicious activity has increasedand proven helpful to the Police.

    Citizens should not hesitate to call when they see anything suspicious, added Supt.McGrath. Though police officers are on continuous patrol,they cannot be everywhere at once. When consideringwhat constitutes suspicious behavior or activity, the follow -ing guidelines can be helpful:

    Anyone who acts abnormally should be considered sus-picious. Examples of suspicious behavior include:

    Unusual noises, including screaming, sounds of fightingor glass breaking.

    People in and/or around buildings or areas who do notappear to be conducting legitimate business.

    Individuals driving vehicles slowly and aimlessly onresidential streets.

    People sitting in vehicles for extended periods of time. Those who unexpectedly knock on your door with

    ambiguous purposes. Individuals who change their behavior when they notice

    that they have been detected. People dressed inappropriately for the weather or occa-

    sion, i.e., coat or wearing gloves when the temperature iswarm.

    It is always better to report a person or situation and haveit turn out not to be a crime than to not report the personor situation and find out later that a crime was committed,urged Supt. McGrath. If you have a question or need furtherinformation regarding burglary prevention, contact theLower Merion Police Departments Crime Prevention Unitat 610-645-6240.

    month national tour this fall. Visit www.tinangel forion.her graduation from Bryn Mawr College in May 2009,

    was awarded a coveted Thomas J. Watson Fellowship,ponsored her and her harp for twelve months ofbroad as she conducted an independent researchentitled: Artist 2.0: The Impact of New Technologypendent Music. Pulling on her own experience aspendent artist in the United States, Gillian has spent

    the past twelve months traveling through France, Germany,India, Indonesia, China, and Russia, where she performed,collaborated, and conducted interviews with people involvedon all levels of the music industry, from Bollywood soundengineers to an avant-garde jazz duo in Moscow.

    Digital distribution, social media technology, electronicinstruments, and readily available recording software havechanged the ways that music is created and consumed,placing local and global music industries in flux, Gillianexplains. Its at once an incredibly exciting time to be mak -ing music and an incredibly unstable time to be trying tomake a living making music.

    I had a pretty good sense of what it meant to be an indiemusician in the U.S., but this is a country with a long andwell-established history of recording/performing artists,says Gillian. There are many things American musicianstake for granted our highway system, small-scale listen-ing room venues, an audience culture that is accustomedto buying tickets for live music entertainment, even openmic events for new acts to cut their teeth these are thingsthat dont necessarily exist, or exist differently, in othercountries. Gillian studied emerging music scenes and newbusiness models for recording/performing artists, throughconversations with musicians, venue owners, studio tech-nicians, and fans in Europe and Asia.

    Gillian departed from her traditional background in Classi-

    cal and Celtic music and began writing original songs whileliving abroad in Switzerland when she was fifteen. Uponreturning to the States, she graduated high school a yearearly and turned down conservatory acceptances to divehead first into the Philadelphia singer-songwriter circuit.Since then, she has independently released two criticallyacclaimed recordingsher 2005 EP To an Unwitting Museand 2007s Serpentine, a full-length album that was com-posed, recorded, and released while she was still a studentat Bryn Mawr College. Both sold out of their original press -ings.

    She has toured along the Eastern seaboard and in all ofher project countries, booking her own shows, and has beena featured act at WXPNsXPoNential Music Festivaland the Edinburgh Interna-tional Harp Festival, debut-ing at the latter at the tenderage of fourteen. Her songSilken String finished sec-ond in the 2008 New YorkSongwriters Circle Competi-tion and has since been pick-ed up by triple-A radio sta-tions nationally.

    Kyle Billings, a 21-year-oldstudent at Hussian Schoolof Art and International Houseresident, was recently award-ed a $10,000 Davis Projectsfor Peace grant. Billings,through an impressive pro-posal, saw his dream cometrue during a weekend-longproject he called Paintingfor Peace.

    The project, a combinationof community beautification,art, and intercultural aware-ness, culminated with thepainting of an impressive 1,000square-foot mural just out-side the International Housesstudent center created by agroup of 20 participants andfour leaders who built a friend-ship during their ambitiousventure. Billings, with the

    assistance of his teacher andprofessional muralist ScottKirschner, designed a muralthat took recognizable cityimages and landscapes from10 countries and combinedthem to connect gracefullywith each other and repre-sent a feeling of united tran-quility. By painting side by side, and through a series ofactivities including breaking bread together, all participantswere able to gain first-hand knowledge of the others culture.

    My goal was to show how a three-day community beau-tification and intercultural awareness project using muralarts could have a positive impact on both American teensand international students, Billings said. InternationalHouse Philadelphia residents come from different back-grounds and have each had unique experiences in theirrespective countries. I wanted everyone involved to learnand teach collectively, simply by being brought togetherwith the common goal of creating this mural.

    Kyle is a wonderful example for young people, said BruceWartman, President of Hussian School of Art. It is veryadmirable that he brought so many individuals together toparticipate in an art and cultural experience.

    Hussian School of Art is a four-year professional careerschool dedicated to the Communication Arts. The schoolis now located in the Bourse Building, 111 South Indepen-dence Mall East (at 5th Street), Philadelphia, PA 19106. For

    information, call 215-574-9600, email [email protected],or visit www.hussianart.edu.

    Founded 100 years ago in 1910, International House Philadelphia is an independent, non-profit organization that ishome to nearly 400 students, scholars and interns fromover 65 countries. To learn more about IHP Housing andMembership opportunities, and upcoming Arts and Programming events, visit www.ihousephilly.org or call 215-387-5125.

    In its fourth year, Davis Projects for Peace is an invitationto undergraduates at the American colleges and universi-ties in the Davis United World College Scholars Program todesign grassroots projects that they will implement duringthe summer of 2010. The projects judged to be the mostpromising and do-able will be funded at $10,000 each. Theobjective is to encourage and support todays motivatedyouth to create and tryout their own ideas for building peace.The Davis Projects for Peace is made possible by KathrynWasserman Davis, an accomplished internationalist andphilanthropist.

    Seventy-five percent of pancreatic cancer patients die with -in the first 12 months of their diagnosis and the five-yearsurvival rate is only five percent. In a collaborative project,George Prendergast, Ph.D., Professor, President & CEO atthe Lankenau Institute for Medical Research (LIMR) and

    Iraimoudi Ayene, Ph.D., Associate Professor at LIMR, receiveda one-year $125,000 grant from the Elsa U. Pardee Founda-tion to conduct the research project entitled Novel Immuno -chemotherapy for Pancreatic Cancer Treatment.

    Cell biochemistry and genetic studies suggest that cancercells may be addicted to a cellular process called the oxida -tive pentose phosphate cycle (OPPC), which supports DNAbiosynthesis and other needs of cancer cells. This new workwill test the expected killing effects of disrupting the OPPCin preclinical models of metastastic pancreatic cancer, whichare needed before clinical testing of the idea can begin.Specifically, the project will characterize the pharmacolog-ical and therapeutic properties of Hypoxin, a drug com-pound discovered in Dr. Ayenes lab. By disrupting OPPCfunction the hope is to increase tumor cell killing, therebydelaying relapse and extending survival of patients withmetastatic disease, where there is a great need for bettertherapeutic options.

    Dr. Prendergast is a distinguished cancer researcher withwide recognition and expertise in areas of cancer geneticsand biology, signal transduction, and molecular therapeutics.In 1995, he was recognized as a Pew Scholar in the Biomedi-

    cal Sciences, one of an elite group of twentyinvestigators awarded this prize each yearby The Pew Charitable Trusts. Dr. Prender-gast has been a member of the AmericanAssociation of Cancer Research (AACR) since1996 and serves as Editor-in-Chief for CancerResearch, the fields most highly cited jour-nal. He is a graduate of the University ofPennsylvania where he received his BAmagma cum laude with Distinction in Bio-chemistry; Yale University where he obtain-ed his MS in Molecular Biophysics and Bio-chemistry; and Princeton University wherehe received his Ph.D. in Molecular Biology.

    Dr. Ira Ayene joined LIMR in 2007 fromthe University of Pennsylvania, Departmentof Radiation Oncology. He received M.Sc. inLife Sciences and Ph.D. in Biology, Chemistry& Radiation Biology from Jawaharlal NehruUniversity in New Delhi, India. His researchgoal is to find new ways to improve theeffectiveness of radiation and chemotherapyin cancer treatment.

    Founded in 1927, the Lankenau Institutefor Medical Research (LIMR) is an indepen-dent, nonprofit biomedical research center

    located in suburban Philadelphia on the campus of theLankenau Hospital. Part of Main Line Health, LIMR is oneof the few freestanding, hospital-associated medical researchcenters in the nation. The faculty and staff at the Instituteare dedicated to advancing an understanding of the causes

    of cancer, heart disease and diabetes. They use this infor-mation to help improve diagnosis and treatment of thesediseases as well as find ways to prevent them. They are alsocommitted to extending the boundaries of human healthand well-being through technology transfer and the train-ing of the next generation of scientists and physicians. Forinformation, visit www.limr.org.

    Located in Midland, Michigan, the Elsa U. Pardee Foundation was established in 1944 under the terms of the will ofMrs. Elsa U. Pardee, whose life was taken by cancer onOctober 2, 1944. Mrs. Pardee provided a $1 million trustfund for the promotion of the control and cure of cancer.She directed that this bequest be used to support researchin the field of cancer and to provide for others the advan-tages of new knowledge and techniques for the treatmentof this related group of disabling and f requently lethal dis-eases. Since 1944, this family-run foundation has proudlygiven over $113 million in grants to support two key areas:research programs directed toward discovering new ap-proaches for cancer treatment and cure and financial sup-port for cancer treatment.
