Color and Serenity: The Paintings by Michio TakayamaMichio Takayama’s (1903-1994) work combines the lyricism of Japanese poetry with the serenity of Zen philosophy. Born in rural Japan, the artist spent his last 20 years in Taos. Although New Mexico’s beauty —mountains, trees, birds, and sunsets — inspired him immeasurably, his paintings are distilled to the essence of what he felt and saw, evoking mood, light and space. His work will be on display in the PAC’s Gallery June 5 to July 6, represented by Tucson, Arizona’s The Gallery at 6th and 6th. The PAC Gallery is open Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. and during Chapman Music Hall events. Admission is free.

THE FinaL FivE haunting chords of andrew Lloyd Webber’s The Phantom of the Opera closed its phenomenal Oklahoma debut run in Chapman Music Hall on March 23, 1996. it’s difficult to believe 12 years have passed since Celebrity attractions first presented the 20-truck produc-tion of Phantom, but we are delighted to welcome the show back to the Tulsa Performing arts Center.

The first visit from Broadway’s masked man was, in some ways, an experi-ment. at that time, Tulsa was the smallest market the show had played, and the producers were concerned for its success. as it turned out, they needn’t have been. Out of the 89,870 seats available during the show’s 38-performance run, only 12 went unsold.

i have always felt a special connection to Phantom. it drew me in so strongly at the first performance, i saw the show 21 more times beginning to end. There was something compelling about the synergy of the production combined with sold-out audiences that i simply couldn’t resist. Conversely, on the Monday after its final performance, when all the actors, sets and props were gone, i went into Chapman Music Hall and it felt unusually empty, eerily so. in fact, i could’ve sworn i heard the Phantom’s voice still echoing in the hall with strains from “The Music of the night.”

The Tulsa economy will be bolstered by an estimated $20 million dollars due to Phantom. People will visit and stay overnight to see it. Restaurants will be extra busy and limos will be in demand as patrons create special experiences around their attendance. More than 40 local union stagehands will earn good money moving the production in and out. Marriage proposals will be offered. and in some way, every PaC staff member will touch and be touched by the show.

Whether for the first or the 23rd time, i know we all will be drawn in by this one-of-a-kind production. Give in to it. and don’t forget the diverse offerings of SummerStage 2008 in our other theaters during June, July and august. it’s a great summer at the PaC!

Thanks for all your support and i’ll see you in the lobby.

PhenomenalPhantom

by Lynne Burke

almost a century ago, when Gaston Leroux first penned Le Fantôme de l’Opera, the French journalist and mystery novelist would no doubt have been astounded if he could have foreseen his work becoming an internationally celebrated masterpiece, inspiring the most successful entertainment venture of the 20th century, which would eventually touch the lives of more than 80 million people around the world.

today, with grosses estimated at over $5 billion, andrew Lloyd Webber’s musical

version of the classic tale of unrequited love has become the longest-running show on Broadway, where it recently celebrated its 20th anniversary season, and has spawned as many as 11 productions concurrently circling the globe.

this summer, tulsa joins the travel ros-ter, hosting a second round of performanc-es of Lloyd Webber’s The Phantom of the Opera, directed by Broadway legend hal Prince. the production made its oklahoma debut at the PaC in 1996.



“This is an international phenome-non,” says Ed Payton, vice president of Celebrity attractions. “and, like any classic, it has a universal appeal.

“The first time Phantom was in Tulsa, all tickets were completely sold out before the first performance. We are once again, based on sales thus far, anticipating another sell-out.”

Set in 1861 at the Paris Opera House, The Phantom of the Opera tells the story of a complex love triangle that fatefully unites a facially disfigured “opera ghost” with a beautiful, aspiring singer who falls under his spell and her previously estranged childhood sweetheart. With sumptuous sets, memorable lyrics and awe-inspiring special effects, the musical consistently seduces audiences into its hypnotic fold.

“Phantom’s enduring popularity is built on a strong foundation,” says Payton. “The Phantom of the Opera is a tower-ing spectacle filled with elaborate sets that dazzle and pageantry fit for a Royal Opera. all of this is mixed with a memo-rable score and haunting lyrics sung by an incredibly talented cast, which lifts the audiences’ spirits throughout the entire production. For today’s jaded audiences, used to one-hit wonders and Hollywood special effects, the Phantom experience soars. Underneath the music, sets and pageantry is a classic love story with a sympathetic villain.”

Compelling storytelling notwithstand-ing, staging a production of Phantom’s magnitude demands extraordinary efforts and organizational planning on a grand scale. With 230 costumes occupying 200 feet of space and requiring 14 backstage dressers; 160 wigs (containing hidden microphones) and five hairdressers using over 1,000 hairpins a week; 2,700 yards of drapery; 9 follow spotlights; 479 lighting instruments producing 75 special lighting effects; a radio-controlled boat; 10 fog and smoke machines that use 550 pounds of dry ice per performance; a 10-foot chan-delier; and one giant elephant prop — the staggering technical elements of Phantom make it one of the most labor-intensive, expensively produced shows in the world.

“i work about 75 to 80 hours a week,” says David Hansen, who as the Phantom’s technical director oversees the massive set-up, tear-down and mind-boggling mechanical acrobatics of live performanc-es that require dozens of backstage crew members. “There are 83 fly cues, 52 automated scenery cues, 14 pyrotechnic cues, and well over 400 lighting cues in the show.”

in addition to performance logistics, the strategic systemization of moving the show from venue to venue across the

country is a remarkable production in itself.

“Our show, which consists of twenty 48-foot semi-trailers full of scenery, light-ing and audio equipment, and costumes, loads out in 13 hours and takes 20 hours to load in; however, there is a six-day period before the load-in, known as “the advance week,” where we install some of the larger set pieces of which we have doubles,” Hansen says.

“Our 1,000-pound automated chan-delier and seven-ton proscenium arch, which are designed to emulate the Paris Opera House, each require extensive rig-ging and installation in each theater. We literally have to make alterations to the building to make it suitable for our show.”

in spite of the potential for the unex-pected mishaps one might anticipate with

such a highly technical show, Hansen declares it’s a rare performance where any glaring mistakes make themselves known to the audiences.

“We did have a few performances lately where some hand props broke in the middle of a performance,” he says. “One of our dancers uses a shepherd’s crook, and during the dance he stamped the staff and the crook fell off the top.”

Despite such minor and occasional comical flaws, the show usually goes off without a hitch and, amazingly, the daily production preparation for the cast and crew has been reduced to an artful sci-ence, with everything pulling together a scant hour or two before curtain time.

“The technical staff arrives at the the-ater an hour and a half before every curtain to start pre-setting for that perfor-mance,” says Hansen. “The Phantom and Christine usually arrive an hour before curtain to prepare. The rest of the cast shows up 30 minutes before the perfor-mance, and the orchestra arrives about 15 minutes before the show.”

Whether one is a first-time attendee or a card-carrying “Phantomaniac,” this production offers the region’s theatergo-ers a rare opportunity to see a high-qual-ity performance of a show that continues to make the Broadway history books. Phantom already is a quintessential and timeless icon in american musical the-atre.

“The Phantom of the Opera is a musical memory worth repeating,” Payton says. “Hearing the same symphony a second or third time, seeing a classic movie again, traveling back to a favorite inn … all of these are memories worth repeating. it’s not just nostalgic; it also gives you an opportunity to explore the musical and gain new insight and enjoyment you missed the first time.”

The rat PackNovember 18-23

The Rat Pack is back! Direct from a record-breaking run in London’s West End, this show brilliantly recreates the ultimate meeting of three legendary performers. The Sands is no longer, and Frank, Sammy and Dean have left us, but The Rat Pack transports you back to that moment in popular music history that has never been equaled.

The Color PurpleJanuary 20-25

From the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel by alice Walker and the moving film by Steven Spielberg comes a soul-stirring musical and land-mark event produced by Oprah Winfrey. The Color Purple is an inspiring family saga that tells the unforgettable story of a woman who — through love — finds the strength to triumph over adversity and discover her unique voice in the world. Set to a joyous score, featuring jazz, rag-time, gospel and blues, it is a story of hope and a celebration of life.

The Pajama gameMarch 3-8

There’s unrest at the Sleep Tite paja-ma factory when Sid and Babe sit on opposite sides of the negotiating table, clashing over a seven-and-a-half cent raise. But love threatens to shut down the plant as the battle of the sexes plays out in this rollicking classic of the Golden age of musical comedy. Both the original production in 1954 and the 2006 revival won Tony awards for Best Musical. The Pajama Game is a rambunc-tious pillow fight full of jazzy songs, hot dance and exuberant laughter.

The Drowsy ChaperoneJune 2-7

a totally original new musical within a comedy, The Drowsy Chaperone has “more laughs per minute than any new show on

Broadway” (WWCR-Tv), the most 2006 Tony awards of any musical on Broadway and the new York Drama Critics’ Circle and Drama Desk awards for Best Musical! it all begins when a die-hard musical-theatre fan plays his favorite cast album on his turntable, and the musical literally bursts into life in his living room, telling the stellar tale of a brazen Broadway star-let trying to find, and keep, her true love.

WickedJuly 14-19

So much happened before Dorothy dropped in. Long before that girl from Kansas arrives in Munchkinland, two girls meet in the Land of Oz. One — born with emerald green skin — is smart, fiery and misunderstood. The other is beautiful, ambitious and very popular. How these two grow to become the Wicked Witch of the West and Glinda the Good Witch makes for the most spellbinding new musi-cal in years. “Wicked has brains, heart, and, yes … courage,” says the Columbus Post-Dispatch.

All events are in Chapman Music Hall. Tues.-Thurs. at 7:30 p.m., Fri. at 8 p.m., Sat. at 2 p.m. and 8 p.m., Sun. at 2 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. Season tickets are $95 - $285. Visit celebrityattractions.com or call (918) 596-7109. Tickets for individual perfor-mances will be on sale through the PAC at a later date.

Black TuesdayChoreographer: Paul TaylorMusic: songs from the Great DepressionWith leaps across the stage instead of out of windows, this ballet’s happy tunes and bouyant movements balance the despair of its setting: the aftermath of the 1929 stock market crash. vintage recordings of popular 1930s songs frame this Kennedy Center honoree’s quirky choreography.

Petite MortChoreographer: Jiri KylianMusic: Wolfgang Amadeus MozartSix men, six women and six swords. What kind of “small death” will come of this? Provocatively intertwining choreography creates unusual shapes and innovative lifts in this demonstration of sensuality set to two of Mozart’s piano concertos.

La BohèmeOctober 4, 10 and 12

Giacomo Puccini’s most popular opera, the masterpiece that inspired the hit Broadway musical Rent, returns to Tulsa! This is the timeless story of six young bohemians who dream, laugh and fall in love in the garrets and cafes of 19th-cen-tury Paris. Tenor Yegishe Manucharyan, who played Lenski in Tulsa Opera’s 2005 production of Eugene Onegin, returns as the poet Rodolfo opposite soprano Sara Jakubiak, making her company debut as his great love, Mimi. Donita volkwijn, Tulsa Opera’s splendid Bess in the com-pany’s Porgy and Bess, returns as the flirtatious Musetta. Metropolitan Opera baritone Hyung Yun debuts as Musetta’s beau, Marcello, and Peter Strummer plays a dual role as Benoit, the bohemi-ans’ landlord, and alcindoro, a wealthy Parisian who wines and dines Musetta. viva La Bohème! introduce a friend to opera through this classic!

hansel & gretelFebruary 21, 27 and March 1

The beloved fairy tale of the Brothers Grimm is combined with a lush Wagner-

inspired romantic score in this evoca-tive operatic masterpiece. Composed by Engelbert Humperdinck (1893) with set designs by Maurice Sendak, creator of the immensely popular children’s book Where the Wild Things Are, this phantasmagoric production will be a memory-maker for the entire family. Performing the role of Gretel is Maureen McKay, who was lauded by the Washington Post for her “sil-very, precisely aimed voice” and “the kind of beautifully detailed acting you don’t see often enough on the operatic stage.” also making her Tulsa Opera debut is Texas native mezzo-soprano Blythe Gaissert per-forming the role of Hansel. The Denver Post wrote of Gaissert, “She has a pure, powerful and appealing voice and a force-ful stage presence to match.” Sung in English, Hansel & Gretel is a dream the-atre experience that no one will want to miss.

L’Elisir d’AmoreApril 25, May 1 and 3

in Gaetano Donizetti’s spellbinding comedy, L’Elisir d’Amore (The Elixir of Love), a shy italian peasant, nemorino, is madly in love with the rich and beautiful

landowner adina, but has little hope of winning her hand. His chances dwindle when the dashing officer Belcore arrives in town and woos adina with his charm and good looks. nemorino figures it is time for desperate measures — that only a bit of magic can change his fortune, and that Doctor Dulcamara (a con artist/medicine man) just might have the right potion to help him secure adina’s love. in the end, everyone toasts love, friendship and laughter, bathed in the Mediterranean sun. Opera lovers will recognize the sweet and melancholy melody of nemorino’s aria, “Una Furtiva Lagrina,” made famous by Luciano Pavarotti. Metropolitan Opera soprano Mari Moriya and exciting young tenor victor Ryan Robertson make their Tulsa Opera debuts; Terry Hodges returns to the Tulsa Opera stage as Dulcamara.

la Bohème and l‘Elisir d’Amore will be sung in Italian with translations projected above the stage. All performances take place in Chapman Music Hall.

Season tickets range from $60 to $265. Call Tulsa Opera at (918) 587-4811, or visit tulsaopera.com. Tickets to individual operas will be on sale through the PAC at a later date.

“The Power to Surprise”all New Vehicles Come With a

10 Year/100,000 Mile limited

Warranty

“Make Every Mile Count”THANKS! We rank FIRST in Oklahoma Kia sales!

There are no phantom reasons why so many are choosing to drive a Kia.

Col. R.W. “Bob” Powell (Ret.) took a Kia Spectra on a test drive and promptly traded-in his Cadillac. “I like

the style, zip and roominess of the Spectra and the fact it gets twice the gas mileage as the old Caddie.” Powell, 86, a distinguished war veteran, is the founder of the Museum of Military History at 6953 S. 66th East Ave. Email [email protected] for details.

Economy.

Dr. Jonathan and Jennifer Anthony selected a Kia Sportage for son Jason’s first car “after doing research to determine

which cars are the safest on the roads and highways”. They were sold on the Sportage after learning the model has earned the NHTSA’s 5-star crash safety rating. Jason and sister Jennifer Jane like the car’s styling and fuel economy…up to 25 mpg.

Safety. Dr. Steve and Cindy Nussbaum bought a Kia Sorento to meet their needs “for a vehicle that is larger than a

car but smaller and more fuel efficient than a standard SUV.” The Sorento is a sporty midsize SUV with a powerful V6 engine that stretches the time between fill-ups. The couple liked adding Kia’s optional features without adding much to the price, too.

Efficiency.

ORU Head Basketball Coach Scott Sutton selected his Kia Sorento because it’s “big enough for a tall dad and

our family with three children, but smaller than a standard SUV.” The Sutton family likes all the features, including a premium sound system with MP3 player. Coach Sutton also found Kia’s 10-year/100,000 mile warranty “unbeatable”.

Size.

Stop by to test drive a Kia. We have a model that will add miles of music to your driving life.

The Stuff of LegendBy Sarah Dulek


It takes an uncommon strength of character to build something from the ground up; whether it’s a business, or an entire state. It takes someone who is passionate about a vision, and who possesses enough determination to see that vision through tough times. Since the very early years of statehood, Rich and Cartmill, Inc. has been part of that process, helping people manage the good times, and helping them navigate through the downturns — not just through business, but with donations of time and money to many community organizations. More than oil, more than cattle, more than any economic trend, we believe in people. a lot has changed since our beginning. But our belief in people will always stay strong.

“Say You LoveMe”


What is chamber music, and how does it differ from a

full symphony concert? The short answer is that it’s a small group of musicians car-rying on a musical conversation in an intimate space. it has been described as “the music of friends.”

Chamber Music Tulsa keeps the friend-ly conversation going for its 51st season with another roster of some of the most sought-after groups on the chamber music scene.

Leading the series on September 13 and 14 is one of america’s most exciting ensembles, Biava Quartet. This youth-ful group, now in residence at Juilliard, has been the subject of a PBS docu-mentary. Their Saturday evening per-formance on September 13 will be the music of Glazunov and Shostakovich. On September 14 they play Haydn, Debussy, Barber’s Adagio for Strings, and Mendelssohn.

Gramaphone has described the academy of St. Martin in the Fields Chamber Ensemble as “nothing short of stunning.” They are drawn from the principal players of the aSMF Orchestra. The group will play Dvor̆ák and Raff on October 25, and on October 26 they perform music from

Brahms, Shostakovich and Mendelssohn. Listeners to nPR’s Performance Today

and Chamber Music Tulsa regulars will recognize the work of american Chamber Players. The group is praised for its varied repertoire and instrumental combinations. They play Mozart and Fauré on november 22, and the next day perform a full con-cert featuring Haydn, Paul Schoenfield, Frank Bridge and Schubert.

David Finckel and Wu han rank among the most esteemed and influ-ential classical musicians in the world. This superstar husband and wife duo serve as artistic directors of the Chamber Music Society at Lincoln Center and also of Music@Menlo, a chamber music festival in northern California that they founded in 2003. Finckel also plays cello with the Emerson String Quartet. On January 3 the couple will play Janác̆ek and Rachmaninov, and on January 4, they perform Bach’s Sonata in G minor BWv 1029, along with cello sonatas by Beethoven, Brahms and Mendelssohn.

Representing Czech music through-out Europe, the americas and the Far East, talich Quartet is the recipient of many international prizes. Talich has recorded the complete works of Mozart

and Beethoven. Czech composer Janác̆ek and Haydn will be featured on February 14, and Schubert, Kalliwoda and Dvor̆ák on February 15.

trio Fedele’s unique instrumental combination of flute, cello and piano has made a name for these Juilliard and Curtis institute graduates. Their reper-toire encompasses the baroque and clas-sical masters, as well as modern work. On March 21 they will entertain salon series members with the music of Martinu and Beethoven, closing the season on March 22 with Haydn, Beethoven, Weber, Messiaien and Crumb.

Chamber Music Tulsa patrons will enjoy an intimate concert experience and new seats in John H. Williams Theatre. Purchasing tickets to the Salon series, held in Westby Pavilion, will allow music-lovers to experience chamber music as it was meant to be enjoyed — in a beautiful setting where conversation, spoken or played, flows freely among friends.

Season tickets to the Sunday series of six concerts, held at 3 p.m. in Williams Theatre, are $110 adults, $90 seniors, and $25 for students. Salon Series tickets, which include all Sunday performances plus Saturday evening concerts, a light buffet and wine, are $295 per person. Call (918) 587-3802.

Tina BrownDecember 5“The Culture of Celebrity in the Tabloid Era”Tina Brown was just 25 when she was placed at the helm of the venerable British monthly The Tatler. after increasing its circulation 300 per-cent, she went on to revive Vanity Fair as its editor-in-chief in 1984. in 1992, she became the first female editor-in-chief of The New Yorker. Since then, Brown has produced specials for CnBC, hosted a weekly talk show, and written a book titled The Diana Chronicles. She is cur-rently working on a book about Bill and Hillary Clinton.

rick StevesMarch 13“Europe Through the Back Door”Rick Steves has built an empire out of his intimate, budget-conscious approach to traveling through Europe. On his popu-lar PBS series, he encourages american travelers to become “temporary locals” by staying at small, family-run inns and spending time in cozy villages as well as

major cities. Known for his lively and irreverent sense of humor, Steves main-tains the enthusiasm of a first-timer for the delicious sights, sounds and tastes of Europe.

David LamptonMay 15“Chinese Power and What it Means to America”The U.S. faces new challenges as China surges into the 21st century as a global economic and political power. Dr. David Lampton, who has spent more than 30 years studying China’s leadership, policy-making process, domestic and foreign pol-icy, and U.S.-China relations, is uniquely qualified to lend his perspective on this complicated relationship. Lampton is the author of numerous books, including The Three Faces of Chinese Power: Might, Money and Minds.

TaLK iS CHEaP — or shall we say “a bargain” — for Tulsa Town Hall sub-scribers. For only $60 ($12 per speaker!) you get to see intelligent, famous people talk about their lives, their jobs and their passions. Here’s the lineup for Tulsa Town Hall’s 74th season:

John StosselSeptember 5“Pandering to Fear: The Media’s Crisis Mentality”an Emmy award-winning journalist and co-anchor of aBC’s 20/20, John Stossel is known as a thought-provoking correspon-dent who often takes a contrarian view of things. His one-hour prime-time spe-cials have examined such issues as greed, gender differences and spurious lawsuits. Stossel is perhaps best known for his use of the catch phrase, “Give me a break,” which is the title of his 20/20 segments challenging “conventional wisdom.” it is also the title of his bestselling autobiog-raphy.

Jeannette WallsOctober 17“The Glass Castle”Journalist Jeannette Walls has penned articles for New York Magazine, USA Today and Esquire, but it was her 2005 memoir, The Glass Castle, that showed the world what a remarkable person she really is. Walls’ father was a brilliant but destructive alcoholic; her mother, a free-spirited artist who chafed at the responsibility of raising four chil-dren. Walls’ courage and determination to escape the crushing poverty of her childhood serve as an inspiration and a testament to the power of education.
