Janeta Bounces from Poppins to Billie

Review: Lady Day at Emerson’s Bar & Grill By Perry Tannenbaum

Forget the famous nickname for a second. Like only a handful of jazz artists – instrumentalists Miles Davis and John Coltrane come to mind – Billie Holiday’s vocal career had a distinctive arc, leaving the diva’s fans with a blithe and sunny early period of recordings, a forceful and dramatic middle period, and a worldly wise and…

Ed Harris talks portraying painter Claude Monet in free Valentine’s Day Zoom performance

The actor and his costar/wife Amy Madigan discuss working with director Stacy Keach on ‘The Gardener’ to benefit the Actors Fund.

In Ed Harris’ long and storied career from “The Right Stuff” to “Westworld,” one of his most renowned roles was painter Jackson Pollock. Harris directed, starred and even replicated the artist’s paintings in the film “Pollock” and was nominated for an Academy Award for it.

Now Harris returns to the art world as a very different painter, Claude Monet. This Sunday, February 14th, Harris is starring with wife Amy Madigan and Stacy Keach in a Zoom production of Lanie Robertson’s “The Gardener” about Monet’s long friendship with the French politician Georges Clemenceau.

This new play, which Keach also directs, is part of the ongoing Stacy Keach Zoom Theater. (Keach, best known for his Mike Hammer television series, first rose to fame on stage, starting in 1967 with his Obie-winning performance in “MacBird.”) “The Gardener” debuts on Sunday at 5 p.m. (stacykeachzoomtheater.com) and is free, requesting donations to the Actors Fund.

“I don’t charge money because I want to let people appreciate the theater,” Keach says, “but the Actors Fund does great work in providing services for actors who are struggling right now.”

Harris and Madigan (“Field of Dreams”) met doing theater 40 years ago and married in 1983 while co-starring in “Places in the Heart.” They’ve continued working together on stage (“The Jacksonian,” “Buried Child”) and screen (“Pollock” “Gone Baby Gone”), while also appearing on their own. (Madigan has an Oscar nomination for “Twice in a Lifetime,” and Harris was nominated for “Apollo 13,” “The Truman Show,” and “The Hours” in addition to “Pollock.”)

Harris and Madigan, who knew Keach from when their daughters rode horses together in Malibu, spoke by phone about the play. The conversation has been edited for length and clarity.

Q. What drew you to this project?

Harris: Stacy has been a good pal for quite a while and when he sent the play to us I just found it really intriguing. It’s a well-written play; the dialogue is neat and it’s straightforward but there’s a lot going on and plenty of subtext.

Q. This is your second iconic painter role. Do you prefer Pollock or Monet in your personal taste?

Harris: Actually, I’m a big fan of primitive art. I have always liked Monet’s work but didn’t know much about him as a human being. I didn’t realize how prolific he was but I got a great book of his work and the different styles are pretty remarkable.

Madigan: I like what I respond to, usually on an emotional level, which is why I liked Pollock so much. I was aware of Monet, of course, but doing the research really pulled me in more.

Q. How much research did you do for this play?

Harris: I did my due diligence. I read about his relationships and the different areas he traveled to for painting outside.

Madigan: Stacy sent us a 20-minute film of artists like Monet, Rodin and Renoir from that period, where you could watch them actually work and that was a fascinating look at who the man was. It was an interesting period politically too, so there was a lot to research and really investigate.

Q. While this is not traditional theater, you’ve both always returned to the stage throughout your career. What brings you back?

Harris: I love the whole rehearsal period where you have time to research and to dig deep into the text. Then you go to the theater and do the show: Boom. It’s not going to the set and sitting in your trailer for hours to maybe be in front of the camera for 10 minutes. Plus, in theater, you have an audience and all that give and take, which is always exciting,

Madigan: Everybody has missed the live experience of theater, music and dance. We miss the audience and the collective experience. Every day in the newspaper you see something about theater on Zoom because the people that miss it have been experiencing it this way, myself included. It fulfills a need that we have.

Q. Was it challenging to accept the limitations of Zoom theater or did you just accept that this is life in the pandemic?

Harris: It’s just nice to have something creative to focus on for a couple of weeks and sharing it together was great. We rehearsed for a week a couple of hours a day or more, then we quote-unquote filmed it for five days. It was really fun

Madigan: It is not the theater we’re used to but it was very freeing in a way. The limitations of Zoom kind of opens you up in a different way.

Q. Do you still like acting with each other?

Madigan: We’re very different people and our approaches are different but working together has always been fulfilling and a lot of fun. We hadn’t worked together on stage in a while so this was pretty exciting.

Harris: Talking about the characters and certain moments and clarifying things for each other keeps us close creatively.

Q. Ed, you tear up a painting during “The Gardener” — did you create it just for the show?

Harris: At the end of act one, I destroy a painting, so I just did a pretty bad copy of a Monet to rip up.

Madigan: I thought it was pretty good.

Harris: It just flashes by onscreen. It was not something I spent tons of time on. I was just trying to get something that looked like one of his paintings, somewhat. I wouldn’t call it Impressionism. I don’t know what I’d call it; it was pretty mediocre whatever it was.

Q. How much time do you spend painting these days?

Harris: I always make my wife something for Valentine’s Day; one time it was a sculpture but usually it’s a painting, usually something humorous, but loving. So I’ve been down there a lot recently working on this year’s rendition.

Q. Amy, you’ve never torn those up, right?

Madigan: No, I have them all. They’re quite good, but they’re very private.

Early 1920s Non-English American Records by OKeh

I’ve only begun researching the history of the early recorded music industry. From the beginning, I’ve been interested learning about certain series of records sold by OKeh, a company (of course not the only one) which sought out musicians from a variety of cultural and ethnic groups to appeal to North American and American immigrant demographics. OKeh was one of the first companies to regularly conduct field trips locating musicians in areas that previously lacked recording studio access.

OKeh is responsible for tapping into multiple demographics that had been underrepresented or absent from early commercial music records. In 1920 OKeh recorded Mamie Smith’s “Crazy Blues,” in which Mamie Smith was the first African-American female singer to lead a commercial recording. It was “unexpectedly” successful and broke open the doors for major recording companies to produce materials specifically for African-American audiences. This song alone is worth a ton of research, discussion, and analysis regarding its social background and its bold, hard-hitting lyrics like, “Get myself a gun and shoot myself a cop.”

The same individual who supervised Mamie Smith’s recording, Ralph Peer, is also credited with bringing us the first successful country music record, that of Fiddlin’ John Carson in 1923. It was almost the first country music record, too, but A. C. (“Eck”) Robertson recorded in the summer of 1922 for Victor and saw his music released in April of 1923; John Carson was recorded on June 13, 1923, and his music released August 3, 1923. Even though Peer considered either Carson’s singing or the recording quality “pluperfect awful” (different accounts say different things), this record sold like hotcakes.

To be clear: the motivations behind OKeh and Ralph Peer were that of profit, not representation. And Fiddlin’ John Carson, despite being an integral part of country music history, is no personality to celebrate. But it is nevertheless a unique and informative area of music history to explore for both the good and bad residing in it.

I’ve known the stories of Mamie Smith, Ralph Peer, and John Carson for some time, but I haven’t delved as much into OKeh’s early 1920s music in which they recorded many other cultural groups in North America. Today, I’m peeping into their early catalogue, which is excitingly available online, and contains occasional digital files of the old records.

From 1918-1934, OKeh designated entire catalog series numbers to music and comedy from many people groups and languages. These were, as designated by OKeh itself: Race [that is, African-American] (8000 and 20000), Italian (9000, 84000, and 86000), German (10000, 81000, and 85000), Polish (11000, 67000, and 87000), Hungarian (12000 and 86500), Roumanian (13000 and 83500), Finnish (13500), Jewish (14000), Porto Rican (14000), Russian (15000), Ukranian (16000 and 81500), Mexican (16000, 16400, and 88000), Bohemian (17000), Slovak (18000), Scandinavian/Swedish (19000), Danish (20000), Irish (21000), French (22000), Serbo-Croatian (23000), Slovenian-Krainer (24000), Croatian (25000), Norwegian (25000), Lithuanian (26000), Swiss (27000), Welsh (27500), Greek (28000), Portuguese (29000), Chinese (29000), Spanish (33000), West Indian (65000), Bulgarian (69000), Armenian (77000 and 78000), Hebrew (80000), Portuguese (80500), Greek (82000 and 82500), Turkish (83000), and Bohemian (89000). Think I got all that right.

I’m not here today to seek out the most famous songs that have come out of OKeh’s early 1920s, but I am here to have fun, and I hope it’s fun to share with you songs in different languages I’ve found, looked up, and listened to. Because what’s cooler than what American immigrant and minority populations listened to 100 years ago?

Do note: lots of the audio files are quiet, so you’ll need to crank up. Also note: since this was a hundred years ago, sometimes the record label’s language choices can get... wonky... from a modern perspective. I don’t think here anything’s weird, but I want to give warning because I’ve Seen Things before.

S-70969 OKeh 14054 Mein Griner Cosin / Ich Bin A Border Bei Mein Weib

Tenor Morris Goldstein, singing in Yiddish and backed by an orchestra, was recorded November 1922 in New York, New York. As you can see on the label above, OKeh has it labeled as a “Jewish Comic Song.” Both Morris Goldstein and the composer of this song, Morris Rund, have their names appear on many other records. In fact, looking at Morris Goldenstein, he appears on a large number of records from five companies (Victor, Columbia, OKeh, Brunswick, and Edison) between 1916 and 1929. I desperately wish I could find more information about him, especially given how well-recorded he was, and at such an early time, indicating some level of prominent singer, but regrettably the internet is turning me up dry. I will say, even with this audio being nearly 99 years old, his voice sings out wonderfully.

I actually just stumbled across a copy of this record on eBay, which is fun to see floating around. And reliable discogs has this listed, too, albeit to no surprise, there’s no copies for sale.

8440 OKeh 26024 Pamylējau Vakar / Vai, Varge, Varge

Lithuanian! I found a hundred songs in the OKeh matrices in this language. This recording by baritone singer Kastas Sabonis was recorded in Chicago, Illinois, in July of 1923. Unfortunately, I have less on Sabonis than I do Goldstein, but I noticed Sabonis reappears on Columbia in 1925 and Victor in 1926.

One of the things I am fascinated by is how the main label material (song title, performer) is in Lithuanian, but the rest is in English. In some ways, you could say this makes sense... non-Lithuanian consumers can understand the gist of what it’s about, and Lithuanian people can potentially recognize the title of a song they’re already familiar with. And like, it’s always better to keep the title of the song in its actual language.

Also ironically, one of these records was sold online in late January 2021. So these do float around, still.

S-7310 OKeh 4801 Kuu Pua Loke / Mauna Kea O' Hawaii

We have records of Prince Lei Lani between 1913 and 1928. He started with Victor and switched to OKeh in 1920. This song, Mauna kea o' Hawaii, is the second song he recorded with OKeh; he was recorded in New York, New York. It’s a beautiful recording.

He was born in 1887 in Hawai'i as Edwin Kaumualiiokamokuokalani Rose. Sometimes you’ll see his name as Prince Leilani, Edwin K. Rose, or E. K. Rose. He was in three movies: Waikiki Wedding (1937), Hawaiian Nights (1939), and Bird of Paradise (1951). Lest you forget how nascent the recording industry is, Prince Lei Lani died in 1971. I’ve found one blogger, a relative of his, who’s translated articles and advertisements from Hawaiian to English and collected information on him, in case you’re interested seeing photographs of him and learning more. There’s some fun stuff here.

73798 Odeon 18056 Prychod Z Krčmi Na Svite

Comedy! Slovak comedy! Although the database tells me this is a “Male vocal solo, with accordion,” there’s clearly two singers, and the majority of the recording is speech. The singing duet backed by accordion seems to be, to my untrained ear, an opener and a closer to the act. Comedy recordings are a fun element of early records I need to get more into, and while I can’t understand Andrej Gellert’s speech, the fact he’s intentionally interspersing his speech with hiccups makes it clear to me this is a humorous sketch.

This was recorded November 1925 in New York, New York.

There are more digital files of Andrej Gellert on this site. These ones are music. That’s probably why he got listed as “Male vocal solo.” You can hear Mlynské kolo tosa toci, from the same recording session as Prychod z krčmi na svite. There’s also Lístie opadlo (this one’s really cool) and Na ćo som na svete?, and Veselý pastier recorded May 11, 1925. Frankly his list goes on forever. He did quite a lot for Victor and OKeh between 1923 and 1928.

And to again emphasize these things can be found: there’s a copy of one Andrej Gellert record for sale on discogs for $7.67 + shipping.

That’s about all the time I have today to screw around with early recordings. If I come back around again with more tidbits like this, don’t be surprised.

The camera pans all over the Mayo Civic Center as PCW is on the air!

Spotlights move back and forth through the crowd.

Crowd: PCW!…PCW!…PCW!…

Cut to ringside where ‘The Voice of PCW’ Johnny Suave stands inside the ring.

Johnny Suave: Hello everyone! Welcome to Political Championship Wrestling!

Crowd: PCW!…PCW!…PCW!…

Johnny Suave: I am Johnny Suave. ‘Low Level New York Times Report Trying to Make a Name for Herself’ Colleen Crowder will not be here tonight because she’s been banned after all the Russian Collusion stuff that went down last week. Tonight, we are at the Mayo Civic Center in Rochester, Minnesota for another night of political wrestling action!

But first, Suave goes to PCW owner Dawn McGill’s earlier arrival at the Mayo Civic Center.

EARLIER TONIGHT McGill exits her rental vehicle. In one hand, she has her carrying bag. In the other, she appears to have a whip.

Nicholas Tarkowski also exits the car. He absolutely does not want to be there. Why?

REPLAY: The Final Insult

Adam Schiff (CA-Progressive Alliance) calls out Dawn McGill and Corrina Romanov. Schiff states he doesn’t care what Robert Mueller says, he’s found proof of Russian Collusion right here in PCW. He accuses McGill of being blackmailed by Russian referee Romanov into giving her job back and giving her a promotion.

Jerry Nadler (NY-Progressive Alliance) says Tarkowski found evidence in McGill’s office of Russian Collusion. Salacious photos of McGill and a letter that references both McGill and Romanov demanding money.

The Guild of Low-Level Reporters and Conservative Inc. both believe it’s collusion.

Jerry Nadler: There’s collusion all right…there’s collusion everywhere, I tell ya…everywhere!

Now the spotlight turns to McGill and Romanov.

Dawn McGill: it’s not Russian Collusion, you dolt. It’s a makeover. Both Corrina and myself got makeovers.

McGill holds up the ‘letter demanding money.’

Dawn McGill: This is a ‘past due’ letter from the spa because…oops…I forgot to pay the bill on time.

McGill holds up one of the ‘compromising’ photos.

Dawn McGill: And this is a photo from a recent photoshoot I had taken to celebrate the fact that I’ve lost over thirty pounds…

Tarkowski just wants to go home and crawl into a hole.

Dawn McGill: No. You snuck into my office when I wasn’t there and rifled through my stuff. It’s not going to be that easy.

Nicholas Tarkowski: But-

*CRRRACK*

Tarkowski jumps several inches into the air at the sound of McGill’s whip cracking by his ear.

Dawn McGill (in no mood to debate this): Now!

McGill leads the former intern past the half-hearted protest from the Guild of Low Level Reporters Trying to Make a Name for Themselves: Colleen Crowder (NY Times), Dan Miller (Washington Post), and Sharon Johns (CNN)…

The Guild (monotone, unenergetic): Let us in…let us in…

…and enters the building.

Cut back to Suave.

Johnny Suave: What does McGill have in mind for Tarkowski tonight?

*CRRRACK*

Nicholas Tarkowski’s Voice: ARARRGGHHHHHH!

Johnny Suave: We’re going to find out soon enough. Back after these messages.

========================

**COMMERCIAL BREAK**

A package of Skank Mitchell’s Awesomely Awesome Beef Jerky is superimposed in the middle of a supermarket checkout line.

Announcer: Skank Mitchell’s Awesomely Awesome Beef Jerky presents *BLEEP*-ing with McGill.

Dawn McGill is pushing a shopping cart towards the express register for 10 items and under. Her four year old daughter Eva is riding inside the cart. Just as she’s about to reach the cashier, some guy barges through with a full shopping cart and literally pushes the other customers out of his way. He bangs into Dawn’s cart and cuts in front of her.

Eva McGill: Ow, Mommy! That man ran into us!

Dawn McGill: It’s okay, dear.   I’m sure it was just an accident-

The guy then turns to Dawn and sneers.

Jerk Man: Hey, do you mind keeping your kid quiet. I’m in a hurry here.

Dawn begins to fume as the man turns back around and starts loading up the express lane with his groceries. Of course, the express lane register isn’t built for people with an overabundance of groceries so he quickly runs out of space to put his stuff.

The guy then turns on the poor girl running the register.

Jerk Man: Come on, let’s go! I don’t have all day.

Finally, Dawn taps the man on the back of his shoulder.

He whips around.

Jerk Man (nearly shouting): WHAT-oooooooooof…

Dawn knees him in the groin. Then she takes a side headlock and DDT’s the jerk on the hard grocery store floor.

The surrounding customers waiting in line break out in applause.

Final scene: a package of Skank Mitchell’s Awesomely Awesome Beef Jerky superimposed over the man unconscious on the ground with blood coming out of his forehead.

Announcer: Skank Mitchell’s Awesomely Awesome Beef Jerky. Feed your irrationally foolish side.

========================

Johnny Suave: We are back. Let’s go backstage for this word from the SEC.

SEC SEGMENT At the Corporate Sports-entertainment Programming Nation’s special SEC-only set backstage, Reese Anderson and Rebecca Morris first bring out the challengers in next week’s PCW Tag Team Title match between the champions Island of Misfit Wrestlers…Rah and ‘The Luchador with Insanely Poor Oral Hygiene’ Halitosis and the SEC’s ‘Dangerous’ Dan Williams and ‘Dastardly’ Dave Miller.

‘Dastardly’ Dave Miller HT: 6’ 0” WT: 240 / HOME: Columbus, GA FIN: Southern Cross

‘Dangerous’ Dan Williams HT: 6’ 2” WT: 252 / HOME: Wemberly, TX FIN: Devil’s Triangle (Triangle Choke)

Williams and Miller come out with a…victory cake?

‘Dangerous’ Dan Williams: That’s right. We know that come hell or high water, the SEC is leaving the ring next week as the new PCW Tag Team champions.

‘Dastardly’ Dave Miller: It ain’t premature if it actually happens. We’re exhausted from training. We’ve put the time in. It’s going to be an open and shut thing. Make my words, we are the next PCW Tag Team champions.

Williams says they’ll take Rah and Halitosis on now and save them the trouble of showing up at MVWA 89. Miller adds that Rah and Halitosis are too chicken to show up here and-

‘The Luchador with Insanely Poor Oral Hygiene’ Halitosis HT: 5’8, WT: 170 / HOME: Chattanooga, TN FIN: Breath of Death

Rah!: The Sunshine God – motivational speaker by day. Pseudo deity complete with eclectic entourage by night. HT: 6’-8” WT: 295 / HOME: San Diego, CA FIN: Eye of RAHHHHHHH! (Jackknife Powerbomb)

And as if they were magically summoned, Rah and Halitosis appear on the set.

Rah slams Williams face into the ‘victory’ cake.

Halitosis unleashes his horrible bad breath on Miller. Miller grabs his throat and falls off the set.

Regina McGill rips the microphone away from Rebecca Morris while Halitosis shoulder blocks Anderson off the set.

Regina McGill: Well, the party seems to be winding down Rebecca. But it feels so good to be here tonight in Rochester, Minnesota!

McGill says the SEC will be formidable. But if they think Rah and Halitosis are just going to hand their belts over to them at Loose Cannons Unleashed, they are dead wrong.

Regina McGill: We wouldn’t standing here today if we simply gave up at the first sight of adversity. We’ll see you next week. Take our titles…if you can.

Cut back to Suave.

Johnny Suave: The SEC have a ton of momentum on their side right now. But do not underestimate Rah and Halitosis. Both Rah and Halitosis has made a career over being underestimated. They’ve played the underdog role and parlayed that into championships. And Rah is in the best shape of his career.

DAWN McGILL’S OFFICE The camera is situated behind McGill. She reclines comfortably in a black Barcalounger Coss II Wall Proximity Hugger Lay Flat Recliner Chair with a wash cloth covering her eyes, her right foot propped up on the foot rest and adorned with cotton balls in between each toe and the left foot soaking in a foot bath. We see a pair of hands carefully applying red polish to Dawn’s toenails.

Her phone buzzes. Dawn answers.

Dawn McGill: Okay. Send them in.

The door opens and in walks Pelosi (CA-Progressive Alliance) and Grassley (IA-American Patroits). Both stop midway and gaze at something off camera with weird expressions.

The camera pulls back. It’s Nicholas Tarkowski who’s painting Dawn’s toenails and taking great care not to get any polish on her skin.

Nancy Pelosi: Okay. I’m sure there’s something wrong with what I’m watching but I don’t have time to talk about it.

Getting right to business, Pelosi and Grassley have a HUGE favor to ask of McGill tonight.

Dawn McGill: A HUGE favor?

Pelosi explains. The #1 contendership for the Political Universal Title is a complete mess.

Dawn McGill: Wait. I’m sorry, didn’t we have a match here last week that the Ultimate Social Justice Warrior walked out of in a snit?

Nancy Pelosi: Yes. But he did so in protest of you throwing the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals out of the building.

McGill says that should settle the issue then.

Pelosi tries to defuse the situation.

Nancy Pelosi: Charlie Blackwell has already agreed to redo the match.

Grassley confirms Blackwell has indeed agreed to redo the match on the condition that there’s no Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals chicanery and the match is held here.

After a quick two seconds to think about it, McGill agrees. Then her head snaps around…

Dawn McGill: Dammit Nicholas! There better not be any polish anywhere other than on that toenail!

Nicholas Tarkowski: Sorry. Miss McGill. Sir-er-ma’am.

Cut back to Suave at the broadcast desk.

Johnny Suave: You know, I would be willing to volunteer for that job.

Suave moves on to the #1 contender’s match for the PCW Women’s title.

Johnny Suave: Both Lani Harlot and C.J. Lewis have worked real hard to become good at what they do. They are not the most polished wrestlers. They’re still a little rough around the edges. But Harlot and Lewis have built themselves up into the PCW Women’s title picture.  And the winner here tonight faces Yosemite Samantha for the title.

Suave sends it to Kimber Marshall in the ring.

MATCH #1/PCW WOMEN’S TITLE #1 CONTENDER’S MATCH: ‘Queen of the Trailer Park’ Lani Harlot vs. ‘Former Hooter’s Waitress’ C.J. Lewis PCW Ring Announcer Kimber Marshall is in the middle of the ring and ready to go.

Kimber Marshall: Ladies and gentlemen! Our first match tonight is a one fall-

Crowd: ONE fall!

*“Shake Your Foundations”- AC/DC*

Lewis slinks out wearing her “Hooter’s half t-shirt on the ramp.

‘Former Hooter’s Waitress’ C.J. Lewis AGE: 31 / HT: 5’7 WT: 135 / HOME: Conway, NH FIN: Last Round

Lewis heads down to the ring.

Kimber Marshall: And her opponent.

*“Queen of My Double-Wide Trailer”- Sammy Kershaw*

The White Trash Posse lead the ‘Queen of the Trailer Park’ Lani Harlot out to the ring.

‘Queen of the Trailer Park’ Lani Harlot AGE: 33 / HT: 5′ 10″ WT: 118 / HOME: Magnolia, AR FIN: White Trash Compactor VALETS: The White Trash Posse (Shayne and Jaxson)

*DING-DING*

Both women waste no time and exchange heavy blows. Harlot cleans Lewis’s clock and the match quickly degenerates into an all-out free-for-all with no structure whatsoever.

Johnny Suave: This is a brawl- which is a typical Lani Harlot match.

Harlot appears to have the momentum on their side when she unceremoniously dumps Lewis out of the ring. The White Trash Posse (Shayne and Jaxson then get in a few cheap shots on Lewis outside the ring and toss her back in. Harlot lines Lewis up for her submission hold- “The White Trash Compactor.”

Johnny Suave: She’s got Lewis set up. Can Lewis escape?

Yes. At the last second. Lewis tries to play keep away long enough to clear her head and walks right into a Harlot clothesline and falls on her back with a splat. Harlot goes top turnbuckle.   She leaps from the top of the turnbuckle and splashes Lewis.

Johnny Suave: Harlot is all over Lewis. Lewis is having a hard time getting any offense in.

Harlot hooks the legs. One…two…Lewis kicks out. Harlot again hooks the legs. One…two…again Lewis kicks out. Then Harlot blatantly chokes her. The referee tells her break the hold or she’ll be disqualified. This provokes Harlot to the point where she yells back at him but finally complies with the referee and releases Lewis. Lewis can barely get back to her feet. The White Trash Posse get up on the ring apron and jaw with the referee. Harlot sneaks out of the ring and swipes a steel folding chair from ringside. The crowd, sensing that Lewis has no clue what was going on behind her, stands and tries to warn her as Harlot raises the chair in the air with two hands and blasts Lewis over the head with it.

Crowd: HOLY @#$#! HOLY @#$#!

Lewis lingers on her feet for a couple seconds and then collapses to the mat.   Why didn’t the referee see that? He’s still arguing with the White Trash Posse. Harlot covers…one…two…NO!

Johnny Suave: HOLY CRAP! HOW DID C.J. LEWIS KICK OUT OF THAT?

Angry, Harlot cinches in the White Trash Compactor. The referee asks her if she wants to give up. Lewis frantically shakes her head no.

Johnny Suave: It’s not looking good for C.J. Lewis but she’s really close to the ropes.

Lewis tries to free her arms but Harlot has them tightly pulled behind her.

Thunderbolt throws it to a commercial break and promises the conclusion of the match when they return.

===========================

MATCH CONTINUED Suave says they are back. But nothing has really changed. Harlot continues to have Lewis stuck in the White Trash Compactor and she’s putting pressure on her back.

Johnny Suave: Lani Harlot has developed over the years a fantastic submission move with the White Trash Compactor. The question here is now…how long can Lewis hold out. She’s been in the White Trash Compactor for a few minutes now.

Harlot continues to shout ‘ask her…ask her’ to the referee. Lewis stubbornly refuses to tap out.

Johnny Suave: I don’t think there’s any chance C.J. Lewis survives this. Lani’s going to bend her into a pretzel until she finally gives up.

*”Ah Leah”- Donnie Iris*

Johnny Suave: WAIT A MINUTE!

“Queen Cool” Leah Iris AGE: 26 / HT: 5′ 9″ WT: 125 / HOME: Pittsburgh, PA FIN: Pittsburgh Rocker Dropper

Johnny Suave: HERE COMES C.J. LEWIS’S TAG TEAM PARTNER!

Iris is met by Shayne and Jaxson outside the ring. Iris boots Shayne in the balls, then Jaxson. That causes Harlot to release the hold. Iris jumps up to the top turnbuckle and leaps at Shayne…scissors his head…and slams Shayne’s head forward impacting with the floor. Jaxson tries to throw a couple punches. Iris goes to whip Jaxson into the steel ring post but Jaxson reverses at the last second and it’s Iris who hits the ring post.

Back in the ring, Lewis tries to pull herself up. Harlot goes back over to her. White Russian legsweep to Lewis and she’s back on the mat. Harlot wastes no time and slaps on the White Trash Compactor again.

Out of energy, Lewis finally taps out.

The referee immediately calls for the bell.

*DING-DING-DING*

WINNER AND THE #1 CONTENDER FOR THE PCW WOMEN’S TITLE: ‘Queen of the Trailer Park’ Lani Harlot @ 12:25 (9:15 for television)

Johnny Suave: Lani Harlot picks up the dominant victory tonight on PCW Extreme Political TV and she now has her golden ticket to Loose Cannons Unleashed. Harlot gets her rematch with Yosemite Samantha.

Suave sends it backstage.

BACKSTAGE Paige McGillicutty has ‘American Citizen’ Kevin Scott with her.

‘American Citizen’ Kevin Scott – former 2 time PCW Champion, PCW Television Champion, and PCW Tag Team Champion (as Starz N. Stripes). PCW’s Original ‘Rookie Sensation.’ HT: 6′ 3″ WT: 250, HOME: Ottumwa, IA FIN: American Stars and Fujiawa Arm Bar

Topic #1- ‘The One Man Anti Hollywood A-List’ Stone Chism

Scott says Stone Chism is a very good wrestler and will be a tough opponent.

Kevin Scott: But I don’t think about Stone Chism. My focus is getting ready and being in the best shape possible next week. I want the PCW Title. I’ve worked hard to put myself in a position to win the title. And at Loose Cannons Unleashed, I intend to leave the ring as the new PCW champion.

Scott thanks Paige and exits.

PAIGE McGILLICUTTY TALKS WITH YOSEMITE SAMANTHA The challenger for the Women’s title, Yosemite Samantha steps into the shot flanked by all three Hanson Sisters.

Yosemite Samantha “The roughest, toughest, rootinest, shootinest cowgirl who ever crossed the Rio Grande” HT: 5’1″ WT: 105 / HOME: Dodge City, KS FIN: Shotgun Knee/Cannonball Combo

Yosemite Samantha looks as focused as she’s ever been.

Paige senses that and asks her if she’s too focused about her upcoming match at Loose Cannons Unleashed with the ‘Queen of the Trailer Park’ Lani Harlot

Yosemite Samantha: No.

Paige waits for further elaboration. There’s none coming. She continues on and asks if she’s concerned about Harlot’s White Trash Posse interfering in the match.

Yosemite Samantha: No.

Again, Paige waits for further elaboration. Again, there’s none coming. Paige moves on. She asks Yosemite Samantha if she’s going to make any changes in her game plan based on the earlier match she had with Harlot.

Yosemite Samantha: No.

No further elaboration. Finally, Melissa Hanson pipes up.

Melissa Hanson: Paige, Yosemite Samantha will show up with her army at Loose Cannons Unleashed. We will be there as well. If the White Trash Posse wants a war, we’ll be right there fighting.

And with that, Yosemite Samantha and the Hansons depart.

HARLOT BACKSTAGE PROMO ‘Queen of the Trailer Park’ Lani Harlot cuts a promo backstage and talks about Yosemite Samantha’s comments a couple minutes ago.

‘Queen of the Trailer Park’ Lani Harlot HT: 5′ 10″ WT: 118 / HOME: Magnolia, AR FIN: White Trash Compactor

Harlot says Yosemite Samantha didn’t say much of anything.

Lani Harlot: It seems to me that Yosemite Samantha is letting the pressure get to her. She’s unhinged. She’s deranged. She’s not going to be able to keep it together. I’ve traveled all over the Midwest. I’ve wrestled in just about every atmosphere there is. I know what it takes to be a champion. When Yosemite Samantha loses it, you can bet that I’ll be there and ready to react.

Harlot adds it takes a lot more than funneling pure rage and emotion to win a match. She says you need heart, a gameplan, and composure.

Lani Harlot: When going gets tough, who will prevail? Brains will prevail over brawn everytime.

Cut back to Suave.

Johnny Suave: We are definitely looking at a brawl next week between Lani Harlot and Yosemite Samantha. But Lani is right. You can ride emotion a long ways but Lani’s goal is to take Yosemite Samantha’s emotions and somehow turn it against her. This is where Harlot has really improved over the past couple of years.

Cut to:

BACK IN DAWN McGILL’S OFFICE Dawn continues to recline in the black Barcalounger Coss II Wall Proximity Hugger Lay Flat Recliner Chair. Now, both feet are propped up and Nicholas Tarkowski is now using a pumice stone and shaving off the calluses and dead skin from the bottom of her feet.

Dawn McGill: Oh yes, yes. That’s good.

Cut back to Suave at the broadcast desk.

Johnny Suave: I’d like to point out again that I would love to volunteer for that job. Back in a moment.

**COMMERCIAL BREAK**

JETFUEL EXTREME DO IT YOURSELF TAX COMMERCIAL [SCENE: the back yard.

A man holds a garden hose in his right hand and is filling up his above ground pool with water. In his other hand, he holds his cell phone and looks down at it- seemingly confused and perplexed.]

Announcer: This is Tim. He thinks you have to be a mastermind to figure out how to do his own taxes.

[A large brown wooden fence encloses the yard. The right wooden gate opens up and Ray McAvay’s manager, ‘No Frills’ Chris Escondido, enters Tim’s back yard. (GRAPHIC: “’No Frills’ Chris Escondido, professional wrestler manager)]

Announcer: So we flew in pro wrestling mastermind ‘No Frill’s’ Chris Escondido to help him.

[Escondido peers over Tim’s shoulder to look at his cell phone.]

Escondido: Dude. What does it say there?

[Close up of Tim’s phone. ‘Did you buy a home?’ Press here.]

Tim: It says…did you buy a home?

Escondido: Did you buy a home?

Tim: Ummm…

[Out of nowhere, ‘Tin Cup’ Ray McAvay runs in and whacks Tim in the back with a Singapore cane.]

Tim: YES! YES! I BOUGHT A HOUSE!

Escondido: Then I’d press there.

Tim: There?

*WHACK*

Tim: AARGGHH! THERE! OKAY, OKAY…I’M PRESSING THE BUTTON!

[Tim, in immense pain and anguish, presses the button. The display turns to a green check mark to indicate that he was successful and a message appears that reads: ‘Congrats, you get a big tax break…and a trip to the emergency room.]

Tim: Huh?

*THWACK*

Tim: AAARGHHHHH!

[Escondido nods down at Tim who’s fallen to his knees in excruciating pain.]

Escondido: Okay then.

[He then turns and walks away.]

Tim: Thanks.

[Graphic on screen: ‘It doesn’t take a f@#$ing genius to do your taxes.’ Tim looks down at his phone and winces in pain from the Singapore caneshots.]

Announcer: Jetfuel Extreme Do It Yourself Tax. Taxes done to the extreme.

FINANCIAL GURU DAVE RAMSEY TALKS WITH NANCY PELOSI (CA-Progressive Alliance), MITCH McCONNELL (KY-American Patriots), KEVIN McCARTHY (CA-American Patriots), and CHUCK SCHUMER (NY-Progressive Alliance) Ramsey talks to the group about getting out of debt.

Ramsey describes in depth the steps needed in order to not only balance the budget but also pay off the national debt.

Pelosi, Schumer, McCarthy, and McConnell all return vacant stares.

Johnny Suave: And that explains everything.

STONE CHISM INTERVIEW Paige McGillicutty talks with PCW Champion ‘The One Man Anti-Hollywood A-List’ Stone Chism about his title defense next week against ‘American Citizen’ Kevin Scott.

‘The One Man Anti-Hollywood A-List’ Stone Chism –3 time PCW Champion and 2 time PCW Television Champion HT: 6′ 2″ WT: 225 / HOME: Hollywood, CA FIN:  Anti-Hollywood Blockbuster

Paige McGillicutty: At Loose Cannons Unleashed, you face an old rival Kevin Scott.

Chism has nothing but good things to say about Kevin Scott.

Stone Chism: Kevin Scott is a two time PCW Champion, a TV Champion, and a Tag Team Champion. He was PCW’s ‘Original Rookie Sensation.’ He’s a great wrestler. But I’ve got a pretty track record of my own. Three time PCW Champion. Two time TV Champion. So what are you going to see. Two great wrestlers vying for the PCW title.

Paige asks about his split from Big Hollywood and does he have any regrets?

Chism says yes. He regrets not breaking away from them when he had the chance in 2014. He knows how they operates and he’s never going back and he’s much happier in PCW.

Stone Chism: So next week, in Washington D.C.- it’s going to be ‘The One Man Anti-Hollywood A-List’ Stone Chism versus ‘American Citizen’ Kevin Scott. Period. The best man is going to win the match and I believe that man is me.

Paige thanks the PCW Champion.

NANCY PELOSI BACKSTAGE Executive Committee President Nancy Pelosi chats with the Ultimate Social Justice Warrior before his match.

She tells him to forget about California’s Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals rules. Pelosi explains in PCW, they are lax when it comes to disqualifying wrestlers unless it is absolutely necessary.

Nancy Pelosi: We can use those rules to our advantage. That’s why Professor McCathy’s Flock will be at ringside for the match. Do you understand?

The Ultimate Social Justice Warrior nods.

Cut back to Suave.

Johnny Suave: All right. PCW Owner Dawn McGill is in the ring to make the special announcement about the Blackwell-Ultimate Social Justice Warrior match.

McGill stands in the ring while Nicholas Tarkowski is trying to center Dawn’s left foot into a bowl to continue the foot bath he was working on before McGill came to the ring.

Dawn McGill: Tonight, we have a special treat for you all. As you know, last week these two men were scheduled to wrestle but a little irritant called the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals tried to horn into match and I had them removed. The match broke down from there. This week, they’re back and we are going to see a number one contender’s match for the title that our own ‘Red Solo Cup’ Ray McAvay has- the Champion of the Political Universe.

McGill says it’s time for the main event. She hands off the microphone to Kimber Marshall…

MAIN EVENT/CHAMPION OF THE POLITICAL UNIVERSE #1 CONTENDER’S MATCH: Charlie Blackwell (Main Street USA) vs. The Ultimate Social Justice Warrior (Progressive Alliance) Kimber takes the cue and goes.

Kimber Marshall: Ladies and gentlemen, our main event tonight is a one fall…

Crowd: ONE fall!

Kimber Marshall: …with the winner becoming the number one contender for the Political Universe Championship title! Introducing first, representing the Progressive Alliance, Professor McCarthy’s Flock, and the Blue Brand…

Crowd: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Professor McCarthy and his Flock come out. The Green World Order (PeaceNick/GreenPete/’Extreme Vegan’ Brock Cole Lee/Peta from PETA), The Young Jerks (Zenk Cryger/James Idahola/their foul mouthed valet Anna), The Deep State, The Antifa, Codee Pink, Emily S.

‘Charlie Wrestling’ Charlie Blackwell HT: 6′ 4″ WT: 215 / HOME: New Braunfels, TX FIN: Tazzmission (Katahajime)

Johnny Suave: The winner faces ‘Red Solo Cup’ Ray McAvay for the Political Universal Title at Loose Cannons Unleashed.

Referee Ron Martin checks both wrestlers and calls for the bell.

*DING-DING*

Johnny Suave: And here we go!

1st MINUTE Blackwell comes out and extends his right hand. USJW left hand meets it. Brief test of strength follows…Blackwell dives to the ground and sweeps USJW’s legs out. Blackwell drops an elbow. Right hand by Blackwell keeps USJW on the deck. USJW up…Blackwell’s right hand sends him right back down.   USJW back up. Blackwell rears back and goes for the haymaker. But he misses.

2nd MINUTE USJW jumps and spins, he catches Blackwell with the spinning heel kick. USJW covers…one…t- Blackwell kicks out. Both exchange right hands. Blackwell sends USJW to the corner. Blackwell charges at USJW and drives his shoulder into his midsection. In the corner, Blackwell lands a couple more rights to the midsection. USJW spins him around.

3rd MINUTE USJW throws it at Blackwell and catches him in the face. Knife edged chop to the face by USJW. A second knife edged chop. Three knife edged chops. Blackwell staggers back. Cryger delivers a forearm shot to the back of Blackwell while USJW sets the chair up. He jumps on the chair to the top rope and flips backwards onto Blackwell. Cover…one…two…Blackwell kicks out. Blackwell’s Main Street USA teammates are screaming at the referee about the repeated outside interference.

Johnny Suave: This is going to be the tone for the match. Professor McCarthy knows that PCW allows a little more than the Blue Brand does and they’re going to toe that line as closely as possible.

Boots by USJW. Blackwell tries to get to the ropes.

4th MINUTE USJW takes off from the chair again and drives his legs into Blackwell’s chest. Blackwell drops to a seated position. While USJW occupies the referee, Brock Cole Lee tries to choke out Blackwell. USJW pulls him out from the corner. Cover…one…Blackwell kicks out. ‘American Girl’ Sarah Mae Smith shouts encouragement to Blackwell. Blackwell rakes USJW’s eyes and shoves him back. Blackwell flies in and levels USJW with a forearm shot.

5th MINUTE Blackwell hovers over USJW and flips him off. Then he starts laying in the boots and angrily stomps the hell out of USJW. Blackwell picks up the steel folding chair. *WHAP* He waffles USJW with the chair. *WHAP* USJW spins like a slow moving top. Chair on the ground. Blackwell maneuvers USJW over. DDT!

Thunderbolt Smith: DDT ON THE CHAIR! USJW’S BUSTED WIDE OPEN.

Cover. One…two…USJW kicks out. Blackwell climbs up to the top turnbuckle.

Johnny Suave: Now it’s Blackwell who’s going to fly. But he doesn’t see the GWO nearby.

Actually Blackwell does and realizes the mistake he’s just made. Before he can react, GreenPete and Brock Cole Lee shove Blackwell off the top rope. USJW gets his boot up and Blackwell’s balls run right into it.

Johnny Suave: HOLY CRAP!

Blackwell is bent over at an angle.

Johnny Suave: Yeah, that’s gotta hurt.

6th MINUTE USJW hits a swinging neckbreaker. Cover…one…two…NO! Mike the Mechanic rushes in and makes the save.   USJW grabs the chair. He surfboards it and lands on Blackwell. Cover…one…two…again Mike the Mechanic makes the save. USJW turns to Mike and slugs him. Brock Cole Lee and GreenPete slide under the ropes and also attack Mike the Mechanic.

Farmer John Deere jumps in for Main Street USA.

The Young Jerks, The Deep State, and The Antifa hit the ring.

Johnny Suave: And now the numbers game swings against Blackwell.

Sarah Mae Smith gets flipped into the ring by Codee Pink and Emily S. List. They start stomping away at her.

7th MINUTE-8th MINUTE Professor McCarthy’s Flock maul the outnumbered Main Street USA for the next two minutes until…

Johnny Suave: HERE COMES THE CALVARY!  IT’S THE PCW LOCKER ROOM!

Champion of the Political Universe Ray McAvay, William Daniels Bryan, PCW Champion ‘The One Man Anti-Hollywood A-List’ Stone Chism, ‘American Citizen’ Kevin Scott and the rest of the PCW locker room rush out.

Professor McCarthy’s Flock and the PCW forces battle on the outside. …

9th MINUTE USJW takes an armbar on the left arm of the prone Blackwell. USJW yanks at the arm to deaden it and gets back to his feet. Blackwell also tries to stand but USJW keeps the pressure on the arm. A couple boots keep Blackwell down. USJW pulls him up and whips Blackwell into the ropes. Boot to the gut by USJW doubles Blackwell over. Right hand by USJW sends Blackwell walking back to the ropes. Irish whip sends Blackwell across the ring. USJW bends over for the back body drop- Blackwell stops and DDT’s him.

Johnny Suave: DDT BY BLACKWELL! The Ultimate Social Justice Warrior telegraphed that move badly and you can’t make mistakes like that in a match like this.

10th MINUTE Leg drop by Blackwell. Covers…one…two…NO! USJW gets his foot on the ropes at the last possible second.

Johnny Suave: That was oh so close. So close.

USJW pulls himself up and looks out for help. Professor McCarthy’s Flock is occupied on the floor. Blackwell launches himself forward, arm outstretched, and decapitates USJW with the Lariat.

Johnny Suave: HOLY CRAP!

Blackwell rolls him over into a small package. One…two…THREE!

Martin calls for the bell.

*DING-DING-DING*

TUNE IN – EXPLORE – RESTORE Amidst a breathtaking scenery, Obonjan regenerates body, mind and soul. Reward yourself with the unique experience of music, yoga, meditation, fitness and sport.

This is just one of the many promises on Obonjan’s website. Marketing, SocialMedia, pictures, program – everything is superbly done – innovative, fresh, glossy, lifestyle-ish.

An adult glamping version of a festival away from the Springbreak Party Islands in Croatia with an extraordinary program of yoga, lectures, workshops, sport and music.

Sounds great – that’s what we wanted to see.

Obonjan is a 1.5 km long island on the Dalmatian coast, about 6 km before Šibenik. Originally conceived as an “island of youth” for boy scouts, the island is very beautiful and really serves all clichés of the Adriatic: turquoise-blue water, pine and olive trees, beaches and the obligatory background sound system for cicadas. With a small ferryboat you can reach the island about one hour from Šibenik harbour. In the 1950s, the scouts left behind a complete infrastructure of ports, houses and streets. All beautifully ingrown and a little wild. In 2016 the island was renovated by a Croatian/English event agency, partly rebuilt and put back into operation.

On the island there are tents for about 500 guests, divided into two categories. The tents are new and of high quality, equipped with AirCon and in the category “Forest Lodge” even with refrigerator, toilet and shower. For the tents of the “Bell Tent” category there are sanitary facilities available as on a camping site. All the public buildings we saw were in order, some of them new or renovated and clean.

Obonjan offers two restaurants and three food stalls (pizza, burgers, curry) for catering. In the big restaurant “The Kitchen” on the highest point of the island there is a breakfast buffet and a large seawater pool. The small restaurant “BOK” at the harbour opens at noon and serves mainly seafood. And then there is a small “Green Bar” which offers tea, smoothies and allegedly veggie / veganes food, but during our one-week visit the bar was mostly empty.

At the harbour there is a bar all day long which is played by DJs in the afternoon and in the evening. At events, parties or concerts there are more bars at the amphitheatre and at the open-air club. Then there is the “Zen-Den”, a wellness, massage and yoga temple and a pavilion for all kinds of events.

The seasonal programme is dedicated and of high quality. Every week a label, publisher, promoter, agency or other organisation takes care of the work. The curator brings together bands, DJs, performers, artists, trainers, coaches, etc. and brings the associated followers to the island. An interesting concept that reads itself thrillingly and holds many surprises and discoveries ready.

Here is an overview of the 2017 programme

Great! An Eco-Hipster-Art-Professional-Chiller-Paradise.

But on closer inspection we were really disturbed by some points, which we don’t want to share here as an offending online review and experience report, but as a call to guests, media and organizers.

If you look at the Obonjan SocialMedia and website and read through the programme, you will get the impression of a committed, sustainable, organic & eco-resort. Unfortunately, this is not the reality.

Disposable dishes, plastic cups, plastic cutlery, plastic straws, coffee to go paper cups even at the breakfast buffet. Not a single solar panel all over the island, no grey water recycling, no waste separation, delivery vans and cars on the island are normal petrol, no call to recycle or any other recognisable spirit for a sustainable island life. And the air-conditioning systems in the tents are not really necessary either.

The team, the employees on Obonjan seem to be recruited partly from unpaid volunteers, who are mostly gastro beginners and also by the bank only minimal-friendly. But the organisation worked out well for us – but good mood feels different.

Vegetarian or even vegan dishes are scarce. In the restaurants and stalls there are hardly any meatless or vegan options (or the veggie paddies at the Burger Grill or the summer rolls at the Green Bar are just randomly off…). If you are not into meat, fish and cheese, you should bring enough food from the mainland, otherwise it could get cramped. Anyway – Basically the food was good to OK everywhere.

At some bars, menus and drinks disappear inexplicably and drinks seem to be charged according to a kind of daily rate; especially the later the evening, the more volatile the prices can become. And watch out for the Beer/Lemonade Mix Shandy – then you will soon have two drinks on your bill: a small beer and a lemonade = 2 x 36 kuna / 9,80 € – without tip: -) Tricky is the payment even if you haven’t brought enough kuna. But it gets complicated when you pay in € and get Kuna change back. Then it becomes expensive and here too there are different, suboptimal exchange rates.

In the little shop with limited, completely commercial offer and prices like at the bar there is a ban on photos. On demand: why? … there’s the answer “Because my boss said so.” Which, by the way, is something you get more often as a curious guest.

The prices are not cheap all over the island.

Beer 0,3l = 35 Kuna / 4,70 € Beer 0,5l = 52 Kuna / 7 € Corona 48 Kuna / 6,50 € Cuba Libre 85 Kuna / 11,50 € Burger 65 Kuna / 8,80 € Pizza 85 Kuna / 11,50 € Curry 90 Kuna / 12 € Breakfast buffet 100 Kuna / 13,50 € Small Water 20 Kuna / 2,70 €

But hey – it’s an island and not the mainland, every can of beer is brought by ship.

All this is not dramatic and doesn’t deserve a rip-off stamp.

The somewhat „Mediterranean“ gastronomy practise has to be taken sporty and nobody can be really good and friendly all the time. But the impression transported by the Obonjan communication of an Eco Village, which is operated only by yogis, gurus, hedonists, vegans and mindful eco guerrillas, we see then nevertheless as genuine label fraud.

The people we met in Obonjan were just as amazed and disappointed about all the mentioned non-ecological points. Obonjan manages to bring a great, open, interesting and mixed audience to the island and then disappoints on the spot with small and big failures, which leave a more than bland aftertaste. Obonjan could be so much more.

Obonjan could be a lighthouse for the entire tourism industry of the Adriatic Sea. The advertising for this has already been placed, and the appropriate guests have already arrived.

“The spirits I called…”

Many of the Obonjan visitors we spoke to agreed that there will be a lot of feedback when you bring such an environmentally conscious target group to the island and then do not fulfill expectations. The pressure on the organizers must be big. The complaints, concerns and comments must take on alarming proportions. All curators have to be asked whether they will continue to support this or demand changes.

You can’t have a wellness / ecological festival, throwing around with disposable dishes and hardly offering veggie food without an echo of the guests?

Actually we are Obonjan fans. But just disappointed Obonjan fans. As a real eco island, the 2018 season might be fully booked already – think about it.

The Obonjan project is a respectable feat of strength, the organisation, the infrastructure, the booking, all this is not stomped out of the ground in one season. We realize that. In the second year the shop seems to be running a little more smoothly, but in many areas there is still room to move upwards.

We could imagine going back to Obonjan again. But next time we’ll ask what has changed. And whether the eco awareness yoga meditation marketing show has perhaps even become a reality by now. We wish the whole Obonjan team much success for the third and many more years.

Go-bonjan! www.obonjan-island.com

Tips for the Obonjan trip: Bring: Eye mask (the tents are bright), Ohropax (the tent walls are thin: -). Food/Beverage: a bottle of wine, a few beers, some snacks and a couple of water bottles are allowed and useful. Of course, the organizers also have to earn money, but you can also bring along what you consume in the tent. Enough Kuna: the exchange rates on the island can become crazy. Except in the two restaurants, cash is used everywhere. There is an ATM on the island, but we didn’t try it. Internet / W-Lan: There are top free wifi almost everywhere on the island. Water: The tab water is drinkable. Children: Obonjan is not really meant for families / children. Guests: The promoters come from the UK, so most of the guests are british but we’ve met people from all over the world. Arrival with your own car / parking lot in Sibenik: We drove with our own car from Munich to Sibenik and after 8 hours of driving we stayed for one night in Hotel Jure **** / Solaris Beach Resort (170 € double room incl. breakfast). The resort has a large, guarded parking lot and we have parked the car there for a week (7 € / day) Taxi / Bus: From the resort there is a bus for 17 Kuna p. P. to Sibenik. With Uber the trip from Sibenik Harbour to the hotel costs 45 kuna, taxis in the city wanted three times as much for the same trip – they just haven’t heard the gong and keep trying to advantage from tourists.

Judy Rosenblatt in Woman Before a Glass, credit of Robert Workman.

Peggy Guggenheim was an extraordinary woman. Her father, Benjamin Guggenheim drowned when the Titanic sank, and Peggy mourned his loss for the rest of her life. As she states early in Lanie Robertson’s play Woman Before A Glass, Benjamin was just a millionaire, unlike his six brothers who were billionaires, but she didn’t let that hold her back and in 1919, aged 21, Peggy inherited $2.5million (about $35 million in today’s money) which she spent putting together one of the greatest collections of modern art the world has ever seen.

Whilst in Paris just before the war, she was buying a picture a week which meant that the artists could survive – as Peggy says in the play “what good’s a dead artist”! She also went to bed with a lot of them – it’s said that she may have slept with over a thousand men! They were mainly writers, artists and intellectuals – amongst them were Samuel Beckett, Max Ernst (who she married) and ELT Mesens.

By the time she died in 1979, she had championed the likes of Jackson Pollock, Kandinsky and had amassed ten Picasso’s and three Dali’s amongst many, many other great works of modern art. Add this to the problems she had with her two dysfunctional children Sinbad and Pegeen and there’s a major story to be told but I’m not convinced that Robertson’s 2005 one-woman play quite tells it.

It’s Venice in 1963 and Guggenheim played by Judy Rosenblatt bursts onto Erika Rodriguez’s superb set depicting Guggenheim’s 18th-century canal-side palazzo talking nineteen to the dozen as the President of Italy is arriving to see her collection and there’s a TV crew in the house. One of the big problems with one-person shows is who does the character talk to? In this case, Guggenheim/Rosenblatt breaks the fourth wall and addresses the audience as if they’re in her home and are welcome guests. This is a clever device and allows Rosenblatt to occasionally address individuals in the audience to joke with them and she has someone to focus which works superbly in the tiny Jermyn Street space. Rosenblatt doesn’t just play Peggy – she inhabits her which is not surprising as she played her in the 2011 New York revival. She delivers some superb lines and she fires them off like a jammed machine gun with attitude. Guggenheim is vain, self-centred and her hedonistic lifestyle meant she had little time for her children’s upbringing.

However, when the zingy one-liners and interesting anecdotes stop coming, this is a very melancholy story as having lived her life to the full, she’s left alone in Venice desperately trying sort out where her collection will be displayed after her death. She’s also desperate to rebuild her relationship with Pegeen when she comes to visit. Peggy is keen to extol her daughter’s artistic talents but deep down she knows she’s kidding herself. The melancholy mood is compounded by the playing of some sombre Miles Davis music during the sometimes over-long blackouts when Rosenblatt goes off for a costume change.

Whilst I enjoyed Rosenblatt’s performance, the character’s razor-sharp New York wit and Austin Pendleton’s direction, it really just scratches the surface of this amazing woman’s life. At under ninety minutes without an interval, it’s a pleasant evening at the theatre but I just wish the writer could have peeled away the layers and shown us what lay beneath.

Review by Alan Fitter

After moving to Venice in the late 1940s, Peggy Guggenheim quickly became one of its most glamorous and scandalous residents. Guggenheim collected both art and artists; she was married to pioneering Dadaist Max Ernst, the lover of Samuel Beckett, and champion of Jackson Pollock and Pablo Picasso.

This energetic one-woman show captures Peggy Guggenheim’s punky spirit and examines her choice to live life on her own terms. She dedicated her life to introducing like-minded artists, saving priceless masterpieces, and assembling the world’s finest collection of 20th Century art in her Venetian Palazzo, but at what personal cost? Set in Venice, the audience will see Guggenheim at four different moments in time: 1963, 1965, 1967 and 1968. Each year offers a snapshot into her vibrant life as she experiences a political situation, an exhibition opening, a loss and a touching moment of reflection.

Woman Before A Glass, Jermyn Street Theatre

I review Scandal Season Opene Woman Before a Glass @@JSTheatre quite simply "Judy Rosenblatt is Guggenheim"

Lanie Robertson’s 2005 bio-monologue about Peggy Guggenheim could be just another ‘poor rich girl’ tale but in Guggenheim and in the performance from Judy Rosenblatt we see not only a tale of a woman who singlehandedly ensured modern art survived but also changed the way people looked at how art should be.

Guggenheim may have money and priceless works of art but she has no class; drunkenly…
