Show Page 14 OREM TIMES Thursday, September 18, 2008 Lww llllrilliii'itjiriiiililiiTifcMlrMiirir.lliirTilMf: Hale Center Theater Orem Aida Hale Center Theater Orem will present Elton John and Tim Rice's "Aida" Sept. 23 to Nov. 22, with performances beginning each evening at 7:30 p.m. Saturday matinees are scheduled each Saturday (with the exception of October 5th) at 3:30 p.m. Ticket prices range from $13.50 to $17.50, depending on night and seating location. Tickets may be purchased by calling the box office at 226-8600. 226-8600. "Aida" is the love story of Radames, a soldier for the Pharaoh, Pha-raoh, who chooses Aida from a group of Nubian Slaves as a gift to Amneris, the Pharaoh's daughter, whom he has been arranged to marry. He soon falls in love with Aida, not knowing that she is actually a Nubian princess. This Grammy and multiple Tony Award winning musical musi-cal combines the music of Elton John and the lyrics of Tim Rice, lyricist for audience favorites like "Beauty and te Beast," "Evita," and "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat." Director Dave Tinney said while HCTO's production of "Aida" will feature plenty of eye candy with its "Punk rock with a touch of Egyptian" costumes, cos-tumes, minimalistic fluid sets, and "Rock OperaMusical theater the-ater fusion" technical aspects, audience members will be struck mostly by the powerful storytelling told by the actors and director. Tinney, who also choreographed choreo-graphed the show, said that Egypt is the background for a modern love story. The language lan-guage and music of the show are modern, yet the setting is in Ancient Egypt. The role of Aida will be played alternately by Lita Little Giddons and Josephine Scere. Lone Peak H.S.

Before Hitchcock's sus-penseful sus-penseful film was released in 1954, Frederick Knott's play "Dial M for Murder" captivated capti-vated audiences in London and on Broadway with its shocking shock-ing tale of a husband's plot to eliminate his wife. As the student actors bring the 1950s London-based story to life, the audience will follow along, trying to crack the murder mur-der mystery case with Inspector Inspec-tor Hubbard. "Dial M For Murder" is based on the "film noir" genre of the '40s and '50s, capturing the atmosphere of classic mystery mys-tery films. The characteristic sharp light angles and movement move-ment of the camera in these films will be recreated with the use of stage lighting and the movement of the set on a revolving stage. Murphy Smith will play the role of Tony Wendice, the man who hires the murderer, with Jenny Latimer as his wife, M argot; Andrew Beenstra as Max Halliday and Benjamin King as Inspector Hubbard. The production staff includes in-cludes Janet L. Swenson, artistic artis-tic director; Rory R. Scanlon, scenic designer; Catie Gleason, costume designer; Rebecca Thorpe, makeup designer; Amber Am-ber Coyne, lighting designer; Katie Harrel, sound designer; and Dave Mortensen, dramaturge. drama-turge.

Emily Marlowe N0RTH COUNTY STAFF The map has been made, the newspaper has been highlighted, high-lighted, the route has been put on paper and the hunt is on. Our children know if they are awake on time they can go, but there is no time to wait. Wash your face, brush your teeth, throw on a hat and we will meet in the car. We are talking talk-ing Saturday morning garage sales. For me it is not about the cheap prices, or the bargains, it is about the "find." I do not need more things to decorate our home, our children do not need more toys, my husband does not need more items for his garage, but we need to find the "find." Now the find may be a simple photo album, or it could be a matchbox car, but there is always something to be had when you are shopping at a yard sale. Over the years, I have found things of great value. Some people are not aware of the value of their items. You have heard it said, "One man's junk, is another man's treasure." How true this statement is. It is best to shop in a team. One person needs to give the driver the address and directions, direc-tions, while all the while keeping keep-ing their eyes peeled for signs on the side of the road . . . (you will not find many of these in American Fork anymore.) Being Be-ing the person giving directions is difficult; it is a hard job and can be very labor intensive. You also need to decide on the person that will get out of the car at the sales you pull up to and say, "This is questionable." question-able." It will waste too much time if you both get out of the car, so one must go and scout out the possibilities. This is true especially if you have children. Taking them out of their car seats and seat belts can be time consuming, so it is best not to do this task if it is not required. Halfway through your route, you must stop to eat breakfast because there is no way you can take time to eat at home. If you are not one of the first customers at the sale, you could miss out on the find of the day. It is safe to eat breakfast half way through the route, because by this time most of the items in great demand are sold. Now you are on the hunt for the fun stuff. But, still you are on a time schedule. We watch the clock in the drive through window tick away the seconds, as we wait for our sausage biscuits bis-cuits to be served to us through a window. No, this is. not a healthy and delicious breakfast, but it gives us strength to move on through the morning. By 10 in the morning, the excitement, the thrill and the feeling of "today I will find something wonderful," is gone. So, you return home with your treasures, pull out the box of Clorox wipes, disinfect your items and start your day. This past weekend as I had the chance to garage sale with my sister. My husband was out of town with the scouts, and I needed a partner. My sister was not the partner part-ner I had hoped for. Her vision is poor without her glasses; she cannot spot signs on the side of the road, and can't read the fine print in the paper. Needless to say, she forgot her glasses. Her zest for garage ga-rage sales is not that of my husband and myself, so she does not realize how important it is to move with swiftness and speed. But, with the good luck that I carry, the very last house we went to was the find of the day. We each came home with a few treasures, and our day felt complete. The back of my car contained: an old glass windowpane, a rocking chair, a car seat, a few Care Bears and a giant frame to hold the photo M 3 I! i. ii nil 1 , ii H .j iinni fi" YOUR ULTIMATE BUSINESS RESOURCE urn t lUt Cd to a one-dnv moid-flm seminar (or Utah Vollev't hircimm ft rivir knitart C- The irost informative business conference of the year will be addressing our Utah Valleys most important issues.

I would say many treasure were found that morning. Finding good recipes is much like a finding a good garage sale. You can search, cut out all of the recipes you can find, follow fol-low the directions to get to the end result, but sometimes the end result is not as good as you had hoped for. The hunt for a good recipe can be difficult and many of the recipes you will try will end up in the trash. But when you find the "one" you will feel as though you have accomplished ac-complished a great task. I read recipe books and magazines maga-zines like they are novels. I love to read recipes. Even if I never make the food, just reading about it intrigues me. This week, I would like to share with you a recipe that came from a recipe book I found at a garage sale. Most of the recipes in the book are mediocre and not a "find" but, this recipe is worth more than the dollar I paid for the book. I think you will find it is wonderful, won-derful, easy, tasty and most delightful! Until next week's batter chatter, I will wait to hear from you, so I can share your questions ques-tions and recipes with our readers. read-ers. I can be contacted at emiry-marloweconnect2.com. emiry-marloweconnect2.com. Happy 60th birthday to one of the best garage sale "finders" I know my Dad. I love you, Dad!
