Bards on the Bay set for May 9 and 10
April 30, 2008
TOB Playwright-in-Residence, Doug Larche calls it “A Northwoods Miracle; a creative and artistic treasure that delights me every year.” The sixth annual Bards on the Bay Northwoods Playwrights Festival will be held at UW-Marinette Friday and Saturday, May 9 and 10 at 7:00 pm in the Herbert L. Williams Theatre. It will feature six brand new plays written by area residents in this spring’s workshop - four comedy-dramas, one psychological drama, and a full-length verse drama based on the paintings and poetry of local artist and playwright, Jan Ross Deetjen, including a multi-media show of her works. There is also a special exhibit of her paintings and sculpture in the lobby of the UW-Marinette Fine Arts Building, entitled Paint and Ink, which will be on display until May 11. While the event is free and open to the public, free will donations are appreciated.
The Bards on the Bay Northwoods Playwrights Workshop and Festival is a project of Theatre on the Bay and the Departments of Continuing Education and Communication and Theatre Arts at UW-Marinette. Led by TOB Artistic Director, Dr. Doug Larche, it is based, in part, on the successful Playwrights Workshops of at the University of Iowa, Oxford University and Yale University (all of which Larche was a member), and the Prairie Playwright Festival of Des Moines, Iowa, of which he was the founding Artistic Director. Designed for beginning, emerging and veteran playwrights, Bards offers an exercise-rich workshop setting to stimulate creativity, unlock voice, encourage exploration, and give feedback to the efforts of playwrights, primarily designed to provide a stage for the voices of the Northwoods.
This spring’s playwriting workshop has produced six new plays, bringing the total to nearly forty new original plays since the festival’s inauguration six years ago. “Bards on the Bay is healthy, vibrant, and strong,” Larche added. “We hope the community comes out to support this exciting celebration of creativity.” This year’s plays will be performed as readers’ theatres and choral readings by members of the UW-Marinette Literature in Performance class, Bards on the Bay Workshop members and Theatre on the Bay actors.
The five shorter plays will be presented at 7:00 pm, followed by an intermission. The final, longer play will begin at approximately 8:45 and last about an hour. The honored playwrights and their new plays are:
I. “The Cocktail Party” by Richard B. Peterson, is an urbane and up-to-the-minute relational satire based on an unbelievable real life situation.
II. “Leilani’s Nightmare” by William Shepard, is a journey in and out of the realities of two senior citizens, somewhere between dreams, remembrances and wishing upon a star.
III. “Dancing in the Dark” by Tristan Schuh is the adult memoir of three people revisiting their past and their interwoven therapies seeking healing and light.
IV. “Seven Mattresses” by Louis Hanson, is a modern epic set in a Fairy Tale far away and long ago but right next door and down the street.
V. “Verne and Charlene” by Jan Ross Deetjen, is the story of a mature couple suspended on the road somewhere between the UP and the rest of America, where the winter whiteout is not the only barrier that they face.
VI. “Paint and Ink” by Dr. Doug Larche, is a choral reading celebrating the visual and verbal art and the interesting and challenging life of local octogenarian, Jan Ross Deetjen. It includes poetry from her current book Imagine, prose from her recent book Stone Baby, music, projections of her painting and sculpture, and family visits on stage. This performance is made possible by a special grant from Mary Staudenmaier and Mary Blazer, with the support of the Derusha Foundation for AODE.
The acting company includes UW-Marinette actors from America and from several nations, including Sara Bertagnoli, Jim Vincent, (Menominee); Becky Bishop, Samantha Ozechowski, (Oconto); David Breese, Esther Michaels, Abbie Phillipo, Nick Swenty (Marinette), Ed Lynch (Wausaukee); and Amanda Wickman (Abrams); as well as Rodrigo Barahona (Costa Rica); Louise Marchand-Paris and Isabelle Lemoine (France); Kesinee “Pum” Prajongtat, Passapong “Deer” Piromkam, and Pimsiri “Aey” Suwannimitr (Thailand); Ga-Hyun Kim (South Korea); Nadia Alomari (Jordan); Qisthas Noe’man ( Indonesia); Takanori Sato (Japan); and Renata Lima (Brazil); with rehearsal assistance from Heidi Bachmann (Switzerland); Na-ri Yi (South Korea); Mirali Mirzayev (Azerbaijan); as well as Sam Larsh (Peshtigo) and Jill Roehm (Marinette).

Lean Manufacturing Courses Scheduled starting April 29
April 22, 2008
UW-Marinette Continuing Education will offer two courses in Lean Manufacturing starting in May. Taught by Scott Haulotte, “Lean Manufacturing” focuses on the tools, techniques, concepts and principles of Lean. While most of the emphasis is on the manufacturing environment, examples from administrative functions are also used to explain key concepts. Lean implementation is a MAJOR change initiative and as such, senior leadership must be completely committed to achieve success. All “best practices” in leading significant change efforts apply to Lean. The emphasis on all classes will be specific “hands on” learning leaving the participants with the skills to immediately take back to their organizations and generate more value to their customers and higher profits.
The “5S system for Workplace Organization” is set for Tuesday, April 29 & Thursday, May 1 from 6 - 8 pm. This four-hour course is $210.
“5S” is the foundation for a disciplined approach to improving and standardizing the physical condition of the work areas (shop floor as well as front office). Participants will learn the concepts of 5S and effective implementation techniques by performing a 5S event in their company. Topics include: 5S – Sort; 5S – Straighten; 5S – Shine; 5S – Standardize; 5S – Sustain; Implementation of 5S.
Value Stream Mapping will be offered Tuesday, May 6, 8 & 13 from 6 - 9 pm. This nine-hour course is $415.
Participants will learn the basics of Value Stream Mapping (VSM) and then will apply these concepts to build a Current State Map. VSM is a tool that helps people to see and understand the flow of material and information as a product makes its way through the value stream. This is hands-on training and participants will complete a full VSM in the classroom and leave with the skills needed to conduct a VSM event on any selected process. Topics include: Preparation for building a Current State Value Stream Map; How to build a Current State Map (principles, concepts, techniques); Identifying and removing waste from the process; Creating a future vision; Plan generation to achieve the vision.

Student Art on Display at UW-Marinette
April 22, 2008
The annual UW-Marinette spring art exhibit of student works, which includes calligraphy, wood and linoleum block prints, and oil paintings, is on display until commencement on May 21 in the Fine Arts Building art gallery.
Students from the ART 111 “Two Dimensional Design” class exhibiting are Kayla Bauer, Sean Gardon (Peshtigo); Kira Brown, Jessica Bruso, Glenn Trybom (Marinette); Terry Eager (Florence); Laura Egilsson (Menominee); George Gocht (Crivitz); Aaron Johnston (Porterfield); and Frank Oczus, Jr. (Stephenson, MI).
Students exhibiting from the ART 125 “Oil Painting” class are Len Allgeyer, Kyle Dettman (Menominee); Debra Hanson-Bayerl (Wallace, MI); Nick Jenquin (Marinette); Amber Johnston (Porterfield); and Bauer, Egilsson, and Trybom.
“We have a number of very talented art majors at UW-Marinette at this time,” says art professor James LaMalfa. “Some will be moving on to four-year institutions but they are well-grounded in the fundamentals of art. Several are working well beyond sophomore level.”
As part of the display, the gallery map case features “Tools of the Trade,” a small educational display by LaMalfa.
“The tools are woodcutting gouges and V vieners used to carve a design in a wood block, which when inked, produces a wood cut. There is a block in the case carved by Glenn Trybom and his print from it is on the left wall. Other tools used for woodcuts are shown, for example a gelatin brayer, a roller that transfers oil based ink from a palette to the block. The rice paper is laid on the block and digital pressure used to transfer the image via a wooden paddle. The smaller linoleum blocks are also included and are cut with similar tools. These tools are used in the ART 111, the Two Dimensional Design class,” said LaMalfa.
“The second set of tools are bristle brushes used in the Art 125 Oil Painting class. Also used in oil painting are painting knives, a text book and color wheel. Four tubes of oil paint complete the display,” said LaMalfa.
In addition, the exhibit features works by LaMalfa and students which have been accepted for publication in this year’s campus arts journal, Northern Lights.
The student art exhibit was juried by Ernie Pleger, a well-known watercolorist from Marinette. The students who received cash awards will be announced at the Northern Lights reception in the art gallery at noon on April 25.
Contributors to Northern Lights include Darwin Adams, Katie Olson, Stephanie Thompson (Menominee); Ashley Beaudoin, Richard B. Peterson (Marinette); Morgan Fruehling (Escanaba.

TOB Summer Fundraising Campaign
April 15, 2008
UW-Marinette’s Theatre on the Bay has announced an exciting 42nd summer season and to prepare for that season, fundraising is now taking place.
Theatre on the Bay attracts business transplants and tourists who help the local economy grow. "Theatre on the Bay and the Children’s Theatre are mainstays in our community," says University Relations Director Maureen Frawley," and for the past 42 years, area businesses and patrons have come forward to acknowledge the importance of live theatre for our area."
Theatre on the Bay, directed by Dr. Doug Larche will present two plays including Fools on June 27 - 30 and July 4 - 7, and Grease July 25 – 28 & August 1 - 4.
Fools is a comedy by Neil Simon that has not been on the TOB stage since 1986. An endearing piece of lunacy, Fools will have audiences laughing through the whole evening as the residents in the village of Kulyenchikov cope with a curse of ignorance that was put on them two hundred years ago because Sophia Zubritsky would not marry the young, illiterate Yousekevitch.
Grease by Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey is a musical spoof on 1950’s rock ‘n’ roll culture and a nostalgia trip back to the days of well-greased ducktails, poodle skirts and souped-up cars at the drive-in.
Theatre on the Bay will also present the Bards on the Bay Northwoods Playwrights’ Festival May 9 and 10. The festival is a culmination of the Continuing Education Playwrights’ Workshop led by Dr. Doug Larche during the spring semester.
The Continuing Education Children’s Theatre program has scheduled James and the Giant Peach by Roald Dahl with dramatization by Richard George. It is in production now with a cast of 45 directed by Jamie Schwaba and will be presented June 7 - 8 and 13 - 15.
Theatre on the Bay and the UW-Marinette’s Continuing Education Children's Theatre depend on the support of the community through ticket sales and donations. The campus, Marinette County and the State of Wisconsin provide a stage, basic equipment, maintenance, publicity services and business management, but no other support for productions. The production budget for the summer includes royalties, scripts, orchestra, director and staff, set design and construction, lighting, sound, costumes, makeup, and maintenance, repair and replacement of equipment and promotional materials.
In exchange for donations, businesses and individuals may advertise or have their name listed in the summer program booklet, which is seen by nearly 3000 patrons during the summer. In addition to donations, special "Above-the-Title sponsorships are available which include one's business listed in the program booklet and in all promotional materials and press releases for the play one chooses to sponsor. Contributions to the TOB endowment are also being accepted.
To make a donation, arrange an advertisement, become a sponsor, or make an endowment contribution, contact Maureen Frawley at UW-Marinette, 715-735-4310 or email maureen.frawley@uwc.edu. The deadline for inclusion in the TOB summer program booklet is April 25.

West Shore Chorale Spring Concerts April 20 and 27
April 14, 2008
The West Shore Chorale will perform Beethoven's Mass in C Op. 86 April 20 at UW-Marinette's Herbert L. Williams Theatre and April 27 at Holy Spirit Catholic Church in Menominee.
Performance time is 7:30 pm for both concerts under the direction of David Giebler, associate professor of music at UW-Marinette with the Bay Shore Orchestra and James Martell, organ.
The Mass in C Major was written in 1807 commissioned by Prince Nikolaus Esterházy to celebrate the name day of the Prince’s wife, an annual tradition established by composer Joseph Haydn. The prince seemed not to appreciate the work, causing Beethoven to leave his court the same day as the performance and rededicate the work to Prince Ferdinand Kinsky instead.
Mass in C Major was Beethoven’s first setting of religious texts and reflects his emotional struggles as he dealt with his growing deafness. Born in 1770, he had overcome a childhood marked by destitution, discord and distress with strength of will and tremendous talent. But by 1800, he became aware that his hearing was deteriorating, threatening not only his musical life, but his social and personal life as well. Struggling with depression, he wrote a testament to his two brothers in 1802 saying “Such incidents drove me almost to despair; a little more of that and I would have ended my life—it was only my art that held me back. Ah, it seemed to me impossible to leave the world until I had brought forth all that I felt was within me. So I endured this wretched existence.”
In the Mass in C, we hear Beethoven persevering over adversity. It also marks the beginning of an exceptionally creative period in his life where he produced works such as the Missa Solemnis that established his place in the pantheon of composers.
His treatment of the texts for the Mass in C Major contain fugal settings similar to Haydn’s but also, a more original interpretation in his use of solo quartets to provide contrasts of color, texture and dynamics. He uses dynamic extremes, wide leaps in vocal lines and unison sections contrasting with contrapuntal passages along with harmonic and rhythmic change. The listener seems to experience Beethoven’s emotional turmoil and desires for mercy and peace through his music.
Tickets are $5 and $2 for the performance at UW-Marinette. A freewill donation is appreciated for the concert at Holy Spirit. Tickets may be purchased at the main reception desk at UW-Marinette or by calling 735-4300. They will also be available at the door at UW-Marinette.

Pro Arte Program April 6 at UW-Marinette
April 4, 2008
Bach, Britten and Beethoven are on the program to be performed by members of the UW-Madison's Pro Arte Quartet April 6 at UW-Marinette. The chamber music concert will be presented at 7:30 pm in the Herbert L. Williams Theatre. Admission is $5 for the general public and $2 for students and seniors by calling 735-4313. Tickets are also available at the door.
The program includes Partita No. 2 in D Minor for Solo Violin by Johann Sebastian Bach. Suite No 2, Op. 80 for Solo Cello by Benjamin Britten, and String Trio in G Major, Op. 9, No. 1 by Ludwig van Beethoven.
Bach's Partita No. 2 in D Minor is part of a set of sonatas and partitas that were composed in 1720 while living in Köthen, Germany. He also composed his Brandenburg Concertos, concerto for two violins and cello suites about the same time. The manuscript for his Partita No. 2 was nearly lost until saved from being used as butcher paper.
The five movement work ends with the famous "chaconne' which is considered a pinnacle of the solo violin repertoire in that it covers practically every aspect of violin-playing known during Bach's time and thus it is among the most difficult pieces to play for that instrument.
Britten's cello suite was written in 1967 for his friend, Mstislav Rostropovich, a world-famous and remarkably gifted cellist. It is a demanding work requiring a very high level of technical skill and exploiting the musical range of the cello.
Beethoven wrote his String Trio in G Major between 1797 and 1798. Its dynamic range and knife-edge precision required by the performers make this a very exciting work to hear.
The Pro Arte Quartet will perform as a trio for Sunday's concert due to a birth in the family of the first violinist.
Arrangements for this event were made by the UW-Marinette Music Department through the UW-Madison Arts Outreach Program with funding by a gift from the James Martell family of Marinette.

Community Forum on Positive Psychology at UW-Marinette April 14
April 1, 2008
Dr. Tirza Shulman will present a community forum on “Positive Psychology” Monday, April 14 at 7:30 pm in M-117 of the Main Building at UW-Marinette.
“Modern psychology has primarily focused on the fragilities of the human condition; examining stressors, mental illness, abuse, death, divorce,” says Shulman. “Clearly these things all have consequences and are important, and psychology as a field has made huge strides in understanding how and why these things impact us. Recently however, a new type of psychology has begun to emerge. This field examines existing human strengths, studying what makes people happy, healthy, fulfilled, optimistic so we can build on these strengths. My talk will focus on some of the findings from positive psychology, what we can do as individuals to build on our own strengths, and the psychological and physical benefits that can come from focusing on these positive aspects.”
Shulman joined the faculty in the fall of 2006 following the successful completion of her PhD program at Kansas State University. Her research interests include individual differences in affect regulation, self-regulation and health outcomes, and emotional intelligence.
Community Forums at UW-Marinette are sponsored by the UW-Marinette Foundation and are free and open to the public.
