Bill's Moment in German Cultural History
- In 1808, we see the birth of Daniel Schreber in Leipzig, Gemany. Schreber noticed people who live in large cities did not the he pleasure and produce of gardens. He came up with the idea of allowing people to use garden plots on the edges of cities not suited for building on, such as rail tracks. The idea has been popular in Germany ever since. They are called Schrebergartens.
- In 1810, the first
Octoberfest takes place in Munich, Germany. It was a massive celebration
of the marriage of Crown Prince Ludwig of Bavaria to Princess Therese of
Saxony-Hildburghausen.
- In 1833, We ;see the
birth of Eugene Langen in Cologne, Gem. He worked on the development of
the internal combustion engine. He also designed the idea of an overhead
monorail. One was built in Wuppertal, Germany in 1901.
- In 1945 we see the death
of Felix Salten. He was the author of the children's story, Bambi.
- And in 1988, we see the death of Felix
Wankel in Lindau, Germany. He is the inventor of the Wankel rotary
automobile engine._______________________________________________________________________

KINOKINOKINO
Wer diese Woche nicht in Argo geht, verpasst einen fantastischen und spannensten Geschichtsfilm , dessen Geschichte vielen nicht gegenwaertig ist,weil die meisten die vielen geiseln, die befreit wurden in Erinnerung haben, nicht aber eine der kuehnsten Befreiungsdramen der Gegenwart. Alan Arkin und John Goodman machen diesen von Ben Afleck sowohl gespielten als auch als regisseur betreuten Film glaubwuerdig. Bis zum Schluss spannend auch wenn man bereits weiss wie es enden wird, UNBEDINGT SEHEN!
Ein leiser Dokumentarfilm kommt diese Woche in die Kinos: Searching for Sugarman, die geschichte eines Saengers, der in den USA schnell in Vergessenheit, jedoch in Suedafrika als Stimme der Veraenderung eines ganzen politischen Systems zum Superstar avancierte und es erst viele Jahre spaeter erfuhr. Dank einiger hartnaeckiger Journalisten und Fans fand man Sugarman, totgeglaubt zur Legende geworden.
NOCH MEHR KULTUR...
Sweeney Todd, eine Oper, weit mehr als ein Musical, das die St. petersburg opera gekonnt auf die schmale Buehen des Palladiumtheaters brachte, kostueme und Buehnenbild wunderbar und die Choreografie bis in den Zuschauerraum, wo sofort Personen im "Keller" landeten, man aber auch wieder auf die Buehne stieg. Stimmlich waren die Figure von Arthur gut gewaehlt, ein unschuldiger und liebender junger Mann, Sweeney Todd perfekt von Peter Kendall Clark verkoerpert und praesentiert. Mit wirrem Haar und den Blick der Rache auf das Publikum gerichtet war man auf seine Untaten gefasst. seine Partnerin brachtedie noetige Komik auf die Buehne, bis zu ihrem bitteren Ende.
Das Eroeffnungskonzert des Florida Orchesters begann wuerdevoll mit der amerikanischen nationalhymne. Beethoven's Overture wurde gefolgt von einer Homage an eine im Sommer verstorbene Blaeserin des Orchesters , dann folgte ein Bernstein Konzert, das die passionierte Pianistin mit viel Enthusiasmus spielte und zum schluss des Konzertabends folgte Schumanns Rheinische Symphonie, ein Blick auf den Rhein und nach Bonn , wo Beethoven geboren und Schumann gestorben sind.

Cirque du Soleil PERFORMANCES open november 8,2012:
Cirque du Soleil ist mit Kooza im Anzug auf Tampa. Dort gibt es bald wieder eine Auffuehrung voller Wagemut und Akrobatik.
Cirque du Soleil ist mit Kooza im Anzug auf Tampa. Dort gibt es bald wieder eine Auffuehrung voller Wagemut und Akrobatik.
The equipment is as simple as it gets: eight chairs and a pedestal. But in this act, the artist uses them to create a 23-foot tower on which to perform a balancing act that displays the human body at the very peak of condition and muscular control.
For the first time in 7 years Cirque du Soleil returns to St. Petersburg
With a big top production
KOOZA Opens November 8, 2012 for a limited engagement Under the white Big Top at Tropicana Field
St Petersburg, FL – Aug. 31, 2012- Cirque du Soleil is thrilled to return to St Petersburg with its big top production, KOOZA. The critically-acclaimed show opens Thursday, November 8 for a limited engagement under the white Big Top at Tropicana Field.
Since its premiere in April of 2007, KOOZA has charmed close to 4 million spectators in North America and Japan. KOOZA will be the 4th big top production to visit the area since 2002.
Tickets are available online at cirquedusoleil.com/kooza.
About KOOZA
Written and directed by David Shiner, KOOZA is a return to the origins of Cirque du Soleil that combines two circus traditions – acrobatic performance and the art of clowning. The show highlights the physical demands of human performance in all its splendor and fragility, presented in a colorful mélange that emphasizes bold slapstick humor.
The name KOOZA is inspired by the Sanskrit word “koza,” which means“box,” “chest” or “treasure,” and was chosen because one of the underlying concepts of the production is the idea of a “circus in a box.”
“KOOZA is about human connection and the world of duality, good and bad,”Shiner said. “The tone is fun and funny, light and open. The show doesn’t take itself too seriously, but it’s very much about ideas, too. As it evolves we are exploring concepts such as fear, identity, recognition and power.”
The show starts with The Trickster bursting onto the scene like a jack-in-a-box right in front of The Innocent, and that is just the first of many surprises to follow. The Innocent’s journey brings him into contact with a panoply of comic characters such as the King, the Trickster, the Heimloss, the Pickpocket, the Obnoxious Tourist and his Bad Dog.
Between strength and fragility, laughter and smiles, turmoil and harmony, KOOZA is set in an electrifying and exotic visual world.
