Cirque du Soleil music director puts down roots in Ashland There’s a new artist in town, and he’s opening a new musical theater for youth. John Taylor is a former musical director, conductor and keyboardist for Cirque du Soleil “O” at the Bellagio in Las Vegas, and as a professional pianist, keyboardist and composer for over 25 years has worked with artists such as Jennifer Lopez, DeBarge, Rick Astley, and Expose. He and his family moved to Ashland about three weeks ago. Painting the dancers As a young child, spontaneously, like many young children, Shoshanah Dubiner danced and painted pictures. By 1966, Shoshanah was a stressed out and out-of-place grad student in comparative literature at Harvard. She longed to be a visual artist, but had accepted a scholarship to Harvard in part because it was too prestigious for the daughter of Jewish immigrants to decline. That year her eyes began to act strange: They would not focus on the printed page. They simply “swam” over the words. Movie Reviews The Age of Embellishment It was the fifteenth century. The world had never seen such a fashion for headdresses. Hats were huge, heavy, and reached such a height that doorways needed to be enlarged in order to accommodate them. But it was the fashion for shoes that the age was most noted for. Called poulaines, the points on them were so long and narrow, stuffed as they were with moss (no extra charge) that people commonly tripped over them. A quick tour of Ashland’s downtown shows that our age isn’t all that much different. Long and pointy seems to be in. Church Listings --> Copyright © 2006 Ashland Daily Tidings and Ottaway Newspapers.
