holidays themselves
and fantasy, the Atlanta Ballet again augments the wonder of the spectacle
with awe-inspiring sets, costumes and, of course, dancing at the always fabulous Fox Theater. The spectacle is
a holiday tradition (with good reasons), and the Atlanta
Ballet’s own version dazzles the senses.
The Atlanta Ballet actually dances their very own version of the show. This version is set in St. Petersburg,
Russia. Choreographed by John McFall, the artistic director, this version premiered in 1996. Before this, the
company performed the famous Balanchine version,
which was performed for the first time outside of the New
York City Ballet by the Atlanta Ballet. Trying to remember the story of The Nutcracker proves difficult mainly
because there is surprisingly little story. Compared to
opera, ballet generally has much simpler stories, and The
Nutcracker is no exception. There is not a plot or story
and really, no resolution at the end. The classic moment
when the Rat King is taken down by a shoe is not here.
The story can be summed up as follows: At a party, a
brother and sister receive gifts which, along with a little
imagination, entertain the children. It is very simple, and
there is nothing to follow.
While the story is not that interesting, the costumes
and sets are very attention-worthy. Both are lavish and
very detailed. It was a pleasure to look at the decoration
on the stage and the large crowds of people are almost
entertainment in itself. This makes this production of
The Nutcracker really a spectacle and not a story-based
show. It is about the feast for the eyes and enjoying just
watching the stage without having to think too much.
The combination of live music, scenic eye candy and feats
of dancing make an easily-enjoyed show, especially for
PERFORMER: Atlanta Ballet
On Friday, Nov. 26, Disney in Concert: Magical Music from the Movies was performed at the
Woodruff Arts Center. The concert consisted
of the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra joined by
a quartet of singers and the Atlanta Symphony
Gospel Choir. The show used images and music
from the famed studio’s film releases and cartoons to salute the accomplishments of Walt
Disney.
The night of the performance, the audience
sat with anticipation as the first violinist and
Concertmaster, David Coucheron, tuned and
prepared the orchestra for the conductor. Guest
Conductor and Principal Pops Conductor to
the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra Micheal Krajewski was greeted with an excited applause as
he bowed and raised his baton, ready to begin
the show.
The Disney Classics Overture began the
show with a bang and excited the audience.
Next, vocalist Candice Nicole sang songs from
The Little Mermaid such as “Under the Sea.”
The orchestra went on to play “Colors of the
Wind” from Pocahontas and an Orchestral Suite
from Beauty and the Beast. Singer Aaron Phillips entertained the audience with a song from
The Jungle Book, “I Wanna Be Like You.” Before
the piece began, conductor Micheal Krajewski
revealed a fun fact about it: The Jungle Book was
the last movie that Walt Disney himself actually
supervised.
Before the ntermission, the last pieces from
Mary Poppins were played and they happened
to be my favorite. The orchestra played “Chim
Chim Cher-ee” and asked the audience to sing
along with projections of the lyrics as an aid.
This was one of the highlights of the show as the
audience was more than happy to be engaged.
Before beginning the next two selections,
conductor Micheal Krajewski admitted that he
thought they were the best pieces from Disney
movies. The orchestra stunned the crowd with a
beautifully played piece from Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl.
Still, what was to come was better. The next
selection was by far the best of the whole concert; the orchestra was joined not only by the
quartet of singers but also the Atlanta Symphony Gospel Choir for a Lion King song suite.
The audience was mesmerized. “The Circle of
Life”, especially, was executed perfectly by all
three contributing parties. This part of the perSee Disney, page 14

those without much of an attention span.
The Atlanta Ballet performs The Nutcracker at the fabulous Fox Theater in Midtown, just a stone’s throw from
The Varsity. The theater is almost as interesting as any
show that passes through. Originally opened in 1929, the
Islamic/Egyptian-styled edifice is unique. Even from the
street, it screams lavish luxury from yesteryear. During
intermission, it is easy to miss the beginning of the second
act while exploring the many nooks, crannies (and bathrooms) and details of the historical landmark.
For the past two years, the Atlanta ballet used live music only on the show’s opening weekend. However this
year will feature live music at all 23 performances for the
first time since 2006. There is an indescribable something
that live music brings to a multifaceted production like
The Nutcracker. Tchaikovsky’s romantic (and then quite
experimental) score sounds much more nuanced and engrossing live than any recording can produce. The Atlanta
Ballet Orchestra is one of the highlights of the show.
The only aspect of the show that seemed lacking was,
ironically, the dancing. While at times virtuosic, there
were at least commensurate occasions of strikingly bad
footwork or timing. The arms and upper half of the dancers was almost always approaching perfection. Arms and
their positioning definitely got much more attention than
footwork or synchronization. However, with a show that
has as many children it is much harder to maintain a high
level of execution.
The Nutcracker is a tradition, especially with parents
and children, and it is very easy to see why. The show is a
spectacle with scant story which is easily digested by anyone of any age. The live music, costumes, scenery and feats
of dancing make a visual and auditory feast. The Fox is a
fantastic venue that only adds to the wonder and uniqueness of the experience. While the dancing is at times
shaky, the show is a solid success. The show’s sparkle is
hard to resist and gets anyone in the holiday spirit.
The Atlanta Ballet will host The Nutty Nutcracker, which
will be “unchoreographed by the Atlanta Ballet Dancers.”
It is rated PG-13 and is one night only, Dec. 16 at 7:30

Turismo 5 offers realistic driving experience
GAMES
Gran Turismo 5
CONSOLE: PlayStation 3
GENRE: Racing
DEVELOPER: Polyphony
Digital
RATING: E
RELEASED: Nov. 24
OUR TAKE: «««««
By Andrew Akker
Contributing Writer
The driving simulator genre of
video games has seen no better series than Gran Turismo since the
first one landed on shelves in 1997
on the first PlayStation console.
Since then, numerous sequels and
spin-offs have continued its great
name and gameplay that we’ve all
come to know and love. Gran Turismo 5 (GT5) is no different.
GT5 builds upon what developers Polyphony Digital have
been creating and improving on
for the past 13 years, which is to
be a great driving simulator.
The handling with the cars is
just as you would expect from real-life physics. The elements, such
as rain, will have an effect on your
driving. All the factors added into
to how the gameplay works with
the driving really do make this a
great driving simulator.
The graphics really do look as
good as the developers claimed
they did in demonstrations of the
game. However, the best looking
cars are labeled “premium” cars,
and you have to purchase these
with in-game money.
The cars you win from races
and such are non-premium and do
not look quite as good as premium
ones. However, once you take a
spin in one of the premium cars,
Image courtesy of Polyphony Digital
you will be blown away.
The menu layout has changed
since Gran Turismo 5: Prologue a
smaller game released earlier that
was supposed to be an introduction to what GT5 was to be when
finished. In the main menu, you
have Arcade Mode, which is for
playing a normal single-player
race, Two-Player Mode, Drifting
Challenges or Time Trial Challenges. There is also access to a
course creator where users can
create their own custom courses
with the tools available. There is
also access to the GT News and
“My Home.”
“My Home” mode is what has
most of the gameplay modes such
as A-Spec (racing), dealerships to
purchase cars or license tests to
learn the basics of the Gran Turismo world. Also accessible from
this menu is information about
your community image.
You can set a personal avatar,
information about yourself and
with what kind of people you
would like to play online with.
The game does a very good job
of setting all of this up for you
the first time you access the My
Home menu.
There is tons of stuff to do in
this game. You can do straight
racing in the A-Spec mode or
you can also do a manager mode
called B-Spec in which you create
a player and act as their crew chief
to direct them on what kind of
racing style they should use during the race. Completing sets of
races in these modes will win you
cars, credits for purchase and experience to level up.
License tests are a good way to
train for the big races if you are
not very familiar with the world
of Gran Turismo. They will teach
you how to take turns like a pro
and how to drive to win. It is an
easy way to get started with credits and experience.
Probably the most intricate
mode of the game is the photo
mode. The player can take his
or her car to anyone of the four
designated cities. Anything from
shutter speed to exposure to filters
can be changed to fit the exact
kind of picture you want.
There’s a “special challenge”
mode where you can take on challenges from popular icons in the
racing field such as doing a NASCAR challenge with Jeff Gordon,
or racing around in the Top Gear
track. Each one requires you to
reach a certain level to take part
in the challenge.
The online community is very
prevalent in this game as well.
Players are allowed to create their
own rooms with their own customizations in types of race cars
allowed or even to use their own
custom tracks.
It is a good idea not to go online until you’ve gotten yourself
a decent car. Most of the online
races deal with high-level cars.
Polyphony Digital has done a
fantastic job with the newest installment of the Gran Turismo
franchise. The gameplay is realistic and the graphics are crisp. The
amount of cars to choose from is
very vast, and the brands are extremely varied.
But above all else, the game is
very fun and there is a lot to do.
I’d recommend this game to anyone who enjoys realistic driving
simulators and to everyone who
was ever a fan of the Gran Turismo
franchise.
Disney
formance was by far the most impressive and elaborate.
Finally, the last piece and finale
from the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra was a small selection from
Hercules. It ended the show with
a perfect blend of excitement and
satisfaction.
Before attending the show,
however, I talked to one of the
performing singers, Whitney
Kaufman. Kaufman, a native
from Los Angeles and a natural on
stage, has been performing since
the age of eight. She was most recently on tour with the Broadway
hit, Mamma Mia!.
“The show is not very challenging because it is so fun but we are
performing with visuals on the
screen and we have had to work
hard with the conductor to listen
for musical cues and visual cues,”
Kaufman said about the challenges of the show.
Kaufman did not have to do
any special preparations to take
part in the show.
“No, we didn’t do anything
like that but everyone was very
familiar with the Disney music.
We did several rehearsals to stay
true to the original music. That
was very important to everyone—
staying true to the original pieces
and performing them exactly as
they originally were,” Kaufman
said.
Along with Kaufman were
three other vocalists, Candice Nicole, Aaron Phillips, and Terron
Brooks.
Since Kaufman worked with
several famous conductors, she
talked about how she had actually
worked with Micheal Krajewski
before. She had nothing but good
things to say.
“I worked with him last time
we performed in Atlanta. He is
fantastic: nice to singers and always listening. He is always on
his toes and a great conductor,”
Kaufman said.

This week we visited one of
three Pure Taqueria locations in
Inman Park—one of Atlanta’s
most fiercely dedicated communities and home to a myriad of small
shops, restaurants and, of course,
the glorious hipsters.
The first note we made as we
walked up to Pure Taqueria in
the cold, drizzly rain was that this
place was made for warm summer
evenings.
Walking in, it was apparent
that the building may have been
a converted auto shop. All the tables were packed with boisterous
guests, and the bar was stocked

with warmer-still patrons.
After a thirty-minute wait
(even on a weekday night, reservations are recommended) we were
led through the throng and past a
brilliantly tiled food service counter that shone even in the low light
of the dining room. Chips, salsa
and water were all almost instantaneously delivered to our table
while it took our actual server a
little bit to introduce herself and
ask if we needed anything else.
Michael went for the corn masa
stuffed with pulled pork, Andrew
ordered a traditional dish, chicken
mole enchiladas and our companion and photographer Cassie opted for the chicken taquitos.
The two large stuffed masa
cakes laid imposingly over a majority of the plate and were piled
high with toppings. The cakes
were at first a bit hard to cut into,
but the pork’s moisture and saltiness offset the dryness and touch
of sweetness, respectively, from
the corn.
Mole is a Mexican sauce that
varies enough to be the signature
of a particular cook, and at Pure
it was particularly chocolatey and
nutty. In fact, if Nutella were to

OUR TAKE: «««««
By Daniel Fuller
Contributing Writer
Tangled takes long hair to the
extreme, transforming the tale
of Rapunzel into an exciting adventure. The original Rapunzel
story is evident, but Tangled adds
its own flair. The presentation of
script, scenery and sound creates a
compelling film out of something
as simple as a girl with long hair
trapped in a tower. Even though
Tangled is Disney’s first 3D departure from their roots in classic
2D animation, it stands strong as
proof that that Disney still knows
how to make good animations.
The combination of talent involved in Tangled comes together
nicely. The voice acting is excellent, especially by leads Mandy
Moore as princess Rapunzel and
Zachary Levi as the handsome
thief Flynn Rider. Donna Murphy and Ron Perlman provide
a striking villainous presence,
voicing the manipulative Mother
Gothel and the rogue Stabbington brothers, respectively. Most
impressively, all of the voice actors
perform their own singing roles.
The soundtrack is well-done
thanks to Alan Menken, a longtime Disney movie composer
responsible for classics such as
Beauty and the Beast and Aladdin.

Following the tradition of Disney
animated features, characters in
Tangled will spontaneously burst
into song. The number and pacing of these songs feels just right,
delivering emotion and character
development through smooth
transitions into music. Rather
than being overwhelming and distracting, all of the music contributes to the narrative. Rapunzel’s
first song is especially charming,
describing the daily rituals she
employs to counteract the boredom of being trapped in a tower
for her entire life.
The animators involved in
Tangled also deserve special
praise. The animation is flowing,
the visuals are beautiful, and the
character design is unique and interesting. The resulting art style is
vibrant, colorful and scenic. Not
surprisingly considering the subject matter, the hair is especially
well-rendered.
With the great vocal talent,
music and visuals, the story of
Tangled is the final component
that brings everything together.

It is full of action, comedy, romance, and villainy. Extreme liberties are taken with the source
material, but such has always
been the case with Disney’s fairy
tale adaptations. In this case, the
replacement of the classic-yetboring “prince charming” with a
witty rogue opens up interesting
narrative possibilities and creates
a more complex relationship dynamic between his character and
the princess. The Disney formula
is clearly evident throughout the
film, even down to the quirky
animal companions (in this case,
a horse and a chameleon). However, while the formula is old and
predictable, it is unashamedly so,
delivering a happy, fun adventure
for audiences to enjoy.
Tangled is delightful in its
light-hearted charm. It is not particularly deep, yet it is not shallow
either. The characters and story
are interesting, and the execution
is superb from music to art style.
More than most, Tangled is simply a fun movie, and that makes it
worthwhile.

Weepies returns strong, wows Variety
CONCERT
The Weepies
PERFORMER: The Weepies
LOCATION: Variety
Playhouse
DATE: Nov. 17
OUR TAKE: ««««
«
By Jessica Swafford
Contributing Writer
Two weeks ago on Wednesday,
Nov. 17, Variety Playhouse hosted
The Weepies, an indie pop-folk
group of six based out of Los Angeles. Led by husband and wife
musicians Steve Tannen and Deb
Talan, The Weepies, while still being lesser known by the masses,
has steadily gained notoriety in
the last few years. This can be attributed to several songs that have
been featured on shows such as
Grey’s Anatomy, Scrubs and How I
Met Your Mother.
The duo, who had solo projects before joining together, write
their own lyrics and until the past
few years, toured the country in a
compact Toyota. Their first album
was released in 2003, and they
now have a total of four (Happiness, Say I Am You, Hideaway, Be
My Thrill) with the most current
being released earlier this year.
The crowd on Wednesday,
unexpectedly ranging from high
school students to middle aged
adults, made small talk amongst
strangers like old friends while
waiting on the show to start.
Small bright stage lights, fitting to
the band’s persona, were turned
on around nine, and were immediately followed by fan excitement. Soon after, The Weepies
took the stage.
During the concert it was common for a single fan to yell a one-
Photos by Austin Foote / Student Publications
liner to the band, but between
songs everyone was unusually
quiet. This was noted by trendy
dressing lead singer Deb Talan
who commented that down time
was so quiet she could almost hear
a pin drop.
It can’t be for sure, but perhaps
this silence was due to the fact
that no one had heard The Weepies live in so long. They haven’t
had a show, much less a tour, in
four years. In this time Talan and
Tannen wrote their album Be My
Thrill, expanded their family and
switched from a compact to a tour
bus.
In the quaint setting of Variety
Playhouse, fans were told stories
about the inspiration for many
songs which range from drinks
to arguments to children’s sayings. The tour bus inspired a song
called “Antarctica” which is what
the duo’s oldest child calls it.
As a matter of fact, fans ate
up all stories told between songs.
Most popular was the story of how
Talan and Tannen met while both
on separate tours. “Riga Girls”
was inspired by it, but those interested will have to look the song’s
colorful background themselves.
“Please Speak Well of Me,”
a slower song about an ex, enhanced the folky aspect of the
band by including several band
members clapping and snapping
in rhythmic sync to make much of
the music for the song. Fans soon
joined in to make things louder
thus adding quality to the song.
In order to speed things up and
keep excitement The Weepies followed with “Can’t Go Back Now”
which was well received proving
that fans appreciate different song
styles made by the band.
Throughout the night The
Weepies kept true to their untraditional genre and used not only
typical drums and guitars but also
incorporated the afore mentioned
clapping as well as a ukulele, cello and tambourine. Solidifying
themselves as musicians, almost
every member played at least two
instruments before the night came
to a close. Other crowd pleasing
songs were “Gotta Have You,”
“Nobody Knows Me At All” and
two singles that seemed to be
known by everyone in the crowd,
“Be My Thrill” and “World Spins
Madly On.”
Variety Playhouse turned out
to be the perfect venue for the
concert. Fans missed The Weepies
and surely appreciated the small,
personal setting of the venue where
they could make new friends and
seemingly “catch up” with the
band who themselves treated the
audience like old friends. With
any luck, they’ll come back soon
for those who missed out. If not, it
can only be hoped it won’t be four
years until the next time.
Food
from page 15
find its way to a sauce pan with
an entourage of chilies, you would
have this mole. Toss in some
softened peppers and onions and
spread over three stuffed enchiladas, and it makes a hearty, earthy
dish.
All dishes were accompanied
by sides of rice and a choice of
black, refried or charro beans. The
rice was a strange side dish: while
the taste was done well, the texture seemed almost waxy but curiously we ate every last grain.
Pure’s version of charro beans
tasted excellent and came in a
small side cup, much preferred
over the usual splatter on the side
of your plate as in many other
restaurants. It also pays tribute
to the original, using an unmistakable presence of pork among
other spices and chilies commonly
found in traditional charro bean
recipes.
Other food options are the
usual suspects for Mexican cuisine, although it certainly surpasses the typical Mexican dive in
both atmosphere and style. Pure’s
founders based their recipes on
family recipes from the southern
Mexican state of Oaxaca, and the
feature cheese here is, surprise,
Oaxaca cheese. They also offer a
gluten-free menu that isn’t too
bad.
Perhaps the highlight of the
restaurant was the shiny ethanol
centerpiece. Stacked on all sides
by liquor, especially their proud
tequila selection, the bar seemed
almost too retro despite the rest of
the modern-retro mix of interior
decoration. On the wall opposite
the windows was a large tv projection screen showing a football
game at the time.
Overall the experience of Pure
was nice. Perhaps a little dimmer
than necessary, but loud and fun.
The food was good and plentiful
and the price more than reasonable.
