Entertainment in Manchester

Posted by admin on January 15th, 2010 and filed under Jewish Entertainment | 24 Comments »

They say that a city’s entertainment and recreational options speak volumes about that city’s prospects as a desirable and rewarding place to live. If such were the case, then Manchester’s vibrant entertainment options certainly speak volumes about the joy of living in this fine, fun-filled city. Manchester is an absolute standout when one considers the depth and breadth of its entertainment options in the field of art, cinema, dance, music, theatre, museums, sports / recreation (including some of the best saltwater fishing around) and the performing arts.

Take for example the Lowry at Salford Quays, inaugurated in 2000 at a cost of £21m, courtesy of the National Lottery fund. Located near the Imperial War Museum North and the Old Trafford football stadium, The Lowry is best known for keeping the biggest collection of L.S. Lowry’s original paintings. Art is its soul, they say, but the Lowry has more to offer than just art. It also houses two theatres that regularly feature touring plays as well as musicians and comedians. These are the Lyric, believed to have the largest stage in the United Kingdom, outside of London’s West End, and the Quays.

Located at the city centre, the Whitworth Art Gallery regularly stages eye-opening, innovative exhibitions and houses over 31,000 great modern pieces, including paintings by Constable, Turner and other masters. The gallery has an impressive collection of watercolours, wallpapers and textiles. Among its most famous pieces is the marble sculpture Genesis by Sir Jacob Epstein.

Cornerhouse on Oxford Road is renowned for its contemporary and cutting-edge multi-media visual art displays. Since it opened in October 1985, the centre has established itself as a venue for artistic experimentation and innovation.

When it comes to contemporary dance performances, Dancehouse Theatre, home of the Northern Ballet School, stages regular performances all year round. The Lowry and the Green Room also stage dance performances throughout the year.

Manchester has a diverse array of musical offerings as well, ranging from classical and opera to pop, rock and jazz.

Bridgewater Hall is the seat of classical music in Manchester and home to the Halle Orchestra and the Manchester Camerata as well as a regular venue of the BBC Philharmonic. The city’s best professional musicians are usually products of the Royal Northern College of Music where they were trained to compose and perform musical scores, jazz concerts and opera arias, among others. Musically gifted children are taught the finer points of their craft at Chetham’s School of Music and these prodigies perform free lunchtime concerts for the public.

On the other hand, the city’s leading proponents of pop, rock and jazz converge at Manchester Academy, Labatt’s Apollo, Band on the Wall and Roadhouse. You will find well-known indie and dance bands at Manchester Academy while Labatt’s Apollo regularly hosts a diverse array of famous British and American singers as well as Asian superstars. Band on the Wall has nightly blues and jazz jam sessions while the musical stars of tomorrow hone their skills at the Roadhouse, a dark and sweaty basement venue. Numerous bars, pubs and nightclubs throughout the city host their own in-house live bands.

In addition, Manchester has many museums that chronicle not only the city’s rich history but also important milestones and landmarks of the United Kingdom and the world. For example, the Manchester Museum, which is owned by the University of Manchester, features over six million items from seven continents, including carvings from India, ancient Egyptian crafts from Africa, age-old art from the Mediterranean, fossils from Australia, pottery from the Americas and much more, including a fossilized Tyrannosaurus Rex from South Dakota.

Meanwhile, the Museum of Science and Industry is concerned with science, technology and industry, especially Manchester’s significant contributions in these areas, particularly in textiles, computing, communications, sewerage and sanitation. The People’s History Museum, located on The Pump House on Bridge Street, traces Manchester’s social culture, particularly with regard to the history of working people in the United Kingdom over the past 200 years. Manchester’s other notable museums include the Greater Manchester Police Museum, Imperial War Museum North, Manchester Jewish Museum, Pankhurst Centre, Urbis and The Gallery of Costume.

Manchester also has great fishing opportunities.  Many of the local shops carry all the top brands of fishing equipment like Shimano Reels, Daiwa Reels, and Penn Reels.  Manchester also has a dazzling array of clubs and nightspots for the local party people (check out the separate article on this website). Among the most popular venues are Rock World (rock ‘n roll and heavy metal), South, Phoenix and Paradise Factory (techno, trance and funky house); Prague V (gay friendly) and student-oriented venues such as Club Underground, The Ritz, The Brickhouse and 5th Avenue.

The theatre scene in Manchester is alive and well. The larger venues include the Palace Theatre, the Royal Exchange Theatre and the Manchester Opera House, which regularly hosts West End touring shows. Although relatively small and located at the basement of the Central Library, the Library Theatre has received glowing critical reviews for staging the works of modern playwrights. Other notable smaller theatres include the Green Room, Contact Theatre and Dancehouse. The Royal Northern College of Music has four theatre spaces for opera and classical music. In addition, Manchester has two widely-respected drama schools: the Manchester Metropolitan University School of Theatre and the Arden School of Theatre.

InOverOurHeads – Rough Expectations (reloaded) – Episode 2 Part 1 – Mind-Bending Jewish Reality TV

Posted by admin on March 16th, 2010 and filed under Jewish TV | No Comments »

InOverOurHeads is a mind-bending reality series that sneaks a peek at the crazy lives of a few close friends.

Episode 2 deals with meeting expectations (community, parents, spouse, G-d, and self). In Jewish culture, these expectations can be so strong that they interfere with people’s ability to approach life in a sincere way.

Coping with the realities of their restless existence as young, Jewish parents, the cast debates the absurd, laughs at convention, and reevaluates their ideals in a humorous, yet introspective way. Maintaining a decorum not quite fitting for shul [synagogue], the topics wander into sensitive areas such as marriage, gender issues, and education. The discussions are honest and irreverent, often with a deep spiritual undertone. They rip apart stereotypes of observant Jews – although like most Jews, they hardly ever agree.

Meet the cast and talk about the show at www.inoverourheads.com. Let your friends know and fan us on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/pages/In-Over-Our-Heads/175088849228

Tu B’Shevat, the 15th day of the Jewish month of Shevat, is a holiday also known as the New Year for Trees. The word “Tu” is not really a word; it is the number 15 in Hebrew, as if you were to call the Fourth of July “Iv July” (IV being 4 in Roman numerals). See Hebrew Alphabet for more information about using letters as numbers and why the number 15 is written this way.

Traditional Jewish music

Posted by admin on March 16th, 2010 and filed under Jewish Music | 25 Comments »

Traditional Jewish Yemenite music comprised of prayers, stories and chants sung together with drums or clapping.
It is sung before the ceremony of havdalah, religious ceremony that marks the symbolic end of Shabbat or holidays, and ushers in the new week.

Translation from hebrew: : My soul longs for the candle and the spices. If only you would pour me a cup of wine for Havdalah. O angels high, pave a way for me, clear the path for the bewildered and open the gates that I may enter, My heart yearning, I shall lift up my eyes to g-d, who provides for my needs day and night.

Requiem For A Dream – A Brilliant Movie

Posted by admin on March 16th, 2010 and filed under Jewish Art | 8 Comments »

It is one of those brilliant movies, which haunts one long after one has seen it, and is therefore a timeless and unforgettable piece of art.

What with its violence, graphic and sometimes explicit scenes, and a very honest and thus dismal view of what drug addiction and loneliness can do to life, it is not a film for everyone. Divided into three vivid parts, its symbolic significance cannot be ignored.

Aptly titled “requiem for a dream” it portrays the life of four ambitious and innately good people whose life is destroyed as their drug addictions spiral out of control. Thus, in the face of the fact that all their ambitions are shattered, a requiem for them is necessary as a tribute, and comes in the form of this technically clean cut and amazing film.

The three parts are “summer”, “winter” and “fall”, showing the gradual deterioration of their mental and physical states, until things hit rock bottom, and how.

A ruthless film in that sense, as it does not gloss over anything with the help of rosy depictions of rehabilitated and penitent reformed former addicts, its vivid portrayal of each individual downfall and its beautiful soundtrack make it extremely memorable, although some scenes are so graphic that you might want to shield your eyes for a bit if you aren’t too daring.

The veteran actress Ellen Burstyn plays Sarah Goldfarb, a Jewish widow who lives alone and is extremely lonely. Her ambition is to get on her favourite television game show wearing a particular red dress which is a relic of her glorious yesteryears. In her desperation to lose weight, she goes to a doctor’s clinic where she is manipulated into the habit of taking diet pills, which make her restless and hyperactive and also cause her to lose weight.

However, as her addiction accelerates out of her
control, her descent into insanity is precipitated. Though she manages to fit into her dress and continually hallucinates about herself being on the imagined show, her hyperactivity and the loneliness, which eats her up from the inside, cause her eventual downfall.

Her son, Harry Goldfarb (Jared Leto) and his best friend Tyrone Love (Marlon Wayans) are addicted to a high flying lifestyle laced with drugs and fun and they taste this so called success in the first part of the film. Later, however, a lot of violence and unpleasantness mar their lives even as they struggle to acquire the once easily available drugs.

Harry’s girlfriend, Marion, played by Jennifer Connelly, is also a young woman who is deeply into drug addiction. The dynamic of the relationship shared by Harry and Marion changes with the various stages in the film, from a happy one to a querulous and sad one, as money for their indispensable drugs runs out.

In telling this story, Aronofsky pulls out all the stops and hurls all the technical aspects of cinema at the viewers in the form of slow motions, fast forwards, fantasy sequences and close ups of the drug taking characters’ pupils dilating.

In recognition of the brilliance of the film, it was nominated for an Oscar and won 19 awards and 30 other nominations. In a riveting depiction of how Sarah becomes insane, Harry loses his arm, Tyrone ends up in prison and Marion gets into prostitution, “Winter” ends up giving you the chills.

However, as mentioned before, there is no glossing over facts and no rosy descriptions in such an austere film as this, but there is always a relatable human touch within the characterization and the telling of the story. Watching “Requiem For A Dream” has been a deeply rewarding and hard-hitting experience for most of the people who have and this speaks well of the film. The delusions that addiction brings with itself are difficult to shake off and this fact is exploited to the fullest in a remarkably efficient way in this supreme specimen of good cinema.
