Back to the Future: The Outdoor Recreation Archive and Fish-Ski Designs
If you can’t remember the past, you are doomed to repeat the same mistakes. In the early days of the outdoor industry, companies had distinct personalities. Nowadays, if you removed all jacket logos, would you be able to tell the difference in brand? The Outdoor Recreation Archive’s utilization of historical records is fostering a new wave of inspiration, innovation and ingenuity to develop better, more sustainable products.
DRIVING MISS DAISY at Lyric Rep is worth the drive
LOGAN — The Black Box Theater on the Utah State University campus is an intimate space with room for a few dozen audience members lucky enough to squeeze in alongside the actors viewing Driving Miss Daisy, a gem of a production. Playwright Alfred Urhy sets the play in Atlanta from the late 1940s to the early 1970s. Miss Daisy Werthen (Leslie Brott) is an elderly Jewish Southern woman requiring a chauffeur. Hoke Coleburn (Herb Newsome), an older African American man, is hired and a personal friendship grows even as society deals with prejudice. Driving Miss Daisy won the 1988 Pulitzer Prize and the Outer Critics Circle Award for Best Off-Broadway play. Some patrons will recognize the title from the 1989 film adaptation starring Jessica Tandy and Morgan Freeman, and winner of several Academy Awards- Best Picture, Best Actress (Tandy), Best Makeup, and Best Adapted Screenplay. With such a brilliant pedigree, it might be understandably daunting to produce, but the cast and production team at the Lyric Rep have risen to the occasion and more.
