There’s a ghost wandering through the audience at the outset of Chisa Hutchinson’s Whitelisted—not literally, of course, and not even really within the framework of the play. It’s a disturbed woman (played by Dee-Dee Darby-Duffin), pleading individually with audience members for money while suggesting that some terrible fate has befallen her daughter. Immediately, Whitelisted becomes a direct and uncomfortable challenge: Do you respond to the call for help that’s staring you in the face? Or can you behave, from a position of relative security, that it has nothing to do with you, that the potentially scary thing isn’t really there?

In Sunday’s (10/6) New York Times, Tania Ganguli and Ken Belson write, “In late April, about 60 members of the Utah Symphony were on break during a rehearsal … when the organization’s chief executive, Steve Brosvik, matter-of-factly told them that the county was considering demolishing Abravanel Hall, their world-renowned home, as part of a plan to revamp downtown Salt Lake City. The musicians were in shock…. Abravanel Hall had housed the symphony for 45 years, built with gold-leafed bridges, crystal chandeliers and some of the finest acoustics in the country…. [Principal Basson] Lori Wike … joined a small but vocal group of musicians in taking on mayors, lawmakers and the billionaire who owns the two major professional sports teams that play in downtown Salt Lake City. The musicians dug through planning codes, attended council meetings and began a media campaign to publicize their cause…. City and county leaders were pushing ahead with an ambitious plan to remake up to 100 acres of downtown, largely at the behest of Ryan Smith, the owner of the N.B.A.’s Utah Jazz and his newly acquired N.H.L. team that will soon play in downtown Salt Lake City … The plan includes moving [downtown buildings] … Smith and Mike Maughan … an executive at Smith’s umbrella group … said they wanted Abravanel Hall to remain in the district. But the possibility remained that the county, which owns the hall, could knock it down to rebuild it in a location that better suited the plaza…. During a public meeting last month, [Mayor Jenny] Wilson said that the county intended to renovate the hall rather than tear it down for a rebuild.”

Head Portals is a kaleidoscope of genres, their influences acting as their own refracting light, overlapping or melding with another. Each time you look at them, their reflection is sure to show something new, some other dimension you hadn’t heard the last time around. The band’s third album, A Lesson In Object Permanence, is no different, though it enjoys sitting back comfortably to lounge rather than getting up to rock.

“Amaro tends to be a spirit that’s celebrated within the bar industry, but is misunderstood by the average drinker,” says Jordon Strang, HSL Bar Manager and co-creator of pop-up group Bitter Lovers. “I want to enlighten the Salt Lake community that it isn’t just that nasty fernet your bartender friend made you try or that overly sweet Paper Plane you can’t get down.” Determined to set the record straight, Strang has teamed up with local culinary great Jozef Ezra to offer imbibers ephemeral evenings of Amari-focused sips and bites at bars across Salt Lake City.
