  • Dear Dorothy
    NEW ORLEANS NOSTALGIA Remembering New Orleans History, Culture and Traditions By Ned Hémard Dear Dorothy Before there was a “Dear Abby” or “Ask Ann Landers”, there was a “Dorothy Dix” and her career flourished in New Orleans during the first half of the Twentieth Century. Among other things, she wrote about happiness: “Happiness is largely a matter of self-hypnotism. You can think yourself happy or you can think yourself miserable.” “You never saw a very busy person who was unhappy.” “We are never happy until we learn to laugh at ourselves.” Dix’s most popular single article was a ten-point plan for happiness entitled “Dictates for a Happy Life”, which included the suggestion: “Make up your mind to be happy. If you are ever to be happy, it must start now, today.” And, of course, she wrote on dating and marriage: A few words of love, she observed, were more important to a woman than having a man work himself to death for her. To men, speaking words of love was an embarrassment they had do endeavor so that they could find wives and never have to resort to it again. “Nobody wants to kiss when they are hungry,” she wrote. Thank goodness, in New Orleans good food is in abundance — and ergo osculation, as well. Her realistic advice was humorous and concise, but also sound and sympathetic. Was it better to marry someone who adored you, a writer inquired, though you felt only affection for him, or to marry someone whom you adored, though his feelings were not intense? “Marry the one you love,” answered Dorothy Dix.

Our building was formerly the home of the Electric ALL THE ANSWERS Railway and Light Company. This name is still carved on the wall outside. You’ll enter on the Wells Street side into a large, open space. Our box office will be visible November 24 - December 20, 2009 Quadracci Powerhouse Theater on your left as you come through the front doors. The large space is the main hub for the businesses that share this building: a bank, an office tower, the Pabst Theater, and the Inter- continental Hotel. If you walk into the center of this area, you’ll see a staircase on your left. You will take this staircase to the Powerhouse Theater lobby. Inside the lobby are restrooms, water fountains, and a coat check. If you decide to bring a snack, please know that food and drink are NOT permitted in the theater. However, you can leave things (at your own risk) in the coat check room, and enjoy them outside the thea- ter during intermission. Most plays have one intermission that is about 20 minutes long.

  • Vayechi 5781 Parshat Vayechi a Lesson from Biblical Times on How to Overcome Family Discord and Conflict
    Vayechi 5781 Parshat Vayechi A lesson from Biblical times on how to overcome family discord and conflict. Chances are pretty good that everyone has some situation in their family Every family has examples of family feuds and sibling rivalry. Chances are pretty good that everyone has some situation in their family where this one won’t talk to that one, sometimes for reasons that have been lost in the mists of time. Sometimes the reason for the start of a feud is a misunderstanding – those can be tragic stories. German shoemaker brothers “Adi” and “Rudi” Dassler started the Dassler Brothers Shoe Factory in Herzogenaurach, Germany in the 1920s. The feud between the brothers started in WWII. The two had very different politics during the war; Rudi joined the Gestapo, but Adi sheltered Jews. According to legend, the final straw came during an air raid, when Adi and his family went into a bomb shelter where Rudi and his family were hiding. Adi said, “The dirty bastards are back again,” meaning the Allied forces. Rudi though Adi meant him and his family, and a few years later they split the company into two: Adi’s company, Adidas, and Rudi’s company, Puma. The two vowed to never speak again. The feud lasted for 60 years with both townspeople and sports figures choosing sides: David Beckham, Muhammad Ali and Madonna all wore Adidas while Pele, Boris Becker and Usain Bolt were signed by Puma. It wasn’t until 2009, long after both brothers had died, that Puma and Adidas, still headquartered in the same Bavarian town, agreed to a soccer match for charity to support a non-profit organization.
