Ruminations On yet another birthday season by Elizabeth Trail We’re just finishing the birthday season in our family. This year was pretty special in that department. My mother turned 80, my sister turned 60, and my oldest son Winfield turned 30 —all formidable landmarks. And my daughter Claire turned 25, an interesting number in and of itself. This juxtaposition must have been going on for a while. I just never noticed. Maybe because the last time my mother and sister turned over their big decade markers, Winfield and Claire were turning 20 and 15 — odd birthdays because both numbers are overshadowed by 21 and 16 in the popular reckoning. Our birthday season actually starts with my youngest son Sterling’s birthday in mid-August. The other three now grown children have birthdays within a three-week span in September and early October. Which had to do with holiday trips to California, where our family home had a romantic little guest house, and that’s all I’m saying about that. But there’s no explaining how it happened that my brother and sister and I, all four grandparents, my mother, and her sister Kate This year we celebrated big birthdays — my mother’s eightieth and my sister’s sixtieth — with chocolate mousse were all born in that quarter of the year. in a friend’s tiny house.

Recently a theater intensive Act I Workshop for young people was showcased highlighting 17 young thespians. Conceptualized and created by Lynn Leimer and Sunny Naughton, the pair began working together over 20 years ago. Ms. Leimer noticed a star quality and passion in Naughton, and a relationship of mentor and protégé began. Now the duo has come together again, in the second act of their work, to bring their knowledge to area theater lovers, both young and old alike. The workshop was assisted by four theatre interns: Ron St. John III, Grace Castle, and Marianna Barrett from the Northeast Kingdom, and Brandon Alexandre from Georgeville, Quebec. Fifteen youths, ages eight to 13, hailed from Derby, Newport, Barton, Westmore, and downtown Manhattan, New York City. The ensemble spent eight hours learning the business of Broadway — choreography, staging, vocalization, and high-speed musical training. The culmination of these intense hours of training, called “Broadway in 15 Minutes,” was presented to their family and friends. “Knowledge is power and we intend to fill each student with an arsenal of theatrical savvy — on stage and behind the scenes,” said Ms. Leimer. The workshop was open to all ages and abilities, and helped to sustain the mission of the Memphremagog Arts Collaborative and their The MAC Center recently hosted a theater intensive workshop for young people and plans to host a similar commitment to all facets of the arts. Ms. Leimer workshop in the coming months. Pictured here are participating young thespians. In the front row, from left to is a founding and charter member of MAC.
