VOL. 16, NO. 42 From the Beaches to the River District downtown Fort Myers OCTOBER 20, 2017 A Stunning Show At Broadway Palm Theatre by Di Saggau roadway Palm’s first full-fledged musical for its 25th season is BPippin. The show, originally direct- ed by the legendary Bob Fosse, centers on a performing troupe telling the story of Pippin (William James Callahan). He is the eldest son of Charlemagne of the Middle Ages (Brendon Schaefer), named Charles in the show. Pippin is search- ing for meaning and significance in his life. He wants a life that is extraordinary but doesn’t know where to go to find it. He explores war, the flesh and glory. Helping tell Pippin’s story is a fantastic troupe of cirque-style performers who spin hoops, juggle, dangle from the ceil- ings and perform other acrobatic feats of amazement. It seemed as if someone was always flying through the air. The troupe is led by the Leading Player (Mara Lucas), who is fantastic as the ring- The cast of Pippin photo provided leader, giving orders and shouting stage directions to her cast.

Just a few of the family names on parade? Armeda, Bass, Blount, Bylaska, Carson, English, Evans, Frierson, Gonzalez, Henderson, Hendry, Kinzie, Menge, Powell, Stewart, Summerlin, Tillis, Tooke, Towles and Washburn. Pictured here are descendants of Dr. William and Julia A. Han- son, a family that settled in what became Fort Myers in 1884. Their car is passing the VIP platform in front of City Hall on Sec- ond Street. Woody Hanson identifies some of those in the car as his father, W. Stanley Hanson Jr., himself, and his sister’s (Donna Hanson Gillespie) son, Charles Hanson Gillespie. The Pioneer Parade was just one part of a big block party on Saturday, October 5, 1985. And, the block party was but one of many events that comprised the seven- month-long Centennial Celebration. The hoopla had begun the previous August 10 and was scheduled to conclude on the following March 24. The Centennial Committee co-chairs were Charlie Stiles and writer and historian Prudy Taylor Board. Those bookend dates (with a little adjustment to schedule major events on weekends) were chosen for their historical significance. In one sense, the settlement of Fort Myers had its birth as a real town on August 12, 1885, when 45 men voted unanimously to incorporate. The State of Florida did not Fort Myers City Hall on Second Street between Hendry and Broadway make it official, however, until March 24, 1886. photo by Gerri Reaves The Centennial Celebration was chocked full of a variety of observances, events and activities, from historic river tours, parades, shuffleboard and tennis tournaments, a Pioneer Centennial Dinner, a flower show, a regatta, an antique car show, historical exhibits, a beard-growing contest and so much more. The dedication of a time vault concluded the seven-month extravaganza. Meanwhile, the October 5 parade didn’t begin until 5 p.m. on that Saturday, but the day kicked off with live music and entertainment at the Lee County Courthouse, with the music continuing into the night. Also at the courthouse were 10 food booths offering a wild variety of goodies, including swamp cabbage, apple fritters, mango chutney, ice and beer. And, there was an antique car show – no doubt the same cars the pioneer descen- dants rode in. If this wasn’t enough, the following weekend promised the Centennial Classic Tennis Tournament and, a couple of weeks later, the kick-off of the children’s poster contest. Visit City Hall and imagine the pioneers’ descendants riding by in antique cars, just to celebrate the town’s 100th birthday.
