A New Play By Felix Racelis

 & Meeting Updates!

Hello and thanks for visiting! Our long time member Felix Racelis has written a new play which is having it's world premier starting August 13th at the Ruby Theater in Hollywood for four weeks. For full information and how to buy tickets please visit their website below. Ticket prices are very reasonable but they do offer group discounts for 10 or more if anyone wants to get a group together. Also below are some upcoming meeting updates so please mark your calendars! See you soon...


Taken from their website:
AS STRAW BEFORE THE WIND recounts the story of Nene Santos, a Filipina nurse and enterprising owner/operator, of a fictionalized San Gabriel Valley convalescent home. Nene has ambitious plans to expand her business, which she intends to leave to her daughter and primary assistant, Pilita, who has her own agenda. So, what will become of the elderly and fragile resident patients of the convalescent home –
Poncing Enrile, a retired Filipino American Army Captain, and Mildred Novak, a chain smoking retiree widow with Alzheimer’s Disease? Nene confronts a string of setbacks and obstacles in her quest. Flashbacks of the horrendous experience she and her family endured during WWII haunt her psyche and lead to a revelation of a long kept family secret.

“This is a very personal story for me, having grown up with survivors of World War II,” notes playwright Felix Racelis. “The majority of the women in my family, including my mother, were nurses, and one of my mother’s best friends was one of the nurses stationed on the island of Corregidor during the Battle of Corregidor in 1942. ‘Nene’ is a composite character of many of these courageous women who survived the ordeal of the war, and who lived their lives with grace and stoicism. All of them are now departed. Their memories and spirit continue to both haunt and inspire me. As a playwright it’s important for me to bring these stories to the stage and to a universal audience.”

“What you will see on stage is a series of wars: a war between a mother and a daughter, between a convalescent home owner and a patient, between a loan officer and a potential borrower, and between the past and the present,” says director 
Lesley Asistio. 

For tickets and more information please visit their web site:  http://strawbeforewind.com/

Upcoming Meetings! Mark your calendars and please note meeting changes below. We'll be posting more information and details on these meetings soon.

September Meeting:
Come and hear Kelly Comras talk about her new book about Ruth Shellhorn. Ruth who you ask? Ruth Shellhorn was a renowned landscape architect who was hired by Walt Disney to work on Disneyland--literally at the last minute to pull things together. Kelly will show a video about Ruth and talk about her work on Disneyland and other projects around Southern California you will recognize. Kelly was on the author panel at this year's convention but even if you saw that you'll get a more in depth presentation here. We hope you can join us!
When: Sunday September 18th at Noon.
Where: Ron King's home in Norwalk.

October Meeting:
UPDATE! We have had a change in plans for our October meeting. We'll be taking a field trip to see the Eyvind Earle exhibit at Forrest Lawn in Glendale. Since this will only be there a limited time and many of us want to see it we have decided to do this. We'll change the date to our regular meeting date so anyone wanting to go to the Anaheim Halloween Parade can still attend that. We'll re-schedule the Huell Howser exhibit at Chapman University for next year.
When: Sunday October 16th.

Questions? Please email us:  info@thestudiochapter.org

More Trains, Mom, Plus Plays About Moms!


First off we want to wish all the moms out there a very happy Mothers Day!

More Trains! For those of you who were able to make it to the Fullerton Railroad Days last weekend we hope you got to check out the wonderful working model of the Mine Train Through Natures Wonderland. But, for those that didn't make it here are some photos and a short video. Built by hand over a 10 year period it's truly a labor of love. Enjoy! (Note: click on the photos for a larger view. Also, apologies for the poor video quality. Will try to update with a better quality video soon!)


 





 




Plays about moms! Our chapter member Felix Racelis, who has been writing plays for a while now, has a new series of 6 short plays called 'Motherload' now playing. See the flyer below or click the link for details. To get a discount on tickets enter the code 'thecat'.

Studio Chapter Update for May

Studio Chapters members and friends enjoying lunch at Clifton's

Happy May everyone! Time for a chapter update! Hope you were able to make it to the Fullerton Railroad event. That awesome working model of the Mine Train through Natures Wonderland was worth the visit alone! If you missed it mark your calendar for next year’s event! It’s worth seeing at least once. We want to thank everyone who made it to the Union Station Tour last month. A special thank you to Dennis and Carol for guiding us through the buildings and explaining about the rich history and architecture that is Union Station. Following in this update is a brief recap of the tour with some photos and a revised schedule of some of our upcoming activities. (Some dates have changed so re-mark your calendars.) As always if you have any questions please contact us at info@thestudiochapter.org. And thank you for supporting our chapter!

Union Station Tour

On Sunday April 17th about 30 of us met for a tour of LA’s Union Station with docents from the LA Conservancy. A few of us started the day off with breakfast at famous Philippes. If you have only been for their famous French Dip sandwiches try them for breakfast sometime. It’s quite good and reasonably priced. After filling up we walked through China Town which, sadly,  is in much need of some TLC (and some trees!). Still a fun and historical place to visit. From there we headed through a bustling Olvera Street and over to Union Station.

We started at the original refurbished Information Booth for our two hour tour and wound our way through all the main buildings/sections, courtyards, and a peek into the Harvey House Restaurant. (If you haven’t been to Union Station since it was fully refurbished in 2014 it’s worth the trip. The place is gleaming with all the restored brass and fixtures. It’s quite remarkable.) We then made our way down the long passenger tunnel stopping to check out some unique pieces of art along the way including ‘The A Train’ by artist Bill Bell. It took a while to see the images but once we did it was pretty amazing. Check it out here:  https://www.metro.net/about/art/artworks/-train/ We eventually made our way over to the 25 story MTA headquarters building. Inside a rather grand lobby and on the upper levels were art murals depicting aerial overviews of Los Angeles from 1870, 1910, 1960 and after 2000. We also had a great view of Union Station and LA from the 3rd story balcony.

With that our tour ended and it was time to take the Red Line subway over to Clifton’s Cafeteria for a late lunch. Clifton’s re-opened late last year after a very long 4 year refurbishment and it was worth the wait. It’s a visually impressive place—more so in person than in photos due to the dark interior. While fully refurbished the first level looks mostly like it did before but with a completely reworked cafeteria/kitchen. The upper levels really showcase owner Andrew Meieran’s eclectic decorations in the best way including a multi-story ‘tree’ fireplace, meteorite, bar that was once an elaborate church alter and many taxidermy museum quality animals. And that’s a very short list! Most everyone seemed to enjoy the food as well.

It was a great day exploring two different areas of downtown Los Angeles with its many hidden gems. Check out a few photos at the end of this post and thanks again to everyone who participated and made this a big success!

June 2016 Outing - The Little Mermaid

The Little Mermaid - Broadway Show!

Thanks for stopping by! For our June outing we are planning on seeing Disney’s The Little Mermaid at the La Mirada Theater for the Performing Arts on Sunday June 12th @ 2PM. And for those who wish to, we’ll meet at Fuddruckers for dinner after the show. McCoy Rigby Entertainment always produces stellar productions at La Mirada that rival any of the theaters in Hollywood or LA and I’m sure they won’t disappoint with this one. As it’s difficult to try and buy blocks of tickets, anyone who wants to attend will need to purchase their own ticket(s). The theater has their own website where you can choose your seat and they don’t charge astronomical service fees either. Plus there is plenty of free parking! All the details are below but if you have any questions please email me. If you do want to go don’t put off buying your tickets as they are going quickly. (Oh, and they just announced that the opening show for their 2016-2017 season is Disney’s The Hunchback of Notre Dame!! That will be starting in late September.) Lastly, please don’t get this confused with the (just announced) show being produced at the Hollywood Bowl the weekend prior. This is the Broadway stage version of the show. Hope you can make it!


The Broadway stage version at The La Mirada Theater for the Performing Arts


When: Sunday June 12th 2PM Show
Where: La Mirada Theater for the Performing Arts 14900 La Mirada Blvd, La Mirada CA 90638. Corner of La Mirada Blvd and Rosecrans Ave. Plenty of free parking around the theater.

The Studio Chapter March 20th Meeting

So we didn't make it to the LA County Fire Museum (we'll do that another time) but we did have a fun day at the parks. A few of us arrived early to experience Luigi's and the Jungle Book preview. Then we met up with the rest of the group for a relaxing lunch at Tangaroa Terrace. This is a nice place to eat in a peaceful tropical setting away from the crowds. After lunch we spent some more money in the shops and having ice cream then checked out the Frontierland construction. Since the day was somewhat 'tropical themed' we payed a visit to our favorite singing birds in The Tiki Room. All in all a nice day. Thanks to those who were able to make it! For those who signed up for the Union Station Tour, we'll see you next month! Happy Easter and Spring Greetings to you all! 

Lunch on the terrace. Clockwise from top right: Don, Steve, Dennis, Stephanie, Leslie, Peter, Robin, Richard, Eric and Ron K. (And hiding behind Dennis-Ron E.)

Club Meeting - March 20th


March 2016 Meeting Information

Hello Studio Chapter Family and Friends – With all this heat and the mid-year show and sale this past weekend you would think we were in the middle of July! Hope you are all enjoying the heat—or at least taking advantage of it somehow. J If you did make it to the show and sale we also hope you found some new treasures to add to your collection or, at least, got to visit with friends and other club members. We have information on our March meeting below. Similar to the Union Station tour space is limited so it does require an RSVP. Also please note the RSVP email for this tour. Please do not reply to this email to RSVP. (But, if you do accidentally, we will forward it onto Steve so no worries J ) We hope you can join us as it sounds interesting!

For our March meeting we will be touring The County of Los Angeles Fire Museum Association museum. They have brought together a collection including more than 60 examples of historic apparatus, some dating back to the 1800s, as well as hundreds of artifacts and thousands of photographs, related to Los Angeles County firefighting.  The most popular vehicles in the collection are the original paramedic/rescue Squad 51 and the two Engine 51s from the 1970’s television show, “Emergency!”  The collection is currently housed in warehouse locations in South Gate and Bellflower, California, as construction gets underway on a permanent museum building nearby in Bellflower.

Also included in the collection are two vehicles that will be popular with members of the Studio Chapter - an 1888 Silsby Steam Fire Engine, and a 1916 American LaFrance Fire Engine (aka:  the Disneyland Fire Engine driven around Main Street, U.S.A. and used as a mobile bandstand for the Firehouse 5 - Plus Two Dixieland Jazz band).  Both vehicles belonged to Ward Kimball, and were donated to the museum after his passing.

After our tour, we will make our way to a local eatery for lunch and socializing.

RSVP’s ARE REQUIRED.  Our volunteer can handle a group of 20.  If we have more, he can arrange for a second volunteer, and we will split the group in 2, with a maximum group size of 40.  Email RSVP’s to info@thestudiochapter.org on or before March 13th.

While the museum does not charge for tours, the Studio Chapter is requesting a donation of $5 from each attendee, to help the museum’s efforts.  Acquisitions, restorations and operating funds for the museum are supported by monthly and annual membership dues paid by over 3,000 active-duty Los Angeles County fire fighters, retirees, members of other fire departments and the public.  No federal, state or local funds are provided for this effort.

When: Sunday, March 20th, starting at 10:00am (allow about 2 hours for the tour)
Where: Los Angeles County Fire Museum - 9834 Flora Vista Street, Bellflower, CA  90706
RSVP: Forward or send an email to Steve Lombard at: info@thestudiochapter.org on or before March 13th.
Payment: Please bring your $5 cash or check donation with you to the tour.
Let’s Eat!: We will determine a local restaurant to have lunch at after the tour.  If you can, please indicate if you are interested in joining the group for lunch so we can plan.
