From left, Amanda Carson Green as Claire, Chad Withers as Hal and Kerri Petersen as

Catherine appear in Denton Community Theatre’s staging of Proof.

Denton audiences have arare chance to see what DentonCommunity Theatre represen-tatives have to do to win atevery level of the AmericanAssociation of CommunityTheatre’s competition festival.

When season ticket holdersand patrons sit down to watchthe David Auburn dramaProof, they’ll be peeking behindthe scenes.

The cast and crew of thedrama will set up the minimalset, perform a cutting of thedrama in 60 minutes, thenstrike the set.

“We’re showing the audienceexactly what the judges andaudiences will see during the[Texas Nonprofit Theatres]festival,” said Mike Barrow,managing director of the com-munity theater. “It’s not some-thing our audiences get to see.”

Art nerds and theater buffswill probably be the most inter-ested in seeing how cast andcrew work as a team to produce

a seamless and professionalshow. Entertainment seekerswon’t be left out in the cold,though.

Director Jeannene Abneysaid the drama is a meaty playabout family dynamics, andthat the company has recruiteda cast that is, in majority, madeup of theater teachers.

Proof is about a pair of sistersstruggling to reconcile theirbroken relationship in thewake of their father’s mental ill-ness and death. Their father,Robert (John Evarts) was amathematical genius. Hisdaughter Catherine (KerriPetersen) fears she’s inheritedher father’s madness in tandemwith his genius. Her sister,Claire (Amanda CarsonGreen), fears the same. Theirgrief is interrupted whenRobert’s protege discovers agroundbreaking mathematicalproof in the professor’s papers,and Catherine insists the proofis her work.

“There isn’t any spectacle inthis show,” Abney said. “And itis a difficult show to direct, butI think it’s almost as if there is aprofoundness in its simplicity.The equation in question here

is life. Life isn’t anything likemath. Life doesn’t have allthese precise answers.”

The directorial team hastapped into one of its biggeststrengths to keep the audienceinterested. Mildred A. Peveto, amember of the festival team,said she and Jeannene Abneyworked with the scenic design-er to have a simple set that isripe with triangles, a basic ele-ment not just in math, but inrelationships.

The drama opens Friday andruns through Jan. 23.Performances are 7:30 p.m.Friday and Saturday, Jan. 14-15and Jan. 21-22, with 2 p.m.matinees on Sunday and Jan.23.

Tickets cost $20 for adults,$18 for seniors age 62 andolder and $10 for children andall students with a valid ID. Tomake reservations, visit www.campustheatre.com or call940-382-1915.

The company will perform inthe festival at about 8:30 p.m.Jan. 28 at the Medical Center ofLewisville Grand Theatre, 100N. Charles St. in Lewisville.

A look deep withinPhotographer Dornith

Doherty will tell thestory behind the arrest-

ing images in her solo show,“Vault,” at 7 p.m. Wednesday ata downtown gallery.

Doherty, a University ofNorth Texas College of VisualArts and Design professor,completed an intensive pho-tography series documentingthe work being done to pre-serve the world’s crops last yearafter being awarded a fellow-ship by the UNT Institute forthe Advancement of the Arts.

The project culminated witha premiere exhibition at UNTon the Square. Doherty tookpictures at the Svalbard GlobalSeed Vault in Norway. She alsoused on-site X-ray equipmentat the National Center forGenetic Resources Preser-vation in Fort Collins, Colo.,

and at Royal Botanic Gardens,Kew’s Millennium Seed Bankat Wakehurst Place in Sussex,

England, to photograph seedsand cloned plants from thosefacilities’ extensive storagevaults.

The result is a series of docu-mentary photographs depictingthe setting where seeds arestored in a vault carved into theice of a Norwegian mountain.Her X-ray photographs of seedsand cloned seeds, though, arethe stars of the show. Throughthe unflinching lens of an X-raymachine, the seed photographshave a celestial, otherworldlyfeel.

The gallery talk is free. Thegallery is located at 109 N. ElmSt.

The exhibit will run throughFeb. 8. Gallery hours are 9 a.m.to noon and 1 to 5 p.m. Mondaythrough Friday, and 11 a.m. to 3p.m. Saturday.

Stormy weather

With a lot of heat andjust as much imagi-nation, artist David

Keens can turn a storm into astill life in glass.

Still life might not be themost precise word, but Keens,the 2007 official artist of Texas,can stop a vortex in time. Keensis the 2011 gala artist for theDenton-based Visual ArtsSociety of Texas. His solo showopens at 5:30 p.m. Jan. 21 inthe Gough Gallery at theCenter for the Visual Arts, 400E. Hickory St.

“David Keens: A Look Back”is a show that presents Keens’older work, as well as new work— the artist’s glass tornadoes.

Keens directs the glass pro-gram at the University of Texasat Arlington, and his recent

works reveal a craftsman whois surrounded by the graphics,symbols and strong colors ofthe digital revolution. His takeon these images, though, isbased in the techniques andskill of a master with a sharpeye.

The Jan. 21 gala begins witha reception, with a catered din-ner at 6:25 p.m. Keens discuss-es his work and leads a presen-tation at 7 p.m.

The gala is a fundraisingevent for the society. Ticketsare $35 for society members,$50 for non-members. Patrontables are $750 and sponsortables are $500.

For reservations, call LynneCox at 972-827-8647 or [email protected].

The storm that ate the apps: David Keens relies on meas-

ured and careful craftsmanship to make a glass tornado.

Shards of colored glass caught up in the vortex make a

viewer wonder how a teacher tolerates a classroom full of

iPhones.

The Lo-Fi Chorus hasn’tlogged many hours onthe local stage recently,

but the rare chance to seesinger-guitarist ErikThompson and drummerChad Walls makes the band’sshow tonight at Dan’sSilverleaf all the more of amust-see gig.

Thompson drives the band,producing mostly a stripped-down country-folk sound thatachieves a cosmopolitan pati-na in spite of lyrics that threat-en to box a listener into a red-neck junkyard.

The credit goes to Thomp-

son for writing songs thatsound bumpkin-lite on onelevel, but keen on another.

To date, the Lo-Fi Chorus’track “Bartender” stands as theband’s dash of brilliance. It’s asimple story of a bar patronfiddling with a tip jar only tobe thought a thief by the manat the tap and bottles.

The track, from the band’sself-titled debut, could also bea love note to any Dentonwatering hole, where everyoneis working an angle. The bar-

tender needs the tips fortuition, the musician needs acrowd to pay for indie studiotime and the patron? He justwants a stout drink and a songto scratch his beard to.

Lo-Fi Chorus released itssecond album, Something inthe Air, in 2006.

Sounds like: Tom Pettytook a trans-Atlantic flightwith Willie Nelson.

Details: Lo-Fi Chorusshares the stage at Dan’s withWelcome Signs and TonyFerraro. Music starts at 10p.m. Cover is $5.

Tiger keeps its muse

deep and wide. As the

name suggests, this tiger isn’t

as much a tame beast as it is

a shadow of something that

once was ferocious. The duo

gig at 9 p.m. Tuesday at Dan’s

Silverleaf, 103 Industrial St.

Expect acoustic Americana

and touches of psychedelia

and prog rock by the brainy

experimentalists of the 1960s.

Harmonies interlock and seem

to bounce and plod at the

same time. Lennon’s tenor and

Muhl’s soprano are well

matched, often to dreamy

results. The musical pair

released their debut, Acoustic

Sessions, as the fourth record

on their shared label, Chimera

Text and photos by Ellen Ritscher Sackett

What better way to stave off the wintry chills than a piping hot bowl of homemade soup?Almost every Denton restaurant offers at least one soup on its menu, and many haverevolving selections that change daily. Narrowing down this list was a challenge, but

here are a few you can count on to warm you up when the temperatures drop.

The Abbey Inn Restaurant and Pub

Cup $3.99, bowl $5.99. 101 W. Hickory St. 940-566-5483. Open 11 a.m.to 10 p.m. Sunday through Wednesday and 11a.m. to midnight Thursday through Saturday.

The Abbey Inn’s French onion soupis made with beef and chicken stockadded to a sweet onion, sherry andbutter reduction. But what makes thisversion memorable is the homemadecroutons — soppy-soft bite-sized pil-lows made from sourdough, wheat-berry, pumpernickel and marble ryebreads — covered by a thin layer ofmelted Harvarti cheese, which holds

in the heat and contains the flavors. Next time you’re in the neighbor-

hood, stop by and check out the recentrenovations in the lower level of therestaurant on the southeast corner ofthe downtown Square. What was oncethe Boiler Room, dedicated to livemusic, is now the Abbey Under-ground.

Co-owner Tim Trawick said theyhave added seating and are “trying tocreate a cozy pub environment,” whichwill feature 99 bottles of beer on theback wall of the bar. For now, themenu will be the same upstairs asdown, so either way you can have yoursoup and eat it too.

Ramen Republic Noodle House

$5, large $6.50, monster $8. 210 E. Hickory St. 940-387-3757. Open Monday

through Thursday from 11 a.m. to 9:30 p.m.,Friday and Saturday from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m.,

and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 9:30 p.m.

This is not the curly, compact, low-budget ramen that goes on sale at thegrocery store in packages of 10 for $1.These are long, thin, elegant noodlesthat swim in broth hot off the stove.

First-time customers to RamenRepublic are walked through the five-step process of building their ownnoodle dishes. Picking the bowl size isthe first big decision — big, bigger,biggest — followed by selecting an all-natural, low-sodium vegetable, garlicbeef or ginger chicken broth.

Next, choose from one of four types

of noodles and add the protein, eithertofu, plain or sesame ginger chicken,slow-roasted pulled pork or Asianbeef mini-meatballs. Tenderloin tipsor the salmon filet are available for anadditional charge as well as extrassuch as baby spinach, fresh basil,edamame or egg.

Lastly, a small bowl filled with yourchoice of veggies from the compli-mentary bar can be tossed into themix while your soup is prepared

behind the counter. In minutes, themeal is complete.

Ramen Republic is a place wherestrict vegans and shameless carni-vores sit side by side, where the blandmeets spicy, and hot meets cold.Owner Charlie Foster, who openedthe Asian-inspired restaurant nearthe Industrial Street area last June,said, “There are over 1 million differ-ent bowl combinations available.” Ameat-eater’s suggestion: Try the pork.

BanterCup $4, bowl $5.

219 W. Oak St. 940-565-1638. Open 10 a.m. to midnight daily.

Tomato basil ranks right upthere as the most popular soupin town, if the number ofrestaurants that boast a recipeis any indication.

Banter’s won this featurespot for being the most unique,with low-fat cream cheeseblended with crushed toma-toes, fresh basil, garlic, salt,pepper and extra virgin oliveoil. The recipe came fromMichelle Kuzov, who sold therestaurant to Stephen Johnsonand Ellen Ryfle in January.

Ryfle said Banter lovers neednot worry; the atmosphere ofthe artsy downtown hangoutwill not change. It will still offerlive music, feature local artistsand continue the Thursdayopen mic night, one of the fewleft in the area. The menu willundergo a slight revision inFebruary, but favorite dishes,including the tomato basilsoup, will remain.

Try these other deservingtomato basil soups when you’reout and about town: Bochy’s,for its superb garlic infusion,

Hannah’s Off the Square, for itsheavy, cream-based, don’t-start-your-diet-today concoc-tion; and Round Belly Cafeinside the Antique Experience

of Denton, for one unnamedingredient that chef BaldemarRivera says keeps customerscoming back for more.

Good Eats GrillCup $2.99, bowl $3.99, add-on to a meal $1.49. 5812 N. Interstate 35. 940-387-3500. Open 11

a.m. to 9 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and 11a.m. to 10 p.m. Friday and Saturday.

It’s winter, so think summer, as inIndian Summer Soup — one of three ofGood Eats’ soup offerings, which alsoinclude a daily special and tomato basil.

“It’s our best-selling soup,” saidkitchen manager Eric Wright. The gold-en yellow comfort food looks as warm asit tastes, made with melted Americancheese, chicken, onion, margarine, gar-lic, mushrooms and corn with an ever-so-slight kick from poblano pepper.

Denton is fortunate to be home to oneof only three Good Eats restaurants leftin Texas from a chain serving ranch-style food that started off with a bang in1986 by E. Gene Street. Street alsobegan the Black-eyed Pea country-stylechain and several other successfulDallas-based restaurants and became afounder of Consolidated RestaurantOperations Inc., which oversees theoperations of successful chains in theDallas-Fort Worth area, such as ElChico, Cantina Laredo and III Forks aswell as Good Eats.

Unlike other repeateries whose menuitems are often at least partially premade,Good Eats uses all fresh produce and cre-ates all of its recipes in-house fromscratch, which makes its ranch-stylemeals particularly mmm, mmm good.

International Foods of Denton

$3.99.609 Sunset St. 940-383-2051.

Open from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Mondaythrough Saturday and from

noon to 8 p.m. Sunday.

For a simple soup that’s goodand good for you, try the lentilsoup from International Foodsof Denton, one block south ofUniversity Drive. This restau-rant, which opened its doors toDenton over 16 years ago, spe-cializes in Mediterranean,Persian, Greek and Middle

Eastern cuisine.The lentil soup is “very

healthy,” said Kim Pourmor-shed, who owns and operatesthe restaurant with her hus-

band, Ali. “It’s good for your stomach,

your body and your hormones,”she said. In addition to crushedlentils, the soup contains ablend of carrots and onions,herbs and some secret spicesthat make it special, Pour-morshed said.

The ingredients are blendedinto a thin, smooth soup thatgoes down easily, a good choicefor a sensitive tummy, andreheats well. Customers can askfor a side of pita bread as well,perfect for scraping the bowl toget every last drop.

Los Toreros $5.99.

2900 Wind River Lane, Suite 134. 940-390-7693. Open 11 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and

11 a.m. to midnight Friday and Saturday.

Those who live on the south side oftown can indulge in this healthy pickfrom Unicorn Lake’s new upscaleMexican restaurant, Los Toreros,which took its recipe from its big sisterrestaurant, El Matador.

The two versions are virtually iden-tical. They both start with chickencooked in a tomato-based broth chockfull of vegetables, including corn, car-rots, celery, onion and red and greenpeppers. Each is topped with crispytortilla strips and avocado.

The only difference? The cheese. ElMatador’s version is laden with moz-zarella, while Los Toreros comes witha slice of queso fresco. Los Toreros’portion is for smaller appetites, but italso comes with a side of Spanish rice.

1663 Scripture St. 940-566-5671. Open 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Mondaythrough Saturday and 11:30 a.m.

to 9 p.m. Sunday.

This slightly sweet, slightlyspicy Vietnamese rice noodlesoup makes more than a meal.Pho lovers can add chicken orbeef to Mr. Chopstick’s version,which is made from a chicken-based broth rather than themore traditional beef stock.According to owner ChaiTamprateep, the quality of thebroth is “crucial.”

“To have good soup, you haveto have good broth,” he said.

His pho is steeped with onion,garlic and spices, which include

anise, cinnamon stick, car-damom and fresh ginger. Limes,bean sprouts, jalapeno slices,cilantro and plum sauce sidescome served on a plate coveringthe bowl, ensuring the soup willbe hot when it arrives at thetable. Other condiments, suchas soy sauce and chili paste, arealready on the table available foradditional soup doctoring.

This 25-year-old Asianrestaurant, which moved fromHickory Street to its currentlocation north of the Universityof North Texas campus, featuresChinese, Thai and Japanesecuisines. Other best-sellers?“We sell a lot of hot and sourand egg drop soup,” Tamprateepsaid.

yet powerful drama, set in the late

1970s, about a former Black Panther

(Anthony Mackie) who returns to the

racially tense Philadelphia neighbor-

Washington) but plenty of trouble

with old acquaintances. Director

Tanya Hamilton gets some fine per-

Jay Chou, left, and Seth Rogen star in The Green Hornet.

Faster than a speeding stoner

By Boo AllenFilm Critic

Not all superheroes arecreated equal. Some arebrave, humble, intelli-

gent and handsome. And someare the Green Hornet.

Michel Gondry, a Frenchpurveyor of whimsy andabsurdity (Eternal Sunshine ofthe Spotless Mind, The Scienceof Sleep), is behind this latestcinematic edition of a 75-year-old comic book, radio serialand television series. And theonly thing more incongruousthan Gondry interpreting hisversion of the original ridicu-lous premise is that Seth Rogenplays the title character.

Rogen also co-wrote thescreenplay with Evan Goldberg,and the two writers make themain character of Britt Reidsimply the latest Apatow-inspired, wide-eyed stoner dudecaught in the wrong place.Combined with Gondry’s typi-cally erratic direction, it resultsin an uneven lump of humor,black humor, feigned romance,artificial action sequences, car-toonish violence and faux hero-ics.

When his father (TomWilkinson) dies, Britt Reid

inherits his wealth, includingLos Angeles’ faltering newspa-per, The Daily Sentinel. Reidalso befriends his father’s automechanic, Kato (Jay Chou),who turns out to have superfighting skills to go along withhis clever inventiveness. Beforelong, they have taken theiralter-personae as the GreenHornet and his sidekick, acrime-fighting duo with agarage full of nifty cars, cheesymasks, trench coats andunseemly fedoras.

Their main nemesis, Chud-nofsky (Christoph Waitz), aimsto control all the city’s crime.But, he seems more intent onplaying than menacing.

Screenwriters Rogen andGoldberg are more comfortablesupplying snappy retorts andsophomoric one-liners for BrittReid than in crafting any kindof a consistent, coherent story,

an omission hindered furtherby Gondry’s tendency to let hisactors mug it up and to drawout empty sequences.

Gondry must have madeRogen feel at home, letting thelimited actor deliver insults, kickgroins and chuckle frequently athis own brilliance. Besides thesedistractions, Cameron Diazappears as the gratuitous beautywho befuddles all men andsolves all problems.

John Schwartzman’s hazy,often drab photography dead-ens the look of the film, accen-tuating the fact that little rea-son seems to exist for also mak-ing this film a 3-D attraction.But, dredging up a marginallysuccessful 75-year-old propertynever made sense anyway.

DR. BOO ALLEN is anaward-winning film critic forthe Denton Record-Chronicle.

cousin Eustace (Will Poulter). They

join Prince Caspian (Ben Barnes) on

the ship the Dawn Treader and head

toward the end of the world, but not

before a series of action scenes and

an army of computer-generated

monsters. Decent, but not equal to

the first two in the series. Rated PG,

115 minutes. — B.A.

Country Strong While recuperating

at a rehab facility, country-music

superstar Kelly Canter (Gwyneth

Paltrow) takes a romantic interest in

musician Beau Hutton (Garrett

Hedlund). Kelly includes Beau in her

plans as she prepares for a come-

back tour orchestrated by her man-

ager husband, James (Tim McGraw),

who also has a protege (Leighton

Meester) he is grooming for stardom.

Rated PG-13, 117 minutes.

The Fighter (��) In a story based

on two actual half-brothers from

Lowell, Mass., Mark Wahlberg plays

Mickey Ward, a promising boxer,

who trains with his crack-addicted

brother, Dickie Eklund (Christian

Bale). David O. Russell directs but

fails to find much of interest in the

dead-end brothers and their cine-

matically stale story. Rated R, 114

minutes. — B.A.

Gulliver’s Travels (�) Jack Black is

his typically obnoxious self as

Gulliver, a mail clerk who lies his way

into writing a travel article on the

Bermuda Triangle. On the subsequent

Caribbean trip, he accidentally lands

in Lilliput, land of little people feuding

with their enemy. Gulliver saves the

day while also expediting a romance

between a princess (Emily Blunt) and

a commoner (Jason Segal). This

appallingly stupid insult to Jonathan

Swift contains adolescent humor and

primitive special effects, and should

appeal only to toddlers. If that. Rated

PG, 87 minutes. — B.A.

DININGContinued from Page 11

It Gets) returns with another of his

character-driven romantic comedies

about the interconnected relation-

ships between a top softball player

(Reese Witherspoon), a smug base-

ball star (Owen Wilson), a down-on-

his-luck corporate executive (Paul

Rudd) and his crooked father (Jack

Nicholson). It’s well-acted, but the

meandering script feels more familiar

than fresh by Brooks’ standards.

Rated PG-13, 121 minutes. — T.J.

The King’s Speech (��) Colin

First plays the Duke of York, the next

King George VI, who, before ascend-

ing to the crown, struggles to over-

come a halting stammer. He enlists

the help of an unorthodox speech

therapist (Geoffrey Rush). Well

observed, thoughtful, intelligent film

from director Tom Hooper, with an

excellent supporting cast: Helena

Bonham-Carter, Derek Jacobi, Guy

Pearce, Michael Gambon. Rated R,

118 minutes. — B.A.

Little Fockers (��) This third entry

in the Meet the Parents series ranks

as the dumbest of all, a dubious

achievement. This time, Jack Byrnes

(Robert DeNiro) has health problems

and wants to make sure his son-in-

law Greg (Ben Stiller) can take care of

Jack's daughter Pam (Teri Polo). The

gags center on erectile dysfunction,

enemas, poop and every lower com-

mon denominator. Dustin Hoffman

and Barbra Streisand appear briefly.

Rated PG-13, 98 minutes. Now play-

ing. — B.A.

Season of the Witch A knight

returning from the Crusades (Nicolas

Cage) finds Europe ravaged by the

Black Plague. When he and his friend,

Felson (Ron Perlman), are ordered to

take an accused witch to a remote

abbey to destroy her powers, they

realize that their prisoner is no ordi-

nary girl, and evil forces await them

at their destination. Rated PG-13, 95

minutes.

Tangled (��1/2) Energetic 3-D ani-

mated musical retelling of the story of

Rapunzel (voiced by Mandy Moore),

the teenage girl whose long, flowing

hair possesses magical powers, caus-

ing her to be kidnapped and held in a

tower until a petty thief becomes her

unlikely rescuer, leading to an adven-

ture filled with quirky characters both

good and evil. It’s a crisply animated

tale with a couple of standout produc-

tion numbers and a strong heroine.

While slow in spots, it has appeal for

all ages. Rated PG, 101 minutes. — T.J.

The Tourist (��) The pairing of

Oscar winners Johnny Depp and

Angelina Jolie lend star power to this

otherwise muddled romantic thriller

about a math teacher (Depp) who

crosses paths with an alluring

stranger (Jolie) on a train to Venice,

before he realizes that she’s some-

how involved in a dangerous interna-

tional scheme. The actors can’t res-

cue a tedious mistaken-identity

script that relies on formulaic cat-

and-mouse plot mechanics. But at

least the Italian scenery helps pass

the time. Rated PG-13, 103 minutes.

Tron: Legacy Rebellious Sam Flynn

(Garrett Hedlund) is haunted by the

mysterious disappearance of his

father (Jeff Bridges, reprising his role

from 1982’s Tron), a man once

known as the world's leading video

game developer. When Sam investi-

gates a strange signal sent from the

old Flynn's Arcade — a signal that

could only come from his father —

he finds himself pulled into a digital

world where his father has been

trapped for 20 years. With Olivia

Wilde and Michael Sheen. Rated PG,

126 minutes.

True Grit (��1/2) Jeff Bridges

plays slovenly, perpetually drunk U.S.

Marshal Rooster Cogburn, enlisted

by 14-year-old Mattie (Hailee

Steinfeld) to enter American Indian

territory and find her father's mur-

derer (Josh Brolin). They are joined

by a Texas Ranger (Matt Damon).

The Coen brothers make their own

stylized Western, while also paying

heed to Western tropes and mytholo-

gy. Rated PG-13, 110 minutes. — B.A.

Yogi Bear (��) Kids might enjoy

this frenetic 3-D adaptation of the

classic cartoon, which places CGI

bears in a live-action story about a

greedy politician who wants to close

Jellystone Park just before its 100-

year anniversary. It’s up to mischie-

vous Yogi (voice of Dan Aykroyd) and

Boo-Boo (Justin Timberlake) to save

the day. The sight gags and one-lin-

ers are sporadically amusing, but the

script proves that the material isn’t

meant to be stretched to feature

length. Rated PG, 80 minutes. — T.J.

Paramount Pictures

Jeff Bridges is the hard-drinking Rooster Cogburn and Hailee Steinfeld is his young travel-
