The 25th Annual PutnamCounty Spelling Bee has gottenits third local treatment in Den-ton.
The University of North Tex-as Department of Dance andTheatre Arts opened its stagingof the popular musical comedylast weekend, with guest direc-tor Michael Serrecchia at thehelm.
Student performers praisedSerrecchia in a talk-back sessionlast week, after opening night.Caroline Dubberly, who playedthe role of Olive Ostrovsky, saidSerrecchia was “one of the kin-dest people” she’s worked with.
“He really pushed us to behonest in these performances,”she said.
Putnam County is about thecounty spelling bee and the ado-lescents who hope to take thetrophy. There’s last year’s cham-pion, Chip, sidelined by the firststirrings of puberty. WilliamBarfee is back with his “magicfoot” and determined to win.Marcy Park speaks six languagesand wins at everything she does.Logainne is the youngest com-petitor, and already an a left-leaning activist thanks to hertwo doting dads. And the misfitamong misfits is Leaf Coney-bear, a daffy spelling savant whomakes all his own clothes andrelies on his finger-puppetfriend for comfort.
The contestants are putthrough the paces by Rona LisaPeretti, a real estate agent andpast champion. Vice PrincipalDoug Panch is grudgingly pre-sent as a judge. Mitch Mahoneyis serving his parole communityservice requirement as a com-fort counselor. The musical wasfirst staged in Denton by a group
of Guyer High School graduates.Music Theatre of Denton re-cently staged the musical in theCampus Theatre.
Serrecchia was an originalmember of A Chorus Line, amusical that was developed thesame way Putnam County was— through workshops.
Performances are at 7:30
p.m. today, Friday and Saturday,and 2 p.m. Sunday at the Uni-versity Theatre in UNT’s Radio,TV, Film and Performing ArtsBuilding, 1179 Union Circle.
Tickets cost $15 for adults,$10 for students, seniors andUNT faculty and staff. For reser-vations, call 940-565-2428.Rated PG-13 for adult themes.

For Susan Sponsler, the only way to makesense of the death of Trayvon Martin, anunarmed teenager shot to death in San-
ford, Fla., in 2012, was to make art.As the Texas Woman’s University alumna
worked, her art blossomed into an interactiveproject that uses the hoodie — a simple hoodedsweatshirt — as an avatar for the clash of politics,race and class that boiled in the aftermath of thetrial and exoneration of George Zimmerman,who shot and killed Martin.
Sponsler’s solo exhibit “The Hoodie Project”runs through Saturday at WoCA Projects in FortWorth.
“The Hoodie Project” is an installation thatincludes 20 pieces. Sixteen are “hoodie portraits”printed in cyanotype — one of the earliest photoprinting processes — on 100 percent linen andcotton. The portraits are nearly life-size.
The WoCA Projects is a nonprofit, artist-runspace that highlights the art of women of colorworking locally, nationally and internationally.
Gallery hours are from noon to 3 p.m. Thurs-day through Saturday or by appointment. Thegallery is located at 2902 Race St., Suite 100, inFort Worth. For more information, call 817-901-7135 or visit www.wocaprojects.com.
A portion of any sales generated from theHoodie Project will be donated to the TrayvonMartin Foundation.
Sponsler fielded questions about the project,her inspiration and the future of the project.
— Lucinda Breeding
Denton Time: Why do you thinkthe idea of the hoodie resonatedwith you as a subject to make artaround for this exhibit?
Sponsler: The Trayvon Martinmurder and the subsequent outcomeof the trial of George Zimmermanmade me extremely angry and frus-trated. The Million Hoodie March inNew York City and other cities in-spired me to create the Hoodie Pro-ject as a visual protest of the acquittalof George Zimmerman and in memo-ry of Trayvon Martin, who was killedbecause he was a young black manwearing a hoodie.
Here in Denton, people of allraces wear the hooded sweatshirtthat pundit Geraldo Rivera sug-gested is an unofficial uniform forfelons across the country. Why doyou think unsavory meanings wereascribed to this garment — worn byeveryone from millionaire socialiteParis Hilton to Trayvon Martin?
I don’t know. The hoodie was notdeclared a “uniform for felons” untilafter George Zimmerman decidedTrayvon Martin was a thief becausehe was a black male and wearing ahoodie. The hood can obscure theface, but many young people todaywear hoodies, and when they have thehood up, you can still see their face.
From what you’ve sent, it looksas if the Hoodie Project is a grow-ing collection of portraits of peoplewearing hoodies. What other imag-es does the exhibit include?
One image is the outline of a bodylying on the floor. It is printed out sothat it is close to life size, and includesgraphics around it in black, white andgray that are outlined in red. A whiteplaster gun that looks like the 9mmhandgun used to kill Trayvon lies onthe chest portion of the body, near theheart. A yellow evidence marker isalso placed on the print.
Other images include an outline ofa gun burned into an open box withred wax around it. Black text in-cluding some statistics and factspulled from the Tampa Bay Timessurvey of “stand your ground” cases istransferred onto the red background.
I was horrified to discover the“stand your ground” law, and alarmedto find that Texas, along with 21 other
states, have also adopted a “standyour ground” law.
Two other images are shaped likestop signs. The fronts of the cradledwood panels are painted red and dripwith textured black wax on the sides.One has a graphic with a hand point-ing a gun out at the viewer and theother says in black text: “Stop StandYour Ground.”
Do you think this work is con-frontational?
I don’t think that it is confronta-tional, although I do understand thatit is a very controversial topic. I hopethat my artwork encourages people tostand up against racism and stereo-typing, to become aware of the many“stand your ground” law victims andto honor all victims of hate crimes.

Not many people know this,but 17th-century playwrightChristopher Marlowe is alive,sort of, relatively well, and livingin Tangiers, Morocco. Oh, andhe is a drug-pushing vampirewhose most popular product isO-negative Popsicles.
Such are the tidbits gleanedfrom Only Lovers Left Alive,the decidedly odd new featurefrom Jim Jarmusch, the godfa-ther of independent cinema.Unfortunately, despite thesequirks, nothing adds up tomuch of interest in this slice ofdrudgery from Jarmusch.
The director defies currentfads, tastes and norms by mak-
ing a film based on vampiresthat neither caters to young au-diences, nor has any sort ofcommercial appeal.
Only Lovers has a few funnybits, but it is not a spoof, satire orcomedy. It’s not a romance sincethe main characters, Adam(Tom Hiddleston) and Eve (Til-da Swinton), live apart and havebeen married for a century anda half. Plus, it never offers upanything of substance to elevateit to metaphorical or philosoph-ic levels. And it has virtually nospecial effects or fantasy se-quences.
Even at the end, it’s unclearwhat exactly Jarmusch has beenshooting for. Whatever it was,the results are a gloomy mess.
To compound the ever-in-
creasing ennui, Only LoversLeft Alive also never presentsmuch of a plot.
Adam languishes in a De-troit apartment, while Eve restsin Tangiers, near her supplier,the 400-year-old Mr. Marlowe(John Hurt). Eve eventuallytravels to Detroit to be with herhusband, but the locationdoesn’t matter because almost
the entire film takes place in agrubby apartment filled withold guitars.
We might not even knowthey are vampires if they didn’ttell us. During their time togeth-er, they pass time by talking ofold friends, you know, like Shel-ley, Mary Wollstonecraft andByron (“He was a pompousass”).
Despite his film’s slightnessand utter absurdity, Jarmuschhas somehow landed a qualityleading cast, with Hiddlestoncoming off triumphs on stagewith Coriolanus and on screenas Thor’s brother. Swinton’smere presence usually elevatesanything in which she appears,but here she simply seems lostin the morass.

Denton guitarist and bass-ist Robert Hokamp justreleased two full-length
albums at the same time.One album, Jungle Team, is a
quirky, instrumental concept re-cord, full of color and sunshine.The second, Bees, is a traditional“straight-ahead jazz record” themusician said he’d been wantingto write.
But it was Jungle Team thatcame first. It’s a weird, enticingrecord that defies easy categori-zation. Singer Jimin Lee drivesthe songs with a sweet, pure so-prano.
With no lyrics to pin herdown, Lee seems to frollickthrough the record with “la las,”“bada da dup dups” and “ya doelows” against Matt Moore’s clari-net, Hokamp’s plucking andstrumming, Sam Jones’ drums,and Spenser Liszt’s bass clarinetand tenor sax.
Sean McLellan and BenJones provide the electronicsand synthesizers on the record.To the duo’s credit, their contri-butions second the playful pos-ture of the record, and comple-ment the warm feel of the tracks— which are mostly short. Thelongest track, “The Globe,”clocks in at a compact 3 1/2 min-utes. The shortest, “Veery,” is justover a minute long.
“I was interested in the ideaof things not repeating,” Ho-kamp said. “That’s not to say itwasn’t structured, because it wasvery structured. Everything was
recorded with a click track. Very.I wanted everything to be a cer-tain way. I’m interested in moviemusic. It’s something I’d like todo. I was thinking about sound-track music.”
The record is ripe for anima-tion. “The Globe” is alternatelyhappy and mournful — perfectfor a cartoon about a little planetin a big galaxy navigating a dan-gerous course around the sun.“Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, andTomorrow” is begging for a WesAnderson movie about a boyand a girl building a time ma-chine in the attic of a drowsy un-cle. Bass clarinet gives way tosurf-punk guitar licks in“Weeps-a-pideea,” a song thatseems simple but gives Hokamproom to do his virtuosic thing onhis best instrument.
Hokamp was something of aprecocious talent. While at RyanHigh School, he was studyingguitar with University of NorthTexas jazz guitar faculty mem-ber Fred Hamilton — and hewas the only student Hamiltontaught who wasn’t in college.
Hokamp was and is a fixturein Denton punk outfit the Wee-Beasties, where he swapped gui-
tar for trumpet. After he gradu-ated from UNT, Hokamp settledin his hometown. He works as acomposer and is especially busyin Denton’s live music scene.
He plays with Bubba Her-nandez y Los Super Vatos, LosPatos Poderosos, Richard Has-kins and the Unmarked Graves,A Cruel Country, A Taste of Herb,Dangle Dixon and Palm Trio.(And local music buffs thoughtRyan Thomas Becker was busy.)
Except for the heavily impro-vised “The Dream,” Hokampsaid he wrote the music for everysong on Jungle Team. He wroteall the parts, and the band mem-bers recorded each part sepa-rately — layering the songs totheir finish.
Hokamp said he thinks ofJungle Team as a cousin to a filmscore, using music to illustratemood, emotion and color.
“I was thinking about moreof an overt narrative,” he said.“I’m always really inspired bynature. I like the idea of beinglost somewhere. It’s funny, too.The music isn’t too, too serious.”
For all its structure, JungleTeam is full of whimsy. BetweenLee, Liszt and Moore’s singing
with voice and woodwind andeven strumming from Hokamp,the record sounds free of pre-tense.
Hokamp is handy with mak-ing technique serve his ideas. Allthe musicians involved are clear-ly competent and clever. Butthey aren’t mannered or showy.By the time we get to “FriendlierPeople” on the album, the clari-net almost twirls, until Ho-kamp’s guitar work — sharphigh-fives of notes — suggeststhey drop the dancing and dosome socializing.
The band started working onJungle Team in the fall of 2012,and Hokamp said productiontook more time than anticipat-ed.
Bees hatched more easily.Hokamp gathered a differentgroup of players to make his sec-ond record: Stuart Mack ontrumpet, Nick Salvucci on tenorsaxophone, Young Heo on bassand Matt Young on drums.
“I wanted to do a jazz album,”Hokamp said. “I wanted, beforeI did a bunch of albums, to makea straight-ahead jazz record.”
The 10-track record was in-spired — at least distantly — bysaxophonist and composerWayne Shorter. Shorter provedhimself to be a fluent composer,writing modal jazz (think JohnColtrane in the early 1960s) andmashing up R&B, funk and soulinto jazz (think Grover Wash-ington or Al Jarreau, who head-lines the Denton Arts & JazzFestival on Friday) while alsowriting hard bop.
“Jazz can be simpler thanpop,” Hokamp said. “When youwrite a melody, it has to be clearenough to give the improviserssomething to go on.”

The Denton Arts & Jazz Festival is afamily event through and through,but event organizers are careful to
cater to their youngest attendees. There’sthe children’s art tent, where they get toleave with a piece of art they’ve made withthe help of volunteers. And percussionist
Steve Gryb is bringingback his kid-friendlyracket for the fifth year.
Gryb is a Miami-based percussionistand teacher who trav-els with his “Rhythm IsGoing to Get You”show and his percus-sion petting zoo that
keeps children streaming into his booth.The petting zoo encourages children totry their hands at percussion instrumentsat a leisurely pace.
Gryb shared a sneak peek at the shak-ing, rattling and thumping he’ll bring tothe jazz festival.
— Lucinda Breeding
Denton Time: Whatkeeps you coming back tothe Denton Arts & JazzFest?
Gryb: I love how profes-sionally run the festival is.Everything is so well orga-nized, and Carol Short is apleasure to work with. Also,the people and kids are sowell behaved and a lot of fun
to entertain. I think theyreally appreciate educationalmusic shows and exhibits inDenton with its long musichistory at the university.
What can you tell meabout the new percussioninstruments you’ll bebringing to the festival?
I have added somethingcalled a boomophone to my
percussion petting zoo activ-ity and exhibit. It’s a two-and-a-half-octave xylophonemade from Boomwhackers.It’s cool and colorful, and thekids really seem to enjoyplaying on this instrument. Ihave also added some newanimal shakers, Remo Versadrums, Zildjian cymbals andnew Remo tambourines.
What part of your pro-gram do children seem toenjoy the most?
The kids seem to enjoythe hands-on interactionwith my percussion instru-ments. They love to beat onthe bongo drums during the“Rhythm Is Going to GetYou” show, and shake themaracas, play the tambou-rines, and wiggle, jiggle andjam with me.
How can percussioninstruments open doors formusic-making for chil-dren?
Well, I believe that every-one has rhythm. My job is tobring it out of you. As the“Pied Piper of Percussion,” Iam an international ambas-sador of percussion, and I tryto bring my passion forpercussion to everyone byexposing the young andyoung at heart to variousstyles of music during myshows, and showing howmuch fun music-making canbe, utilizing the power ofpercussion to capture theirattention. I believe thatthrough education and en-tertainment (edutainment), Ican inspire, and light aspark.
It’s a hitwith kidsYoung ones can shake,rattle, tap at exhibit

phone” in his percussion petting zoo, a mainstay in the children’s area at the Denton
Arts & Jazz Festival.
Steve Gryb
Hokamp said Bees is a sim-pler record than Jungle Team.
“It was a lot harder to write,yeah,” he said. “You have a lotmore decision to make aboutwhat to leave out, what you’renot going to use.”
He said he approached thesongwriting the same way he ap-proaches drawing.
“I don’t try to start withsomething that is going to work,because I try not to be limited,”he said.
Bees reflects that. Most of thesongs are expansive. The com-poser gives clear lines and letsthe band improvise. Don’t befooled by the title. Salvucci andMack don’t buzz busily all overthe place. And Hokamp hangsback, sometimes fading deliber-ate behind Heo’s work on theupright (“Everything Sleeps”).
If there’s any metaphor to behad here, it’s that the musiciansall take up their work diligently.
Their end? To keep the sweetstuff coming, smooth and cit-rine. Young doesn’t phone it inbehind the drum kit, either. Heslips into high gear, propellingthe winds to new places.
Hokamp is a master of theblend on guitar. A guitar can beshrill and unwieldy, but he mas-ters it to the benefit of Mack andSalvucci.
Hokamp isn’t a natural front-man. When quizzed aboutwhether he had dates for a dou-ble CD release show, he gotsheepish.
“I probably should do that,but no, I haven’t,” he said.
Even as a teenager, Hokampwasn’t overdemonstrative onstage. He lets the music do theexpressing. If you’re looking fora show, you’re likely to feel cheat-ed for histrionics if you’relooking to the bassist.
But if you want music thatlives and breathes, Hokampwon’t disappoint.
As it turns out, he has a lot tosay.
