Walking around the Wright Dunbar area, I’ve admired the vacant Allaman building at 1000 West Third. It was built in 1914 by Dr. Allaman and once housed doctor’s offices and apartments. In 2002 it was bought and refurbished by Wright Dunbar Inc. but remained empty.
Now you can add this building to the list of properties recently sold to a developer. Plans are to turn the upper two floors into four condos and rent the ground level to a store or coffee shop. Great news.

The brand new Winans Chocolates + Coffee opened quietly today at 221 N. Patterson Boulevard, just across from the ball park near RiverScape. Their actual grand opening will be this Friday.
When I went in to visit there was a line of people ready to get their caffeine fix. Owner Laurie Reiser shared that she was excited and a little overwhelmed with the new location. Not that the business was new to her, she had worked with Ben Czaka, another Winans franchise owner, as well as with Caribou Coffee, Peets Coffee and has spent the last five years with Starbucks.
She explained when they bought their first Winans franchise, located at The Greene, the business was already up and running, so creating this one from scratch was a bit more of a process. With guidance from Winans Corporate and a bit of her own decorating taste, the store has a rich, elegant and welcoming feeling The chairs just got delivered today, and they are still waiting on some of their table bases. Their wine permit is pending with the state and Laurie says she hopes to have their wine to sell by Friday.
She says she was “ready for something she could own and when CareSource came calling, offering up the location I loved the idea of being downtown where so much was happening. While there are a lot of coffee shops on the other end of town, there is nothing around here.” There is even a door that leads directly to the CareSource offices upstairs, which guaranteed them some instant business.
All Dayton area stores are franchises, withe several different owners. This will be the 21st Winans, all in Ohio, except for one lone location in Iowa. all chocolates are still made at the Piqua headquarters as is all coffee still roasted there and delivered to the stores. Currently the business, established in the early 1900’s and in its 4th generation of family ownership, still makes all the all chocolates at the Piqua headquarters and all the coffee is still roasted there and delivered to the stores, according to Winans corporate owner Laurie Winans Reiser. Coincidently there is a corporate owned Winans that also opened today in Sidney.
Whitney’s franchise stores have partnered with Boosalis Baking to bring in fresh baked goodies each day, along with the chocolates and coffee drinks, frozen hot chocolate, lattes and smoothes.
This morning, southern rock icons The Charlie Daniels Band (CDB) and The Marshall Tucker Band (MTB) announced the “Fire on the Mountain” tour, a national road show that will bring together two of the genre’s most beloved musical legends. The tour hits the road this spring and will continue throughout 2020 with more than 20 live concert dates taking place by the year’s end. The tour will kick-off on April 23rd in Enid, OK and will include a stop in Huber Heights, OH at Rose Music Center on Saturday, May 2nd. Fellow southern rocker Kyle Daniel will join Daniels and the MTB as support.
Tickets for the Huber Heights show will go on sale to the public beginning at 11:00am on Friday, January 17th at www.Ticketmaster.com and www.Rosemusiccenter.com. Ticket prices include parking and are subject to applicable Ticketmaster fees. Dates, times and artists subject to change without notice. All events rain or shine.
“The idea of us touring again with the CDB leads to all kinds of possibilities,” says MTB lead singer Doug Gray. “It’s not just about the music, but also the friendships and the reunion with the fans who’ve been with us for many years. We’ll be playing all of our hit songs as well as material from an upcoming re-released vinyl album.”
The tour title is a nod to The Marshall Tucker Band’s 1978 hit song, “Fire on the Mountain,” as well as The Charlie Daniels Band’s 1974 platinum-selling album of the same name.
“We have played more shows with the MTB through the years than any other band and have worked together for over forty years,” adds Daniels. “We have so much history and so many memories and the music is so compatible that when we get together, the audience, CDB and MTB have a big ole southern-style good time.”

The announcement was made this morning, American Factory, the documentary about the Chinese company Fuyao, was nominated for Best Documentary. This is the fourth nomination for Julia Reichert and the second nomination for Steve Bognar.
The film follows the opening of the Fuyao plant, which makes glass for automobiles, that reopened a former plant in Moraine. Led by its self-made billionaire owner, Chairman Cao Dewang, Fuyao brings along 200 experienced Chinese employees to oversee production and hires over 1000 locals. Working with 1,200 hours of footage — heroically edited by Lindsay Utz — Steve & Julia have amazing access to a complex economic reality that is touchingly hard on workers. Wages are low, work expectations high and there is certainly a culture clash between workers from the two nations.
Netflix acquired the non-fiction feature out of the 2019 Sundance Film Festival, where it won the Directing Award for U.S. Documentary.
According to a Indie wire, “The Participant Media production focuses on the dramatic culture clash when a Chinese billionaire opens a new factory in the husk of an abandoned General Motors plant, hiring two thousand blue-collar Americans. Following its Sundance premiere, the film impressed Barack and Michelle Obama, who launched their Netflix-partnered Higher Ground Productions last spring “to harness the power of storytelling,” as the former U.S. president described it at the time. This marks the first title from Higher Ground to premiere on the streaming service.”
“We are honored and thrilled that Netflix and Higher Ground are teaming up to bring ‘American Factory’ to the world,” said Reichert and Bognar in a statement. “Their energy and enthusiasm is infectious. We’re excited about the national and global conversations we believe this film can spark.”
The Dayton Battle of the Bands launches as a 6 week series, starting this week on January 14, 2020, running through February 25, 2020. The goal with this friendly competition is to shine light on new and upcoming bands in the Dayton area, while providing a prize package that helps launch them to their next level!
This new endeavor is a collaboration between The Brightside Music & Event Venue, Sound Valley, and Venus Child Productions. Carli Dixon, the owner and powerhouse behind The Brightside explained the motivation for this series: “Dayton has a long history of musical innovation, and we want to help elevate the next generation of Dayton talent.” For that reason, this competition is only open to bands and musical acts that have been performing (in their current entity) five years or less and are within a 35 mile radius of downtown Dayton.
Twenty local acts were selected by a judge’s panel, with genres ranging from hip hop to metal, and from Americana to electronic originals. The prize package for the winner includes an EP session with famed sound engineer Patrick Himes at Reel Love Recording Studio, a music video with Sound Valley, professional photo shoot with Mike Jones, and a premiere spot on the big stage at The Brightside for the Sound Valley Winter Music Festival. Along with support from those professionals, WYSO 91.3 FM and Prime Time Party Rental are sponsoring this first year’s competition.
Week 1 kicks off on January 14th and continues every Tuesday evening through February 25, 2020, which is when the finals will be held. In case of in-climate weather, February 18th will be used as a make up date. See full schedule and details on how to go below:

Cydnie Deed-King is a visual artist, mother, teacher and gallery curator. She grabbed a coffee with Dayton Artists United to talk about art and being an artist.
DAU—How long have you been an artist?
CDK—My whole life. My entire family are artists. Both my parents and my sister Taylor are artists.
DAU: How is that? I mean, artists work to express an individual point of view. That seems like it would be harder in a family of artists.
CDK—I don’t know, it hasn’t seemed harder. In some ways its easier. We had an exhibition recently, at Tend and Flourish, all of us together. That was really empowering, watching people react, placing our works together. They are really quite different. My sister does portraits. I do nature inspired scenes. Our works are unique but placed together they showed our bond.
DAU—In other artist interviews, the artists have expressed the difficulty in claiming the title artist, some say they feel like an imposter. Did growing up in a family artists make it easier to claim the title artist?
CDK—I have always felt like an artist, but I struggle with the business of art. I have sold work. That’s hard, it’s like giving away a baby, and I know what I am talking about, now that I am a mother. Each work is unique, an original. I won’t have that experience again, even if I paint the same subject. So, it’s hard to let them go, but I hug and kiss them goodbye and put on a happy face. They are going to a good home. Sometimes, people send me a picture of where they have put the work. I can see where it lives. Sometimes they write and tell me how much they love it, how people always admire it. That is nice. My work in someone’s house.
DAU—Have you sold a lot of work?
CDK—I have let go about 100 pieces. My husband reminds me that there are very famous, revered artists that never sold a work, or only one work in their lifetime. Being an artist has all these things attached to it. When you tell people, you are an artist you can see them thinking “You won’t be famous until you die.”
DAU That’s a scary thought.
CDK—For me its not about being famous. Its about living in art, about being inspired.
DAU—What inspires you?
CDK—Nature. Human connections to nature. No matter how much we try to separate ourselves from it, we’re connected. We’re meant to be one. In my imagination people are botanicals, and I show that in my work. Although, just lately I have been working more with digital images, blending nature and technology.
DAU—What artists do you admire?
CDK—Living artists? Local Artists?
DAU—Any—who do you admire and why?
CDK—I really admire Jes McMillan, the mosaic artist. She has helped me so much. She’s mentored me on how to put a show together. She’s given me opportunities and continues to invite me to participate. On January 11, the exhibition Women Strong Soul Session opens at Tend and Flourish., I have a work in that show.
DAU—This article doesn’t go online until after Jan 11th—how long will the works be on view?
CDK—Until the end of February. It’s a great exhibition. There are talented women in Dayton.
DAU—Other artists you admire?
CDK—Julie Mehretu. She’s a New York artist that does these larger than life drawings. She shares her process in the work, it’s amazing. And my sister, Taylor Deed. Her work is so bold. She uses herself as a model, her face appears in the works. I admire her versatility, the emotion she portrays on the faces. She’s powerful.
When it comes to dead artists, Leonardo DaVinci. He never stopped. He didn’t limit himself to one thing but followed his curiosity. I find him so interesting. He was a vegetarian, and ambidextrous. Someone recently interpreted his notebooks, they copied and flipped them—because he wrote backwards—and I love reading them they are so detailed and so random. On one page he wrote “learn to draw the muscles of the shoulder” and “make soup” right next to each other. He never stopped learning.
DAU—Let’s talk about Dayton.
CDK-I have only lived here about 5 years. I came from St. Louis. It’s interesting to move from a large city to a smaller one. Everything is so close. And I love the park system. The Metroparks are great. I haven’t visited them all, but I want to. Other things about Dayton….I love Young’s Dairy. And I love the art scene. There is a lot happening here.
DAU—Talk to me about the art scene.
CDK—The Contemporary showed me the art scene in Dayton. I started there as a volunteer, and now I am a curatorial assistant.
DAU—What does that involve?
CDK—A little bit of everything. I help marketing events, hanging works, I write up materials: I help everybody. I’ve learned so much working there. Eva has a great curatorial eye, so working with her I’ve learned how to look at art not just for its own sake, but also for how it fits a show idea or its marketability. There’s a lot to think about in that respect. If you want to sell your art, you have to have saleable art. How big is it? Huge works are hard to sell to an individual.
DAU—Let’s change direction a bit—if you could add anything to the Dayton art community—if price were no object—what would you add?
CDK—An amusement park for artists! A big workspace with all kinds of cool equipment. Something large. That would be fun!
What we need, though, really need is something to teach young artists about the business of art. There is more to being an artist than creating pictures. You have to be an entrepreneur. We need to be taught to mount our work. We need to learn how to respond to a call for artists—does my work fit the show?
The Contemporary did something like that—it was called the ArtSource Fellows program. It engaged about 25 artists in a business of art program. I enjoyed it and learned a ton. Eva talks about bringing it back, she wants to foster artists. Unlimited funds would help that!
And since we’re dreaming, we need a massive art store with good pricing. There is an art supplycoming, I read about it. Hue House. Its going to be near the Catfe. We need that.
DAU—What would you like people to know about art?
CDK—I live by this mantra: “Support living artists, the dead don’t need it.” We’re out here trying to make a living.
DAU—Time for another subject shift. If your life was made into a movie, who would you want to play you?
CDK—Lupita Nyong’o or Michonne from The Walking Dead, you know, Danai Gurira. Yeah, either one of those would be good.
DAU—Tell me one scene from your life that would have to be included in the movie.
CDK—Meeting my husband, Alex. We met on the 1st day of college at freshman move in. The RA made us play a getting-to-know-you game of musical roommates. He called out things like “back to back” or “head to head” and you had to stand with a different partner each time with those parts of you touching. Alex and I were paired for ‘head to butt.” We’ve been together for eleven years, married for five.
DAU—And what would our movie be called?
CDK—Oh, that’s hard. If my life were a movie, it’d be called “Art of Madness” because I feel that a lot of artists go crazy on some level, such as internalizing everything around them, questioning their abilities, their decision to become an artist—and some even go so far as to take their own lives unfortunately. However, even out of all that inner turmoil or “madness” if you will, something beautiful comes from it, and it’s something that will make someone else stop in their tracks to take a second look. All artists (the ones that I know anyway) have a method to their own kind of craziness and use it to fuel their art. I definitely went through several moments where I questioned everything about myself as artist and whether or not I did the right things at the right time. I felt like I was going crazy, but I worked through my mental roadblocks and created art that was better than ever!
DAU—I believe it. I’ve seen your work. Cydnie Deed-King, Thank you so much!
CDK—Thank you.

Sparks both dramatic and dysfunctional fly profoundly in Tennessee Williams’ landmark 1945 semi-autobiographical memory play The Glass Menagerie. However, in the event those sparks lack pizzazz, two significant safety nets typically make up for any shortcomings, which defines Xenia Area Community Theater’s presentation.
As the centerpieces of Act 2 under the direction of Mike Taint, Kristin Curby and Ben Evory, both delivering XACT debuts, are worth the wait as Laura Wingfield and Jim O’Connor, also known as the Gentleman Caller. The moment a hearty dinner concludes in the dark and Jim is asked to spend some quality time with hopelessly shy Laura by candlelight, this emotionally mild production suddenly finds its footing, enjoyably transitioning into the heartwarming and heartbreaking reunion Williams intended. In high school, the physically challenged Laura pined for All-American Jim, but her deep insecurities and his overwhelming popularity kept them from becoming more than social acquaintances. As if in a dream, after years of wondering what became of Jim, Laura finally has him all to herself, but the unexpected momentousness of the occasion and the hard truth Jim reveals about his relationship status is ultimately too much for her fragile soul to bear.
Curby, soft-spoken, believably frazzled and nicely costumed by Dee Berdine and Debra Zweber, wonderfully conveys Laura’s expressive arc from reticence (delightfully taking only a pinch of Jim’s chewing gum when offered) to acceptance (energetically recalling Jim’s glory days via her trusty yearbook and lovingly giving him a souvenir from her meaningful glass menagerie). Evory, charismatic, vibrant and sensitive, equally appeals with sharp authenticity recognizing Jim’s delicate balance of attempting to be Laura’s life coach while acknowledging the pitfalls, desires and uncertainty fueling his own topsy-turvy trajectory. In particular, Evory’s effortlessness is an extension of his knack for characterization as a recent graduate of Wright State University’s BFA film program. In fact, his excellent, humorous short film Slushie was featured on opening night of the Dayton LGBT Film Festival last fall.
As for Laura’s overbearing mother Amanda and incredibly disillusioned brother Tom, the central duo driving this landmark drama set in 1937 St. Louis, Amy Taint and Ryan Hester tussle admirably but a fundamental disconnect exists. In his XACT debut, Hester, a notably outstanding George Gibbs in Springfield Stageworks’ Our Town, certainly fares better, giving credence to Jim’s volcanic behavior and overt frustration when pushed to the breaking point and splendidly delivering his quietly reflective and poetic monologues on the deck of the SS Pennwar six years later with great maturity. Conversely, Taint inhabits Amanda with gentle, passive and comedic sensibilities, off-kilter choices diminishing the play’s electricity and Amanda’s inherently dynamic matriarchal strengths. She only rises to an impressive level of domineering authority when Amanda defiantly throws Tom out of her house and her life.
Nevertheless, thanks primarily to Mike Taint’s effective projections and delicately staging one of the greatest scenes in American playwrighting with affection and surprise bolstered by Curby and Evory’s chemistry, this Menagerie still manages to shine.
The Glass Menagerie continues through January 19 at Xenia Area Community Theater, 45 E. Second St., Xenia. Performances are 7:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday and 3 p.m. Sunday. Act One: 75 minutes; Act Two: 75 minutes. Tickets are $17. For tickets or more information, call (937) 372-0516 or visit xeniaact.org.

The ability of singer, composer, actor, and activist Wyclef Jean to channel raw emotion into one song after another has made him a champion of the world’s people. The music that he has written, performed, and produced — both as a solo superstar and as founder and guiding member of the Fugees — has been a consistently powerful, pop cultural force for over two decades.
In 1996, the Fugees released their monumental album The Score, which inspired notoriously prickly rock critic Robert Christgau to write: “so beautiful and funny, its courage could make you weep.” The album, created in Wyclef’s studio in his uncle’s basement in New Jersey, hit No. 1 on the Billboard chart, spawned a trio of smash singles (including their indelible reinvention of Roberta Flack’s 1973 ballad “Killing Me Softly”), and is now certified six times platinum.
After his success with the Fugees, Wyclef Jean launched himself as a producer and solo artist, drawing from an innovative and eclectic palette that included elements of pop, country, folk, disco, Latin, and electronic music. He has been rewarded for his creativity and adventurousness with three Grammy Awards, a spot on the cover of Rolling Stone’s special “Top 50 Hip Hop Players,” and the opportunity to make music with such legends as Michael Jackson, Queen, Mick Jagger, Paul Simon, Earth, Wind & Fire, Kenny Rogers, and Tom Jones. As a solo artist, he has released six albums that have sold nearly nine million copies worldwide.
When Wyclef Jean takes the stage with an orchestra, something primal, powerful, and beautiful happens. Dayton is thrilled to welcome him to center stage at the Schuster for one night of Symphonic Hip Hop with the Dayton Philharmonic!
