The fall season at Wesleyan has
many looking forward to the cooler
weather, the changing foliage and a
new season of entertainment from
the music and theatre departments.

very prolific, featuring 17 perfor-
mances on campus alone. The mu-
sic department also has concerts
planned at Bass Performance Hall
and the Modern Art Museum of
Fort Worth. The following list is a
highlight of what the music depart-
ment has lined up for the fall'10 sea-
son. For more information on per-
formances, times and dates, visit the
department website at www.txwes.

ano generously donated by Dr. Rich-
ard Gasser to the West Tibrary will

is also hard at work this fall build-
ing sets, making costumes, hanging
lights and rehearsing scenes all in an
effort to bring the Wesleyan com-
munity quality theatre.
The first offering this season will
be Dr. Chekhov's Vaudevilles, di-
rected by Theatre Wesleyan chair
Jeanne Everton. The productions
stage manager Sarahi Salazar said
it is going to be great working with
someone who loves the show so
much. "Its different when the direc-
tor is extremely passionate about the
show," she said.
Vaudevilles is a collection of short
comedies by writer and physician An-
ton Chekhov and will feature a host of
Wesleyan actors who will bring Chek-
hov's playfully cynical tales to life.
The play begins at 7:30 p,m. Sept. 30
- Oct. 2, and Oct. 7 - 10 in the Thad
Smotherman Theatre.
Crimes of the Heart will be Theatre
Wesleyan's next theatrical perfor-
mance in November. This Pulitzer
Prize winning play has also been
adapted into a 1986 movie starring
Jessica Tange, Sissy Spacek and Di-
ane Keaton.
It tells the story of three sisters
who have endured a traumatic
childhood together. With the dete-
riorating health of their childhood
caregiver Old Granddaddy, and the
recent legal trouble of the youngest,
Babe, it would seem that the trauma
these sisters have had to endure all
their lives will continue indefinitely.
Directed by Brynn Bristol, this
classic black comedy will be a must
see performance. For more box of-

Decadent delights migrate from south of the border

No, the best place to get a
true Mexican treat in Fort
Worth isn't Joe T. Garcia's or
Uncle Julio's.
The tastiest Mexican
munchies come from food
stands located throughout
the city called Chamoy...
puro antojo.
Easy
Specializing more in
snacks than meals, the three
Chamoys serve up snow
cones and chips with deca-
dent south-of-the-border
twists.
"It's like the real Mexican
stuff," said T.A.-raised Bryan
Torres, who discovered the
Rosedale location (not even
5 minutes from Wesleyan)
and hasn't stopped going yet.

The cochinada, "nastiness"
in English, is the gateway
snack that comes in small
and large sizes. The simple
ingredients sound odd but
meld perfectly: steamed
corn is poured into a bag
of conchitas, Mexican corn
chips, with a healthy dose of
Mexican cream and crum-
bled cheese. Those who do it
right top their cochinadas off
with the stand's homemade
lime and chile powder sauce.
There isn't a better way of
getting an entire day's calor-
ic intake in one fell swoop.
Even in the most concen-
trated Hispanic neighbor-
hoods, Fort Worth residents
would be hard-pressed to
find a menu that draws out
the crowds like Chamoy.
"I love this neighborhood,"
said Saginaw resident Alber-
to Garcia of the Rosedale lo-
cation. "They sell everything
around here."
Chamoy provides tradi-
tional snow cone flavors
such as strawberry and
pineapple, although the
fruit-based syrup Chamoy
uses will make you rethink
what a quality
snow cone is. In-
stead of slurping
down an over-
ly-sweetened,
mango-imitating
concoction —
customers find
themselves pull-
ing out actual
"mango hairs"
from between
their teeth.
The more ad-
venturous food-
ies can opt for a
chamoyada or rnangonada,

Mexico's munchies make mouths water.
which comprise the bulk of
the Rosedale location sales.
The sweet, salty and sour
taste of these Mexican snow
cone variations leave most
first-timers' taste buds con-
fused. The taste of the main
ingredient, chamoy, in the
morsels is something one
can't look up on Wikipedia.
Rather, get a small one for
$3.25—a small loss if the
taste is too exotic.
The diabilito, "little dev-
il," is pure lime juice and
spicy chile powder—defi-
nitely not for the Chamoy
novice. While delicious in
its tartness, it will set your
mouth on fire. Take warn-
ing.
Tocation-wise, the stand
on Felix Street provides the
better atmosphere (people
can even get their windows
tinted while throwing down
on their Mexi-treats). In
this miserable heat though,
using the drive-thru at the
Rosedale location seems the
better option.
