Coming Up This Week:
ONE TO ONE:
JOHN & YOKO - Wed. May 14 at 7:30pm: An expansive and revelatory inside look at the
18 months John Lennon and Yoko Ono spent living in Greenwich
Village in the early 1970s, ONE TO ONE: JOHN & YOKO
delivers an immersive cinematic experience that brings to
life electrifying, never-before-seen material and newly
restored footage of Lennon's only full-length, post-Beatles
concert. With mind-blowing remastered audio overseen by their
son, Sean Ono Lennon, the film is a seismic revelation that
will challenge pre-existing notions of the iconic couple.
__________
SINNERS - Fri. May 16 @ 7:30pm: A
rip-roaring fusion of masterful visual storytelling and
toe-tapping music, writer-director Ryan Coogler's first
original blockbuster reveals the full scope of his singular
imagination. Not only a deliciously
vicious vampire hit, but an unapologetically Black genre
knockout ablaze with a killer cast and a cranked-up score.
__________
SOMETHING MISSING - Sat. May 17 @ 7:30pm: Something
Missing is an inspiring dramedy about queerness, family,
love, and belonging, presented by Halifax's Unnatural
Disaster Theatre Company. It's the winner of FIVE AUDIENCE CHOICE AWARDS at the 2024
Halifax Fringe Festival.
“This
show is a love letter to family, to community, to trans and
queer joy, and to a better and more hopeful future. In a
world where a lot of trans people, including myself, feel
despair and isolation, I wanted to depict a better reality,
where we can reach towards each other, take accountability
for our wrong actions, and learn how to love and be tender
with others and ourselves." - Lawson Hannaford,
Playwright & Director
