World Premiere Play: The Last of His Kind
by Jack Dalton
Directed by Ed Bourgeois
May 10 - 19
Thursdays - Saturday at 8pm
Sundays at 3pm
$20 General Admission
$15 stu/elders
Jack's 5th play encompasses the story of the last indigenous person on Earth, locked in a laboratory dedicated to "saving his people". Confronting science and religion, this futuristic play strives to help us understand what it means to be human, and what goverment, business and society define him as human. As usual, great humor will mingle with deeply disturbing content trying to find hope in humanity, strikingly bringing into focus current politics.

3rd Friday Opening: Pathetic Beauty
by Stephen Gray
Opening reception May 17 at 5:30 PM
Exhibition: May 17 - June 12
FREE
An excerpt from the artist's statement:
Pathetic Beauty is a reacquaintance with our own creatureliness. We carry with us this fragile vessel, this flawed vehicle that we both revel in and despise. But there is beauty in resistance, the struggle itself is enough to fill a man’s heart.

Eleven films ranging from 2-14 minutes long (appx. 90 min. total) - all works from around the world that deal with unique people and places outside the bustle of the city. From a fictional backpacking drama set in the Peruvian Andes, to a personal/experimental work about life in a Kazakh village, and a documentary about an organic, Appalachian turnip farm, the festival's mission (now in its ninth year) is to screen work about rare people and cultures normally overlooked by the mainstream media. It's the indie of indie films festival!
