SUMMARY:Scott Cook & the Second Chances with Ali McCormick
DESCRIPTION:The Sunset Theatre is thrilled to be hosting Scott Cook and the Second Chances along with our very own Ali McCormick!\n\nShowtime: 8PM • Doors @ 7:30PM\nTickets: $20/each\nReservations: sunsettheatre@gmail.com or call 250.994.3400\n\nThis will be our first live concert since September 2020!\nMake your reservations today as we have a limited capacity of 50 people.\nTo ensure your seat(s) send an e-transfer for $20 per ticket to sunsettheatre@gmail.com with the Subject line: Scott Cook Tickets\nJoin us for what is sure to be a wonderful evening of live music\, but also bittersweet as we bid bon voyage to our dear friend\, Ali.\n\nPlease note masks are recommended for Public Indoor Venues\, and we ask that patrons wear a mask when not seated in the theatre.\n\n  \nAlberta’s Scott Cook (www.scottcook.net) has been living out of a van or a backpack for a dozen years now\, touring almost incessantly across Canada\, the US\, Europe\, Asia\, Australia and elsewhere\, and distilling his experiences into straight-talking\, keenly observant verse.  His fourth independent release\, One More Time Around\, was nominated for a Canadian Folk Music Award\, and its opening track “Pass It Along” won the Folk and Acoustic category in the 2013 UK Songwriting Contest\, with UK magazine Maverick Country naming him “one of Canada’s most inspiring and imaginative storytellers”.  His sixth studio album Further Down the Line won him his second CFMA nomination (English Songwriter of the Year)\, and comes packaged in a 132-page book containing a look back\, in words and pictures\, on a decade of full-time travel.  He’s currently touring in support of his seventh collection\, Tangle of Souls\, which comes in a hardcover book of road stories and ruminations\, both personal and political.  Cook is one of the hardest-working DIY troubadours on the road today\, averaging around 150 shows including a dozen festivals every year since 2007.  All the hard miles notwithstanding\, he still believes that songs can change your life\, and your life can change the world. \n“As good a modern folkie as we have these days.  A voice perfect for the genre.  An understanding beyond the norm.”  –No Depression \n“He sings his heart and soul\, and in doing so lets light flood into your own… Truly one of Woody Guthrie’s children.” –RnR Magazine \n\n\nCheck out Scott’s Website:\nhttps://scottcook.net

SUMMARY:Film Screening: Much Ado About Nothing
DESCRIPTION:Tickets: $10\nRunning Time: 110 minutes\nGenre: Comedy\, Drama\, Romance\nRating: PG-13 (for momentary sensuality) \nActor Kenneth Branagh made his directorial debut with a rousing screen adaptation of William Shakespeare’s Henry V. Four years later\, he returned to the bard’s work with this lively version of one of Shakespeare’s best comedies. Don Pedro (Denzel Washington)\, the Prince of Aragon\, returns victorious from battle to the praises of the Governor of Messina\, Leonato (Richard Briers). One of Don Pedro’s bravest men\, Claudio (Robert Sean Leonard)\, falls in love with Hero (Kate Beckinsale)\, Leonato’s daughter\, and they plan to marry. However\, Don Pedro’s devious half-brother Don John (Keanu Reeves) opposes the match\, and he devises a plan to turn Hero against Claudio. Meanwhile\, Benedict (Branagh)\, Don Pedro’s second-in-command\, detests Leonato’s niece Beatrice (Emma Thompson)\, but Don Pedro cleverly brings them together by making each think that the other is secretly in love with them. Much Ado About Nothing also features Michael Keaton in a showy turn as Dogberry. \nTrailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wGlmhwa0zjw

SUMMARY:Film Screening: Paddington

SUMMARY:Film Screening: The Body Remembers When the World Broke Open
DESCRIPTION:One woman’s decision to comfort a stranger she finds crying in the street leads to a revealing and powerful conversation between two Indigenous women from very different circumstances\, in this poignant collaboration from Elle-Máijá Tailfeathers and Kathleen Hepburn. In an audacious act of heroism and kindness\, Áila (Elle-Máijá Tailfeathers) chooses to console a young woman she finds barefoot and sobbing in the streets. She soon discovers that Rosie (Violet Nelson) has just escaped an assault by her boyfriend. Compelled to take action\, Áila chooses to bring Rosie into her home and\, over the course of the evening\, the two women explore the after-effect of this traumatic event. \nThe Body Remembers When the World Broke Open is a brilliant\, poignant collaboration between two of Canada’s brightest — and boldest — filmmakers. Tailfeathers\, a member of the Kainai First Nation as well as Sámi from Norway\, triples as lead\, co-writer\, and co-director. She shares writing and directing with Kathleen Hepburn\, whose 2017 film Never Steady\, Never Still premiered at the Festival and was named to TIFF’s Canada’s Top Ten. \nUsing 16mm and presenting their narrative in “real time\,” the filmmakers craft a delicate intimacy\, which lends emotion to this remarkable story of two women’s resilience\, strength\, and mutual support. Taking its title from an essay by Indigenous poet Billy-Ray Belcourt\, and based on a watershed moment in Tailfeathers’ life\, this story of a chance encounter between two women — living in the same Vancouver neighbourhood\, but coming from distinct worlds of class and lived experience — reveals the necessity for Indigenous people to look out for each other in a society that’s too often indifferent to their existence. \nTrailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8l3WC4wl-SY \nHere are our Covid 19 Protocols for all Sunset Theatre events. \n• If you are unwell stay home – even if those symptoms are not Covid 19 related\n• Seating capacity is limited to @ 20 to 28 patrons depending on Pod sizes\n• For everyone’s comfort & safety we thank you in advance for wearing a mask\n• We provide masks at the sign in table if you don’t have your own\n• 1 person per party must sign in w/ contact info.

SUMMARY:Film Screening: The World is Bright
DESCRIPTION:When an elderly Chinese couple are notified by the Canadian government about their son Shi-Ming’s sudden death and burial on Canadian soil\, they embark on a decade-long investigation to uncover the truth behind his tumultuous life as a young immigrant in Canada. Skilfully employing a docu-thriller style and staying steadfastly committed to the story\, director Ying Wang follows the grieving parents for ten years as they navigate a new culture and a complex web of bureaucracy in search of answers. While tracing Shi-Ming’s footsteps through re-enactments and interviews with those closest to him\, Wang explores the intricate connection between parental expectations\, migration and mental health. A powerful testament to parental devotion\, The World is Bright takes a look at mental health within immigrant communities through the sensitive portrayal of two parents channeling their grief into hope. \n– Mariam Zaidi \nTrailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MzobfAm7CA8 \nHere are our Covid 19 Protocols for all Sunset Theatre events. \n• If you are unwell stay home – even if those symptoms are not Covid 19 related\n• Seating capacity is limited to @ 20 to 28 patrons depending on Pod sizes\n• For everyone’s comfort & safety we thank you in advance for wearing a mask\n• We provide masks at the sign in table if you don’t have your own\n• 1 person per party must sign in w/ contact info.

SUMMARY:FILM: Moonrise Kingdom
DESCRIPTION:Set on an island off the coast of New England in the summer of 1965\, Moonrise Kingdom tells the story of two twelve-year-olds who fall in love\, make a secret pact\, and run away together into the wilderness.

The cast also includes Tilda Swinton\, Jason Schwartzman\, and Jared Gilman and Kara Hayward as the boy and girl. \nRating:\nPG-13 (for sexual content and smoking) \nGenre:\nComedy \nDirected By:\nWes Anderson \nWritten By:\nWes Anderson\, Roman Coppola \nRuntime:\n94 minutes \nCritical Mass: Tomatometer – 93% Audience Score – 86% \n“There are many echoes of Anderson’s earlier films\, particularly Rushmore and Tenenbaums. He’s an unapologetic romantic and Moonrise Kingdom is a study in wish-fulfillment.” \n– Sandra Hall\, Sydney morning Herald”This is a beautiful ode to first love with Anderson’s trademark style. The writing is sharp and witty and the cinematography and set designs are extraordinary. Moonrise Kingdom looks like a Norman Rockwell painting come to life.” \n– Michael Compton\, Bowling Green Daily News

SUMMARY:Film: The Princess Bride
DESCRIPTION:“As you wish.” \n“Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya.\nYou killed my father; prepare to die!” \n“Inconceivable!” \nRotten Tomatoes Consensus: “A delightfully postmodern fairy tale\, The Princess Bride is a deft\, intelligent mix of swashbuckling\, romance\, and comedy that takes an age-old damsel-in-distress story and makes it fresh.” \nFun Fact 1: Wallace Shawn\, who plays Vizzini in the film\, also voices Rex for the Toy Story movies. A playwright and multi Obie Award-winner\, Shawn is also known for writing and starring in My Dinner with Andre. \nFun Fact 2: As a child\, Andre the Giant (not the same Andre from Dinner With™) used to receive rides to elementary school in his native France from existential playwright Samuel Beckett. \n[Thanks\, Wikipedia:] The Princess Bride is a 1987 American fantasy adventure comedy film directed and co-produced by Rob Reiner\, starring Cary Elwes\, Robin Wright\, Mandy Patinkin\, Chris Sarandon\, Wallace Shawn\, André the Giant\, and Christopher Guest. Adapted by William Goldman from his 1973 novel The Princess Bride\, it tells the story of a farmhand named Westley\, accompanied by companions befriended along the way\, who must rescue his true love Princess Buttercup from the odious Prince Humperdinck. \nRated PG • Running Time is 1 hour & 38 minutes \nTICKETS \nAdult: $8\nChildren 12 & under: $5 \nAll tickets payable at door. We accept credit/debit cards with tap feature for payments via Square.
