What are you giving Dad for Father's Day? -- celebrate with laughs, live theater from London, or a newly released movie at the MV Film Center this coming week.
DAD & CONFUSED - Father’s Day Weekend Comedy! Don’t miss the premiere of Comedian Jim Colliton’s “Dad & Confused!” an evening of clean & side-splitting stand-up comedy hosted by Boston’s GARY MARINO. Colliton has been seen on Comedy Central, NBC, Fox, CBS and airs regularly on Siruis Satellite Radio. National headliner Colliton shares his hysterical stories about marriage, raising kids, and living in the suburbs with other annoying people.
NATIONAL THEATRE LIVE – HENRY V. Fresh to the throne, King Henry V (starring Kit Harington) launches England into a bloody war with France. When his campaign encounters resistance, this inexperienced new ruler must prove he is fit to guide a country into war. Captured live from the Donmar Warehouse in London, this exciting modern production directed by Max Webster (Life of Pi) explores what it means to be English and our relationship to Europe, asking: do we ever get the leaders we deserve?
10th annual FILMUSIC Film Festival begins Thursday June 23rd with a spirited musical film; THE REVEREND: THE MINISTER OF MUSIC with the Reverend Vince Anderson and filmmaker Nick Canfield appearing. Full music doc schedule online.
CONTINUING THIS WEEK, MORE SHOWS...
From award-winning creator Julian Fellowes comes the British costume drama DOWNTON ABBEY: A NEW ERA. The much-anticipated cinematic return of the global phenomenon reunites the beloved cast (Maggie Smith, Michelle Dockery, Elizabeth McGovern, and Hugh Bonneville to name a few) as they go on a grand journey to the South of France to uncover the mystery of the Dowager Countess' newly inherited villa.
"A New Era" serves up a proper cup of piping hot fan service that many fans will enjoy even more than the first Downton Abbey movie.
¡VIVA MAESTRO!, the uplifting and timely new film from acclaimed director Ted Braun, follows conductor Gustavo Dudamel around the world as he responds to unexpected and imposing obstacles with stirring music-making that celebrates the power of art to renew and unite people.
THE VELVET QUEEN — In the heart of the Tibetan highlands, multi-award-winning nature photographer Vincent Munier guides writer Sylvain Tesson on his quest to document the infamously elusive snow leopard. Munier introduces Tesson to the subtle art of waiting from a blind spot, tracking animals, and finding the patience to catch sight of this cat. Through their journey in the Tibetan peaks, inhabited by invisible presences, the two men ponder humankind's place amongst the magnificent creatures and glorious landscapes they encounter along the way.
