FEEL IT ALL

A Drew Petersen Film

Bozeman, join us for the Montana premiere of Feel It All and a conversation on mental health in the mountains with professional skier, director, and public speaker Drew Petersen.

Feel It All chronicles professional skier Drew Petersen’s journey from the depths of suicidal depression to the resilience and strength found in running—and skiing the peaks surrounding—the Leadville Trail 100 ultramarathon.

Wednesday, September 4

Doors @ 6:30

Show @ 7:00

Film screening to be followed by a keynote talk from Drew titled “My Story is The Story of Our Community: How my lessons from skiing remote peaks and running ultramarathons can shift the culture of the mental health crisis of the Rocky Mountain West.”

This event is supported by Suffer Out Loud, Charlie Health, and Bozeman Health

Talent Call for Holiday Noir

Looking for the brazen, the talented, the performers with moxie who want to participate in the most tastefully scandalous holiday show in Bozeman! Last year, we filled our theater two nights in a row and entertained exuberant crowds with performances that made even Rudolph’s nose blush. This year is guaranteed to surprise and delight, and we want to welcome you to join the fun as a participant in the Emerson’s 2024 Holiday Noir.

We will be holding auditions September 24, 25, and 26 (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday). Auditions will run every 10 minutes with performers having 3 minutes to show their act. The show dates are December 6 & 7. Please fill out the Google Form below to snag an audition slot

Acts should be holiday-themed, lean into the saucy/adults-only nature of Holiday Noir, embrace humor, and most of all, be entertaining. Limit audition to 3 minutes, and please note that all acts are subject to edits by our production team. 

All types of performance artists are encouraged to audition! Bring the fire (not literally, please) and bring the fun. Looking forward to seeing what you’ve got!

Searching for:

Burlesque acts with a witty holiday spin

Provocative Magician

Drummers, specifically for a drum line

Advanced Juggler

Dancers

Any other circus-type acts that are in-line with the overall feel of the show

LAST WEEK TO VIEW CURRENT EXHIBITS

Chase DeForest,

Out West

Jessie Wilber Gallery

Chase DeForest creates collaged and stitched leather artworks broadly exploring themes surrounding cattle, horses, landscapes, and the American West. She uses hides as a conceptual jumping off point for her subject matter. The artwork celebrates the history and many compelling properties of leather: supple, durable, flexible and fun. 

Chase has an MFA from the Rhode Island School of Design and presently resides in Livingston, Montana.

Leah Cupino,

Geo-Erratic Behavior

Weaver Room Gallery

Leah Cupino once lived on top of a volcano and a score of other locations in her life, but now resides in Helena, Montana.

Her 20-year career’s worth of paintings include loose landscapes and topographical glacier abstractions and now includes a focus on the boulders within them.

Her subjects are united by her fascination with grand scales of time, as she colorfully weaves concepts of place, ownership and what it means to simply be a part of this earth.

Yuki Coyle,

Hit the Road

Lobby Gallery

Yuki Coyle is a visual artist currently living in Bozeman, Montana. She enjoys many artistic mediums especially painting, illustration, and ceramics. In her free time, you can find Yuki hiking, traveling, or baking.

Yuki is originally from Fargo, North Dakota and she finds much of her inspiration from her home community, and the places she encounters in her travels from there.
