Bathtubs Over Broadway
Mary D. Fisher Theatre Sat, Feb 23, 2019 10:00 AM
When he started as a comedy writer for the Late Show with David Letterman, Steve Young had few interests outside of his day job. But while gathering material for a segment on the show, Steve stumbled onto a few vintage record albums that would change his life forever. Bizarre cast recordings — marked “internal use only” — revealed full-throated Broadway-style musical shows about some of the most recognizable corporations in America: General Electric, McDonald’s, Ford, DuPont, Xerox. Steve didn’t know much about musical theater, but these recordings delighted him in a way that nothing ever had. "Bathtubs Over Broadway" follows Steve on his quest to find all he can about this hidden world. While tracking down rare albums, unseen footage, composers and performers, Steve forms unlikely friendships and discovers that this discarded musical genre starring tractors and bathtubs was bigger than Broadway.

Elephant Path
Harkins Sedona 6 - Theatre 6 Thu, Feb 28, 2019 7:20 PM
With unprecedented footage, "Elephant Path" captures the beauty and behavior of the rare and elusive Forest Elephants. Our guides on this journey are Sessely Bernard, a tracker and elder of the Bayaka people, and Andrea Turkalo, an American field biologist. In a remote clearing in the rainforest of the Central African Republic (CAR) called Dzanga Bai, the elephants gather to bathe in the mud and drink the mineral-rich water. Andrea’s presence at the clearing and her close relationship with Sessely have been important factors in keeping poaching to a minimum at Dzanga Bai. Each day Andrea and Sessely sit side by side on the wooden observation platform talking quietly and recording the behavior of the elephants. Moses has a scar. Anatol has rips in his ears. Brice likes to charge. There is Romana, Ezra, Izzy and Madonna. For decades Andrea and Sessely have watched the elephants bathe and play and grow. They’ve seen newborns coaxed along, youths tussle, and young bulls learn to be males

Description

From executive producer Sir Richard Branson, "Sides of a Horn" is the first film to tell the story of South Africa's poaching war from both sides of the fence. Based on actual events, and filmed in the townships and game reserves most directly impacted by wildlife crime, this dramatic short film paints an unbiased portrait of a modern war that is tearing apart communities and driving a pre-historic species to the verge of extinction.
