Royal Shakespeare Company’s Henry Iv Part 1 (2014)
September 12th: In preparation for the Gay Innocent Heartless production of HenryMania, watch the phenomenal filmed stage production of Shakespeare’s famous play. There’s no suplexing in this one, but it’s still probably pretty cool.
Yes, Madam
November 14th: A movie pick from Scratch’s fight club, Yes Madam (1985) is a fantastic hidden gem from the Hong Kong action film period. Featuring two pioneering female stunt women Cynthia Rothrock and Michelle Yeoh (yes, that one), with no wire work, this film combines great fights and great comedy. In Chinese with subtitles.
Local Playwright Series: Destiny’s Birthright
WHAT: The first of our local playwright readings, produced in conjunction with Good Egg, featuring a completely original script by local actor Isaac Ludington. Destiny’s Birthright is a play about the worst fanfiction ever written, and the woman who’s desperately trying to make sure nobody finds out she wrote it.
WHEN: November 21st @ 7pm at Scratch Studio
COST: $10 suggested donation
Twilight Zone Reading

WHEN: Saturday, December 12th @ 7pm
