Live at the Film Forum

Live at the Film Forum

September 2010-May 2011

For its second season, LIVE AT THE FILM FORUM continues to bring innovative new work to our audiences. This year, local artists present newly commissioned performances that take cinema off the screen and into live theatre, combining elements of cabaret, comedy, dance, theater, performance art and, of course, film.

Following the tradition established in the inaugural season, which featured multi-sensory performances by Paris Hurley, Amy O'Neal and Marya Sea Kaminski, this year's projects will also bridge disciplines, connect artists with audiences and integrate the temporary exhilaration of live theatre with the lasting qualities of film.

This year's lineup includes the pop-musical musings of The French Project, comfort-food choreography by the multi-talented Alice Gosti, sensory dance instrumentation from Ezra Dickenson and Paurl Walsh and a new statistical musical from the Film Forum's longtime poetic pals The Vis-A-Vis Society. The 2010-11 season promises to be fresh, exciting and, as always, a little daring.

Season Passes $40/Film Forum members, $50/General
(Choose from Thursday Opening Nights Package, Friday Nights Package or Saturday Closing Nights Package)

Individual Tickets $12/Film Forum members, $15/General

Dec 15 - Dec 17

Investigating the relationship among individuals and families with food, choreographer and food-lover Alice Gosti makes a beautiful multimedia feast for our senses, sitting at a table eating a large bowl of spaghetti rather than talking, eating rather than answering questions, stuffing her mouth instead of enjoying food and company.
