SUMMARY:David Nygaard presents Out on Film: Hedwig and The Angry Inch
DESCRIPTION:Hedwig and the Angry Inch is a 2001 American musical comedy-drama film written for the screen and directed by John Cameron Mitchell and based on Mitchell’s and Stephen Trask’s 1998 stage musical Hedwig and the Angry Inch.\n \nThe film tells the story of the “internationally ignored” rock singer Hedwig Robinson and her search for stardom and love as she tours the country with her band. The music is steeped in the androgynous 1970s glam rock style of David Bowie (who co-produced the Los Angeles production of the show)\, as well as the work of John Lennon and early punk performers Lou Reed and Iggy Pop.\n \nThe film won the Best Director and Audience Awards at the Sundance Film Festival as well as Best Directorial Debut from the National Board of Review\, the Gotham Awards\, and the Los Angeles Film Critics Association. Mitchell received a Golden Globe nomination for Best Actor – Motion Picture Musical or Comedy and the Premiere magazine Performance of the Year Award.\n——————————————————————————————-\nAbout Out on Film\, Presented by David Nygaard\nJoin the Virginia Queer Film Festival and our local theater partners for Out on Film. \nPresented by David Nygaard\, a year-round schedule of full length LGBTQ+ films.

SUMMARY:Proteus New Play Festival: The Lessons
DESCRIPTION:by Jennie Brown\nDirected by Patrick Mullins\, Asst. Director: Leila Stephanie \nCan truth prevail in the teaching of history to school children? Sixty-five years apart\, two Select Committees of the Virginia Textbook Commission face this question. In 1955\, a committee member challenges misinformation in a proposed Virginia history manuscript for elementary students. Fellow members are reluctant to stir up unrest in communities of color\, and with the state commission. In a 2020 meeting\, one member protests the racial equity embraced in a new manuscript of a middle-school text. The chair tries to protect the committee’s work while grappling with intimations of unrest and potential violence.\n——-\nThe Proteus New Plays Festival showcases community-driven staged readings of 4 scripts that have been developed in the Z Playwrights Lab or by Z Artist Members. The staged readings give the playwrights an opportunity to work with a director and a volunteer cast to see their script “on its feet” for the first time\, and add the most crucial element to developing a play\, The Audience! \n\nEach reading is presented twice during the 2 weeks of Proteus Festival. Audiences are given the opportunity to rate the plays via a survey focused on the elements writing an engaging script and story. Ratings are averaged to select the PNPF Audience Favorite. The Audience Favorite receives a workshop production 2-week run in November\, as the second Curtain Up! New Plays Series play of the 23-24 season.
