SUMMARY:Get Out Screening
DESCRIPTION:Screening of Get Out\, the Academy Award-winning 2017 horror film directed by Jordan Peele\, in the Crosstown Arts Theater. \nTickets: $5 (purchase on Eventbrite) \nGet a sneak peek of the new Crosstown Arts Theater in this first mic check event. We’re hosting a series of public mic checks to test the sound for film\, live music\, public speaking\, and live theater\, and the first one will feature this special Halloween-themed film screening. \nAbout Get Out:\nNow that Chris (Daniel Kaluuya) and his girlfriend\, Rose (Allison Williams)\, have reached the meet-the-parents milestone of dating\, she invites him for a weekend getaway upstate with Missy and Dean. At first\, Chris reads the family’s overly accommodating behavior as nervous attempts to deal with their daughter’s interracial relationship\, but as the weekend progresses\, a series of increasingly disturbing discoveries lead him to a truth that he never could have imagined. \nFuture mic check dates:\nNov. 14\, 6 pm — Children’s Theater performance (free)\nNov. 16\, noon — Public speaking test (free)\nDec. 15\, 7 pm – Holiday Jazz Concert ($15 tickets)
