Supper & Film Discussion Group
Open to all, these gatherings start with supper, followed by the film and then a discussion of its themes, characters and artistry.



 Brokeback Mountain – This sweeping epic explores the life of two young men, ranch hand and rodeo cowboy, who meet in the summer of 1963 and forge a life long connection. Complications and heartbreak as the years go by test their enduring power of love. Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal deliver emotionally charged performances in this “classic of our time”.

Brokeback Mountain at the Atlas

Next Thursday, Sept. 1, brings the final film, Ang Lee's 2005 adaptation of Annie Proulx's short story Brokeback Mountain. While unleashing a torrent of "I wish I could quit you" gay-cowboy jokes on a tittering nation,
all the jokes in the world were unable to lessen the impact of the final images of lost love and loneliness. And yet as much as Brokeback Mountain was about the love of two men,
it was about the destruction that the closet wreaks on everyone it touches -- gay and straight.


Atlas Performing Arts Center, 1333 H St. NE, Washington D.C.

Tickets are free, except for a $2 booking fee. Call 202-399-7993 or visit atlasarts.org for a full schedule.

Brokeback Mountain - Eine Lesung mit Tilla Kratochwil und Masha Qrella

Wer kennt sie nicht die scheinbar alltäglichen Orte, die durch die Liebe geweiht werden. Der Brokeback Mountain wird im Sommer 1961 zu so einem Ort für die beiden Cowboys Jack und Ennis, die dort oben in der Wildnis einen Sommer lang Schafe hüten und dabei ihre „lebenslängliche“ Leidenschaft füreinander entdecken.

Tilla Kratochwil als Ranch-Helfer Ennis erzählt und spielt. Masha Qrella als Rodeo-Cowboy Jack singt und spielt Gi...tarre. Ein Abend über zwei tragische Rebellen der Liebe.

Dass zwei Frauen diese Geschichte von amerikanischen Cowboys und der Liebe zwischen zwei Männern erzählen, ermöglicht eine Distanz. Sie lässt Raum, die stark von der Verfilmung geprägte Erzählung neu zu sehen. Dabei steht nicht so sehr der Tabubruch in einer stark heterosexuell geprägten Gesellschaft im Vordergrund, sondern die Frage, in wie weit man sich in seinem Leben einrichtet und genügsam und zufrieden ist – oder ob man große Wagnisse eingeht und sich traut, auch unkonventionellen Impulsen zu folgen. Text und Musik lassen beim Zuschauer eigene Bilder entstehen. Songzitate und Eigenkompositionen stellen die großen Fragen des Lebens neu. Ein unterhaltsamer Abend, der eine großartige Liebesgeschichte noch einmal erzählt.

im Rahmen der Nachtschicht Queer mit Queerparty mit DJane JayJay

Eine Gemeinschaftsveranstaltung mit dem Schauspielhaus des Theater Magdeburg.

Message from Gregory Hinton:

Dear Friends:
 
I have been selected to produce and direct Dustin Lance Black's marriage equality play "8" in Colorado and Montana.
 
Out West is a partner in the national release of "8" to seventeen communities and counting all over the United States.
 

8theplay.com

 

Associated Press

 
Out West is partnering with the Kennedy Center American College Theatre Festival in Ft. Collins to present "8" on Feb 17th and the Bozeman Library Foundation in Bozeman on September 29th. I am co-directing with Leigh Selting, Director of the Festival and Executive Director of the University of Wyoming Theatre & Dance Dept.
 
I will also be presenting a workshop at the festival bsaed on my Windy City Times article "Staging Oral LGBT History: Laramie, Beyond Brokeback & "8"" with an impromptu reading of Beyond Brokeback. 
 
Beyond Brokeback deserves to be elevated to the status of Laramie and "8" and the workshop will hopefully propel that fact.

We have a very talented young director, Todd Espeland, pulling Beyond Brokeback together for Las Vegas on February 11th.

On February 27th, for our first event at the Autry we are presenting Out West with Al Simpson.

Gonna be a busy month!

Good luck with it all, Gregory!
