Friday Night Lights

10/12/12
6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Paramount Center
Bright Family Screening Room
Public $10, Members/Seniors $7.50, Students $5

ArtsEmerson: The World on Stage presents Friday Night Lights. While it eventually found success as a beloved television series, the original film was based on H.G. Bissinger's memoir. In the economically depressed town of Odessa, Texas, there's little to look forward to except Friday night high school football games. When the star suffers a debilitating injury, hope seems lost until Coach Gary Gaines (played by Billie Bob Thornton) rallies the team to overcome their setbacks and depend on each other in order to make it to the state championships.

Hamlet

Paramount Center
Paramount Center Mainstage
See artsemerson.org for ticket pricing information

 ArtsEmerson: The World On Stage presents Hamlet. From Shakespeare's Globe Theatre in London, a handful of players perform this timeless classic. Hamlet explores political intrigue and sexual obsession, philosophical reflection ("to be, or not to be…") and violent action, tragic depth and wild humor. Capturing the youthful and less jaded aspects of Hamlet's personality rarely seen in more traditional interpretations, in just two and a half hours, this production embraces the theatre of Shakespeare's day. Actors play multiple characters and live music, infusing the performance with a lively energy. Humorous and boisterous, the Globe Company packs an emotional wallop with their inherent theatricality.

Mystic River

10/12/12
9:00 pm - 11:15 pm
Paramount Center
Bright Family Screening Room
Public: $10, Members & Seniors: $7.50, Students $5

ArtsEmerson: The World on Stage presents Mystic River. Nominated for a vast numbers of awards, both Sean Penn and Tim Robbins won Oscars for their performances as the father of a murdered teenage girl and her suspected killer. Although the production company wanted the movie to be shot in Canada, director Clint Eastwood insisted on making the film in Boston, the original setting of Dennis Lehane's gripping thriller about three childhood friends whose lives once again intersect through tragedy. Rolling Stone praised Eastwood's film as unforgettable: "You can't shake it. It's that haunting, that hypnotic."
