"Outrage", exclusively at Harkins Valley
Art Theatre |

July 3rd |

Academy Award nominated
filmmaker Kirby Dick (This Film Is Not Yet
Rated) delivers a searing indictment of the
hypocrisy of closeted politicians who
actively campaign against the LGBT community
they covertly belong to. OUTRAGE boldly
reveals the hidden lives of some of our
nation’s most powerful policymakers, details
the harm they've inflicted on millions of
Americans, and examines the media's
complicity in keeping their secrets. |

Playhouse on the Park present "bare" |
July 16th - Aug. 9th |
|
A contemporary new musical
that tells the story of a group of students
at a Catholic boarding school struggling to
find their own voices in a modern world that
both embraces and isolates them. These
teenagers confront coming of age, coming
out, and coming to terms with the often
contradictory but always high expectations
of parents, peers, and the Church.
