Birnbaum Reminder, Oct. 28, Sunrise Theater

A KIND REMINDER! ... 7:00 Wed, October 28th--Sunrise Theater

CHARLES BIRNBAUM
Founder and President, The Cultural Landscape Foundation
Introduction by Lawrence Earley, author of "Looking for Longleaf: The Fall and Rise of an American Forest"

From the v-shaped cuts etched in longleaf pines by former slaves and their descendants, to the development of James Boyd's Weymouth estate, we have shaped nature in a way that marks us as a community.

Recognized for his ground-breaking achievements in preserving endangered landscapes throughout the United States, Mr. Birbaum will turn his attention to the Sandhills in celebration of the natural and man-made beauty that defines the singular character of the Southern Pines landscape.

FREE ADMISSION

This event is presented by The Classical Design Foundation in association with: The North Carolina Chapter of The Nature Conservancy, Preservation North Carolina, The Sandhills Council of Garden Clubs, Sandhills Natural History Society, The Southern Pines Garden Club and Sustainable Sandhills

Fresh at the Sunrise, Thurs, Fri.

A quick reminder, the solution-oriented food movie "Fresh" is playing today (Thursday) and Friday evenings at the Sunrise theater. 7:30PM.

The Sunrise was kind enough to take a risk back in August, even if documentaries "hadn't done well" before. Make a point to return the support. It's our community theater, and brings us films we wouldn't see otherwise.

Reminder, Food, Inc. and Fresh, Oct. 20-23, Sunrise Theater

The movie "Food, Inc" is returning to the Sunrise Theater in October.
Pairing up with it is a brand new solution- and action-oriented food movie called "Fresh".

After two sell-out nights in August for the documentary "Food, Inc," the Sunrise Theater is bringing it back.

Yes, the important and much-talked-about "FOOD, INC" will make its return engagement Tues-Wed, Oct 20-21. If you didn't get to see, now is your chance, and bring a friend. If you have seen it, tell a friend.

Hard on the heels of "Food, Inc", comes another food film. The Sunrise has also booked the new movie "Fresh" for Thur-Fri, Oct 22-23 .

It's been said that if "Food, Inc" was your wake-up call, "Fresh" is a look at some of our options.

"Fresh" (see: www.freshthemovie.com).
is confirmed for Thur-Fri, Oct 22-23 on the heels of "Food Inc."

Food, Inc. AND Fresh, Flicks at Sunrise!

[from Jan's Cottage Garden Newsletter]

After two sell-out nights in August for the documentary "Food, Inc," the Sunrise Theater is bringing it back next month.

Yes, the important and much-talked-about "FOOD, INC" will make its return engagement Tues-Wed, Oct 20-21. If you didn't get to see, now is your chance, and bring a friend. If you have seen it, tell a friend.

Hard on the heels of "Food, Inc", comes another food film. The Sunrise has also booked the new movie "Fresh" for Thur-Fri, Oct 22-23 .

It's been said that if "Food, Inc" was your wake-up call, "Fresh" is a look at some of our options.

Featured in the film is more of the ever-engaging Joel Salatin, plus McAurthur Genius Grant award-winner Will Allen of Milwaukee's innovative "Growing Power".
I had a chance to meet Will this June, and tour the simple community-engaged systems of "Growing Power" with my mad-scientist brother. The "urban farm" produces local food year-round in Milwaukee, Wisconsin! Lake perch from aquaculture, and fresh greens, are the year-round stars. Worm compost is the fertilizer.

Anyway "Fresh" (see: www.freshthemovie.com).
is confirmed for Thur-Fri, Oct 22-23 on the heels of "Food Inc."

And bring a friend!

Oops, No Monday Night Movie

Correction. We got ahead of ourselves by posting Food, Inc. for Monday. So far as we know now, Food, Inc. will NOT be showing tomorrow evening.

8/15/2009

Food, Inc. Held Over for Monday!

Unbelievable! The movie, Food, Inc, sold out both nights!
No documentary previously had sold out at the Sunrise. AND they are holding it over one more night... Monday, August 17 at 7:30 pm. Same price... $7.
So far as we know, there will be no panel discussion afterward, but you will still get a program filled with info you can use to increase your access to healthful foods and help us make changes by simply doing what we do... shop! WE HAVE THE POWER... the power of our dollars! Farmers have promised that the more "REAL" food we demand from them, the more they will produce.
So if you didn't get a chance to attend Thursday or Friday... or know someone who missed Food, Inc., let them know we're on for Monday!

8/13/2009

Yes! We're on!

Today's Sunrise Theater's grand opening of Food, Inc. happens, rain or no rain. Venders, booths will be set up on the green beside the theater. Hey, nobody's every melted in the rain!

Reminder, Aug 13, 14, Sunrise Theater

"Food, Inc. " will be screened on Thursday and Friday evenings, August 13 & 14 at the Sunrise Theater in Southern Pines. A big party on the green next to the theater precedes it. Please bring a friend and an appetite.

The community has coalesced around this special showing by the Sunrise Theater in a manner both surprising, inspiring and delightful. We're becoming a "foodie" community, neighbors. And the screening and panel last weekend in Fayetteville was a hit. Congratulations to Fayetteville!

This week's screenings should in Southern Pines be even more of a hit, as we're throwing a big party to go along with it.

Both screenings will be followed by a panel, community discussion and Q&A in the theater with local food and community advocates. Tickets for the film go on sale 30 minutes before showtime (possibly earlier this night - stay tuned for details) and are $5 for children under 12, and $7 for adults. For more information call theSunrise box office at 910-692-3611.

On Thursday only, August 13, opening day.... we kick it off with

"The Moore the Merrier"
A Celebration of Local Food


From 5pm ­ 7:30pm on Thursday, August 13, come enjoy local food, wine, beer, music and more at The Moore the Merrier...

Thanks to the enthusiastic efforts of local foodie Mariah Fong, we can come to a celebration and sample local foods prepared by local chefs on the Sunrise Theater green. Visit with farmers, local craftsfolk and shopkeepers and beekeepers.

Some of the vendors/participants include: Ashten's, Chef Warren's, La Poblanita, 195, Rhett's, White Rabbit Catering, Wolcott's, Sharron Scott - Raw Chef, Moore County Farmers Market, Griffin Family Farm, Half-Acre Farm, Toole, Family Apiary, Full Circle Farm, Raven's Wing Natural Healing, Fancy Faces 4 U, Santi Yoga Studio, Java Bean Plantation and Roasting Company, Foxy Biscotti, April Fool's ...and many many more!

Come hungry, as also this local food celebration benefits the Sandhills/Moore Coalition for Human Care, a United Way agency. (In fact, make it an afternnoon and come watch the benefit Tricycle Races before the Food Fest.) Then hustle on into the Sunrise to enjoy Food, Inc. at 7:30pm

Again,

Marx is Back!

MARX IN SOHO PRESENTED AT SUNRISE THEATER!

For one day only, Karl Marx will come back to life on the Sunrise Theater stage in play Marx in Soho. The show will be presented on Sunday, October 14, 2007 at 2:30 and 7:00 p.m. Tickets will be at $15 at the door, $12 in advance, $5 for students. Advance tickets may be purchased at Campbell House (482 E. Connecticut Ave., Southern Pines) and Nature’s Own (195 Bell Ave., Southern Pines). Proceeds from the show will benefit the Arts Council of Moore County’s Barnes-Travis Arts Scholarship for middle and high school students.

Marx in Soho is a one person play, written by renowned people’s historian Howard Zinn. In it, Marx comes back to life to address a contemporary audience in this funny and insightful “play on history.” Marx has agitated with the authorities of the afterlife for a chance to clear his name. Through a bureaucratic error, however, Marx is sent to Soho in New York, rather than his old stomping ground in London, to make his case.

Zinn introduces us to Marx's wife, Jenny, his children, the anarchist Mikhail Bakunin, and a host of other characters. Marx in Soho is a brilliant introduction to Marx's life, his analysis for society, and his passion for radical change — and the relevance of Marx's ideas for today.

Winner of the 2000 Independent Publisher Award for best visionary fiction, Marx in Soho combines hard-hitting information with humor, sharp politics and sheer delight. This performance is directed by Marcela Casals and produced and performed by Fenton Wilkinson of Whispering Pines.

For additional information on Marx in Soho, please contact the Arts Council of Moore County at 910-692-4356.
