Livestream Premiere:  The Man in the Bright Nightgown
Feb 5 @ 7:30 pm
Online w/ Asheville Community Theatre

Livestream Premiere * February 5, 2021 at 7:30 pm
Video on Demand * February 7-28, 2021

Earlier this fall, husband and wife team Michael and Brenda Lilly gathered up a few friends and co-workers to create a short film. With the permission of playwright Tom Huey, Brenda worked with director Joshua Russell to adapt The Man in the Bright Nightgown – which she had previously directed in 35below, and which had starred Michael – into a screenplay. And now we get to stream the premiere! PLUS – after the premiere, stick around for a behind the scenes look at how a one-person play was adapted to a three-person film!

Or, if you already have plans for Friday, February 5, you can watch the film as Video on Demand! It will be available for viewing February 7-28, 2021 (but you can go ahead and buy your ticket now!)

Tickets are $15.00 (plus taxes and fees) either way you choose to watch.
