SMOKESCREEN: Community Arts Program
BARRYMORE
SATURDAY 13 MARCH | 4PM
Barrymore is a two-person play that represents actor John Barrymore as he comes to terms with his acting successes and the depredations of excess. Barrymore rents an old theatre to rehearse for a backer's audition to raise funds for a revival of his 1920 Broadway hit Richard III. This attempted revival however, never took place, but acts as a dramatic theatrical devise for an actor to reminisce about his life and an acting career that saw him named in the 1920s as the “greatest living American tragedian”.
Starring: Christopher Plummer, John Plumpis
Written and directed by Eric Canuel
Ticket includes free drink at The Establishment Bar after the film.
