Press Release: Power House Movie screening of “All Sorts” – March 30

Gesa Power House Theatre presents a Power House Movie screening of the independent feature film All Sorts on Wednesday, March 30 at 7:00 pm. Director J. Rick Castañeda will be in attendance for a live Q&A following the screening.

All Sorts, a movie about a lonely data entry clerk who stumbles into the world of championship folder filing, is a quirky comedy about finding magic in everyday life. The main character, Diego, played by Eli Vargas (Arrested Development), is desperate to find a job, excitement, and even love. New on the job at a strange company, Diego stumbles into an incredibly fast filer named June, played by Greena Park (The Comedown), and the two journey through a wildly unexpected office adventure.

“When I moved to Los Angeles to break into the film industry, I worked a lot of mundane office jobs,” says director J. Rick Castañeda (Cement Suitcase). “I found lots of time to imagine magical escape routes out of the grey cubicles where I was trapped every day. I really wanted to add a little magic to this otherwise dreary landscape.”

Filmed almost entirely in Toppenish, WA and Yakima, WA, this surreal workplace comedy premiered digitally at the Seattle International Film Festival (SIFF) in 2021.

The Power House Movie Series showcases award-winning festival favorites, feature-length narratives, documentaries, and undiscovered gems, paired with exclusive content from the movie makers themselves – most often in conversation with Gesa Power House Theatre Director of Film Programming, Warren Etheredge.

Reserved seating tickets ($15 adult, $10 students) are available online at www.phtww.org or by calling the box office at 509-529-6500. Gesa Power House Theatre is located at 111 N. 6th Avenue in downtown Walla Walla.

About Gesa Power House Theatre

The historic Gesa Power House Theatre is a 300-seat performing arts venue, located in downtown Walla Walla. The 120-year-old building was once the Walla Walla Gas Plant, built to produce coal gas used to light the streets, businesses, and homes of Walla Walla. In 2011 the Gesa Power House Theatre building was transformed into a state-of-the-art playhouse for live performance. The interior design of the theatre was inspired by Shakespeare’s own intimate Blackfriars Theatre in London, England.

The Gesa Power House Theatre is on the Washington State Building Preservation Commission list of State historic buildings and on the National Register of Historic Places. The venue also hosts a variety of other cultural events, musical concerts, and private events (including weddings).

Gesa Power House Theatre is owned and operated by Power House Theatre Walla Walla, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.
