Press Release: “RBG” documentary film – June 8 & June 13

Gesa Power House Theatre presents the new documentary film RBG on Friday, June 8 at 7:00 p.m. and again on Wednesday, June 13 at 7:00 p.m.

At the age of 85, US Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has developed a lengthy legal legacy while becoming an unexpected pop culture icon. But without a definitive biography, the unique personal journey of her rise to the nation’s highest court has been largely unknown, even to some of her biggest fans – until now.

RBG is a revelatory documentary exploring Ginsburg ‘s exceptional life and career. From Betsy West and Julie Cohen, and co-produced by Storyville Films and CNN Films.

This film has a runtime of 97 minutes. Beer, wine, popcorn, and snacks will be available for purchase, and may be taken into the theater. Outside food and beverages are not allowed.

Reserved seating tickets go on sale to the public on Wednesday, May 16, online (www.phtww.org) or by calling the box office at 509-529-6500. Adult tickets are $15 in advance, $20 at the door. Student tickets are $10 in advance, $15 at the door.

About the 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).
