SUMMARY:Potato Dreams of America
DESCRIPTION:Gesa Power House Theatre will present a screening of the independent film Potato Dreams of America on Wednesday\, September 28\, at 7:00PM. \nWes Hurley’s autobiographical dark comedy is about a young boy growing up in the collapsing USSR\, his courageous mail-order bride mother\, and their adventurous escape to Seattle in the 90s. Full of unexpected twists\, this film is an immigrant’s take on the American Dream and the power of cinema\, proving that life is often stranger than fiction. \n \nThe Cast: \n\nLea DeLaria\nDan Lauria\nJonathan Bennett\nRizo\nSophia Mitri Schloss\nSera Barbieri\nMarya Sea Kaminski\nTyler Bocock\nHersh Powers\n\nDirector Wes Hurley is Russian-born and raised\, now based in Seattle.

Hurley’s story and his work have been featured on BBC\, NPR\, The Atlantic\, Vice\, Out\, The Wrap\, Huffington Post\, The Advocate\, and Topic\, among others. \n“Wes Hurley mixes farce\, fantasy and autobiography in his outrageously fun and deeply affecting Potato Dreams of America.” –Jonathan Duffy\, producer of “Sorry to Bother You”\n“I love everything about this story.” –Whoopi Goldberg \nGeneral admission seating ($15 Adults\, $10 Students) are available online or by calling the box office at 509-529-6500. \nGesa Power House Theatre is currently operating at full capacity but will continue to follow the most recent guidance from state and county Departments of Health.
