Directed with “seriousness and opulence” (★★★★★The Mail) by Sir Kenneth Branagh and Rob Ashford\, Romeo and Juliet was the fifth play in the inaugural Plays at the Garrick season and was filmed for the big screen in beautiful black and white CinemaScope. Set in 1950s Italy\, this production stars Richard Madden (Game of Thrones) as Romeo and Lily James (Downton Abbey) as Juliet\, with Sir Derek Jacobi as Mercutio and Meera Syal as The Nurse. \nFilmed during a live event\, the Live Cinema Series broadcasts offer audiences an equivalent to the best seat in the house\, with incredibly detailed close-ups of the performers. The Live Cinema Series is supported by Shakespeare Walla Walla. \nThis screening has an approximate runtime of 3 hours. Beer\, wine\, popcorn\, and snacks will be available for purchase\, and may be taken into the theater. \nGeneral admission tickets ($15 adults\, $10 students) are available online or by calling the box office at 509-529-6500. \nWant to receive early notice and access to ticket sales?

The new documentary\, directed by Madeline Gunderson\, reveals the entrenchment of decades of political discrimination and holds up a mirror to the larger story of a changing United States. \nAlthough Yakima County’s population is about 50 percent Hispanic\, the county had had just one Latino county commissioner in its history. A 2020 lawsuit against Yakima County alleges that its at-large voting system dilutes the agency of Latinos\, in violation of the state Voting Rights Act. and pushes for ranked choice voting. \nGeneral admission tickets ($15 adults\, $10 students) are available online or by calling the box office at 509-529-6500.

Nearly a year later\, we are now able to be open for socially-distanced events and are delighted to share the highlights from 2020’s cancelled festival. Gesa Power House Theatre presents a special “Best of the 2020 Walla Walla Movie Crush” screening event on Saturday\, May 22. \n \nJust like the annual 3-day festival in July\, screenings will be arranged in one-hour thematic segments of short films as follows: \nBlock #1 (1PM-5PM): \n1PM: AFTER-ACTION REVIEW\npresented by Micki & Bryce Breitenstein \nPoliticians provide reasons for going to war\, historians discuss the geo-political impacts. Too few\, however\, are concerned or charged with evaluating what happens to the women and men who serve and to those who survive war. Here\, American veterans from multiple conflicts and Korean children recall what happened\, question why it did and wonder how to move forward healthfully. \n2PM: MORAL ACCOUNTING \nUltimately\, we may or may not be judged by a higher power\, but while we are alive\, it’s up to each of us to hold ourselves and others accountable\, spiritually as much as legally. Here\, war crimes\, acts of censorship\, xenophobic policies and climate crises are addressed by individuals eager to balance the books and pull us out of the moral red. \n3PM: PHONING IT IN \nWe all have our hang-ups\, but our attachment to our smartphones may be moving from habit to addiction. Can we live without them? Here\, New Yorkers and Californians\, siblings and spouses\, technophobes and influencers — heck\, even Green Day! —all try to put down their devices or be put down for them. \n4PM: BLACK LIVES & WHITE LIES \nDr. Martin Luther King\, Jr. said: “Three hundred years of humiliation\, abuse and deprivation cannot be expected to find voice in a whisper.” Thus\, a cry becomes a shout becomes a protest becomes a revolution. Those who shout\, eventually\, will be heard. Those who remain quiet\, ultimately\, will lose their voices. Here\, BIPOC women and men spill their stories\, while white folks whisper theirs… \nBlock #2 (7PM-10PM): \n7PM: ANGER MISMANAGEMENT \nDo men ever learn how to deal with their emotions properly? Evidence suggests that many men have no idea what do wither their feelings and certainly haven’t found enough outlets for their ire. Here\, scientists and students\, office workers and buskers\, an actor and an entrepreneur all release steam in less than healthy\, though sometimes humorous ways. \n8PM: AND THE BEAT GOES ON? \nIf music calms the savage breast\, what happens when it stops? If we fail to find our daily rhythms\, can there only be discord? Here\, a municipal school district\, a bickering couple\, an exiled punk\, a troubled drummer and a wary dreamer… face the music and the absence of it. \n9PM: INTIMACY COORDINATION \nIf you want to round the bases\, you’ve got to step into the batter’s box and learn to swing… the right way. Here\, an American gigolo\, a speed-dater\, a co-worker\, the cuckold\, bros\, sistahs\, neighbors and the common housefly learn how to get their game on before they get their groove on. \nGeneral admission tickets ($10 per block or $15 for a day pass) are available online or by calling the box office at 509-529-6500. \nSeating for each screening is capped at 100 patrons\, as allowed under Washington’s Safe Start Plan.

Twenty years later Mark has become a successful doctor and ladies’ man. Meanwhile Ben has devolved into obsessional recluse whose life is a series of obsessive habits. A piece of news forces Mark to reassess his life and\, in the process\, convinces him to play a bigger part in Ben’s\, risking everything in order to break Ben out of his shell. \nTogether the two rediscover their spirit of adventure: they sell everything they own on the high street\, they get into a fight with two policemen (and spend a night in jail)\, they lose all their money – only to win it back at the dog track. They pick up girls. They go sailing and\, as the horizon opens in front of their boat\, it feels as if the world is once again full of possibilities. But Mark has been keeping a secret and once Ben learns of it\, both friends are forced to face the deeper questions in their lives. \nRunning Naked is a story about friendship and about how\, in life\, we sometimes need to unbutton our shirt collars\, kick off our shoes\, and streak through life unabashed. The film is directed by Victor Buhler\, and stars Matthew McNulty\, Andrew Gower\, Rakhee Thakrar\, and Tamzin Merchant. \nGeneral admission seating ($15 Adults\, $10 Students) are available online or by calling the box office at 509-529-6500.

Like a moment from the chilling Handmaid’s Tale\, Tammy Loertscher’s fetus was given an attorney\, while the courts denied Tammy her constitutional rights. In this timely documentary\, we see her sent to jail\, and then forced to challenge a Wisconsin law that eroded her privacy\, her right to due process\, and her body sovereignty.

At the intersection of the erosion of women’s rights\, the war on drugs\, and mass incarceration\, Tammy’s experience reveals the dangerous consequences of these little-known laws for American women and families. \nPersonhood explores this urgent issue from all sides including the fetal personhood movement\, social justice advocates\, medical professionals and legal experts.
