A Prairie Home Companion is coming back to the big screen, at a movie theater near you - Thursday October 21st! Everyone had such a great time this February, that we're having another live cinecast event. We'll beam a live high-definition video feed of a special Thursday night performance from the Fitzgerald Theater (via satellite) to movie theaters across North America at 7:00 PM (tape delayed). The Fresno cinecast will take place at the Edwards Cinema 21 at River Park. It's a regular Prairie Home show made for the big screen, featuring the boot-stompin', heart-breakin' songs of Old Crow Medicine Show, the sweet sounds of Nickel Creek's Sara Watkins, some smoldering honky-tonk from Joe Ely and soulful duets with singer-songwriter Andra Suchy. Also with us, The Royal Academy of Radio Actors; Sue Scott, Tim Russell, with both Tom Keith AND Fred Newman. Plus a The Guy's All-Star Shoe Band and The News from Lake Wobegon. Two hours of non-stop fun on the big screen. LIVE IN HD AGAIN! Cinecast - Thursday Oct 21st 7:00 PM - Edwards Theatre ENCORE Cinecast - Monday October 25th 7:00 PM - Edwards Theatre More info...
