Everyone is excited about Spike Jonze’s translation of Maurice Sendak’s “Where the Wild Things Are” to film. We are in the process of designing a “photo cube” for children to have fun with, having their pictures taken as characters from the book. But we also discovered this great blog describing the inner workings of the film from a creative point of view. The film is scheduled to arrive at Images in mid-October and we will have a display of the original storybook on display in the front lobby. Check this out : http://weloveyouso.com/
Campanile wraps up “What is Written….”
February 19, 2009 at 6:51 pm (Community, Theater)
Be sure to catch the last theatre/lecture performance in Robert Campanile’s “What is Written is Written: From Stone to Stage” this Friday night at the Milne Library. Curtain time is 7 p.m. Campanile’s clever and informative mixture of lecture, slide, and theatrical presentations about language have entertained audiences since September and Friday night’s “Meeting of the Minds” will bring the series full circle into a delightful conclusion.
We look forward to more from Robert in the Spring or Fall but if you need to see more of his artful presentations check out the Western Gateway Heritage Park in North Adams where he recently became the Supervisor of Forests and Parks.
Goodbye
