Two Can't Miss FUN-raisers
(page 1 of 2)
First: We'd like to thank former Delaware Theatre Company artistic director Anne Marie Cammarato for her years of service to the community. She offered bold productions at the theater, and she will be missed.
Now on to the show. Theatre N will show “Bruce Springsteen's London Calling: Live in Hyde Park” June 11-12.
Set in London at the Hard Rock Calling Festival on June 28, 2009, this 172-minute film documents a live Springsteen gig, boasting an astonishing 27 tracks.
Because the flick was filmed in HD, you get that sensaround feeling, almost as if you’re bumping into one of thousands of screaming fans. Springsteen directed the E Street Band, but there were no set lists. The music happens organically, as all creative things should.
The set list spans from Sprintsteen's introspective “Born to Run” era to his “Working On a Dream” times. Springsteen does rare covers of The Clash's "London Calling," Jimmy Cliff's "Trapped," The Young Rascals' "Good Lovin'," and Eddie Floyd's "Raise Your Hand."
Here’s the best part. This concert is a fundraiser for Theatre N at Nemours. Springsteen, the cool dude that he is, allowed Theatre N (and all theaters under the Emerging Cinema’s umbrella) to show the flick without receiving any royalties.
Tickets are a tad higher than usual ($15), but worth it. Those extra few bucks will help to preserve our indie house.
Contact info: Theatre N Nemours is located at 11th & Tatnall, inside the Nemours Building in downtown Wilmington. Parking at the City Center Garage is $1 for theater patrons with a validated Theatre N ticket stub. Metered parking is free on week nights after 6 p.m., and all day on the weekends.
