Los Angeles Film Festival: “The Black List Live! A Staged Reading”

Interesting news from this year’s Los Angeles Film Festival. In addition to pre-screenings of How to Train Your Dragon 2 and 22 Jump Street, there is this:

A first time event taking place at the Festival this year is The Black List Live! A Staged Reading. The Festival is teaming up with The Black List to program a staged reading of an unproduced Black List script. Join us for this one night only reading of Stephany Folsom’s 1969: A Space Odyssey, or How Kubrick Learned to Stop Worrying and Land on the Moon about a White House public affairs assistant who convinces Stanley Kubrick to fake the moon landing, just in case something goes wrong during that one small step. The event will take place on June 14 at 7:00 pm at the Los Angeles Theater.

You may remember my interview with Stephany, which you can read here and that she recently landed a high profile writing gig for Warner Bros. Her Kubrick script, which made the Black List in 2013, is terrific, so this event promises to be a special one.

Good news for all you L.A.-based writers: I have 6 tickets to the event which I will be giving away free in a TBD contest within the next week or so. Stay tuned for that.

The event will take place on June 14 at 7:00 pm at the Los Angeles Theater.
