IN PURSUIT OF SILENCE - Encore

Sunday, April 10, 2016, 2:45 PM — 7 Stages Theatre

As much a work of devotion as it is a documentary, “In Pursuit of Silence” is a meditative exploration of our relationship with silence and the impact of noise on our lives. In our race towards modernity, amidst all the technological innovation and the rapid growth of our cities, silence is now quickly passing into legend. From causing aggressive behavior to hundreds of thousands of heart attacks around the world, there is no aspect of human life that noise does not infringe upon. Silence as a resource for respite and renewal from the sensory onslaught of our modern lives is now more important than ever before.


COTTON Shorts Block - Encore

FRANKENSTEIN CREATED BIKERS - Encore

Sunday, April 10, 2016, 7:30 PM — 7 Stages Theatre

THE ARBALEST - Encore

Sunday, April 10, 2016, 7:45 PM — Plaza Theatre, Upstairs
