The Acadmy Museum presents the Film Series Beware the Elements! Natural Disasters on Film

Following a summer of record-breaking heatwaves, extreme wildfires, historic floods, and a truly unprecedented “hurriquake,” we find the perilous realities of climate change increasingly impacting our daily lives. This screening series considers natural disasters through our planet’s primary elements—earth, wind, water, and fire—and seeks to highlight key moments in the history of the disaster film genre as a source of entertainment and portrayal of science, and as a tool to raise our collective consciousness about science-based solutions to the mounting global climate crisis. Click the here to see the featured films selected for this series. The film series runs between January 4th to January 28, 2024.

Description

Join the conversation in this Q&A as part of Wendy’ s Peter Pan performance at the Will Geer Theatricum Botanicum. The 30-minute prologue Q&A begins at 6:30pm and the play performance begins at 7:30pm on Friday, July 26, 2024.

About Wendy’s Peter Pan:

J.M. Barrie’s beloved fairytale of a boy who never wanted to grow up was written one hundred and twenty years ago. Like the stories of Shakespeare, the adventures in Neverland are ingrained in the vocabulary and hearts of our culture. Ellen Geer’s pondering frames the original script through the eyes of Wendy and her children, encouraging the next generation to never lose the innocence of belief in other worlds and other ways.

FOR TICKETS, CLICK HERE!!

NOTE: Pay-what-you-will tickets will be made available online the week of the show and at the door through cash purchase the day of the performance.

Parking information:

  • $10 to park in the Theatricum lot. Parking fee waived for vehicles with disabled person placards.
