    Fisher Theatre brings Tony Award-nominated Broadway production to big screen

    Sedona Internatonal Film FestivalSedona AZ (November 8, 2019) – The Sedona International Film Festival is proud to present a one-night only theatrical event on screen: Broadway’s “A Night with Janis Joplin” on Thursday, Nov. 14 at 4 and 7 p.m. at the Mary D. Fisher Theatre.

    From Broadway to the cinema screen, you’re invited to share an evening with the woman and her musical influences in the Tony Award-nominated Broadway musical sensation, “A Night with Janis Joplin” starring Mary Bridget Davies.

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone.
