    Acclaimed play from the U.K. debuts on big screen at Mary D. Fisher Theatre

    logo_SIFFSedona AZ (January 29, 2013) – The National Theatre of London returns to Sedona on Monday, Feb. 4 when the Sedona International Film Festival hosts the big screen premiere of the acclaimed British stage production “The Magistrate”. There will be two shows: 4:00 and 7:00 p.m. at the festival’s Mary D. Fisher Theatre.

    Academy Award nominee and Tony Award-winner John Lithgow (Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, Shrek, 3rd Rock from the Sun) takes the title role in Arthur Wing Pinero’s uproarious Victorian farce, directed by Olivier Award-winner Timothy Sheader (Crazy for You and Into the Woods, Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre, London).

    20130129_Magistrate1In a similar vein to the National Theatre’s smash-hit classic comedies — She Stoops to Conquer and London Assurance — “The Magistrate” is sure to have audiences doubled up with laughter. When amiable magistrate Posket (John Lithgow) marries Agatha (Olivier Award-winner Nancy Carroll, After the Dance), little does he realize she’s dropped five years from her age – and her son’s. When her deception looks set to be revealed, it sparks a series of hilarious indignities and outrageous mishaps.

    Critics are raving about “The Magistrate”, which garnered highest 4-star reviews from every major newspaper and magazine in London, including Daily Mail, Evening Standard, The Times, Time Out, Sunday Express. It is playing to sold-out audiences for its entire run at the National Theatre.

    “John Lithgow is priceless.” — The Times

    Sedona Gift Shop

    “A comedy treat that’s as crisp, ripe and funny as One Man, Two Guvnors.” — Sunday Express

    “Joshua McGuire is excellent, full of wicked glee.” — Time Out.

    “John Lithgow’s long-legged Posket is wonderfully funny.” — Independent on Sunday

    “John Lithgow is excellent…while Nancy Carroll dazzles as his spirited wife.” — Metro

    “The Magistrate” will be shown at the Mary D. Fisher Theatre on one day only: Monday, Feb. 4 at 4:00 and 7:00 p.m. Tickets are $15, or $12.50 for Film Festival members. Tickets are available in advance at the Sedona International Film Festival office or by calling 282-1177. Both the theatre and film festival office are located at 2030 W. Hwy. 89A, in West Sedona.

    I was talking to the Sedona.biz publisher/editor the other day, Tommy Acosta, and learned that our common friend Fernando Rivera of North Carolina passed away. It was reported that life and time caught him and then overcame him, and his heart quietly and suddenly failed.
