2013 Night of the Living Tribute Band Call – Out!!

It’s OFS’s annual Halloween Party, Saturday, October 26, 2013!  Any musicians looking to play this year’s event?Now is the time to think about which band you wanna bring to life for one night only! 

Here’s the fine print:  Your band cannot currently be in a “cover/tribute” band performing in venues (for example:  Hell’s Belles), and if your group is chosen you cannot play in more then one confirmed band for the show, we also try not to have duplicate the bands that have previously been done.

Submit two songs via email or cd (to the OFS offices:  416 Washington Street SE #208, 98501) Attention:  NOLTB Committee: audrey@olympiafilmsociety.org Deadline:  July 31st, 5:00pm.

Las Vegas: the city with everything your sinful heart desires. It’s a place where anything could happen, and anything does. Gambling, shows, games, rides, girls – whatever your pleasure, Sin City will provide. Best of all, what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. Or does it?

Show features:  COCO LECTRIC:  A classically trained dancer, actor, and vocalist, Coco Lectic graces stages all over the world. She’s a founding member of The Jigglewatts Burlesque Revue (Austin, TX), founder of the Austin Burlesque Alliance, co-producer of the Texas Burlesque Festival, creator and producer of the World Go-Go Championship, the Headmistress of The Austin Academy of Burlesque, AND she holds the #5 spot in the world in 21st Century Burlesque’s “Burlesque Top 50.”

PACO FISH:  Paco Fish thrives on duality. He’s a dynamic performer of spoken and physical comedy, burlesque, boylesque, stilt walking, clown, mime, and a variety of other mediums. Whether playing a freshwater turtle in forbidden saltwater love, a tramp with a deal with the devil, or the whole history of modern France, Paco dismantles assumptions and defies convention with humor and passion.

Friday, July 26 – OFS Presents…

Reefer Madness

Hosted by Olympia Comedy Cabal!

What is “Hecklevision”?  Text (FREE) your jokes & comments from your seat & they appear at the bottom of the film screen!

8:30 doors/9:00pm show

$6.50 OFS Members/ $9.50 General Admission tickets available at the box office night of show.

Dir.: Louis J. Gasnier / 1936 / US / 66 min / High Definition Digital

 

A staple in health classes in the 1930s and a perennial laugh-fest if you’ve had the luck to run across it showing on late night TV, Reefer Madness is the ultimate guide to the REAL dangers of that dreaded drug called marijuana. Give thanks that this film has the courage to warn us of the side effects that can result from smoking the “devil’s weed.” These include excessive laughter and crazy piano playing, which lead to loose morals, suicide attempts, and even MURDER. All of this lunacy is illustrated through the tale of an all-American teenaged boy named Billy, who just happens to fall in with the wrong crowd. An entertaining product of its time, this OFS showing of Reefer Madness is made even more fun by Hecklevision, an audience participation act  in which your texted comments will be displayed on the movie screen as the film plays, a la Mystery Science Theater but without the robots!
