The Inner Voice Studios present 35mm: A Musical Exhibition
|
July 1 & 2 @ 7pm
The Inner Voice Studio presents the musical 35mm: A Musical Exhibition, a collision of musical theatre, photography, and pop/rock music. 35mm pushes the limits of self-expression to create an art form utterly its own. A collection of ‘snapshot stories’ are woven together as each of the evening’s original songs is performed while the audience is immersed in stunning projections of the photography that inspired it with a live band. 35mm brings the connection between pleasures visual and aural into razor-sharp focus, creating a singular, multi-sensory emotional journey. Tickets are cash at door $20 ($10 for students). Shows are July 1st and 2nd at 7pm. Email theinnervoicestudio@gmail.com or call 520-372-5475 for more info. |
