The Sun Also Rises Interpetive Video Series: Vol. 2

Last week, we were thinking about how best to get you to come meet Elevator Repair Service (remember Gatz? yeah, that’s them) on Friday night. It’s the Live Arts Festival’s first Meet the Artist event of the summer. ERS will preview a scene from chapter 12 of their upcoming production of Ernest Hemingway’s The Sun Also Rises and talk about working with novels on stage. Afterwards, reception! With local beers and food from Cosmic Catering.

So, we’re rooting around the bowels of the internet, as we often do, and have for you a series of extra special videos: homemade trailers for The Sun Also Rises, we kid you not. To answer your question, getting paid to do this is, in fact, awesome.

TODAY’S INSTALLMENT: “Drive Everywhere”



Meet the Artist Event with Elevator Repair Service actors Ben Williams and Mike Iveson, and Director John Collins. Friday, June 18, 7:00 pm. Live Arts Studio at 919 N 5th Street in Northern Liberties. Free! But you MUST RSVP to robin@livearts-fringe.org. Otherwise, how do we know how much beer to get?
