Ridgefield Playhouse Weekend Round Up! Fri 2/10 – Sun 2/12

It’s time for THE RIDGEFIELD PLAYHOUSE: WEEKEND ROUND UP!

 

TONIGHT! Fri, Feb 10 at 6:30pm, it’s a screening of Long Strange Trip. The tale of the Grateful Dead is inspiring, complicated, and downright messy. A tribe of contrarians, they made art out of open-ended chaos and inadvertently achieved success on their own terms. Previously unreleased footage and interviews offer this unprecedented and unvarnished look at the life of the Dead. Run time is 3 hours 59 minutes and there will be an intermission. Part of the Cohen & Wolf P.C. Movie Series.
