Free screening of the movie Bag It

Tamworth Library, 1 Ottawa Street, Tamworth

Bag It has been garnering awards at film festivals across the nation. In this touching and often flat-out-funny film, we follow "everyman" Jeb Berrier, as he embarks on a global tour to unravel the complexities and dangers of plastic. We see how our crazy-for-plastic world has finally caught up to us and what we can do about it. http://www.bagitmovie.com/

Plus, a discussion of Local Shopping Bags - an initiative to create Tamworth brand cloth bags. We'll be serving popcorn, cider & juice. Please Bring Your Own Bowl and Cup - so we avoid disposable plastic!

Lennox Community Theatre, 2219 County Road 11, Selby

Drama. By Richard Linley, with assistance from David Smith and Brandt Zätterberg. Directed by Richard Linley. Produced to commemorate the bicentennial of the War of 1812.

In November 1812, an American naval squadron set sail on Lake Ontario from Sackett's Harbor, New York, determined to intercept the Royal Navy corvette Royal George off the coast of Prince Edward County. During the ensuing chase, the Americans landed a vessel at Ernesttown (modern day Bath), and burned a merchant vessel there to the waterline. Royal George eventually escaped to Kingston with the Americans in hot pursuit. In this fictional account, a young American sailor is knocked overboard at Ernesttown, and finds his way to a modest nearby dwelling. The population has been evacuated, largely, but a few have stayed behind for various reasons, and one of these is the young woman, daughter of a United Empire Loyalist, who lives in the house where the American has taken shelter. Frightened and alone, he reluctantly takes her hostage, but he is more the prisoner than she, for he is marooned in enemy territory, with few prospects for a successful escape. By arrangement with AVABANANA.

Unless otherwise noted, evening performances begin at 8:00pm, and matinée performances, marked '(m)', begin at 2:00pm. '(m/e)' indicates both matinée and evening performances. For more information and to confirm show times, please visit www.lennoxtheatre.ca.
