Tribute
Join us for a very special onstage tribute and conversation with actor Jenny Slate, in which she will go in-depth on her work and career.
Screening
The conversation will be followed by a screening of Slate's upcoming film Marcel the Shell with Shoes On directed by Dean Fleischer-Camp.
Poignant and laugh-out-loud funny, this feature expansion of the beloved web series features the titular mollusk (voiced by Jenny Slate) looking after his Nana Connie (Isabella Rossellini) and ruminating on his home life and missing family. Filmed by a mostly off-camera director (the film's real-life director Dean Fleischer-Camp), Marcel discusses his garden, musical tastes, and various hobbies, and both are shocked when the resulting videos go viral online. When Lesley Stahl from 60 Minutes wants to do a story on Marcel, our young hero worries to his Nana, "What if everything changes?" A comic delight from start to finish, the film also tweaks foibles of modern life from livestreaming to tattoo parlors.
Recommended for ages 9 and up.
