The Best of the Playomatic: A Short Film Screening

  • Griffen Theatre - 7 Lynde Street - Salem
The Griffen Theatre at 7 Lynde Street in Salem presents The Best of the Playomatic: A Hilarious Short Film Screening on Friday, June 27th and Saturday, June 28th at 8 p.m.
 
There is a $20 suggested donation at the door as the evening is a benefit for the filmmaker and his family, who plan to move to Western Australia next January to work for Create International, a cutting-edge ministry organization in Perth that provides culturally relevant Christian video and web materials to different nationalities throughout the world.

Beverly-based filmmaker Steve Stuart has won several awards at Boston's 48 Hour Film Project for his zany shorts, filmed mostly in Beverly and Salem. The shorts feature North Shore actors and one pesky yard gnome that pops up in each of them. Featured short films include: America's Next Top Superhero, Opening Night Jitters, Sneaker Double Feature and the most recently shot Deadly Deja Vu.
 
According to the filmmaker, these 'strange, little films' represent his alter ego. Stuart's 2007 film Hope for Uganda screened this year at the first Salem Film Fest.

To reserve tickets, call (978) 825-0222. For more information on Baldwin's mission work, visit Baldwin's blog at baldwinboomerang.blogspot.com. For those who cannot attend, donations can be given through The Griffen Theatre at 7 Lynde Street, Salem, MA 01970.

These are not 'Christian films or documentaries,' they are short, comedies for general audiences. Most are family friendly, but some of the films contain some content of a more PG-13 nature. If you are concerned, let us know and we can allow you to preview what to expect at the event by sharing a short film with you online.
