Rhode Island Premiere 41 The Movie
Time: 2pm
Tickets: $15.00
Tickets at the door
In the winter of 2003, a catastrophic fire erupted in a Rhode Island concert club, ultimately claiming 100 lives. For this state of just over a million residents, the devastation was profound, leaving unanswered questions and deep scars in its wake. But out of the ashes of the tragedy arose an equally profound story of hope. One year after the fire, a community theatre in the small city of Woonsocket gathered together to perform a play written by the fire’s youngest victim close to the end of his life – a play that many felt could only be described as prophetic. In turn heartwarming and heartbreaking, 41 tells the remarkable story of Nicky O’Neill, the young actor, writer and musician who left the world at age 18 but who left behind a message of deep spiritual importance that has already inspired thousands. Co-directed by Christian deRezendes and Nicky's older brother Christian O’Neill, 41 weaves together the story of a beautiful life cut short with the saga of a community in mourning and a family finding its way out of the darkness. 41 The Movie Website
