This Week at The Broad: It’s a Beautiful Day in the Park

Sponsored by
It was an incredible weekend this past week (pun intended) as Incredibles 2 proved that maybe 14 years was just the right time for a sequel. With that big movie entering its second weekend, we are doubling down with two new movies that have been highly requested. 
JURASSIC WORLD: FALLEN KINGDOM is the fifth entry in the Jurassic Park/World franchise and by now you know the formula: man messes with nature and nature messes with man much harder. The reason why we’re excited for this one is simple, that formula works really really well. Most of the gang from Jurassic World returns, and one Dr. Ian Malcolm comes back to the franchise that made him the most memeable man in the world.

Advertiser: Southern Rep Theatre is bringing Elephant and Piggie to the stage for young audiences!

The beloved characters from children’s author Mo Willems sing and dance their way through an hour-long vaudevillian romp suitable for the smallest theatre-goers and priced for families. An elephant named Gerald and a pig named Piggie are best, best, “bestus” (a word Gerald and Piggie made up that means “very best”) friends, but Gerald worries that something could go wrong that would end their friendship. Piggie is not worried at all. She’s even happier and more excited than usual. That’s because she and Gerald are invited to a party hosted by the Squirrelles, three singing squirrels who love to have a good time.

This Week at The Broad: Yeah, It’s Scary

Do you know what we do on slow Tuesday afternoons at The Broad? We like to tell scary stories around the daiquiri machine (did you know we have a new daiquiri machine?). This week’s new film is scarier than any story the bartenders have whipped up and that’s saying quite a lot. 
HEREDITARY is getting lots of comparisons to The Exorcist, and that’s high praise for fans of scary movies. Toni Colette stars in this thriller about family secrets that were best left secret.

Advertiser: At the right time, the “Foundation Preparatory Charter School” word is getting out

The word is getting out that Foundation Preparatory Charter School is exactly what parents find most important at some of New Orleans’ most prominent (and private) schools. 9 to 1 student/teacher ratio
Enriched learning (like yoga and coding)
Focus on diversity
Individual Growth
Cultural and art appreciation

Yes, we have a new location and the warm welcome to the City Park/Faubourg St. John Community is appreciated. Foundation Preparatory Charter School is glad to call the McDonogh #28 building our new home. This space will allow us to serve more families who are committed to their child’s education.

Advertiser: A Broadway political drama comes to New Orleans

The regional premiere of Tony Award-winning play ALL THE WAY by Robert Schenkkan is running now until June 3 at Loyola University Theatre with special events every day this weekend. Presented by Southern Rep Theatre, the political drama follows Lyndon B. Johnson, Martin Luther King, Jr., and a huge cast of historical figures through the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Johnson’s re-election campaign. ALL THE WAY received national acclaim in its 2014 run on Broadway, where it won the Tony Award for Best Play. Star Bryan Cranston—also a Tony Award winner—then reprised his role as LBJ in a 2016 HBO film adapted by playwright Robert Schenkkan. Southern Rep’s production features Jason Kirkpatrick and Dominique McClellan in the pivotal roles of LBJ and MLK Jr. Director Aimée Hayes oversees a cast of 30 performers to portray the dozens of speaking roles that bring this historical drama to life.

This Week at The Broad: Who runs the world?

Sponsored by
This week is devoted to a certain segment of our audience base that we love dearly. This week is for the ladies. We’ve got two new movies this weekend about women who refuse to lay down and accept the status quo. Whether it’s a mom trying to save her family or a judge trying to save the Constitution, you will find some great inspiration in our picks this week. RBG is about the Supreme Court justice who is notorious for all the right reasons.
