Fountain Theatre/Mesilla Valley Film Society

THE CineMatinee FILM SERIES AT THE FOUNTAIN THEATRE.

"Prairie Home Companion" event at the Fountain Theatre

To help celebrate the arrival of Garrison Keillor and the cast and crew of "A Prairie Home Companion", the long running NPR radio show, to Las Cruces on May 31, the Mesilla Valley Film Society will present a special screening of the movie version of the show at the Fountain Theatre in Mesilla, on Saturday, May 24, beginning at 1.30 PM.

Our special guest will be actor/director L.Q. Jones, one of the co-stars of the film, who has also appeared in over 100 other film and television productions, and has worked with everyone from Antonia Banderas to Martin Scorsese.

In addition to Mr. Jones appearance, KRWG radio will be giving away a pair of tickets to the May 31 show, which includes backstage passes and a reception with the cast of the show. Value of these tickets is $500.

A reception will take place at Vintage Wines, who will offer a discount on glasses of wine. The new shop is located directly across the street from the Fountain Theatre, and an additional activity with Mr. Jones will also be announced soon.

Tickets for this event will be $8 for Mesilla Valley Film Society members and $10 for non-members, and will be available at the theatre box office, Spirit Winds Coffee Bar and Gift Source, and at The Bean Coffee House in Mesilla.

Please note that the limited seating capacity of the theatre means that ticket sales will be limited to approximately 100. No reserved seats or reserved tickets, sorry!
