Film Screening: Alma's Rainbow, Princeton Garden Theatre

Sunday February 16, 2025
11:00 AM

One of the first feature films written, produced, and directed by an African American woman. ALMA’S RAINBOW is a coming-of-age story about Rainbow Gold, a Brooklyn teenager who searches for meaning as she confronts her newfound feelings for boys, unrealistic beauty standards, and the fundamental question of women's autonomy over their own bodies. Throughout her exploration, she reflects on the lives of the two adult women closest to her: her uptight mother Alma and her flamboyant Aunt Ruby. This film is a significant contribution to ‘90s independent Black cinema and remains relevant in contemporary discussions. Presented in a new restoration.

Underwritten by the YWCA Princeton

Guess Who's Coming To Dinner, Kelsey Theatre

Sunday February 16, 2025
2:00 PM

It's 1967 and a progressive white couple's proud liberal sensibilities are tested when their daughter brings her black fiancé home to meet them in this fresh and relevant stage adaptation of the iconic film. Blindsided by their daughter's whirlwind romance, Matt and Christina Drayton quickly come to realize the difference between supporting a mixed-race couple in your newspaper and welcoming one into your family. However, they aren't the only ones with concerns about the match, and soon a multi-family clash of racial and generational difference sweeps across the Draytons' idyllic San Francisco terrace. At the end of the day, will the love between young Joanna and John prevail? With humor and insight, this drama begins a conversation sure to continue at dinner tables long after the curtain comes down. Rated PG13.
