FAMILY THEATERWanda & The Wave – May 9Adapted for the stage from Shelley Jackson’s popular children’s book, “The Old Woman & The Wave,” Wanda & The Wave presents an afternoon of puppetry and music that encourages creativity through audience participation.

DOCUMENTARY FILMRising From Ashes – May 14Executive produced and narrated by Forest Whitaker, this film follows cyclist Jock Boyer as he moves to Rwanda in 2005 to begin building the first Rwandan National Cycling Team. Many of these Rwandan cyclists were still small children during the 1994 genocide and for 11 years, they lived in the aftermath of one of history’s most devastating genocides. But with Jock’s leadership, the riders begin to excel and learn what it means to be top-level athletes. In the process, they give their countrymen a vision of something greater than themselves and their history: hope for a better future. Director T. C. Johnstone will lead a post-screening discussion.
