‘Hundreds of Beavers’ Arriving at The Lindsay Friday, April 26
It's a 19th century supernatural winter epic. It's a slapstick homage to silent films. It's a whole bunch of humans dressed up in beaver suits. It's Hundreds of Beavers, the one-of-a-kind film drawing crowds to theaters across the nation, opening at The Lindsay Theater and Cultural Center Friday, April 26.
Directed by Mike Cheslik in just his second feature effort, the film stars Ryland Brickson Cole Tews as failed applejack salesman/fur trapper Jean Kayak, who is on a mission to collect beaver pelts in order to make a living and win the heart of a local furrier. Local beavers, understandably, object.
The film has racked up awards at numerous festivals, including Best Comedy and Audience Award at the Jim Thorpe Independent Film Festival, Best Director at the Phoenix Film Festival and Best Narrative Feature at the Oxford, Mississippi Film Festival.
"This DIY delight…is sure to develop a significant cult following with its unique mix of silent-era slapstick, animation elements, theme-park-style critter costumes, and general air of inspired absurdity," says Variety.
"On paper, it would hardly be expected to remain funny for eight minutes, let alone 108. But this ingeniously home-made lark never runs out of steam."
Beaver County residents, how can you resist? Residents of all counties are welcome to watch what the New York Times calls "a madcap genre-hopper" with a "cineaste's discernment" behind its hilarious surface. Tickets.
The Lindsay Theater and Cultural Center is an independent, film-driven arts nonprofit located at 418 Walnut St. in Sewickley.

Capturing Memories: The Magic of a Photo Booth at Your Wedding
Are you looking for an impressive and fun way to make your wedding day even more memorable? Look no further than a photo booth! Photo booths have become a popular addition to weddings in recent years, and we can see why!
Not only do photo booths provide entertainment for your guests, but they also create lasting memories that you can cherish for years to come. An open air photo booth have a sleek and modern design that can easily be added to any reception while taking up very little space.

1. Entertainment for Guests
Weddings are all about celebrating love and creating unforgettable moments. A photo booth adds an element of fun, excitement, and creativity to your special day, giving your guests a chance to let loose and have a great time. Whether they're striking a pose with silly props or capturing candid moments with loved ones, a photo booth is sure to keep everyone entertained.
2. Unique Keepsakes
While professional wedding photographers and videographers are essential for capturing the big moments, a photo booth allows guests to take their own photos and create personalized keepsakes. From funny group shots to intimate couple portraits, the photos taken with the booth will be unique and special, providing a different perspective on your wedding day. Photo booths are also capable of taking videos, boomerangs and gifs! This opens another opportunity for creative captures. Add a second photo booth to your big day and place one booth near the dance floor to capture everyone's stellar dance moves through video or boomerangs!
3. Guest Book Alternative
Instead of a traditional guest book, consider having a photo booth at your wedding for guests to leave a printed photo in a custom photo album with a personal message. This interactive guest book alternative not only captures the essence of your wedding day but also gives you a fun memento to look back on for years to come.
4. Social Media Sharing
In today's digital age, sharing photos on social media is a common way to connect with friends and family. A photo booth with instant printing and digital sharing options allows your guests to share their photos online, instantly! Remember those videos boomerangs and gifs, from the dance floor? Make your social media friends laugh with the silly photos, videos, boomerangs and gifs!
5. Instant Gallery
Wake up the next morning to your full gallery from the night! Relive the night through an instant gallery while your photographer and videographer are still working hard to deliver your sneak peak.
6. Personalization and Fun Props
Photo booths can be customized to fit the theme and style of your wedding. From backdrops to props, you can tailor the experience to reflect your personalities as a couple. Guests will love dressing up, trying out different props, and creating truly memorable and fun photos. Add more personalization with a custom guest interface screen (the tap to start screen) using a photo of the couple or using the color and theme of the wedding. Your template will also feature your first names, initials, last name and/or date! The possibilities are endless with personalizing your photo booth rental!
Your wedding day is a celebration of love, joy, and memories that will last a lifetime. Capture those memories with a photo booth!
