Healdsburg: Home to celebrated wineries, world-class art galleries...and of course, one small but beloved community theater!
Last summer the Raven Players ended their 2011-12 season with that most beloved of show-biz musicals: “Gypsy, A Musical Fable”. And director Scott Roberts’ documentary camera was there, capturing the action every step of the way! Now, you can come along for the journey and be a “fly on the wall” as the fascinating process of staging a hit musical moves from concept to completion.
In that spirit, we’re proud to be hosting a special “World Premiere” fundraiser that celebrates the Raven and the productions that make it so special. Join us for the new documentary, “The Raven and the Gypsy”!
The lights are lowered, and the audience is seated. Let's put on a show!
Running Time: Approx. 2 hours
About the Director:
A true "son of the midwest", Scott Roberts was born in Harry Truman's hometown of Independence, Missouri and grew up in a small town on the outskirts of Kansas City. Upon graduation, he moved west to California, where he earned a B.A. in Theater from UCLA.
"The Raven and the Gypsy" is Scott's first documentary. Other projects as a director include the satirical music video "The Nair Song" and the narrative feature "Letters Home" (which he also wrote and produced). He has also written a number of feature screenplays, including the family adventure "The Anaheim Project" and dark comedy "Strange Relationships".
Scott resides in Sausalito, California.
