An Evening with Brad Orsted

OPEN TO THE PUBLIC | FREE ADMISSION

You're invited to spend an evening with author and filmmaker Brad Orsted. Brad Orsted is an award-winning wildlife and conservation filmmaker/photographer, author, speaker and wilderness therapy instructor. Brad’s work has appeared on Nat Geo Wild, The BBC, PBS, Nature, The Washington Post and Smithsonian Channel. Brad’s most recent film, “The Beast of Our Time: Grizzly Bears and Climate Change” is narrated by none other than The Dude, Jeff Bridges.

Fifty-years-in-the-making, The Beast of Our Time interviews top scientists, advocates, authors, ranchers, and indigenous poets to investigate the catastrophic effects of climate change on grizzlies and their habitat. The film is both a dire warning and a compelling call to action to advocate for habitat, connectivity, tolerance, wildlife crossings, and room to roam. The film recently won Best Environmental Film Award at the Los Angeles Film Festival.

Brad’s first memoir, Through the Wilderness: My Journey of Redemption and Healing in the American Wild, was released in June, 2023. The evening will include a viewing of his short film "The Beast of our Time..." along with a short reading from his memoir and a Q&A. This event is free to the public.

The doors will open at 6:30PM. Books will be available for purchase at the event and Brad will be signing them for guests.

This event is brought to you by Cub Creek Photography (Amy Gerber) in cooperation with The Cody Theater and Legends Bookstore

Wine, Women, & Dementia: the documentary

FREE ADMISSION; OPEN TO THE PUBLIC

Brought to you by Park County Library

The world is facing a crisis as baby boomers age into dementia. The U.S. is no exception with an estimated 16 million unpaid dementia family caregivers currently punching dementia in the face every damn day while trying to keep our dementia loved ones and ourselves afloat emotionally, physically, financially.​ The documentary feature Wine, Women, & Dementia exposes the isolation, financial stress, physical and emotional toll these family caregivers shoulder for their dementia loved ones and themselves. And in a system that offers few resources or support, they build community, champion each other, and learn to celebrate LIFE on the long road to death.

Mister Lincoln

4:00 PM16:00

Mister Lincoln

This is Lincoln's life and mind from the moment he stepped on the public stage, during his youth and maturity in Illinois as an advocate, to the momentous years he spent in Washington as the great emancipator during the Civil War. The events and ideas are rooted in historical records and new discoveries by the playwright about Lincoln the man, the husband, the wartime commander in chief, the president—with special emphasis on Lincoln's own brilliant language. By the conclusion of the play, the audience has discovered the inner life of the human, humorous, and often troubled president's personal and public self. The Lincoln who emerges in this show is no country bumpkin but a wise and often shrewd man of both velvet and steel.

"Eloquent" was how the Washington Star described the production at Ford's Theatre in Washington, the place where Lincoln was assassinated. When the play reached Broadway, the N.Y. Times called it "human and humane."

  • Run Time: approximately 100 minutes with 15 min. intermission

  • Everyone must have a seat and a ticket. Sitting on laps or standing in the back is not permitted.

  • Children under 4 will not be permitted. 

  • Clem's Canteen & Creamery in the theatre lobby will be open for business offering build your own ice cream bars, popcorn, candy, soda, lemonade, and tea.
