DAVID RAGSDALE, Guest Conductor • GREGORY VAJDA, Music Director One of the nation’s major aerospace hubs, Huntsville—the “Rocket City”—has been heavily invested in the industry since Operation Paperclip brought more than 1,600 German scientists to the United States between 1945 and 1959. The Army Ballistic Missile Agency arrived at Redstone Arsenal in 1956, and Eisenhower opened NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center in 1960 with Dr. Wernher von Braun as Director. The Redstone and Saturn rockets, the “Moon Buggy” (Lunar Roving Vehicle), Skylab, the Space Shuttle Program, and the Hubble Space Telescope are just a few of the many projects led or assisted by Huntsville. Tonight’s concert celebrates our community’s vital contributions to rocketry and space exploration, at the most opportune of celestial conjunctions: July 2019 marked the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon-landing mission, and 2020 brings the 50th anniversary of the U.S. Space and Rocket Center, America’s leading aerospace museum and Alabama’s largest tourist attraction.

    Presents SHEPARD & DARK A DOCUMENTARY BY TREVA WURMFELD 92 min., U.S., 2012 OFFICIAL SELECTION – 2012 TORONTO INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL OFFICIAL SELECTION – 2013 CANNES CLASSICS – CANNES FILM FESTIVAL WINNER BEST DOC FEATURE – 2012 WOODSTOCK FILM FESTIVAL To download hi-res images and video clips, please visit: http://www.musicboxfilms.com/shepard---dark-movies-71.php Publicity/Marketing Contact: Distribution Contact: Brian Andreotti Andrew Carlin 312-508-5361 312-508-5360 [email protected] [email protected] Rebecca Gordon 312-508-5362 [email protected] Press Contact: Lindsay Firestone 212-373-6131 [email protected] Marian Koltai-Levine 212-373-6130 [email protected] SUMMARY Sam Shepard and Johnny Dark met in Greenwich Village in the early 1960s and, despite leading very different lives, remained close friends ever since. Shepard became a Pulitzer Prize winning playwright (Buried Child) and an Academy Award-nominated actor (THE RIGHT STUFF), while Dark was a homebody who supported himself with odd jobs. Through the decades, they stayed bonded by family ties. Dark married an older woman named Scarlett and Shepard married her daughter. For years, the two couples lived together, until Shepard broke away for a relationship with Jessica Lange in 1983, leaving Johnny to help father his first son. Nevertheless, he and Dark continued writing to each other, amassing hundreds of letters. Director Treva Wurmfeld began filming the two friends in 2010 during a period of transition and reflection for Shepard. At the time, he had quietly ended his relationship with Lange and agreed to publish his correspondence with Dark. The task required them to meet and sift through years of their shared history, stirring memories both good and bad.
