Aaron Aites

93 minutes

"Morbidly fascinating..."
- Variety

Until the Light Takes Us is a feature length documentary chronicling the history, ideology and aesthetic of Norwegian black metal - a musical subculture infamous as much for a series of murders and church arsons as it is for its unique musical and visual aesthetics. This is the first (and only) film to truly shed light on a movement that has heretofore been shrouded in darkness and rumor and obscured by inaccurate and shallow depictions. Featuring exclusive interviews and verité with the musicians, a wealth of rare, seldom seen footage from the "Inner Circle"s earliest days, Until the Light Takes Us explores every aspect of the controversial movement that has captured the attention of the world.

DAS RHEINGOLD
- In February



Opera Theater Oregon presents...

DAS RHEINGOLD
The first opera in Richard Wagner's 'Ring Cycle,' rescripted as a 'Baywatch' episode. Follow the mad career of deejay Larry Loomin' Large (Alberich), whose lifelong Napoleon complex has driven him into a dark obsession with obtaining the Perfect Tan (the Rheingold) and, with it, ultimate control over everyone and everything.

Can Mitch (Wotan) stop him in time, or will he too succumb to the unholy allure of the magical Tanhelm? CJ, Matt, Hobie, Stephanie and Caroline join in a race against time to stop the Perfect Tan, once enjoyed in innocence, from becoming the downfall of Western Civilization.

LEITMOTIF BINGO!
Wagner's operas are known for their many leitmotifs (theme songs) for characters, feelings and ideas. The evening starts with a rousing round of Leitmotif Bingo, designed to give the audience a fighting chance at figuring out just what the hell Wagner is trying to say (visual aids provided - and teutonic prizes!).

Featuring special musical guests Electric Opera Company and Festival Brass.
Written/directed by OTO Artistic Director Katie Taylor (loosely adapted from the "Baywatch" Season 5 ep "KGAS The Groove Yard of Solid Gold"). Music arranged by OTO Music Director Erica Melton and Ben Landsverk, and directed by Erica Melton. Technical direction by Robin Greenwood.

Presented by kind permission of 'Baywatch' creator Gregory J. Bonnan.

With his big plans for Sunnyvale going down the toilet, his relationship with Randy broken down, and having the Boys back in the park is all way too much pressure for him to bear. For Jim Lahey, the countdown to liquor day is on. Meanwhile, Julian's having problems of his own and the Boys are forced to resort to doing what they know best - breaking the law.
