POLITICAL SUICIDE
In time for the primary, Whitebridge Farm Productions presents the World Premiere of four darkly funny new plays by Ernest Thompson: POTATO HEAD FOR PRESIDENT imagines taking the best of each candidate and creating one inspiring one; OCCUPY NEW LEXINGTON features a small town kid dreaming of joining the movement; in WELFARE THEE WELL a once wealthy widow applies for welfare; and REWRITE pits a jaded US Senator against his toughest critic, the still lovely newspaper editor whose formidable path he one long ago night unforgettably crossed. Directed by Mr. Thompson and starring Austine Howard, Meredith Imbimbo, Pat Longille, Evan Clinton, and Ernest Thompson. January 8 - February 12. Pitman's Freight Room, Laconia, NH. Order tickets online at www.WhitebridgeFarmProductions.com.

UPCOMING FILM |

TIME AND CHARGES
Offered by Whitebridge Farm Productions as On Location Training for anyone of any age interested in any aspect of filmmaking, TIME AND CHARGES has been a two year labor of love, and drawn more than 500 actors, extras, designers, composers, crew members and volunteers. Now in the final stages of Post Production. Watch for film festival and distribution news at www.WhitebridgeFarmProductions.com

HEAVENLY ANGLE
Written and directed by Mr. Thompson, the story of a well-traveled filmmaker who comes to a small town in New Hampshire to make a movie.  (See above:  two years of research.) Offered as a SAG-signatory, On Location Training opportunity now in Post Production.

ELYSIAN FARM
Mr. Thompson directs his new screenplay, a story of heartbreak and cruelty, courage and redemption, when a man rescues a little girl from her abusive home and finds himself accused of kidnapping her. Terrifying, touching and with the same rich humor of ON GOLDEN POND, ELYSIAN FARM is a hard but ultimately hopeful look at what heroism really is and, particularly in today's culture of fractured families and economic pressures and technological isolation, how crucial it is to take a stand on behalf of society's most vulnerable.
