This week at Theatre N:

The Promise: The Making of Darkness on the Edge of Town:

This Bruce Springsteen documentary combines concert footage from the late seventies with modern interviews of the E-Street Band, and those involved in their career.  Per The Boss's instructions, 100% of proceeds will go back to Theatre N.  Showsings are Saturday at 6pm and Sunday at 5:30pm.   Ticket price is $10 for this one.

Super:

Starring The Office's Rainn Wilson, and Liv Tyler, this James Gunn comedy is the latest in the recent trend of movies about average guys becoming, or attempting to become, super heroes.   With an obviously diy costume, a wise-cracking sidekick (Ellen Page playing the petite-girl-with-gruff-voice-and-saucy-attitude role she always plays), and an odd weapon choice, this superhero should be at least mildly entertaining.  Friday at 8, Saturday at 3:45, or Sunday at 3:15.  $7.

Power Struggle, with wine and cheese reception, Thursday only.  From Theatre N:

"In late 2006, 22-year-old Kathryn Cunningham Hall set out to bring round-the-clock electricity to a hospital in West Africa. Since then, Power Up Gambia has improved conditions at a number of Gambian health facilities, thanks in large part to supporters in the Wilmington area.

Now, PUG is featured in the compelling documentary film “Power Struggle”. Power Up Gambia is inviting our supporters, both old and new, to join us for an exclusive evening at Theatre N in Downtown Wilmington.
Seating is limited and reserved seating is required. (Use "comp ticket" as form of payment when reserving).
The evening’s programming includes:
•Wine & Cheese Reception
•“Power Struggle” Documentary Film Screening
•Q&A with PUG founder Kathryn Hall and filmmaker David Dawkins
•PUG Board Members share the latest from their recent trip to The Gambia.
•Coffee, Tea & Desserts"

Thursday at 7pm.  Free, but donations to the cause are appreciated.

Royal Wedding Live:

If you're really into the whole royal wedding thing (somebody must be - Barnes and Noble has no less than a dozen books about the young couple.  Really?), and you don't mind the torture of a pre-dawn alarm setting, Theatre N is showing the royal wedding live on Friday.  At 4am.  They'll have scones and English tea.  Free.
