SUMMARY:Broker: dir Hirokazu Kore-eda (2022)
DESCRIPTION:One rainy night\, Moon So-young (Lee ‘IU’ Ji-eun) leaves her baby Woo-sung outside a ‘baby box’ in Busan\, a safe place set up in Korean churches for new mothers to leave unwanted infants. But instead\, he’s stolen by Sang-hyun (Song Kang-ho) who runs an unofficial adoption brokerage with his business partner (Gang Dong-won). Remorseful at abandoning her child\, So-young tracks the pair down and goes on a road trip with them to meet the baby’s potential parents\, collecting a seven-year-old stowaway from a nearby orphanage along the way.  As they search for Woo-sung’s new family\, the unlikely group evolves into something of a family themselves – unaware they’re being tailed by two detectives (Bae Doona\, Lee Joo-young) who are determined to stop them. A heartwarming\, funny and moving family road movie cum crime comedy\, Broker is an outstanding film from Academy Award nominated filmmaker Hirokazu Kore-eda. In Korean with English subtitles.

SUMMARY:Monday Night Comedy: This Is Impro & Ahmed
DESCRIPTION:One of the Coutryard’s two-act evenings of spontaneous scenes and stories based on audience suggestions. First up is the regular Monday evening mix of scenes\, stories and narrative improvisation from some of the Courtyard Playhouse’s most experienced improv performers plus guests. Then the two Ahmeds take to the stage for the Courtyard’s first ever bilingual improv\, which should be a lot of fun … It’s free\, but you need to put your name on the guestlist (via the website) – it’s first-come first-served\, so get there early enough to grab a seat.
