The Tampa Theater is on the road this weekend with a FREE screening at the University of Tampa at the Reeves Theater (Vaughn Center) on campus. Tickets are not required - simply first-come, first-serve basis with doors opening 30 minutes before show time, Saturday, June 13, at 1pm.

The fictional tale tapes into real Florida history-land booms, tourism, racial legacy, and the reinvention of paradise on replay. Angela Bassett and Edie Falco star in SUNSHINE STATE. The film is directed by John Sayles and shows a woman returning home with her new husband and a greek chorus of golfers as outside investors move in to pave over their hometown.

The FREE screening of SUNSHINE STATE will be followed by a FILM TALK with Charles McGraw Groh, Ph.D., Director at Henry B. Plant Museum & Associate Professor of History at University of Tampa, and James Deford, Tampa Theater Film Program Manager.
