Stuart Theatre
Inspired by the 1920s story of Ruth Snyder, Machinal highlights the relentless pressure of a society that keeps a young woman trapped between expectation and desire. Through a series of nine episodes, we follow a young woman’s journey as societal demands of marriage, motherhood, and work clash with her yearning for freedom.

Leeds Theatre
In a run-down movie theater in central Massachusetts, three underpaid employees mop the floors and attend to one of the last 35mm film projectors in the state. Their tiny battles and not-so-tiny heartbreaks play out in the empty aisles, becoming more gripping than the lackluster, second-run movies on screen.
