ELAC Theater Arts and 'Team A Little Hope' invite you to attend this screening of the multi-award-winning feature film, A LITTLE HOPE FOR CHICAGO. Talkback immediately following the show.
We are collaborating to help send a team of ELAC Theater students to the Kennedy Center American Theater Festival (KCACTF) in Mesa, AZ this Feb 11-15, 2025.
Part narrative performance, part documentary, A LITTLE HOPE FOR CHICAGO follows a Chicago hustler as he narrowly avoids the devastating consequences of death and incarceration. Through his journey, the film explores the systemic root causes of violence and trauma that consume urban youth, while also offering a glimmer of hope for change.
The five-time award-winning film screened at the Dances With Films Festival of New York last month on December 6th. They have screened to large, enthusiastic audiences in Los Angeles, Oakland, Atlanta, Indianapolis, and Belize Central America. They hope to advance the movement to end gun violence and focus on intervention and rehabilitation through this important film.
