The Standbys at Crested Butte Center for the Arts- February 19, 2013

Every night on Broadway, dozens of the best performers aren’t on stage. They are backstage, standing by, ready to go on at a moment’s notice. The unique and challenging lives of Broadway’s Understudies and Standbys are revealed in this evocative and original behind-the-scenes documentary.

The Standbys follows a variety of undiscovered performers for several years through their ups and downs, struggles and triumphs, onstage performances and private lives. When these Standbys are finally given the chance of a lifetime, anything can – and does – happen. The film will be followed by a Q&A session with the filmmakers or the actors.

Doors: 7:00 p.m.
Showtime: 7:30 p.m.
