Tornado Alley 3D also will open in the Regnier Extreme Screen Theatre on Friday April 5th for two daily morning shows of this dramatic 45-minute nature film. The film follows storm chasers Sean Casey and the researchers of VORTEX 2, the most ambitious effort ever made to understand the origins and evolution of tornadoes, on this heart-pounding science adventure. Armed with a 70mm camera, a fleet of customized vehicles designed to withstand gale-force winds, torrential rains and unrelenting hail, an arsenal of the most advanced weather instruments ever created, the stars of Tornado Alley take audiences on a thrilling quest to experience a tornado's destructive power at point-blank range. Experience the adrenaline and the science of nature's most dramatic phenomena.
Daily show times for Tornado Alley 3D will be at 10 a.m. and 11:15 a.m.

About Tornado Alley 3D: Traversing the "severe weather capital of the world," TORNADO ALLEY documents two unprecedented missions seeking to encounter one of Earth's most awe-inspiring events -- the birth of a tornado. Filmmaker Sean Casey's personal quest to capture the birth of a tornado with a 70mm camera takes viewers on a breathtaking journey into the heart of the storm. A team of equally driven scientists, the VORTEX2 researchers, experience the relentless strength of nature's elemental forces as they literally surround tornadoes and the supercell storms that form them, gathering the most comprehensive severe weather data ever collected. This science adventure reveals the beauty and the power of some of our planet's most extreme -- and least understood -- weather phenomena.
Buy tickets: Extreme Screen Theatre Tickets and trailers to both movies are available at unionstation.org and at the Union Station box office. As a first-run movie, no passes will be accepted for tickets to Jurassic Park 3D.

SYNOPSIS: The collaborators on Chess (Music by Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus of the pop group ABBA and lyrics by Tim Rice of Jesus Christ Superstar and Evita), have created a complex rock opera that played to full Broadway houses and standing ovations. Here, the ancient game becomes a metaphor for romantic rivalries, competitive gamesmanship, super power politics and international intrigues. The pawns in this drama form a love triangle: the loutish American chess star, the earnest Russian champion and a Hungarian American female assistant who arrives at the international chess match in Bangkok with the American but falls for the Russian. From Bangkok to Budapest the players, lovers, politicians, and spies manipulate and are manipulated to the pulse of a monumental rock score that includes "One Night in Bangkok" and "Heaven Help My Heart."

SYNOPSIS: The collaborators on Chess (Music by Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus of the pop group ABBA and lyrics by Tim Rice of Jesus Christ Superstar and Evita), have created a complex rock opera that played to full Broadway houses and standing ovations. Here, the ancient game becomes a metaphor for romantic rivalries, competitive gamesmanship, super power politics and international intrigues. The pawns in this drama form a love triangle: the loutish American chess star, the earnest Russian champion and a Hungarian American female assistant who arrives at the international chess match in Bangkok with the American but falls for the Russian. From Bangkok to Budapest the players, lovers, politicians, and spies manipulate and are manipulated to the pulse of a monumental rock score that includes "One Night in Bangkok" and "Heaven Help My Heart."

Right Between the Ears Auditions
Right Between the Ears, the award-winning
radio comedy show, is holding its first auditions
in over a decade, with opportunities for one
male and one female cast member.
A four-time winner of the Gold Medal as Best
Comedy Show at the New York Festivals, the
show has been broadcast on National Public
Radio, BBC 4, Sirius-XM and Delta Radio. In
the Kansas City area, RBTE airs every Sunday
at 7:00pm on Kansas Public Radio stations.
Right Between the Ears is a fast-paced sketch
show, with paid cast members performing
multiple roles. We're especially interested in
actors with a knack for celebrity impressions,
accents and pop culture. Performances are
script-in-hand, typically with three rehearsals
per show. Upcoming shows will take place at
the HearNOW Festival, the KC Fringe Festival
and Liberty Hall in Lawrence.
True to its oddball nature, Right Between the
Ears has a decidedly different audition process.
Simply send your voice demo reel to
darrell@rightbetweentheears.org or, if you
prefer snail mail, to Right Between the Ears,
P.O. Box 442085, Lawrence, KS 66044. In-
person auditions will be arranged with
individual actors as needed. Questions may be
directed to darrell@rightbetweentheears.org.

performances, visit
