THE HERETICS will be shown at the Academy of Music in downtown Northampton at 7:30 PM on Thursday, Oct. 22.

The film opened to packed houses at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City last Friday evening.  An extra show was added after the first to accommodate the overflow crowd.  Friday morning, the New York Times had published a rave review, calling the THE HERETICS, “exuberant…gives a joyful sense of what it was like to be a feminist in the 1970′s, a time when ‘everything seemed possible’”. The high profile women artists and writers today, she writes, are “just as passionate and engaged.  It’s a pleasure to spend time in their company.”

Tickets are $20 general admission and $10 for students with ID. There will be a question and answer period with Joan Braderman after the screening.  Tickets can be purchased at the Academy of Music box office or online at  www.academyofmusictheater.com

The box office is open from 3 to 6 PM from Tuesday  through Friday.  Credit card users will be charged an additional 5%.

With its world premiere, a week long run, Oct. 9-15, at the Museum of Modern Art,  this will be the second showing of THE HERETICS.
