Hundreds of Beavers Live Tour + Q&A
Queen's Film Theatre presents a special presentation of the anarchic slapstick comedy Hundreds of Beavers (2022) featuring a live performance and post-screening Q&A with star and co-writer Ryland Brickson Cole Tews.
Join star Ryland Brickson Cole Tews and his beaver for this special one-night-only Q&A screening of the instant-cult classic comedy Hundreds of Beavers.
Jean Kayak (Ryland Brickson Cole Tews) finds himself stranded in a surreal winter landscape with nothing but his dim wits to guide him. Against a backdrop of ruthless elements and sinister creatures - all played by actors in full-sized mascot costumes – Kayak develops increasingly complex traps in order to win the hand of a mischievous lover.
Radiant with DIY energy and packed with hilarious gags, Cheslik and Brickson Cole Tews' passion project is at once a quirky spoof on the au sérieux survival genre, a critique of American colonialism and a zany ode to slapstick cartoons like Looney Tunes and Popeye.
This film contains flickering or flashing lights that may affect those with photosensitive epilepsy.
The screening will be followed by a Q&A with star and co-writer Ryland Brickson Cole Tews.
"...you’d do well to satisfy your craving for knockabout lunacy by checking out Hundreds of Beavers, as visionary as any indie in many a moon, and a dam site (ahem) more fun." Los Angeles Times
