RUSH: BEYOND THE LIGHTED STAGE Screens Thursday January 11th at Schlafly Bottleworks

RUSH: BEYOND THE LIGHTED STAGE screens Thursday January 11th at 7:00pm at Schlafly Bottleworks (7260 Southwest Avenue Maplewood, MO 63143). This is part of the A FILM SERIES “Culture Shock” Film Fest which has moved to the second Thursday of every month. 

RUSH: BEYOND THE LIGHTED STAGE  is an in-depth look at the Canadian rock band Rush, chronicling the band’s musical evolution from their progressive rock sound of the ’70s to their current heavy rock style.

RUSH: BEYOND THE LIGHTED STAGE takes a three-pronged approach. First, there are interviews done in contemporary time, with the three principals of the Canadian rock band Rush, and well-known musicians who admire them, or were influenced by them. Second, there are interviews with family, handlers, and music industry associates. Third, there are many archival clips of live performances of Rush.
