The Beacon

The weekend of October 17-19 Orchestra Hall Theatre in Lakeside will present Henry Poole is Here, starring Luke Wilson, George Lopez and Cheryl Hines.  Immediately following the Friday night 8 p.m. showing there will be a community film discussion led by Rev. Bruce Batchelor-Glader of Trinity United Methodist in Port Clinton.  

This is a comedic drama about a disillusioned man who goes hiding in placid suburbia only to discover he cannot escape the forces of hope.  Returning to the middleclass neighborhood where he grew up, Henry Poole (Luke Wilson) chooses to live in indulgent isolation.  Real life, however, refuses to cooperate with his plans.  A faithless man finds hope and love.  Whether backyard miracles are real or triggered by hope and belief, their personal effects are permanent.

Tickets are $5 for adults and $3 for children12 and under.
