“Misunderstood Creatures” get in free at Edward Scissorhands this Friday at UPAC

edward-sissorheands-@If you don’t want to fork over the nominal $6 admission charge for the 7:30 p.m. show of Edward Scissorhands this Friday, November 20 at the Ulster Performing Arts Center in Kingston, all you need to do is dress as a Misunderstood Creature, like Johnny Depp’s well-meaning-but-hazardous title character. That challenge should get some imaginations going!

Made in 1990 and widely regarded as one of the best films in the weird oeuvre of director Tim Burton, Edward Scissorhands was Depp’s first big-screen lead role. Also in the cast are Vincent Price, Winona Ryder, Dianne Wiest and Anthony Michael Hall. It’s a strange, funny and touching movie, and you get to check out all the cool costumes at this screening as well!

Tickets can be purchased at the UPAC box office at 601 Broadway in Kingston, (845) 339-6088, or through Ticketmaster at (800) 745-3000 or www.ticketmaster.com. For more info, visit www.bardavon.org.

Join the family! Grab a free month of HV1 from the folks who have brought you substantive local news since 1972. We made it 50 years thanks to support from readers like you. Help us keep real journalism alive.

Frances Marion Platt

Frances Marion Platt has been a feature writer (and copyeditor) for Ulster Publishing since 1994, under both her own name and the nom de plume Zhemyna Jurate. Her reporting beats include Gardiner and Rosendale, the arts and a bit of local history. In 2011 she took up Syd M’s mantle as film reviewer for Alm@nac Weekly, and she hopes to return to doing more of that as HV1 recovers from the shock of COVID-19. A Queens native, Platt moved to New Paltz in 1971 to earn a BA in English and minor in Linguistics at SUNY. Her first writing/editing gig was with the Ulster County Artist magazine. In the 1980s she was assistant editor of The Independent Film and Video Monthly for five years, attended Heartwood Owner/Builder School, designed and built a timberframe house in Gardiner. Her son Evan Pallor was born in 1995. Alternating with her journalism career, she spent many years doing development work – mainly grantwriting – for a variety of not-for-profit organizations, including six years at Scenic Hudson. She currently lives in Kingston.
