DESCRIPTION:Day: Thursday\, March 23\, 2023\nTime: 7:00 PM\nVenue: Five Points Theatre\, 1 Dunlop St W\, Barrie\, ON L4N 1A1\nBUY TICKETS\n  \nDocumentary | 87 min. | USA \nDirected by Bradford Thomason and Brett Whitcomb\nFeaturing: LeVar Burton\, Twila Liggett\, Larry Lancit\, Cecily Truett Lancit\, Tony Buttino\, Steve Horelick\, Ed Wiseman\, Ellen Schecter \n  \nButterfly in the Sky tells the story of the beloved PBS children’s series “Reading Rainbow\,” its iconic host LeVar Burton\, and the challenges its creators faced in cultivating a love of reading through television. Two seconds into the bubbling synth sounds of its theme song will have a child of the 1980s or ‘90s exclaiming “Reading Rainbow!” Such is the beloved nature of the classic children’s literary television show that introduced millions of kids to the wonder of books. \n  \nNot only did the series insist on having kids speak to kids about their favourite stories\, Reading Rainbow introduced the world to one of the most adored television hosts of all time\, LeVar Burton. Thanks to his direct\, non-patronizing and\, most importantly\, kind delivery\, Burton became a conduit to learning for children of every background – delving behind the pages to the people\, places\, and things each new story explored. \n  \n“If you’re a reader for life\, then you’re a learner for life. No one can hold sway over you or your mind if you can self-educate.” – LeVar Burton \n  \nAwards: 10 wins\, 2 nominations: \nWinner\, Best International Documentary\, Calgary International Film Festival\, 2022\nWinner\, Audience Award and Richard D.
