The second annual Men In Black Birthday Bash (MIBBB) is adding a film event on Friday night, June 23, 2023, with an other-worldly theme that includes a Seattle comedy legend to this year’s lineup of events.
The MIBBB Film Party – which starts at 7 p.m. – is a curated, one-night mini-film festival devoted to short films that ask big questions about all manner of the unexplained and unresolved.
The inaugural MIBBB Film Party will include several locally-produced films, including the TV pilot “Fred Crisman,” created and directed by Bryan Schickley, a former intern for South King Media. The animated film is based on the life of a Tacoma man who claimed to have battled with aliens in WWll and is associated with multiple 20th Century conspiracy theories.
The voice of Crisman is performed by legendary Seattle-based comedian, actor, writer and voiceover talent Pat Cashman of “Almost Live!” and “Bill Nye the Science Guy” (and many other productions) fame. Schickley and Cashman will attend for a post-film discussion, followed by the world premiere of the “Fred Crisman” episode 2 trailer.
Additional films will be announced in June.
All films will be screened at Harper Studios in Des Moines.
The evening will include an optional pre-party and an after-party at Marina Mercantile, which is within walking distance from Harper Studios.
