Full Court Press

In keeping with the small size of our festival, we received a small amount of press coverage. Utah's arts scene is dominated by a few heavy hitters, like Ballet West and the Capitol Theater, but Stephanie did a good job of attracting press attention.

The line that surprised me was a Deseret News quote from Neil Mandt, the director of Last Stop for Paul.

Neil Mandt . . . is bringing his mock documentary "Last Stop for Paul" to the festival. Mandt said the event "is gaining notoriety as being one of the best-organized festivals in the country and has a reputation for screening top-quality films."

Thanks for the compliment, Neil.


Here's some of the press coverage:
