About this Event
Join Spotlight Delaware and Theatre N for a special Wilmington screening of Spotlight, the Academy Award–winning film about the Boston Globe reporters who uncovered a widespread scandal and cover-up in the Catholic Church.
Directed by Tom McCarthy, Spotlight stars Michael Keaton, Mark Ruffalo, Rachel McAdams and Liev Schreiber. It follows the Globe’s investigative team as they pursue a story that powerful institutions had kept hidden. Spotlight is a gripping film about the work, persistence and public importance of investigative journalism.
Before the movie, Spotlight Delaware CEO Allison Taylor Levine will sit down with COO Matt Sullivan for a short conversation about the film and the idea it inspired: After seeing the original Spotlight reporting team talk about their work in 2015, Allison made herself a promise. If she ever had the chance to start a nonprofit newsroom, she would call it "Spotlight." Today, Spotlight Delaware carries that name and brings independent, in-depth local journalism to communities across the First State.
This Eventbrite page is for Spotlight Delaware members to purchase tickets during an exclusive presale. After the presale, tickets for the general public will be available through Theatre N’s website.
Doors open at 6 p.m., with the interview beginning at 6:30. The film is expected to start between 6:45 and 7 p.m. Tickets are $25 and support Spotlight Delaware’s nonprofit journalism.
Whether you love great movies, care about the future of local news, or want to hear how one film helped inspire a newsroom, spend the evening with us at Theatre N in Wilmington.
