FREE SCREENING- Marlee Matlin: Not Alone Anymore from American Masters

On Friday, August 28th, from 5 PM-7 PM, PBS Fort Wayne, in partnership with The League, will be hosting a special free screening of "Marlee Matlin: Not Alone Anymore" from "American Masters" at Carroll High School, located at 3701 Carroll Road, Fort Wayne, IN. For more than 30 years, Marlee Matlin has captivated audiences on stage and screen. She won an Academy Award for her acclaimed performance in 1986’s "Children of A Lesser God," which made her the youngest Oscar winner to receive the Best Actress award and the first Deaf actor to ever win an Oscar. Since then, she has given memorable film and television performances, including those in "The West Wing," "The Practice" and the Academy Award-winning film "CODA." Matlin shares her story in her native American Sign Language in this American Masters special.

To come to the screening, go to the main entrance at Carroll High School, Door 32. The small auditorium where the screening will be held is just inside the main entrance. Please note that the auditorium slopes down to the stage, which is where the screen is. It is wheelchair-accessible with individual folding-type theater seats.
This screening is brought to you local by PBS Fort Wayne in partnership with The League, plus Relay Indiana,  The Indiana Association Of The Deaf and the Northeast Indiana Deaf Awareness Council.
