Inspired by the type of paranormal experiences too odd to categorize neatly, THE EVENTS OF THAT NIGHT, AS BEST I CAN REMEMBER falls somewhere between traditional genre conventions, under the multifaceted umbrella phenomena referred to by experiencers and researchers as High Strangeness.

Costuming and art direction were provided by local artists Amy Jarding and Cameron Stahlheim.

THE EVENTS OF THAT NIGHT, AS BEST I CAN REMEMBER will make its Sioux Falls premiere downtown at the State Theatre on Saturday, Oct 12.

The Saturday, Oct 12 event is also a fundraiser for The Transformation Project, an organization supporting and empowering trans individuals and their families across South Dakota.
