La Mirada Theatre for the Performing Arts will present the fourth High Definition screening of this season's National Theatre Live series, TRAVELLING LIGHT, written by Nicholas Wright and directed by National Theatre's Nicholas Hytner on SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 19 at 2pm at La Mirada Theatre for the Performing Arts, 14900 La Mirada Blvd. in La Mirada.

Travelling Light in HD is described as 'a funny and fascinating tribute to the Eastern European immigrants who became major players in Hollywood's golden age, Nicholas Wright's new play imagines the birth of silent film in a remote Eastern European village at the turn of the century.'

In a remote village in Eastern Europe, around 1900, the young Motl Mendl is entranced by the flickering silent images on his father's cinematograph. He soon stumbles on a revolutionary way of story-telling - and forty years later, he's become a famous American film director.
