Fireside Cinema Night Presents: Thank You 5
Special Independent Film Screening & Live Filmmaker Q&A
Join us for a special edition of Fireside Cinema Night at Vista West Ranch as we welcome filmmaker Reid Estreicher for an exclusive screening of the award-winning independent feature film Thank You 5.
This unique Texas Hill Country event combines independent cinema, filmmaker storytelling, community conversation, and a beautiful venue experience inside the climate-controlled Vista West Ranch barn.
About the Film
Thank You 5 is an award-winning comedy-drama that follows a dysfunctional theater company racing toward opening night as oversized egos, impossible personalities, and backstage chaos threaten to derail both the show and the fragile dreamers trying to bring it to life.
Filled with humor, heart, creativity, and unforgettable characters, the film offers an entertaining behind-the-scenes look at the passion and perseverance required to create meaningful art.
Meet Filmmaker Reid Estreicher
Following the screening, guests will enjoy a live filmmaker talkback and audience Q&A with Reid Estreicher.
Reid is a filmmaker, producer, performer, SAG actor, and co-founder of Two Ties Productions. A graduate of The Second City Conservatory and Writers Conservatory programs, Reid has spent more than two decades working in film, television, comedy, voiceover, and live entertainment.
Today, Reid continues to champion independent artists and storytellers while producing original content and hosting Local Sets ATX, a live music discovery platform showcasing emerging musicians throughout Central Texas.
