THURSDAY July 8th at 7pm: TIME CAPSEL

  

"Tell us your story Capsel"
TIME CAPSEL
-- Special 90 minute presentation --

Perhaps it is her solitude, perhaps it is the grandiose nature of her true purpose. Perhaps it is her perspective on both our history and our future. From Thylacine Dreams, this is a tale of a woman named Capsel who travels through time -- not by breaking the speed of light or anything like that -- but by entering a stasis pod at regular intervals. Each entry is a one-way journey, and each time she emerges she finds that the world is in a very different place. We don’t know why she is doing this at first, but Capsel’s true purpose is eventually revealed, and it is quite grand indeed.

Special Guest Appearance by mystery storyteller!
