The Love the Glove Film Series’ Animation Celebration continues with the autobiographical Persepolis, based on the eponymous award-winning graphic novel by Marjane Satrapi, about a family’s resilience under political duress and uncertainty.

In 1970s Iran, Marjane 'Marji' Satrapi watches events through her young eyes and her idealistic family of a long dream being fulfilled of the hated Shah's defeat in the Iranian Revolution of 1979. However as Marji grows up, she witnesses first hand how the new Iran, now ruled by Islamic fundamentalists, has become a repressive tyranny on its own. With Marji dangerously refusing to remain silent at this injustice, her parents send her abroad to Vienna to study for a better life. However, this change proves an equally difficult trial with the young woman finding herself in a different culture loaded with abrasive characters and profound disappointments that deeply trouble her. Even when she returns home, Marji finds that both she and homeland have changed too much and the young woman and her loving family must decide where she truly belongs.

Buckle up, put it in gear, and enjoy the ride with NY Capital Region’s authentic sounding Grateful Dead tribute band, The Wheel as they put their driving spin on the music you love and enjoy.

“The Wheel brings a big, danceable groove to the party, driven by the deep pocket of rhythm guitarist and bandleader Andy Morse, bassist Dave Pallas, drummer Bob McKeon and percussionist Pete Andriakos. They provide an unshakable foundation over which lead guitarist Bryan Gautie and keyboardist Kenny Schneidman weave solo after evocative solo together with virtuosity and taste.  Yet they are also capable of complex, interwoven conversations that display the nuance and dynamic range of the Dead’s music in quieter, more blissful passages. Vocally, The Wheel possesses a diverse blend of styles, from Morse’s smooth, heartfelt delivery, Schneidman’s full-throated soul, and Bryan Gautie’s Jerry Garcia-like tenderness.” - Nippertown

The Glove Theatre and Gloversville Class of 2026 are teaming up for a delicious night of pie….and murder with their creative fundraiser production of Michael Druce’s Murder at the Pie Auction, featuring members of the Gloversville Board of Education and beyond! Join us for a night of hilarity, crime, and the chance to win delicious pies baked by your local and family favorites!

The audience becomes part of the pie auction in this hysterical comedy written specifically for dinner theatre.  After years of trying unsuccessfully, the small town of Mynute, Alaska, finally lands the famous Mother Mabel’s Pie Baking Competition — but it was all due to a typo mistaking Mynute for Minot!  The contest looks to be a disaster with no media or publicity.  To add to the tension, one of the contestants is writing a tell-all book about the seamy side of competitive pie baking.  Making matters even worse, just hours before the competition begins, the pie judge goes missing.  When he turns up dead while the audience is bidding for the pies, the characters turn on each other as they try to figure out who committed the murder.

In the mid-1970's, a homely, friendless Australian girl of 8 picks a name out of a Manhattan phone book and writes to him; she includes a chocolate bar. She's Mary Dinkle, the only child of an alcoholic mother and a distracted father. He's Max Horowitz, an overweight man with Asperger's, living alone in New York. He writes back, with chocolate. Thus begins a 20-year correspondence, interrupted by a stay in an asylum and a few misunderstandings. Mary falls in love with a neighbor, saves money to have a birthmark removed and deals with loss. Max has a friendship with a neighbor, tries to control his weight, and finally gets the dream job. Will the two ever meet face to face?

Little Saints are an original band born in Saratoga Springs, NY. The three-piece, genre-bending combo is made up of singer/songwriter Natalie Santini, guitarist Andy Arnold, and bassist Ian Dingman. The band was founded by Natalie and Andy who- after having met in early 2019- decided to team up to work on melding Natalie’s devotion to powerfully agile singing, and honest, mature songwriting with Andy’s love for raw-yet-refined guitar playing. Little Saints draws on influences from artists like Brandi Carlile, Stevie Wonder, and the Tedeschi Trucks Band as well as peers around them in their musical environment to craft a style they can call their own somewhere between Americana, Indie-Folk, and Modern Soul. Little Saints leans on their collective 50 years of experience in an aim to deliver a genuine musical experience filled with harrowing lyrics and mature, refined instrumentation

The Glove Theatre and The Johnstown DAR Chapter is extending an invitation to an event celebrating the historical significance of the film "Drums Along the Mohawk," which has deep roots in the local area. This film, directed by John Ford and released in 1939, is an American historical drama that portrays the life of settlers in the New York frontier during the American Revolution. The movie's premiere was notably held in Gloversville, highlighting its connection to the region. The DAR Chapter's event aims to honor this piece of cinematic history that was filmed in the surrounding area, offering a chance to reflect on the local heritage and the film's contribution to preserving American history. There will also be a costume exhibit, highlighting Revolutionary War-era clothing, accessories, and more.

The DAR, dedicated to promoting patriotism, preserving American history, and securing America's future through education, finds a perfect alignment with the themes of the film, making this event not only a celebration but also an educational opportunity. The film's portrayal of the settlers' experiences, their challenges, and the revolutionary spirit of the era serves as a reminder of the enduring values that the DAR upholds.

Drums Along the Mohawk is a 1939 American historical drama western film based upon a 1936 novel of the same name by American author, Walter D. Edmonds, was directed by John Ford, and had its world premiere screening at The Glove Theatre in 1939.

Henry Fonda and Claudette Colbert portray settlers on the New York frontier during the American Revolution. The couple experiences British, Tory, and Native American attacks on their farm before the Revolution ends and peace is restored. In Revolutionary America, Gil Martin takes his new wife Lana back to his farm in upstate New York. The area is remote and a distance from the fort but they are happy living in their one room cabin. With the declaration of independence, the settlers soon find themselves at war with the British and their Indian allies. Their farm is burned out and the Martins take work with Sarah McKlennar. The war continues however as the Martins try to make a new life.

Edmonds based the novel on a number of historic figures who lived in the valley. The film—Ford's first Technicolor feature—was well received. It became a major box-office success and was nominated for one Academy Award. Drums… highlights many local communities, including Deerfield, Oneida, and Fort Dayton, where the film’s famous battle scene takes place.
