The Grand Theater and Salt Lake Film Society present a free screening of the film "Miss Evers' Boys", Tuesday, January 10, 2012 at 7:30 p.m. at the Grand Theatre.

The film was adapted from the stage play written by David Feldshuh and directed by Joseph Sargent. "Miss Evers' Boys" was nominated for eleven Emmy Awards and won in four categories, including Outstanding Made for Television Movie.
