Art House Productions presentsThe Surprise Tour: The First & Last New Jersey Screening
An Annual April Fool’s Day Tradition
The Best Thing Ever is a "Legendary punk performance art ensemble" composed of Noah Britton, Alex Billig, and Jen Page. Their tours included 2006's The Bathoom Tour where the band performed exclusively in bathrooms around New England, 2010’s Animals Tour, where the band performed exclusively for animals at venues including the Prospect Park Zoo, the New York City Aquarium, and BARCC dog shelter in Brooklyn, NY, and 2007’s Surprise Tour, a three-week trek across the U.S., consisting entirely of unplanned concerts at venues including Waffle House, The Barbed Wire Museum, and a hair salon.
This is not an April’s Fool’s joke. It is being screened on April Fool’s day because the film is in the spirit of April Fool’s Day. THIS WILL BE THE ONLY NEW JERSEY SCREENING EVER! Meet the filmmaker and join the band for a virtual Q&A right after the screening.
The complete 74 minute documentary, THE SURPRISE TOUR, screens every April 1 in a different U.S. state. States covered so far are New York, Massachusetts, Pennslyvania, Washington, Ohio, Canada, Colorado, California, Rhode Island, Hawaii, New Mexico, North Dakota, Alaska, Montana, and Missouri. Jeffrey Lewis provided narration throughout the documentary, which was partially edited by Benny Safdie. The film is not viewable any other time, any other way.
The movie is funny, beautiful, and sad.
