Theater Hosts Film & Panel on Aging
Q. Is it possible to live forever? A. Maybe.
On Thursday evening, Feb. 11 at 6:30 p.m., Hamilton Theater presents the premiere of To Age or Not To Age, the ground breaking film that argues that science's ability to halt virtually all degenerative infirmities related to aging is here now, and that there is no reason why life expectancy shouldn't exponentially lengthen, beginning immediately.
After the screening, filmmaker Robert Kane Pappas will lead a panel discussion featuring three renowned experts in the field of molecular biology and aging: Dr. Leaonard Guarante from M.I.T., Aubrey de Gray from The Methuselah Foundation and Dr. Robert Butler, Pulitzer Prize winning author of Why Survive? and founding director of the National Institute on Aging.
The discussion will take place in New York's Leonard Nimoy Thalia Theater. Audience members in Hamilton Theater will be able to participate by Twitter.
The average life span in 1900 was 42. By 2000, it was over 80. Scientific advances suggest not only that the life span will continue to expand, but it can happen now. The film pries open the complex politics, ethics and procedures of the scientific/medical establishments.
Tickets are $7.50 and may be purchased in advance at the theater or by phone at 824-8210. Seating may be limited.
