The Healing WELL Fundraiser: Figaro Up, Figaro Down

Celebrating The Healing WELL’s annual fundraiser at the Roxie, “The Power of the Second Act.” Featuring panel discussion after the film with director Javid Soriano and Tim Blevins! A Juilliard-trained baritone, Tim Blevins performed on the world’s most prestigious opera stages, tackling challenging roles with skill and power. A rare Black presence in a white-dominated art form, he rose to fame—but lost everything to addiction: his career, family, and home, leaving him unhoused in the Tenderloin. After decades in despair, Blevins takes control of his destiny, staging a comeback that restores not only his place on stage but also his role in his family’s life. Filmed with care and grace, this San Francisco-set tale of fame, loss, and redemption illuminates a life as remarkable as the operas he mastered. —Bedatri Choudhury Note films start right at the listed showtime.
