Extras needed for a Movie Starring Ethan Bortnick 10 yo Piano Prodigy. Attend concert for Free

September 7, 2011

We’re excited to share a unique opportunity with our students, families, and friends! Grosse Pointe Music Academy has been invited to a free concert event in connection with the upcoming independent film Anything Is Possible, starring 10-year-old music prodigy Ethan Bortnick.

The concert will take place on Thursday, September 8th at 7:30 PM at the historic Redford Theatre. This performance will be filmed as part of the movie, giving attendees a chance to be part of a live audience in a feature film production!
Admission is free when you mention the code “IGA Approved” at the door.

About the Event and Film:
Ethan Bortnick, a gifted pianist and composer who began playing by ear at age three, stars in Anything Is Possible, a film that explores important themes like homelessness and adoption. Ethan, who has appeared on The Oprah Winfrey Show, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, and headlined in Las Vegas, cowrote and recorded music for the film and may even be scoring parts of it.

The movie is directed by Demetrius Navarro (E.R.) and executive produced by Pastor Marvin Miles. The project also features well-known actors such as Kym Whitley and Jonathan Bennett. Filming has taken place at several locations in Detroit, including Belle Isle.

Thursday’s concert will feature Ethan performing many of his own compositions. True to his signature performance style, the evening will include audience interaction, onstage participation, and a lively, family-friendly atmosphere. A portion of the proceeds from the film project will benefit charitable causes, including the Children’s Miracle Network.

Don’t miss this exciting opportunity to see a rising young talent in action — and to be a part of something truly special!

We hope to see many Grosse Pointe Music Academy families there, celebrating music and community together.

      Thank you for commenting. I wasn’t able to go see Ethan perform live but I hear he is amazing on the piano. I have seen a number of his youtube videos.
