Rising indie sales company Glass House
Distribution has set September 12th as the launch of festival
audience fav “Sugar!”, starring multi-hyphenate musician, actress and Broadway
regular Alice Ripley and the long-tenured acting veteran Robert Clohessy (The Wolf of Wall Street).
Directed & edited by Shari Berman and
written by Leora Kalish, the movie showcases the singing & acting talents
of Tony Award Winner Ripley as a housewife and 50+ year old piano teacher who
decides to follow her lifelong dream of becoming a rock star, much to the
chagrin of her husband (SAG Award Winner Robert Clohessy) who’s running for
political office and her daughter (upcomer Leah Barker) who’s about to embark
for college.
Produced by Robert
Kalish, Blaze Kelly Coyle and Lauren Rayner P.G.A., the movie has been making
the festival circuit and has already picked up a dozen accolades along the way.
"We're all meant to dream. And it means the world to
me to have a story I dreamt up and eventually wrote on its way to distribution
with Glass House”, said Kalish. In addition to Glass House Distribution,
Sugar Film LLC and Silver Phoenix Entertainment round out the company credits
on the production.
“Sugar is a really moving film about the results of following your
dreams, and it’s inspiring to know that dreams really have no age limits,” said
Tom Malloy, President of Glass House Distribution.
