Dear friends who are Dying to Know,
We are excited to finally be launching our Indiegogo campaign for “Dying to Know: Ram Dass & Timothy Leary”. And YAHOO - your contributions are charitable tax deductible!
Through this campaign you can now get a preview digital stream of the feature length film instead of waiting until it is digitally available next year. It makes a great gift! We are also offering some other really cool rewards so check it out. Why are we doing a crowd fund now you ask? Head on over to: igg.me/at/dyingtoknow to find out and to check out all the perks!
With love & eternal gratitude- Gay

The bad news is that our run at the Royal is over but the good news is that we're still in Souther California and are pleased to announce that the Laemmle Monica will be adding us to their morning show schedule.
What better way to show your support for Americas independence by taking in this uniquely American cosmic buddy story!
