Maiden Alley Cinema and Yeiser Art Center are co-hosting a special screening of WHO IS STAN SMITH? to raise money for the local organization, Harrison Street Serves, which combines education and tennis as part of a national program started by Arthur Ashe. Harrison Street Serves is an umbrella organization under the Paducah Tennis Association. Ticket sales will go to support the organization. Wear your Stan Smith tennis shoes to the event to win a prize!

Tickets are $15 and include a free small popcorn or soda.

More than the namesake of one of the most iconic sneakers, Stan Smith has lived a champion’s life on and off the tennis court. Chronicling his rise from collegiate superstar to World No.1 and beyond, Smith blazed new paths for athletes, both as a fashion icon and a humanitarian. Complete with intimate first-person accounts and dynamic archival materials, Danny Lee’s film brings us closer to the man behind the shoe.

About the filmmakers:

Writer Colby Holt was born and raised in Paducah-- he co-directed the film with his husband Sam Probst who he considers an honorary Paducahan. They decided to shoot the film entirely in Paducah because of Kentucky's attractive Film Tax Credit program. The production initially almost shot in Georgia, but Holt wanted to bring the film here to contribute to the local economy. You'll recognize many familiar local shooting locations. Paducah's own Creatures Of Habit created every costume for the film, with Jack & Natalya Cody serving as Costume Department Heads. They also felt Paducah served as a perfect setting for the Southern Gothic tone, with its historic architecture and lush summer landscape. The film was shot over 19 days in June/July of 2022. Colby & Sam live in Chicago with their cat Agadore Spartacus.
