Opening Night Party and Film

Breakfast with Scot

Is the heartfelt and happy story of what happens when an 11-year-old breaks down the door on a 30-something's closet.

Adapted from the novel by Michael Downing, this film is a must-see comedy for cynics and romantics alike!

Eric (Tom Cavanagh of the hit series ED, Scrubs, and Eli Stone) lives for all things hockey, manly and orderly. Now in his thirties, he's managed to turn his stint as an ex-Toronto Maple Leaf star player into a full-time gig as commentator for sports TV. But when Eric's boyfriend Sam (Ben Shenkman of Angels in America and Law & Order) announces that they're to become temporary guardians of a young boy, Eric's comfortable world shatters. Enter Scot - Ben's recently orphaned, swishy 11-year-old nephew - and Eric's mirror opposite. Freaked out by Scot's "joie de vivre," Eric and Sam gently nudge Scot away from scented hand cream, frilly socks and all things pink, towards a more acceptable pastime: hockey. But after Scot's disastrous first game, Eric begins to rethink the compromises he's made to be "accepted." Officially sanctioned by the NHL, Breakfast With Scot represents the first time a professional sports league has allowed its logo and uniforms to be used in a gay-themed movie.

Produced in Canada in 2008 and directed by Laurie Lynde, Breakfast with Scot is unabashedly romantic and feel-good - it will have the audience pulling out their hankies and shouting from the rooftops.
