Rae Dawn Chong & NH Film Festival on the Morning Show.. Show

Psyched to talk to Rae Dawn Chong this morning on the CYY Morning Show.. Show. Check out her great resume of clips and find out why she's in Portsmouth NH this weekend. 

What a life for Rae Dawn Chong! She's lived in Vancouver, LA and now New England, she grew up around Arnold Schwarzenegger/Motown/Jimi Hendrix and all that's Hollywood, she's made movies we'll watch forever (see below), she's appeared in classic TV series and of course her dad Tommy Chong (half of Cheech & Chong) is a pretty chill, far out dude too.

This week at the NH FILM FESTIVAL (click to find out more) Rae will unveil The Celebrant; which she wrote, directed, produced AND acted in. See the trailer below...

If you make movies, act, write, or just watch... you should come out to the 13th Annual NH Film Festival in Portsmouth this weekend. It's open to everyone! Rae will be there as well as Mike O'Malley (comedian, star of "Yes Dear"), Flea from the Red Hot Chilli Peppers (who acted in a new movie), director Jason Reitman (Juno, Up In The Air) and much more. Rae will be involved in a comedy panel and showing her new movie, The Celebrant and she's psyched to meet folks at the event so if you see her, say hey!
