“White Rabbit Red Rabbit” at the Hatbox Theatre through Sept. 25 on Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30 p.m. and Sundays at 2 p.m. The play is an absurdist adventure that sits on the boundary of comedy and drama. The script itself is unknowable. Actors and audiences alike are encouraged not to talk about it at all. A new actor will perform each night.

The Alpinist (PG-13) Meet 23-year-old “free solo” mountain climber Marc-Andre Leclerc – a death-defying athlete you have probably never heard of. But the publicity-shy Leclerc is certainly recognized (and ranked #1 by his peers) for setting records on established climbs and taking unprecedented paths to other challenging summits. Documentation of his breathtaking adventures is vividly captured here (partly by high flying drones) and clearly shows that Leclerc loves what he is doing.
The Card Counter (R) Willian Tell (Oscar Issac) is a guilt-ridden ex-soldier and ex-con currently on the professional card playing circuit, parlaying a skill acquired in prison. His new acquaintances include a street smart casino worker (Tiffany Haddish) and a troubled college dropout (Tye Sheridan). An ominous figure from his past (Willem Dafoe) also surfaces, making Tell seek atonement for his behavior as a military interrogator.
