Join us for a very special screening and New Hampshire premiere of the documentary, Billy Preston: That’s The Way God Planned It (2026), an exhilarating film about the legendary GRAMMY-winning musician whose signature sound shaped the work of The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Ray Charles, Sly Stone, Aretha Franklin, and countless others. Featuring never-before-seen archival footage, studio outtakes, and rare photos, acclaimed director Paris Barclay interweaves the complicated aspects of this artist’s extraordinary life and musical career. A private man who turned to drugs to dull the pain of personal trauma, his poignant story unfolds through insights from Billy Porter, Eric Clapton, and Ringo Starr, complemented by rare footage and an original score by Robert Glasper.
