 It's an expose' long in the making and it's coming to the Faulkner Planetarium this January. Secrets have been kept, but it's time to bring them to the light of day in
Secret Lives of Stars
. What's really going on with the likes of Kim, Kanye, and the rest of the Kardashian clan? Could Brangelina rise from the ashes if Brad and Angelina look to reconcile? Is Justin Bieber headed for the spotlight again? Who cares! We're going to blow the lid off of the secrets of the
real
stars, those points of distant light we see in the night sky, and Patrick Stewart is helping to pull back the curtain on what's really going down up above.
Secret Lives of Stars
reveals the hidden lives of some of those stars we see sprinkled across the heavens. Just what secrets are those stars hiding? Multiple star systems in intimate gravitational embraces? Stars so large that they dwarf our Sun? Bloated stars shedding layers of gas into the expanse of space? Stellar time bombs just waiting to go off at any time? Their secrets will be revealed! We have learned much of the nature of stars and it is time to take the wraps off of these secrets. Included with the Faulkner's presentation of Secret Lives of Stars is a live expose' of some of the secrets of stars we see from southern Idaho during the course of a year. This live expose', produced in house, will also take audiences to the southern hemisphere to look at a few stars that never rise into the Idaho skies. What secrets will be revealed? Audiences can discover them, for themselves, starting January 3
.
Secret Lives of Stars is a production of Evans and Sutherland, the maker of the Faulkner's fulldome video system, Digistar 5, and producer of fulldome show content, located in Salt Lake City, Utah.
The Faulkner Planetarium is Idaho's premiere planetarium boasting the largest dome, at 50 feet, in the state. Located in the Herrett Center for Arts and Science on the College of Southern Idaho campus in Twin Falls, the Faulkner has been serving the public for 21 years offering up high quality educational and entertaining programming in astronomy, meteorology, paleontology, history and a plethora of other topics. Admission prices are $6 adults, $5 seniors, $4 children ages 2 through 17; children under age 2 are admitted free.
For more information and to watch a trailer for Secret Lives of Stars, visit the Herrett Center's web page at

. Information can also be obtained by calling the museum at (208) 732-6655.

In his Herrett Forum lecture "Over the Rainbow," Brandon will share his experiences of growing up queer in the Magic Valley and discuss how he uses his art to explore the depths of LGBTQ repression with generous offerings of love and laughter to guide his audience to become blossoming souls of acceptance.
Brandon Scott Tesch is a Twin Falls hairdresser, performance artist, and a leading light in the local LGBTQ community. A native of the Magic Valley, Brandon experienced first-hand the stigma and prejudice of growing up gay in rural America. Mastering the art of styling hair and cultivating a loyal and loving clientele have been his professional focus over the last 17 years. Brandon also has a passion for the performing arts. When Brandon was 15, he discovered his alter ego, Ursula, a superhero version of himself that he uses to address the social stigmas and conflicts confronting the LGBTQ community. Last year, Brandon/Ursula created and performed Snake Snails and Puppy Dog Tails, a CSl Fine Arts Stage Door series production documenting Brandon's gender bending realization that his gender identity lies
"somewhere over the rainbow" -somewhere in the middle of the male-female gender spectrum. Brandon has also produced two benefit shows for Magic Valley Pride, delivered a spectacular performance in The Vagina Monologues, and contributed a presentation for Tedx Twin Falls.
