The California Surf Museum presents The Shape of Things: The Dick Brewer Story, with special guests Jeff Hakman, Jericho Poppler, Alan Sarlo and Gary Linden, and Director Bob Campi, all who appear in the film.

This documentary chronicles the colorful and controversial legendary surfboard designer Dick Brewer. Arguably the most influential surfboard shaper of the 1960s and 1970s, Dick Brewer has often been called the father of the modern-day surfboard. He changed the design of surfing equipment not once, not twice, but three times in his 50-year career as a trailblazer, with all the notorious tales that have until now remained just rumored legends.

Directed and edited with the skill of a lifelong cinematographer Bob Campi, this biopic captures the rise, fall, and ultimate redemption of visionary who changed the world of surfing forever, a trailblazer throughout his career. The filmmakers tell his story with phenomenal cinematography and archival footage coupled with a retro soundtrack, that will take you back to the era where surfers and board designers redefined what riding a wave could be.

Director: Bob Campi
Screenwriter: Jim Kempton (Executive Director, California Surf Museum)

In a comical retelling of “The Princess and the Pea,” a far-away kingdom struggles against a marriage ban by the overbearing Queen Aggravain. Everyone is forbidden to marry until her grown-ish son, Prince Dauntless, marries a suitable princess. She also happens to reject every eligible princess through a series of elaborate royalty tests, leaving the kingdom’s residents romantically frustrated. Lady Larken soon convinces her knight and beau, Sir Harry, to venture out in search of a royal bachelorette for Dauntless so the couple can wed. Sir Harry returns with Princess Winnifred the Woebegone, a noblewoman of the swamp whose freewheeling displays of strength clash with the Queen’s image of feminine propriety. Winnifred instantly catches the attention of Prince Dauntless. Meanwhile, the Queen devises another elaborate royalty test – the one with 20 downy mattresses and one lousy pea – to stop Winnifred and DauntLess from being together. The townspeople dare to uncover the test before yet another match is doomed, and Winnifred is able to pass the Queen’s supposedly impassable sensitivity test.  Mary Rodger’s classic Once Upon a Mattress is a hilarious musical that is sure to delight the entire family!
