New Alice Gu documentary The Donut King opens online at Tull Family Theater today.


The documentary The Donut King opens online via Sewickley's Tull Family Thater on October 30. From the official site:
Ted’s story is one of fate, love, survival, hard knocks, and redemption. It’s the rags to riches story of a refugee escaping Cambodia, arriving in America in 1975 and building an unlikely multi-million-dollar empire baking America’s favorite pastry, the donut. Ted sponsored hundreds of visas for incoming refugees and helped them get on their feet teaching them the ways of the donut business. By 1979 he was living the American Dream. But, in life, great rise can come with great falls.
Tickets are available purchase online via the Tull Family Theater, with 50% of proceeds going there.
