CW: There's some good in this world, Mr. Frodo (Play adaptations, Youtube link) 

So, for those who didn't know: A high school in New Jersey, USA, adapted Ridley Scott's Alien (the first one) for their school play. They did this on the arts budget of an American high school. And somehow, lawyers and bean-counters managed to stay out of it long enough for the play to actually be performed, and for Scott to catch wind of it.

He gave the school $5,000 USD to fund an encore performance.

For the encore, Sigourney Fucking Weaver shows up and watches.

Now the whole play has been posted to Youtube, for free.
