Cinematheque Series

In addition to our first-run Main Attractions, we present special programming throughout the year. Our Cinematheque series runs from September through May and presents a diverse collection of thematic series, newly restored classic prints, and films from local filmmakers. We’ve also added a Lively Arts section, which features live plays, operas, and a little ballet. These are mostly one-time events, scheduled for a specific date and time.

We hope that you enjoy this Fall’s offerings, which include a Special Effects series, a Kurosawa program, and plays from London’s Globe and National Theatres.
