The Gold Rush | November 14th | 10:30am
$12.50

COMEDY AT THE END OF THE WORLD!

Charlie Chaplin’s THE GOLD RUSH follows the Little Tramp to the Klondike in a delightful blend of comedy and pathos. Featuring unforgettable scenes like the dancing rolls and the boiled shoe, it remains one of silent cinema’s warmest, funniest, and most enduring masterpieces—even after 101 years!

Doors open at 10am with coffee and pastries available for purchase and our feature presentation starting at 10:30am.

All screenings are located at the Howard Conn Fine Arts Center and the theater entrance is Door 3 off of Nicollet Ave (around the corner from the main parking area). Free parking is available anywhere in the Plymouth Congregation Church parking lot.

The Lion in Winter | December 17th | Thursday Night @ 7pm
$12.50

"OF COURSE HE HAS A KNIFE. HE ALWAYS HAS A KNIFE. WE ALL HAVE KNIVES.
IT'S 1183 AND WE'RE BARBARIANS. "

THE LION IN WINTER is a brilliantly taut battle of wills between kings, queens, and heirs. Set during Christmas at the court of King Henry II, the film follows the king, his imprisoned wife Eleanor of Aquitaine, and their scheming sons as they battle over succession and influence. Peter O’Toole and Katharine Hepburn lead an extraordinary cast in this witty, fiercely intelligent drama of family rivalry, ambition, and power.

This Special Thursday Night Presentation will begin at 7pm with doors opening at 6:30pm.

All screenings are located at the Howard Conn Fine Arts Center and the theater entrance is Door 3 off of Nicollet Ave (around the corner from the main parking area). Free parking is available anywhere in the Plymouth Congregation Church parking lot.
