We will be showing, Saving Mr. Banks, on Friday April 25 at 6 p.m. This is a fascinating look at the circuitous “collaborative” process Walt Disney, his creative team, and author P.L. Travers engaged in in bringing the character Mary Poppins to life on the big screen in the early 1960s. It is rated PG-13 so we will not allow children under the age of 13 in to view the movie without their parents/guardians. We provide the popcorn so bring the family and your own beverage and see this great movie.
We are open Monday, Wednesday and Friday 12pm to 8pm, Tuesday and Thursday 10am to 8pm and Saturday 10am to 4pm.
