Cinema Under the Stars - Shakespearean Spring Performances

Shakespearean & classic films presented in Tamanend Park 's Meadow Amphitheatre. Screening on alternating Saturday Evenings@Dusk. Rain Date- the following Saturday. Free to the public, donations accepted.

Show times take place at Dusk, which starts around 9:00pm but as the summer wanes, the times become earlier as the sun sets earlier, ending at around 6:00 pm. I suggest you get there a half an hour before dusk/dark. You are welcome to picnic in the Meadow while we set up for the film and you may end up getting a performance from the stage.

We have a concession stand where we sell canned soda and bagged chips, pretzels, popcorn and this year we tried ice pops & candy which worked well.

Here is a listing of some of the films we are thinking about for this season.  Nothing is set in stone, so if you would like to contribute your thoughts or have a film you would like to see shown, please communicate that via email to Arthur  - imagemindag@verizon.net or on Facebook.
