Movies & More This Weekend

Movies & More This Weekend

Your Community-Owned & Operated Fallon Theatre

Summer break is over, and live stand-up comedy is returning to our stage. Please join us this Friday, September 8, at 7:30 p.m. as international headliner Rick E'Elia kicks off a 4-pack of Fall comedy shows held monthly at the Fallon Theatre. Along with Rick are hilarious feature and founder of Dead Panda comedy, Luke Westberg, and returning as your host, the de facto Mayor of Fallon, Brian Lee. Tickets are $20 in advance (brianleecomedy.ticketleap.com) and $25 at the door.

We have a great movie lineup for you this weekend - for both young and old and all movies are free. Playing both Friday, September 8, and Saturday, September 9, at 6 p.m. is the 2017 animated adventure “Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie.” George and Harold are two overly imaginative pranksters who spend hours in a treehouse creating comic books. When their mean principal threatens to separate them into different classes, the mischievous boys accidentally hypnotize him into thinking he's a ridiculously enthusiastic, incredibly dimwitted superhero named Captain Underpants. Voices provided by Kevin Hart, Thomas Middleditch, and Ed Helms.

Our second feature, only on Saturday evening, starting at 7 p.m., is the 1937 original “A Star is Born.” When a young actress arrives in Hollywood with hopes of stardom, a chance encounter places her under the wing of older actor Norman Maine. She co-stars with Norman in a major motion picture, but his success is fading even as her career begins. After the couple marries, her fame continues to grow, but Norman descends into alcoholism, and she must decide between pursuing her dream and caring for him. Starring Janet Gaynor, Fredric March, and Adolphe Menjou.

Please mark your calendar for September 23 as the Reno-based Americana band Bourgeois Gypsies brings their great music to our historic stage. The concert starts at 7 p.m. and tickets are $10.
