Movies & More - July 28 & 29

We have Illumination Studio’s 2023 animated comedy adventure, “Migration,” rated PG and sponsored by the Central Nevada Health District, kicking off our weekend lineup. Mack is an adventure-loathing duck who does not intend to leave his New England pond anytime soon. However, he is convinced by his more adventurous family to travel south for the winter, resulting in the vacation of a lifetime. This film plays at 6 p.m. on Friday and Saturday with a 1 hour and 23 minutes runtime.

For our 7 p.m. movie, we’re throwing it way back to 1939 with a John Wayne classic, “Stagecoach.” This story follows the adventures and perils of nine strangers traveling together across the rough frontier and also stars Claire Trevor and Andy Devine. It won two Oscars in 1940, including Best Music/Scoring, and Thomas Mitchell won for Best Actor in a Supporting Role. The runtime is 1 hour and 36 minutes.

Looking ahead, we’ll be hosting Acid Box, a Fallon-local band that blends hard rock, heavy metal, and punk with a blues influence, on July 20 at 7 p.m. They’ll be joined by additional local talent, Anabelle and the Desert Scrubs. The cover charge is $10.

We’ll be participating in the 10th Annual Community Reunion with a free concert on Friday, August 16, at 7 p.m. with River Rogue and theatre tours on Saturday, August 17, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

 Don’t miss our annual summer fundraising 5K fun run/walk on August 24, The Cantaloupe Canter. This traditional run/walk helps celebrate the Fallon Cantaloupe Festival and Country Fair, which will be held from August 23 through 25 this year. The event begins in front of the Indoor Pool at 333 Sheckler Rd. Early registration and sponsorship forms can be found on our website.
