Movies and More

A big thank you to everyone who joined us for our live music event with Sweet Decay last Friday! We’re always thrilled to use our nonprofit community center and historic vaudeville stage to showcase a variety of incredible new and returning talent. This has always been our vision for the space, and while we continue to offer regular movie screenings, we’re also excited for the stage to host a diverse range of music, theater, and community events.

We’re continuing with the Despicable Me franchise this weekend and will show Despicable Me 2 at 6 p.m. on Friday and Saturday. When a new criminal comes to town, the Anti-Villain League hires Gru to fight him off, but Gru already has his hands full raising his three little girls. Despicable Me 2 is rated PG with a runtime of 1 hour, 38 minutes.

Also showing Friday and Saturday is the 1982 Western drama The Man from Snowy River, starring Kirk Douglas, at 7 p.m. Set in 1880s Australia, the film follows young Jim Craig, who takes a job at the Harrison cattle ranch after his father dies, forcing him to grow up fast. The movie is rated PG and runs 1 hour and 42 minutes. Both films are free.

Looking ahead, our annual “Love Your Theatre” Valentine’s Fun Run/Walk 5K fundraiser is set for Feb. 8. The event begins at 9 a.m. on Maine Street in front of the theater. Pre-registration is $25 per person or $40 per couple. To guarantee an event T-shirt, please register by Jan. 20. Registration information is available on Facebook or our website, fallontheatre.com. Forms can also be picked up at Kent’s Supply Center.

In addition to free movies and special events, we offer our beautifully refurbished marquee for personalized event messages. To book a marquee message or reserve an auditorium for a party, leave us a message at 775-423-6210 or email [email protected].
