Movies & More

October continues with wonderful community entertainment at the Fallon Theatre, where our stage is home to fantastic local talent and unforgettable shared experiences that bring Fallon together. This weekend, we’re thrilled and honored to host the talented performers of Performing Arts of Churchill County (PACC)!

There will be no movie showings this Friday or Saturday, October 17 and 18, as PACC presents Schoolhouse Rock Live! Jr. on our historic vaudeville stage. This energetic, family-friendly musical brings the beloved educational songs of Schoolhouse Rock to life with fun choreography, colorful costumes, and plenty of hometown talent. Tickets are just $10 and available now on PACC’s website. PACC is a local nonprofit dedicated to growing the performing arts in Fallon and Churchill County, offering opportunities for all ages to participate in acting, singing, music, and dance. We’re proud to support their mission and encourage everyone to come out and cheer on these amazing young performers!

Looking ahead to Oct. 24 and 25, spooky season fun returns to the Fallon Theatre! At 6 p.m., join us for Casper(1995), the heartwarming and mischievous tale of a friendly ghost who befriends a young girl after moving into a haunted mansion. Rated PG, it runs 1 hour and 40 minutes. Then at 7 p.m., get ready for Hocus Pocus (1993), the fan-favorite Halloween classic where three resurrected witches wreak hilarious havoc on modern-day Salem. Rated PG, it runs 1 hour and 36 minutes.

On Halloween night, Friday, Oct. 31, downtown Fallon transforms into a hub of spooky fun with the annual Maine Street Spooktacular from 4-6 p.m. During this safe, family-friendly event, Maine Street will close to traffic so kids and families can enjoy trick-or-treating at local businesses and community booths. With costumes, activities, and decorations filling the street, it’s one of Fallon’s favorite fall traditions! And speaking of decorations, they have a brand-new addition this year that’s sure to catch your eye… let’s just say something huge and pumpkin-shaped will be making an appearance downtown, so don’t miss the photo op! The organizing team is still welcoming sponsors and donations to help keep this community celebration thriving for years to come.

Then at 7 p.m., interested Transylvanians can cap off the night inside the Fallon Theatre with the interactive cult classic The Rocky Horror Picture Show! Admission is $10, and props are welcome to join in on the fun (just nothing wet or messy inside the theatre, please). Grab your friends, get ready to do the Time Warp, and close out Halloween with a wild and unforgettable evening of music, laughter, and audience participation.

Looking ahead to November, live entertainment continues to shine. On Friday, Nov. 14 at 7 p.m., Nashville comedian Lee Hardin returns to Fallon with his clever, clean stand-up. Tickets are $20, and last year’s show sold out fast, so don’t wait to grab yours.

As always, movie screenings at the Fallon Theatre are free to attend, and our concession stand is stocked with popcorn, candy, and great snacks. Want to rent the theatre for your own gathering or put a special message on our marquee? Give us a call at 775-423-6210 or email us at [email protected].
