Historic Fox Theatre Restorations will be screening “Cabaret,” the next film in its 2016 Film Series, at 2 and 7 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 27, at the Fox Theater in downtown Centralia.
The 1972 musical drama is set in Berlin in 1931. American cabaret singer Sally Bowles (Liza Minnelli) meets British academic Brian Roberts (Michael York), who is finishing his university studies.
Despite Brian's confusion over his sexuality, the pair become lovers, but the arrival of the wealthy and decadent playboy Maximilian von Heune (Helmut Griem) complicates matters for them both.
This love triangle plays out against the rise of the Nazi party and the collapse of the Weimar Republic. The movie is rated PG with some adult themes.
Admission for the movie is $10 per person, $8 for members, and $25 per family (three to four persons).
The event includes some giveaways, including a weekend package from McMenamins Olympic Club and a chain saw case pack from the Power Shop at each showing.
Come as you are or come as a star for a free photo with Selfie Bandits.
Across the street, at The Station Coffee Bar & Bistro, will be the Oscar Eve bash from 4-7 pm.
Presale tickets for the movie are available on Brown Paper Tickets at http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/2489911, at Book ‘n’ Brush in Chehalis, and Holley’s Place, HUBBUB, Santa Lucia Coffee and PostNet in Centralia.
