Thank you for making us The Hamilton Spectator Readers' Choice Diamond Winner (Top Prize) for Best Movie Theatre in Hamilton! 

Happy Holidays from all of us at the Playhouse! We are closed on the 24th & 25th. We open again on Boxing Day showing movies all day, every day over the Christmas break. We hope you can make it to the cinema for some holiday entertainment!

Opening this Friday at the Playhouse is the highly-acclaimed Honey Boy, a hit with critics and audiences alike. The film is an autobiographical look into the early life and career of actor Shia LaBeouf and his deeply problematic relationship with his father. Shia wrote the film himself and stars in it as his own father, providing the film with one of its "three towering performances that make it one of the best films of the year." (Lucas Hedges and and Noah Jupe provide the other two.)

Studio Ghibli returns this week with the iconic, Kiki's Delivery Service on Saturday (Japanese with english subtitles) and on Monday (English dub) with advance tickets on-sale now! "Kiki's Delivery Service takes pride of place in Miyazaki's exceptional body of work" - Empire

Continuing at the Playhouse are two films with some of the most exceptional acting you'll see all year: The Two Popes (recently nominated for four Golden Globe Awards) and The Lighthouse (Dafoe & Pattinson are terrific and the film is unforgettable.)

On Boxing Day we open with screenings of Harriet (Harriet Tubman, a real-life superhero!) Judy, the acclaimed bio-pic on the iconic Judy Garland and Jojo Rabbit!

"In a dazzling high-wire act as actor and screenwriter, LaBeouf lets loose on his own life as a child star and his relationship with his loose-cannon dad, a role he plays himself in a live-wire performance that jumps off the screen." - Rolling Stone

Must end January 3. Based on a screenplay written by Shia LaBeouf while in a rehabilitation program, Honey Boy is a fictionalized drama based on LaBeouf’s life growing up in the spotlight.

No screenings currently scheduled.

"What makes "The Two Popes" so delightful, other than the very funny script, is watching two seasoned actors play off each other. Both Hopkins and Pryce illustrate what the craft of acting is really about." - TheWrap

Nominated for 4 Golden Globe Awards (Best Picture, Actor, Supporting Actor, Screenplay). "Anchored by two outstanding performances from Anthony Hopkins and Jonathan Pryce, the film is a triumph of writing as well as unostentatious filmmaking.

"Renée Zellweger is over the rainbow and out of this world as Judy Garland in "Judy," a sweet, full-hearted tribute to the beloved screen legend's final days." - Detroit News

Nominated! Golden Globe (Best Actress) “Judy isn’t a biopic; it takes place over only a few months, in the final year of Judy Garland’s life. Broke, divorced and deeply in debt in 1968, Garland reluctantly agreed to leave her children and travel to London to perform a series of concerts at a swanky nightclub.
