March 28: Skate Movie Night: Xanadu
Join us for Skate Movie Night!
This month's film is Xanadu, a 1980 musical fantasy film starring Olivia Newton-John, Michael Beck, and Gene Kelly, about a struggling artist who, after meeting a roller skating muse, becomes business partners with a down-on-his-luck musician-turned-construction mogul, and they become inspired to open a roller disco/nightclub called Xanadu.
Watch the film trailer on YouTube!
We will screen the movie at the skate shop on March 28 from 6pm-8pm. It's free and open to all ages. The film is rated PG.
Complimentary popcorn and bottled water will be available; BYO snacks. There will be two benches to sit on, and an area rug up front to lay on if you prefer. You can also bring your own comfy chair. Space is limited; come early to reserve your spot.
Future films and shows will range from lighthearted fantasies to serious documentaries, all with a connection to skating. We hope that you can join us!
