Information about the March 27 benefit show and art auction can be found at the link below. This is not a program of Landmark Theatres. We have been getting questions about it, so here it is for you to explore: Warehouse Live and the River Oaks Theatre Rocky Horror Picture Show Shadowcast, CHAOS, will present a variety show and benefit on March 27, which will raise money to help ensure that the Historic River Oaks Theatre does not become yet another lost Houston icon. Find incredible Houston rarities and art in the silent auction and take in some of Houston's finest performances during the 3-hour Benefit Show. The show is hosted by local burlesque MC Zach Deville and stars various local acts and talent from Houston's burlesque, comedy, and musical worlds. Doors open at 7:00 PM.

Dear Loyal Supporters:
Regrettably, after 45 years of bringing Houston the best of art house cinema, today is Landmark Theatre's last day of operation at the River Oaks Theatre. We have been so incredibly fortunate to have made movie memories with you all, from the early days of classics and cult favorites to the Oscar contenders and those raucous late night audience participation staples THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW and THE ROOM.

Thank you for being a friend. Thank you for sharing your personal connections to the River Oaks over this past month. We agree that movie theaters are sacred spaces and we hope that the Friends of River Oaks Theatre can find a way to preserve and protect this special place that has brought so much to the cultural landscape of Houston.

It isn't goodbye. In the wisdom of NOMADLAND, we'll see you down the road. When Landmark lands in a new location, if you are on our email list, you better believe that you will hear from us. You can join our email list here: http://filmclub.landmarktheatres.com/

Paul Serwitz
