The Mandalorian and Grogu continues on screen at our nonprofit theater for another week! Tickets are available now at hiwaytheater.org

Set in the Star Wars universe and following the events of the wildly popular streaming series. The Mandalorian bounty hunter, Din Djarin (Pedro Pascal), is enlisted by a fledgling New Republic to clean up the remnants of the fallen evil Empire. Aiding Mando in this fight is his young force-sensitive apprentice Grogu (a.k.a. Baby Yoda). A rip-roaring space adventure that evokes the classic movie serials that Star Wars was originally based on, THE MANDALORIAN AND GROGU is a true big screen experience that can’t be missed! Also starring Sigourney Weaver, Jeremy Allen White and even Martin Scorsese.

Remember those films that you watched on late-night cable in your youth? If so, join us for our new monthly series — CULT CINEMA CLUB, which highlights essential and impactful genre classics! This new series continues on June 27th with BUT I’M A CHEERLEADER! Tickets are available now at hiwaytheater.org/cult

Our friends from Human Robot Jenkintown will join us in the lobby to sell beer during the show!

𝗔𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗠𝗼𝘃𝗶𝗲: Natasha Lyonne plays Megan, a typical all-American cheerleader who excels in school and is dating a football player. However, her lack of enthusiasm for kissing her boyfriend, interest in vegetarianism and Melissa Etheridge, and habit of staring at her fellow cheerleaders cause her parents to suspect their daughter may be a le***an. When Megan’s sent to a “conversion therapy” camp, she learns to embrace who she is with the help of love interest Graham (Clea DuVall). This biting satire skewering homophobia remains as relevant – and highly entertaining – as it was on its first release in the late ‘90s.

Our Monthly Horror at the Hiway Series continues on June 12th with a 35mm screening of A NIGHTMARE ON ELM ST 5: THE DREAM CHILD. Tickets are available now at hiwaytheater.org/horror

Our friends from will be in the lobby selling beer for you to enjoy during the show & your stub will score you $6 drafts all night.

It’s a boy! After having defeated eternal dream stalker Freddy Krueger, a pregnant Alice Johnson finds that he is invading the dreams of her unborn child in order to gain access to a new crop of victims. Star Robert Englund is at his most cartoonish in this final entry of The Dream Trilogy (films 3-5). Though initially panned for many years, the film has developed a new appreciation with its gothic and surreal dreamscapes, along with more mature themes of motherhood and trauma.
