Midnight Movie

ComedyCity and De Pere Cinema Cafe have teamed up to present De Pere's first Midnight Movie series!  For just $3, come and see a classic, campy, cult and/or B movie with friends and fellow movie lovers on the first Friday of every month.

Come and enjoy a cheap and fun film, with ComedyCity troupe members in the audience to enhance the experience!

This month's flick is "The Most Dangerous Game" - Fay Wray stars in this 1932 classic where an insane hunter arranges for a ship to be wrecked on an island where he can indulge in the sport of hunting and killing of the passengers.

"Success Is Not An Option"
Friday, September 14th

Success Is Not An Option

Mike Schmidt doesn't want to be "That Guy" but sadly, he might not have a choice.

Every week on his brutally funny podcast, "The 40 Year Old Boy," Mike fights a war between the man he is and the man he wants to be. Talking at the speed of his head, he tells stories of a life suspended somewhere between cautionary tale and cruel joke.

Now, Mike brings this verbal mosh pit to Venture Theatre for one night onstage. In a lifetime of bad decisions, let's hope this doesn't turn out to be his worst.
 
8:00pm Friday, September 14th

Tickets are $20 ($21.69 w/ fees)
 
Snacks & Beverages available
