The Alamo Drafthouse at 60 Seaport Boulevard #315 will be hosting a series of movie parties this month in Boston and you can expect the crowd to be a lively bunch.
The lineup, which you can browse in full right here, is looking stocked—but we'd be remiss not to mention a few highlights.
If wearing a shark hat while holding a beverage in a yellow floatie sounds like a fun moviegoing experience, then secure tickets to screening of the 1975 classic, Jaws, on May 26 at 3:30pm or 7pm. What better way is there to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Steven Spielberg iconic masterpiece, after all?
Those scared off by classic thrillers can instead opt to catch Britney Spears light up the screen in Crossroads, a coming-of-age story that will be playing at the theater on May 21 at 7pm. You'll get to sing along with a crowd of new friends while watching and leave with a bunch of fun tchotchkes—a globe keychain, feather earrings and a butterfly bandana, all reminiscent of the movie's props—that will be given out during the screen.
Have kids? Plenty of family-friendly options are on the schedule as well, including The Wiz Re-Release, showing on May 17; How to Train Your Dragon, playing on June 12; and National Theatre Live: The Importance of Being Earnest, screening on June 27.
Movie fans will also love the multi-course menu options that are delivered straight to your seat. Who can resist the “Royale with Cheese” burger or warm chocolate chip cookies? Of course, you can’t have a name like Alamo Drafthouse without having decent brews on tap, which share menu space with cocktails and non-alcoholic beverages like sodas and milkshakes.
Given that Alamo Drafthouse employees are, generally speaking, passionate about film—and that the movie lineup is carefully curated with both the audience and the cinematic zeitgeist in mind—this summer’s movie parties are sure to hit the spot. See you there?
