Monday Movies Under the Stars

June 4th through 25th

VORTEX Repertory Theatre

The VORTEX Repertory Theatre continues their free “Movies Under the Stars” series during the month of May with blockbuster films of summers’ past. The free screenings play each Monday night, starting at 8 p.m.

The June selections include:

June 4th: 27 Beetlejuice (1989)

Adam and Barbara are a normal couple...who happen to be dead. They have given their precious time to decorate the house and make it their own, but unfortunately a family is moving in, and not quietly. Adam and Barbara try to scare them out, but end up becoming the main attraction to the money-making family. They call upon the departed Beetlejuice to help, but Beetlejuice has more in mind than just helping.

June 18th: Splash (1984)

The story begins in 1959, when an adolescent mermaid rescues young Allen Bauer from a watery grave off of Cape Cod. Twenty-five years later, the boy has grown up, and, upon returning to the cape, he once again manages to fall into the sea and is rescued once more by the mermaid. She decides to travel to New York to search for Allen. On dry land, the mermaid is able to walk about on legs; any contact with salt water, and she reverts to her half-fish form. Adopting the name of Madison from a New York street sign, the girl manages to win Allen’s heart. Alas, a secret government lab captures Madison for research purposes – and possible vivisection. Egged on by his brother, Allen rescues his beloved, joining her in the ocean depths as a merman.

June 25th: Ghostbusters (1984)

Three oddball scientists get kicked out of their cushy positions at a university in New York City where they studied the occult. They decide to set up shop in an old firehouse and become Ghostbusters, trapping pesky ghosts, spirits, haunts and poltergeists for money. They wisecrack their way through the city, but when a downtown skyscraper becomes the focal point of spirit activity linked to the ancient god, Gozer, the problem may be more than the team can handle.

Some seating will be provided, with lawn chairs and blankets recommended. No outside food or drink will be permitted, but The Butterfly Bar will be open for business with snacks and beverages. Theme dressing for each movie is encouraged.

The VORTEX Theatre is located at 2307 Manor Road. For tickets and more information, call (512) 478-LAVA (5282) or visit www.VortexRep.org.
