Fourteen classic films make up this year's Summer
Classics Series roster at the Michigan Theater.
The 1955 summer romance The Seven Year Itch, starring
Marilyn Monroe, kicks off the series on
June 14 and 16.
Every film in the summer-long series will be shown twice
on Sunday afternoons at 1:30 pm and again the following
Tuesday evening at 7:00 pm (with the exception of Psycho,
shown on Labor Day only), so there's no need to fret that
you'll miss one.
Among the highlights is Pandora's Box, a 1929 silent
film, on July 12 and 14. Organist Steven Ball will
create the live musical soundtrack on the vintage Barton
Theatre Organ.
The series is presented by Bud Light with
support from the Michigan Council for Arts &
Cultural Affairs and The Ann Arbor News.
Please visit the Michigan Theater web site for more information and a complete schedule with show times: http://michtheater.org/summer_classics.php
Admission is $9.00, $7.00 for students, seniors and US veterans,
$6.50 for Michigan Theater members. The Labor Day screening
of Psycho only is FREE for students. All shows
take place at the historic Michigan Theater, 603 E. Liberty
Street, across from Borders Books and Music in downtown
Ann Arbor.
