This weekend, May 17 and May 18, the Fallon Theatre will show Trolls Band Together and The Fast and the Furious, Tokyo Drift. We also will host numerous private parties this week.
We'd like to congratulate the Churchill County Middle School Greenwave Llamas for their excellent rendition of Peter Pan. The theatre was at standing room only on both evenings. Also, we'd like to thank the Great Basin Band for playing for free on our historic stage. Their concert was excellent, with a combination of oldies, classic rock, and a touch of country.
If you are interested in renting the theatre for a party or event, contact us at thefallontheatre@gmail.com. You can phone us at 775-423-6210 during office hours, 9 a.m. to noon, Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, or leave a message.
Showing this Friday and Saturday at 6 p.m. is the movie, “Trolls Band Together.” After two films of true friendship and relentless flirting, Poppy (Anna Kendrick) and Branch (Justin Timberlake) are now officially, finally, a couple. Poppy discovers that Branch was once part of the boy band “BroZone” with his brothers, Floyd, John Dory, Spruce and Clay.
BroZone disbanded when Branch was still a baby, as did the family, and Branch hasn't seen his brothers since. When Branch's brother Floyd is kidnapped for his musical talents by a pair of wicked pop-star villains — Velvet and Veneer – Branch and Poppy embark on a harrowing journey to reunite the other brothers and rescue Floyd. Free admission.
Showing this Friday and Saturday, May 18 at 7 p.m. is the movie, “The Fast and the Furious, Tokyo Drift.” For our car enthusiasts this is an exciting story of drifting auto racing with great car chase sequences and crashes on the metropolitan streets. An American teenager named Sean Boswell is a loner in school, however he challenges his rival for an illegal street racing, and he totals his car at the end of the race. To avoid time in prison he is sent to Tokyo to live with his father who is in the military. As soon as he arrives he discovers a new, fun but dangerous way of street racing known as drifting where Sean gets involved in the underworld of street racing in Tokyo. Free admission.
