July is here, and we’re kicking off the month with a mix of classic charm and animated comedy at the Fallon Theatre.
As always, admission to our weekly movies is free, concessions are open, and we’ve brought back $5 soda floats to help you stay cool all summer long!
This Friday and Saturday at 6 p.m., join us for Bee Movie, a lighthearted and quirky animated tale starring Jerry Seinfeld as Barry B. Benson, a bee who decides to sue the human race for stealing honey.
This family-friendly adventure is rated PG. We're showing Bee Movie on the Fourth of July in celebration of this year’s parade theme: “America the Bee-autiful!” Special thanks to Digitex Printing for sponsoring this screening.
Then at 7 p.m., we’re going back in time with the celebrated classic Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, starring Jimmy Stewart.
This timeless political drama follows an idealistic senator fighting corruption in Washington, D.C., and remains one of the most iconic American films.
Looking ahead to Friday, July 18 at 7 p.m., we’re teaming up with the Toiyabe Chamber Music Society to present The Bow and the Brush, a one-of-a-kind performance by internationally acclaimed violinist Dan Flanagan.
Currently on faculty at UC Berkeley, Dan pairs original solo violin pieces with projected artwork that inspired them, weaving in lively and insightful stories about each creation. After successful performances in Rome, Paris and Carnegie Hall, this engaging program comes to Fallon for a suggested donation of just $5.
Then on July 19 at 7 p.m., get ready for an electrifying night of live music with Acid Box and Cryptilians. Fallon’s own Acid Box brings a hard rock, heavy metal, punk and blues fusion that’s loud, bold and full of energy.
Reno’s Cryptilians deliver a no-frills, punk-adjacent set distilled to the essence. Admission is just $10 for this powerhouse double-bill so grab your friends and join us for an unforgettable concert night.
We’re also proud to take part in the citywide Community Reunion in August. Join us Aug. 15 at 7 p.m. for a free concert at the Fallon Theatre featuring the Great Basin Band, a local favorite that’s graced our stage many times and performed past reunion shows.
Known for their lively mix of pop, country, and rock that covers from the ‘80s, ‘90s and aughts, they’re sure to get the celebration started right. The following day, Aug. 16 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., stop by for guided tours of the theatre. Whether you’re revisiting old memories or discovering the space for the first time, we’d love to welcome you through our doors.
Looking ahead to the fall, don’t forget about our Fundraising Show & Shine on Sept. 27. This annual community car show is free to attend and open to all. Expect classic cars, local vendors, live music and great food. If you’re interested in showcasing your vehicle, registration info is available at fallontheatre.com.
