ABOUT THE SHOW

You ever seen a… screening of the greatest comedy to ever hit the skies? Well surely you’ve seen Airplane! — but not like this!

We have clearance, Clarence, to show the beloved comedy classic, Airplane! on the BIG screen joined live by two stars of the film!

Assuming they don’t have the fish for dinner... Robert Hays (reluctant pilot “Ted Striker”) and Julie Hagerty (flight attendant “Elaine Dickinson”) will take the stage for a live discussion and Q&A after the film to share behind-the-scenes stories, insights, and personal memories from working on this genre-defining comedy masterpiece.  

So put down that glue, because SURELY this is the wrong week to miss Robert Hays & Julie Hagerty with a screening of Airplane! (And don't call them Shirley!)

First Class VIP Experience

Act quick: A limited number of passengers can upgrade to a “First Class” VIP meet & greet experience! VIPs will meet Julie Hagerty and Robert Hays, pose with them for a professionally shot photograph, and receive an autographed tour poster! This post-show VIP meet & greet opportunity is available to add on to any ticket purchase while supplies last.

The VIP add-on is not valid without an accompanying show ticket and each attendee must have both for entry to the VIP meet & greet.
