SPECIAL EVENTS

Aurora Picture Show presents Ladies of the 80's, A Sing-Along Fundraiser. With Programmer of the Original Alamo Drafthouse Henri Mazza.  Wednesday, March 24, 7PM-9PM, at Saint Arnold Brewery, the new location at 2000 Lyons Ave.

Prepare for one, like, totally awesome night of, like, sing-a-long/dance party awesomeness! Teased hair... leg warmers... jelly bracelets... undeniably danceable music from the goddesses of 80s pop music, including Cyndi Lauper, The Bangles, Blondie, Tiffany, and some girl called Madonna... it's a recipe for the most fun you'll ever have in neon. Sure there will be places to sit, but we'll be surprised if you stay in those seats for long.

Hosted by Henri Mazza, the sing-a-long genius from Austin's Original Alamo Drafthouse known for other curated classics such as the R. Kelly, Michael Jackson, and 80s Power Ballad sing-a-longs, this special fundraiser event will take place in the "newery" of Saint Arnold Brewery. This special event fundraiser will help support free cinematic events and video salons throughout the year.

From musical movies to cinematic music videos, the Original Alamo's series of Sing-Along Extravaganzas takes the best parts of going to a concert and the best of going to a movie theater, mixes it all together, and leaves you with something completely new. The backbone of any Sing-Along show is the singing, of course, which is made easy by having subtitled lyrics to all the songs projected onto the screen. But each show also includes a whole slew of interactive and prop-based activities that take the action off the screen and into the event itself!

So how do you prepare for something like this? One, plan on singing and dancing to pretty much every song, because the 1980s was the decade that invented the dance party (sorry, disco). And two, DRESS UP. Grab some leg warmers, rip up a sweat shirt, and put a headband on. Preferably all in neon colors. And last but not least, don't forget to bring along your Aurora or Saint Arnold pint glass so you can sample the yummy goodness of Saint Arnold.

The Ladies of the 80s are back, and we’re so excited we just can’t hide it. I’m about to lose control, and I think I like it.

Special thanks to Saint Arnold Brewery and Yelp for their support of this event.
