Critics Consensus
Bringing a sweet amount of dignity to the art of imitation, Song Sung Blue mostly avoids becoming a mere cover of the documentary on which it's based thanks to Hugh Jackman and Kate Hudson's heartfelt performances.
Audience Says
With pitch-perfect performances, Song Sung Blue hits every emotional chord, delivering a wholesome, family-friendly film and a fitting tribute to one of the most beloved singer-songwriters in modern music history.

Critics Consensus: Breaking hearts and mending them in one fell swoop, Hamnet speculates on the inspiration behind Shakespeare's masterpiece with palpable emotional force thanks to Jessie Buckley and Paul Mescal's astonishing performances.
Audience Says: A haunting journey through deep sorrow beautifully captured by Chloé Zhao, Hamnet will utterly crush you.
In the near future, a detective (Chris Pratt) stands on trial accused of murdering his wife. He has 90 minutes to prove his innocence to the advanced A.I. Judge (Rebecca Ferguson) he once championed, before it determines his fate.
In "Send Help," two colleagues become stranded on a deserted island, the only survivors of a plane crash. On the island, they must overcome past grievances and work together to survive, but ultimately, it's an unsettling, darkly humorous battle of wills and wits to make it out alive.
Lunch with the Classics
Join us for an evening of powerful storytelling and song as Dale Sechrest pays tribute to the remarkable legacy of Harry Chapin. A Grammy Award-winning artist and dedicated humanitarian, Chapin achieved global success in the 1970s, best known for his narrative folk-rock hits like the iconic No. 1 single "Cat's in the Cradle," the poignant "Taxi," and the DJ's lament "W.O.L.D".
Bringing this powerful material to the stage is singer-songwriter Dale Sechrest, whose own work has been praised for its deep sense of narrative and personal connection. Critics have noted that Dale "does not simply sing his songs – he interprets them in every facet," a perfect sensibility for honoring Chapin's character-driven work. TICKETS GOING FAST!
