Fans of the iconic Pee-wee Herman have a chance to take a whimsical trip down memory lane. This week, in honor of the late great Paul Reubens, Landmark Theatres in Pasadena is rolling out the red carpet (or should we say “fire-engine red bicycle”?) for a special screening of “Pee-wee’s Big Adventure.”
Paul Reubens, the incomparable talent behind Pee-wee Herman, might have left this world, but his joyous and quirky legacy endures. This tribute screening is a heartfelt nod to Reubens’ illustrious career, cut short by his battle with cancer.
First released in 1985, “Pee-wee’s Big Adventure” remains a cinematic treat. The movie, brought to life by the visionary Tim Burton, captures the hilarious escapades of Pee-wee as he embarks on a nationwide quest to find his stolen bicycle. Today, it serves not just as a testament to Reubens’ comedic genius but also as a reminder of simpler times when joy was found in the smallest adventures.
If you’re a longtime fan or even someone looking to acquaint themselves with the delightful world of Pee-wee Herman, Landmark Theatres has made this event an easy choice. At just $8 a seat, the movie provides an affordable evening of laughter and nostalgia.
Screenings will be at:
- Saturday, August 19, 2023 at 3:00 pm and 10:05 pm
- Sunday, August 20, 2023 at 3:00 pm
The Landmark Pasadena Playhouse is at 673 E Colorado Blvd, Pasadena, CA 91101. For more call (626) 514-2801.
