📅 July 29 – Adventures in Babysitting

About the movie:
High school senior Chris Parker (Elisabeth Shue) just wants to have a quiet night babysitting the Andersons’ two kids. But when her best friend runs away from home and calls for help, Chris drags the kids into downtown Chicago – where their car gets stolen, they accidentally steal a car back, they hide out at a blues club, they outrun mobsters, they escape a gang of car thieves, and they end up on the roof of a skyscraper. All in one night. This movie is a comedy thriller before that was really a thing. It’s sharp, it’s scary, and it’s hilarious. The “And the Babysitting Blues” musical number? Iconic. Thor? He’s a total hunk. “Don’t fuck with the babysitter” (clean version: “Don’t mess with the babysitter”). On the big screen with a crowd, you’ll be yelling at the screen and laughing nonstop.

Ticket details:
💰 12 adults | 7 kids (12 and under)
🍕 Every ticket includes a FREE slice of pizza from Paul’s Live from New York!

How it works:
Come early – buy a ticket at the door or scan your Eventbrite ticket to get your coupon. Grab your slice and settle in before the movie starts.

Parents, this one’s for you:
No cooking. No planning. No stress. Just show up, grab a slice, and share a formative movie with your kids. We’re giving you a night off from midweek entertainment duty.

No kids? No problem.
You still get the pizza and a great movie. This series is for anyone who loves 80s adventures – whether you’re reliving the magic or discovering it for the first time.
