This one is strictly for New York area hardcore comedy freaks.
Tomorrow, March 11, 2025, at 7:30pm — a rare chance to see what many feel is the comedy to end all comedies, It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World (1963) screened in a theatre! It’s playing at the Cinema Arts Center in Huntington, Long Island. If you don’t drive, it’s accessible via the Port Jefferson line on the LIRR, though you’ll need to call a cab or Uber when you get there for the last leg. I know many a fan who’ll agree with me that it’s worth it. Read my long form appreciation of It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World to get your head in the mood — if you need to! And get tickets and more info here.
Also playing at the Cinema Arts Center today and tomorrow, a new documentary about Liza Minnelli, Liza: A Truly Terrific Absolutely True Story. Tickets and info on that one here.
