New On The Giant Screen |
Our all new, digital projection, surround sound IMAX experience features a Disney classic re-imagined by Tim Burton when Dumbo takes to the screen beginning March 28. The all new, live action Dumbo expands on the beloved classic where differences are celebrated, family is cherished, and dreams take flight. And be sure to catch Shazam! after that, premiering April 4. Billy Batson is a streetwise 14-year-old who can magically transform into the adult superhero Shazam simply by shouting out one word. Check the posted schedule for showtimes. |
