We are thrilled to announce that the Old Greenbelt Theatre has been selected to participate in the national release of First Man. Hailed by critics, the latest collaboration between director Damien Chazelle and actor Ryan Gosling (who last collaborated on La La Land), tells the riveting story of NASA’s mission to land a man on the moon, focusing on Neil Armstrong and the years 1961-1969. A visceral, first-person account, based on the book by James R. Hansen, the movie will explore the sacrifices and the cost on Armstrong and on the nation of one of the most dangerous missions in history.

Premiering on Friday, October 12 at the Old Greenbelt Theatre.

We here at the Old Greenbelt Theatre want to say a huge thank you to all of the supporters who have made our Save Me a Seat campaign so successful.

Launched in April 2018, the Old Greenbelt Theatre sought $100,000 in support to replace the 40-year-old seats in our auditorium. Each seat was $250, and we have been blown away by the outpouring of support that the campaign has received. Not only did we reach our $100,000 goal, but we’ve far surpassed it, reaching well over $106,000 (as of Sept. 21).

We are so excited to be wrapping up this campaign as the Old Greenbelt Theatre celebrates 80 years of screening movies thanks to our amazing community of supporters. Thank you to everyone who participated in this campaign!
