Throw Things at Popeye!

Tuesday, August 18

Enjoy an evening of madcap mayhem at the Seaport Starlight Cinema's outdoor amphitheatre showing of the feature film, Popeye, starring Robin Williams and Shelly Duval with audience participation a la The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

If you've always wanted to be stylin' like Popeye and Olive Oyl, now's your chance. Come dressed as your favorite Popeye character, such as Popeye,Olive Oyl, Bluto, Swee'pea, Wimpy, Poopdeck Pappy or any of the cartoon's characters, and compete in a contest for the rare and coveted Golden Can of Spinach Award!

Audience members will be armed with all kinds of fun "props" to interact with the movie, including green confetti to throw at the sight of spinach, bubbles to blow when Popeye smokes his pipe, kazoos to toot whenever a character breaks out in song, and more.

There will be free popcorn, give-aways, activities,
trivia contests, and a life-size Popeye to pose with -- bring your camera, family, friends, a blanket, and a picnic supper for a delightful evening

Movies begin at sunset, and at just $5 a person, plus free popcorn, they're a cheap date! Movies are held rain or shine; in the event of inclement weather, the movies will be shown inside the Museum's Concert Hall.
