What we’re about
Going to the movies used to be a thing I did by myself. But lately I've rediscovered how much fun it is to go with friends and to talk about it with them afterwards. So, here we are!
Providence Movie Club is a group where we'll go to a movie and then grab a drink after it's over to hang out and chat. I'm pretty omnivorous with my movie taste, so one week we could see something at the Avon, and the next be front and center at Morbius. Post-movie will change as well and hit bars, coffee shops, breweries, boba tea places, etc.
Don't worry about being a film expert or anything. I imagine conversations will go like most book clubs where you talk about the book for seven minutes and then everyone drops it.
See you at the movies!

See all- Clue at White OwlWhite Owl, Providence, RI
A concept I've been wanting to try for a long time now is a dinner and a movie type thing. The people at White Owl in Providence (the same owners of Tori Tomo and Wara Wara) reached out about doing an event together, so I thought now would be a great time to try the idea. So on April 30th, we'll be watching Clue at the restaurant White Owl.
Clue finds six colorful dinner guests gathered at the mansion of their host, Mr. Boddy – who turns up dead after his secret is exposed: He was blackmailing all of them. With the killer among them, the guests and Boddy’s chatty butler must suss out the culprit before the body count rises.
Join us on Wednesday, April 30th for a watch party of Clue at White Owl. The event will start at 6:30pm for people to order food/drinks and socialize. Then I'll start the movie around 7:30ish. White Owl is a smaller space so you'll be able to find us no problem. Reach out if you have any questions!
- Suspiria at AS220 Black BoxAS220 Black Box Theater, Providence, RI
Man I love movies that showcase an impeccable use of color. And Suspiria, from 1977, is one of the best in that department. Directed by Dario Argento, the film stars Jessica Harper as an American ballet student who transfers to a prestigious European dance academy but realizes, after a series of murders, that the academy is a front for a coven of witches.
Join us on Saturday, May 10th for a 7:00pm screening of Suspiria at the AS220 Black Box theater. Doors open at 6:45pm, and we'll start the movie around 7:00ish. For anyone interested, we'll go to the AS220 bar afterwards to hang out (or someplace else downtown depending on the mood. It'll be Saturday night after all, wOoOoOoO!)
This is a ticketed event, and tickets are $7 each. You can pay with cash or card at the door. AS220 will soon have a preorder link as well if you want to go down that route. Feel free to drop a comment if you get lost or have any questions. The Black Box theater is located at 95 Empire Street in downtown Providence, to the right of the AS220 bar.
