CLASSICS AT THE ORPHEUM
Timeless films. Timeless theatre.
SPACEBALLS (1987)
1h 36m | PG | Comedy, Sci-Fi
Prepare for ludicrous speed as Friends of the Orpheum Theatre and Downtown Phoenix present SPACEBALLS on the Orpheum’s giant screen!
Directed by Mel Brooks, this beloved sci-fi spoof follows Lone Starr, Barf, and Princess Vespa as they battle the comically inept forces of Dark Helmet and President Skroob. Filled with unforgettable characters, quotable one-liners, and Mel Brooks’ signature humor, SPACEBALLS remains one of the most celebrated comedy films of the 1980s.
Experience this cult classic in the grandeur of the historic Orpheum Theatre, where moviegoing is as memorable as the film itself.
Presented by the Friends of the Orpheum Theatre and Downtown Phoenix Inc. All proceeds benefit the historic Orpheum Theatre.
