The Beverly Theater brings the cult classic stoner comedy "Up in Smoke" to its intimate downtown venue. This 1978 film starring Cheech Marin and Tommy Chong follows two hapless potheads on a series of misadventures that include unknowingly smuggling a van made entirely of marijuana across the Mexican border. The movie launched the duo into mainstream fame and essentially defined the stoner comedy genre for decades to come.

Screening on 4/20, the timing adds an extra layer of celebration for fans of the film and cannabis culture alike. The Beverly Theater's excellent acoustics and cozy 150-seat setup creates an ideal environment for enjoying this comedy with fellow enthusiasts. The venue's cocktail lounge offers a spot to hang out before or after the screening, making it easy to settle in for an evening in the Arts District. Whether you've seen it dozens of times or never caught it on the big screen, watching "Up in Smoke" in a theater setting brings new life to its absurdist humor and surprisingly catchy musical numbers.
