The Beverly Theater brings back one of Hollywood's most beloved romantic comedies from the Golden Age of cinema. "The Philadelphia Story" (1940) stars Katharine Hepburn, Cary Grant, and James Stewart in a sparkling tale of high society, second chances, and wedding day chaos. The film follows socialite Tracy Lord as she prepares to marry again, only to have her plans complicated by the arrival of her charming ex-husband and a cynical reporter.
Watching this classic on the big screen at the Beverly Theater offers something special that home viewing can't match. The intimate 150-seat theater creates the perfect atmosphere for appreciating the film's witty dialogue and impeccable comedic timing. The venue's excellent acoustics ensure you'll catch every clever quip in the famously sharp screenplay, which won Donald Ogden Stewart an Academy Award. It's a chance to see why this film continues to define the romantic comedy genre more than 80 years after its release.
