Tampa Theatre, Tampa’s oldest theater, is offering its Kid-Inspired Movie Series during the months of March and April. Tampa Theatre offers area residents the chance to see their beloved family films on the big screen in a beautifully restored movie palace.
Tampa Theatre has been a favorite destination for Bay-area moviegoers for generations. This March and April, the next generation of young fans will get the chance to see some of their parents’ most beloved childhood films on the big screen, thanks to the Family Favorites classic movie series, presented by Bank of America.
“While many of our summer and holiday classic offerings are family-friendly, this is the series that we program specifically with families in mind,” said Jill Witecki, the theater’s vice president and director of marketing. “We want parents to be able to introduce their kids to some of their own favorite movies from childhood and experience that nostalgia of seeing them on the big screen again,” added Witecki.
