Dust off the corsages and powder-blue tuxedos for 'Carrie' Trustees Theater screening
Brian De Palma’s indelible supernatural masterpiece returns to the big screen in a stunning 4K restoration for a very special night: a prom to remember as Carrie turns 50! Adapted from Stephen King’s acclaimed debut novel, Carrie stars Sissy Spacek in her Academy Award-nominated role as a painfully shy teenager whose emerging telekinetic powers collide with relentless cruelty from classmates and abuse from her religious zealot mother, portrayed with terrifying brilliance by fellow Oscar nominee Piper Laurie. In De Palma’s virtuosic hands, the horrors of coming-of-age build toward one of the most iconic, stylish, and blood-soaked prom nights in film history. For one night only, we’re turning Trustees Theater into Bates High. Break out the ruffles, hairspray, and cummerbunds to join us for a prom night you’ll never forget. Just remember: if they crown you queen, look up.
