Special fundraising screening of Quentin Tarantino’s signature film set for Monday, April 21
Morro Bay’s Bay Theater will jump and party with a special fundraising screening of Quentin Tarantino’s “Pulp Fiction,” presented by The Rock 97.3/107.9, set for Monday, April 21, at 6 p.m. with doors opening at 5 p.m.
Tickets are $15 a person and available online, in advance at my805tix.com or TheRockCommunityRadio.org
Remaining tickets will also be available at the door (best to buy ahead, as these events tend to sell out). Previously, The Rock has hosted screenings of “The Rocky Horror Picture Show” and “The Big Lebowski.”
There will be a costume contest for fabulous prizes and a raffle to win an 8-foot Stewart Hydro-Cush Funline Surfboard. Wine and beer are available for those 21 and older only.
Proceeds will support the station “and help keep community radio alive and well on the Central Coast.”
“These screenings are always a blast,” said The Rock founder Hal Abrams. “When you support The Rock, you lift every local nonprofit that uses The Rock airwaves to spread their message. It’s a win-win.”
Attendees are in for a night of “outrageous costumes, audience participation, and unforgettable entertainment.”
“Pulp Fiction” is Tarantino’s best film and features an all-star cast, with John Travolta, Uma Thurman, Bruce Willis, Samuel L. Jackson, Tim Roth, and Ving Rhames, among a host of others.
According to Wikipedia, “’Pulp Fiction’ is a 1994 neo-noir film about the lives of two mob hit men, a boxer, a crime boss and his wife, and a pair of diner bandits that intertwine in four tales of violence and redemption.”
The Rock, 97.3/107.9 FM, is a nonprofit, all-volunteer, organization operated and supported by listeners and residents of SLO County. The Rock connects the Central Coast with “hyper-local, engaging, creative, community-based FM radio and online programming.”
The Rock also provides public safety programming, emergency preparedness education, and emergency alert announcements for Paso Robles, Templeton, Atascadero, Morro Bay, Los Osos, and Cayucos. The Bay Theater is a circa-1940s, single-screen, storefront movie theater located at 464 Morro Bay Blvd., and one of the last of its kind in SLO County.
