Pick of the Day: Pee Wee’s Big Adventure Alamo Bike Tour (in NYC) 8/5, 8/7, 8/9
Today brought the sad news of the passing of Paul Reubens, known and beloved by millions as Pee Wee Herman. His iconic performance in Tim Burton’s iconic film debut of Pee Wee’s Big Adventure will live on in cinema history for ages to come as something that was able to put a smile on a face of nearly anyone who watched it, no matter their age (far before Pixar figured out how to do that).
The good folks at Alamo Drafthouse already had a very special run of Pee Wee’s Big Adventure screenings at their NYC theaters (Brooklyn, Manhattan, and Staten Island) complete with the one and only legendary bike.
Unsurprisingly, tickets for the Brooklyn and Manhattan screenings are sold out, but there are a literal handful of tickets left for the Staten Island screening on Sat. Aug. 5th at 7PM for $15.50. At the very least, we’re betting the bike will probably be in the lobby for you to admire as well as honor Reubens’ memory.
Never one to disappoint, Alamo Drafthouse made a great little trailer for this very special event:
