During Arkadin happy hours, we offer curated entertainment on the big screen in a looser, loungier atmosphere than a normal film screening. We keep the lights up a bit. No ticket required; you can drop in or drop out any time you like. Totally FREE plus drink/snack specials at the bar!

Darkly satirical, outrageous, and really fucking funny, Wonder Showzen was too good for this world. “Sesame Street on acid” barely scratches the surface of the depths of surreal strangeness reached by this truly singular comedy creation from John Lee and Vernon Chatman. Combining daring man-on-the-street bits like Beat Kids and Clarence with animation, sketches, interviews with real youngsters and lots and lots of foam puppets, this wild mock children’s show makes all other TV look like kid’s play. Enjoy some of the best episodes and clips because you’re never too young to have a Vietnam flashback.

Arkadin does not generally provide advisories about subject matter or potentially triggering content in films, as sensitivities vary from person to person. However, we encourage researching titles to determine if a screening may contain content that could be upsetting to you. Please feel free to contact us for guidance on specific films. Information about content can also be found on Common Sense Media, IMDB and DoesTheDogDie.com, as well as through general internet searches.
