The Fair Theater is proud to announce their 1 Annual Fair Theater Spring
Break Movie Days next week.
The Fair will present Despicable Me 3 on Wednesday (3/14), Paddington
on Thursday (3/15) and Coco on Friday (3/16). Movie times are 10:00
a.m. and 2:00 p.m. for all three days. Ticket prices are $2/adults and
$1/kids 12 and under and concessions will be available.
Despicable Me 3 sees the mischievous Minions hope that Gru will return
to a life of crime after the new boss of the Anti-Villain League fires him. Instead, Gru decides to
remain retired and travel to Freedonia to meet his long-lost twin brother for the first time. The
reunited siblings soon find themselves in an uneasy alliance to take down the elusive Balthazar
Bratt, a former 1980s child star who seeks revenge against the world.
Paddington features a young bear (Ben Whishaw) who makes his way to England in search of a
new home after a deadly earthquake destroys his home in Peruvian rainforest. The bear,
dubbed "Paddington" for the London train station, finds shelter with the family of Henry (Hugh
Bonneville) and Mary Brown (Sally Hawkins). Although Paddington's amazement at urban living
soon endears him to the Browns, someone else has her eye on him: Taxidermist Millicent Clyde
(Nicole Kidman) has designs on the rare bear and his hide.
Coco features a young Miguel who dreams of becoming an accomplished musician like his idol
Ernesto de la Cruz despite his family's generations-old ban on music. Desperate to prove his
talent, Miguel finds himself in the stunning and colorful Land of the Dead. After meeting a
charming trickster named Héctor, the two new friends embark on an extraordinary journey to
unlock the real story behind Miguel's family history.
All movies are rated PG.
