The Screening Room, on State Street in Newburyport, has a wonderful intimate quality seating under one hundred people, and often staffed by the owners themselves.
Some amazing restaurants are only two minutes away, and range from the vegan Mandarava, to a true local diner (Angies), and the more upscale oyster bar Brine.
There is truly something for everyone in the walking town of coastal Newburyport.
In May enjoy the documentary film RBG. Supreme court justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has become a cultural icon with her steady fight for the ERA, and her ability to work into her eighties in top mental and physical condition.
She is not afraid of anyone, and will tell you exactly what she thinks with a wink and a smile. Whether you are ready for it or not. Her famous friendship with former conservative rival Justice Scalia tells you much of what makes this woman one of a kind.
With unprecedented access filmmakers Betsy West and Julie Cohen explore how her early legal battles changed the world for women, and how she stays on top of her game today.

The Rider
Playing in June, days and times TBA
Based on a true story, The Rider stars breakout Brady Jandreau as a once rising star of the rodeo circuit warned that his competition days are over after a tragic riding accident.
Back home he finds himself wondering what he has to live for when he can no longer do what gives him a sense of purpose: to ride and compete.
