Attention citizens of earth and the greater Philadelphia region, join us as we embark on our Fourth Annual Sci-Phi Film Festival taking place March 27th through March 29th.

The Festival continues on Saturday with an iconic '80s family film starring a young Ethan Hawke & River Phoenix- EXPLORERS! Tickets to this one are just $5 and admission is FREE for members of our nonprofit theater and their kids to attend. ๐ง๐ถ๐ฐ๐ธ๐ฒ๐๐ ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐๐ฒ๐๐๐ถ๐๐ฎ๐น ๐ฝ๐ฎ๐๐๐ฒ๐ ๐๐ผ ๐ฎ๐น๐น ๐ญ๐ฌ ๐ณ๐ถ๐น๐บ๐ ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐ฎ๐๐ฎ๐ถ๐น๐ฎ๐ฏ๐น๐ฒ ๐ป๐ผ๐ ๐ฎ๐ hiwaytheater.org/sciphi๐๐ฏ๐ผ๐๐ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐บ๐ผ๐๐ถ๐ฒ: This sci-fi fantasy film for the young stargazers in your life stars both Ethan Hawke and River Phoenix in their feature film debuts! A group of science obsessed friends build a spacecraft after one of them dreams up the blueprints. Along the way they must evade shady government agents and possible extraterrestrial beings. Fresh off the success of Gremlins โ Joe Dante imbues his sense of wonder, charm and dazzling special effects into this cult classic that gained notoriety on VHS.
The 2026 Sci-Phi Film Festival is sponsored by a generous grant courtesy of the Vesta Fund.
