'Tonight, we’re throwing a fundraiser to do our part to help our sister rep cinema get over the finish line with their renovation of the Eagle Theater in Eagle Rock. Vidiots Executive Director Maggie Mackay and the entire Vidiots team have been working tirelessly to open their rep cinema/video store/community space. We’re all in this together. Our suggested donation for the night is $25 per ticket. But if you want to donate more, go for it!
We’ll be donating ALL REVENUES tonight (including concessions) to Vidiots so Secret Movie Club can hopefully become a founding member of what will continue to be one of the great LA movie institutions."- Craig Hammill Secret Movie Club Founder
