Tolkien’s world renowned trilogy and follow-up to 2001’s four-time Academy Award winner The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring. The third installment, “The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King” comes to theaters in December 2003.<\/p>\n
“One Night to Rule Them All” festivities will take place between 6 p.m. and 11 p.m. The theater staff is preparing right now, constructing 18-feet tall paper mache replicas of the TWO TOWERS to be displayed in the lobby and a 10-foot tall window painting including the film’s logo and main characters. For the night, staff members will be dressed as various characters from the movies and as other hobbits and elves. On hand will be a local medieval acting troop performing sword fights exhibitions and a fabulous face painter. Lord of the Rings and Tolkien trivia contests will be held before each “Two Towers” showing during the allotted hours.<\/p>\n
