Throwback Thursday, Cape Cinema
Throwback Thursday
Join the Cape Cinema for Throwback Thursdays throughout the summer and enjoy some classic favorites from over the years. All shows begin at 7:00 PM. Double check dates as some Thursdays may feature a concert or other event. We have padded the season with break weeks just in case, so a given show would be moved rather than cancelled and we will announce such changes as soon as possible. Tickets will go on sale no more than a couple weeks ahead of time. And be sure to buy tickets for the Rocky Horror finale at the end of the summer so you can do the time warp again!
Individual Tickets: Adults: $10.00| Seniors: $8.00| Children: $6.50
$5.00 Throwback Pricing Deal: This year we are doing something new. For anyone who would like to benefit from this pricing you need only purchase the entire throwback season up front. For $50 you will get a special gift card that will be used for each of the 10 shows. This ensures you a ticket at the lower price without having to pre-purchase or wait for tickets to go live. You will still need to have the card with you when you come each week and we will use it to give you your special ticket.
Please note we have a few policies in place to help make sure you get your money's worth. First off, we will be offering this deal through the first half the season. Shows that have past will deduct from the cost (for example buying this after 2 shows have past will cost $40). However, you will be unable to get retroactive pricing (no partial refunds after-the-fact). We are doing this promotion as a special gift card so that, should a date get moved a week or you simply cannot make it, you will be able to use the $5.00 value of that ticket for something else. To ensure this money is not spent inappropriately or accidentally, this usage will be limited to AFTER the season has ended but extends through the end of the year.
Finally, this is a gift card much like any other. It is, effectively, cash. We cannot look it, you, or the transaction up. Without the card, the money (and therefore throwback priced tickets) are lost. Take care not to lose it!
