The ShowRoom and The Center invite you to a Wonderful evening!
The ShowRoom is pleased to announce its partnership with The Center in Asbury Park in
co-producing a festive fundraiser screening of It’s a Wonderful Life on December 14th at
7:30pm!
It’s a Wonderful Life follows George Bailey, who has so many problems he is thinking about
ending it all. As the angels discuss George, we see his life in flashback. As George is about to
jump from a bridge, he meets his guardian angel, Clarence – who then shows George what his
town would have looked like if it hadn’t been for all his good deeds over the years.
Although it was initially met with mixed reviews and was unsuccessful at the box office, It’s a
Wonderful Life became a Christmas classic years later due in part to its accessibility on
television every year around the holidays. In 1990, It’s a Wonderful Life was selected for
preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress for being
deemed as “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant”.
The ShowRoom looks forward to spreading the holiday cheer with this timeless classic and
helping out an organization so vital to the Asbury Park community. Since 1992 The Center has
been providing support services for people living with HIV/AIDS through housing, food, and
general health and hygiene services. They are expanding their reach to connect all at-risk
individuals in the community to comprehensive healthcare and wellness through vital services,
counseling and education, collaboration, and advocacy to inspire and empower all to live longer,
healthier, and happier lives.
As of writing this, we have already nearly sold out our large theater and will be adding a second
simultaneous screening. Tickets go on sale for our second show on Thursday, November 30th
at 10:00am. Lasso yours while you can at showroomcinemas.com
