Summer is coming. Doesn’t that make you so happy you could … dance? If not, then the NoMa Business Improvement District’s annual slate of outdoor movies will.

(I’m sorry, that was corny. Let’s try again).

Hey dance nerds! You’re really going to like the NoMa Business Improvement District’s Summer Screen theme this year (much better). The annual free, 13-week outdoor film series in NoMa returns on May 27 and this summer’s theme is “Dance, Dance, Dance.” Naturally, the series kick off with the salacious dance classic, starring the one and only Patrick Swayze, Dirty Dancing. Here’s the rest of the schedule for this summer:

  • May 27: Dirty Dancing (PG-13)
  • June 3: Center Stage (PG-13)
  • June 10: Bride & Prejudice (PG-13)
  • June 17: Flashdance (R)
  • June 24: Strictly Ballroom (PG, 1992)
  • July 1: Grease (PG-13)
  • July 8: Breakin’ 2: Electric Boogaloo (PG)

Per usual, the NoMa Summer Screen series is free and open to anyone. This year’s screenings will take place at a new location, Storey Park Lot (1005 First Street NE). There’s music, giveaways, food trucks, and more. Stuff you can bring: coolers, kids, leashed dogs, chairs blankets, Frisbees, good attitudes. Stuff you can’t bring: booze, drugs, shitty attitudes.
