The Lindsay Theater - Nine on 90s!

The Lindsay Theater's 2026 summer season is bringing back the 90s! Their Director of Communications and Media Relations, Josh Axelrod, stopped by the WQED-FM studio to chat with Anna Singer about the lineup. The series opens with Jerry Maguire, which celebrates its 30th anniversary this year. It also commemorates 35 years of Boyz N the Hood and Thelma & Louise. And, of course, Jurassic Park, Ghost, Basic Instinct, The Pelican Brief, and The Mask. Josh and Anna highlight what makes these films special, touch on fly fishing in A River Runs Through It, and champion the enduring appeal of cinema. The Lindsay is also continuing its other exciting programs. On Thursday, June 18th, Phillip "DJ Big Phill" Thompson will present a documentary about the history of Black comic book culture. And on Friday, June 19th 7:30pm John "Buzz" Moyer, a Sewickley native, will give a talk about his work on Steven Spielberg's upcoming film, Disclosure Day. There are two opportunities to see each of the nine movies in the series. For showtimes and ticket details, visit the Lindsay Theater's website.
