Passion Movie Showing

How to plan The Passion at the Cinema 8 Movie Theater

1. Contact Cinema 8 Theater. 

   1. This should be done around the beginning of Lent if at all possible. Allows the reservation to stand so no one else can take the theater.

   2. It is best to walk in and ask about renting a theater for the date. Trying to call will create a headache. 

      1. The Manager should provide all necessary details about pricing. 

      2. Tell them the date and time you would like to reserve the theater. 

   3. Advertising

      1. This is a movie that is not restricted to any denomination nor just Catholicism, the greater the attendance of this event the better.

      2. Notify all parishes for a bulletin insert two weeks ahead.

      3. 
         

2. Bring the Movie a week ahead of time. 

   1. In the past she would like to verify the movie plays and works correctly before the actual showing

   2. She will specify the time frame. Listen to what the theater would like you to do. 

3. The Day of the showing

   1. Show up an hour early and discuss how they would like to proceed

   2. In the past we are handed a roll of tickets

   3. We place one ticket in the bucket per person that enters the theater

   4. After people are in their seats place the bucket in a safe place or give to the manager for counting 

   5. After the tickets are counted write a check for the specified amount 

4. Record keeping- To help the Knights in the following year record the following 

   1. The amount accumulated by attendees

   2. The amount paid to the theater  

   3. The number of attendees

   4. This allows the knights to guess how large of a theater they will need next year, and how much they can plan to make from additional donations
