There’s no crying in baseball, but there WILL be a screening of the 1992 sports comedy A League of Their Own! As America's stock of athletic young men is depleted during World War II, a professional all-female baseball league springs up in the Midwest, funded by publicity-hungry candy maker Walter Harvey. Competitive sisters Dottie Hinson and Kit Keller spar with each other, with their teammates, and with their grumpy has-been coach Jimmy Dugan on their way to fame.

This film is rated PG for some crude humor and sexual innuendo. Runtime 2 hours and 8 minutes.

To help our guests feel comfortable at this event, we will offer three seating areas, clearly designated onsite.
