The Kimball Theatre

Located in Merchants Square, the Kimball Theatre is home to current films and live performances. On any given day, you might see a Colonial Williamsburg interpreter portray Patrick Henry or enjoy a jazz ensemble of talented students from the College of William and Mary. Perhaps the Peninsula's Jewish Film Festival is in town, or maybe you'll see players performing an 18th-century Grand Medley of Entertainments. Whatever your tastes, the Kimball Theatre is at the center of Williamsburg's community activities. Creative programming alliances with the College of William and Mary, community organizations, and Colonial Williamsburg link our past with the present.

In Search of a Midnight Kiss

November 22, 2008 7:00 PM

Shows at 7:00 and 8:45 pm

This ode to technology-fueled romance and indie filmmaking is a funny and bittersweet look at love, sex, and modern romance.  As New Year's Eve approaches, Wilson (Scoot McNairy) is close to age 30 and far from where he wants to be in life.  His best friend browbeats him into posting a personal ad for New Year's Eve on Craig's List, which leads to a date with Vivian (Sara Simmonds), a sexy, sarcastic blind-date-from-hell.  The two embark on an unexpected, chaotic, and hilariously awkward journey through the streets of Los Angeles hoping to meet the "Right One" before midnight.

Director Alex Holdridge has created a film that lacks the sheen and shimmer of Hollywood romantic comedies, and the audience is the lucky beneficiary of this heartfelt gift.

November 21-25 screen room - Not Rated - 97 minutes
