Sir Ulrich gets one last chance to rock you as A Knight's Tale returns to Billy Joe's!

A KNIGHT'S TALE RETURNS
by John-Paul, ATF Staff Writer

There is one final chance to see A Knight's Tale on the big screen before it hits video and DVD at the end of this month. Billy Joe's Pitcher Show is bringing the movie back to their "lounge theater" for one week only. Come join us for a 9:30pm showing each night from Friday September 14 to Thursday September 20. Tickets are only $3.50 for Fri-Sat-Sun showings, and their special "Monday Madness" discount pricing of $1.50 will be in effect for the rest of the week (Mon-Thu)! They are bringing this film back partially at our request, so please come join us!

Billy Joe's Pitcher Show is located on the West side of Des Moines, Iowa. It is a very different kind of movie theater. Instead of "theater style seating", you sit at small tables (each with four chairs) where you can order drinks and food during the movie. Not only is there popcorn and soda, but you can also get a pitcher of beer and a great sandwich. They have a big selection of munchies as well.

WE WANT YOU TO COME JOIN US! We'd like to have a bunch of rennies show up in garb for each night of the showing with plans to have one "big" showing on either Friday or Saturday night. Please let us know if you want come out, and tell us what nights you will attend.

MIDNIGHT SHOWING, ANYONE? Billy Joe's will consider letting us have a midnight showing of A Knight's Tale if we can get enough people interested. AtTheFaire.com will have to pay for this viewing and it will cost several hundred dollars. If there is enough interest, we would be glad to do it. We also may use Billy Joe's as the location of our private screening for the Keeper's of the Kingdom renaissance festival documentary.
