Pee-wee's Big Adventure

Tonight’s outdoor screening of PEE-WEE’S BIG ADVENTURE at the Mercer Museum has been postponed due to rain. It has been rescheduled for Tuesday, August 25. All reserved tickets to this FREE screening will be honored.

Pee-wee Herman is an eccentric man-child who discovers that his precious bicycle has been stolen. Forced to hit the road to get it back, Pee-wee soons finds himself on a cross-country journey filled with plenty of danger and hijinks. Tim Burton's directorial debut is surreal, endearing, and laugh-out-loud funny. PEE-WEE'S BIG ADVENTURE features the late Paul Reubens as the titular character, whose iconic performance inspired generations of kids.
