SUMMARY:Straight No Chaser: Beach Bash at Oxford Performing Arts Center
DESCRIPTION:This performance is proudly presented by Ken and Jenny Howell. \nIf the phrase “male a cappella group” conjures up an image of students in blue blazers\, ties\, and khakis singing traditional college songs on ivied campuses… think again. Straight No Chaser (SNC) is neither straight-laced nor straight-faced\, but neither are they vaudeville-style kitsch. They have emerged as a phenomenon with a massive fanbase and a long list of accomplishments\, including 2 RIAA Gold Certified albums\, over 1.5 million concert tickets sold\, over 1 billion streams on Pandora\, and over 2 million albums sold worldwide. Straight No Chaser is the real deal: the captivating sound of nine unadulterated human voices coming together to make extraordinary music that moves people in a fundamental sense… and with a sense of humor.

SUMMARY:National Treasure Movie at Oxford Performing Arts Center
DESCRIPTION:Location & Time\nAll movies take place on the lawn at 200 Choccolocco Street\, Oxford\, AL 36203. Showings begin at 8:00 PM\, late enough for it to be dark enough for the projector to shine through. \nSeating\nBring your own blankets or outdoor chairs. No seating is provided. \nFood & Drink\nFood trucks have been invited\, and you’re welcome to bring your own food and non-alcoholic drinks. No glass containers\, and no alcohol. \nPets\nLeashed\, well-behaved pets are welcome. Please bring bags and clean up after them. \nGeneral Rules \nWeather\nCheck oxfordpac.org/movies before heading out. Cancellations will be posted by noon on the day of the showing. Movies may be canceled for rain or high winds due to the size of the screen. Canceled showings may be rescheduled later in the year based on availability and licensing. \nAbout The Movie \nWhat if the Founding Fathers were secret-society masterminds who hid a treasure so vast it could fund a nation — and left the clues scattered across America’s most iconic landmarks? Nicolas Cage decided to steal the Declaration of Independence to find out\, and honestly\, we respect the commitment. \nNational Treasure is the kind of gloriously fun\, completely unhinged adventure movie that Hollywood simply doesn’t make enough of — a film that treats American history like a Dan Brown novel and somehow makes you love it even more for doing so. It’s endlessly rewatchable\, endlessly quotable\, and perfect for a summer night when you want to sit back\, turn your brain to “fun mode\,” and just enjoy the ride. \nKids will be gripped by the puzzle-solving and the chase sequences. Adults will be reminded why Cage became a legend. Everyone will leave with a sudden\, inexplicable urge to go visit the Liberty Bell. Bring your sharpest minds and your wildest conspiracy theories — tonight we’re cracking the code together. \nIt’s a good night for history.

No glass containers\, and no alcohol. \nPets\nLeashed\, well-behaved pets are welcome.
