"This year will be the 33rd season of summer movies in Bryant Park! Bring a blanket and snag your spot on the lawn to watch The Truman Show on the big screen under the stars. The lawn opens at 5pm; film begins at 8pm." The ISSO group will hang out on the lawn before the movie starts. Join the group whenever your schedule allows.
Everyone is responsible for their own MTA subway ticket and any purchases made at the park. Detailed instructions will be shared with those who sign-up. We hope you can join!
