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.

Today at the Kimball Theatre:

*In Bruges* May 12, 2008 6:45 PM Fri., May 9–Wed., May 14 Shows at 6:45 and 8:45 p.m. Rated: R Academy Award-winning writer/director Martin McDonagh makes his feature directorial debut with his own original screenplay. Bruges is the most well-preserved medieval city in the whole of Belgium, and for hit men Ray (Colin Farrell) and Ken (Brendan Gleeson) it could be their final destination. They have been ordered to remain there by their boss (Ralph Fiennes), but they’re very much out of place. The longer they stay, the more surreal their experience becomes. May 9–10, 12–13 screening room. 107 mins.



		Grand Medley of Entertainments May 12, 2008 7:30 PM A combination of circus, carnival, and vaudeville entertainment, the Grand Medley recreates an 18th-century traveling show. Marvel at the amazing feats, strange beasts, and fast-paced hilarity of the traveling players in a performance for the entire family. Genuine fun for the whole family! A colonial entertainment of such mirth – even Colonel Washington laughed. Colonial Performance ticket $12.00, children under 6 $6.
