Festival partners with The Wilde Resort & Spa for “Wilde Wednesdays” outdoor films
The Sedona International Film Festival is partnering with The Wilde Resort in West Sedona to present its “Movies on the Move” outdoor film experience — “Wilde Wednesdays” Cinema Under the Stars — every Wednesday in the summer season!
Join us on Wednesday, June 18 as we present “Chicago: The Musical” in The Grove Fire Pit Garden at The Wilde Resort and Spa.
“Chicago” — based on the multiple Tony Award-winning Broadway musical — won six Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Supporting Actress, Best Editing, Best Costume Design, Best Sound and Best Art Direction and was nominated for seven others, making it one of the most nominated films in history at the 2003 Oscars.
Nightclub sensation Velma (Catherine Zeta-Jones) murders her philandering husband, and Chicago’s slickest lawyer, Billy Flynn (Richard Gere), is set to defend her. But when Roxie (Renée Zellweger) also winds up in prison, Billy takes on her case as well — turning her into a media circus of headlines. Neither woman will be outdone in their fight against each other and the public for fame and celebrity.
The magic of the musical’s timeless songs propels this intoxicating tale of scandal, corruption and cover-up, creating an unforgettable show. A large cast, non-stop songs and explosive dance numbers combine to make “Chicago” a guaranteed smash.
Bring your lawn chair or blanket and relax in front of a massive outdoor movie screen. Enjoy food and beverage offerings from The Wilde Resort and fun movie concessions.
The Wilde Resort and Spa is also offering local “Stay-cation” getaway packages with special $199 nightly rate for a Grove room (arriving Wednesday), including a complimentary bottle of wine (red or white), waived resort fees, and late check-out at noon. Mention booking code “D-WWED” when making the reservation.
“Chicago: The Musical” will be shown outdoors at The Wilde Resort and Spa (2250 W. State Route 89A in West Sedona) on Wednesday, June 18 at dusk. Seating will begin at 7 p.m. Bring your lawn chairs. Parking is free and available at The Wilde Resort and Spa.
