Oh, Hi Sydney!

The cult phenomenon The Room returns to The Orpheum (an exclusive monthly event for over three years now!) and as always will be an audience interactive screening – so grab your plastic spoon at the door!

Bring your friends, have a drink at the Orpheum bar (you’ll probably need two) and enjoy what has been referred to as “The Citizen Kane of Bad Movies”.

The Room is a 2003 American independent romantic drama film starring Tommy Wiseau, who also wrote, directed, and produced the feature.

Originally only shown in a limited number of California theatres, the film quickly developed a cult following as fans found humour in the film’s bizarre storytelling and various technical and narrative flaws.

Within a decade of its premiere, the film was selling out showings around the United States and had inspired a video game, book, and traveling stage show.

Tommy Wiseau unsuccessfully lobbied to get the film an Academy Award nomination and “fans” on his website are able to sign a petition to get Tommy a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
