Midwest Theater presents Nomadland

The Midwest Theater is excited to announce the re-opening of the Midwest Theater to host screening of the Golden Globe Nominee film "Nomadland".

After closing on March 16, 2020 due to COVID-19, the Midwest Theater has been working behind the scenes to be ready to open when the time is right.  We are excited to announce the Theater sill reopen Fe.b. 19-21 to screen the new movie "Nomadland" starring Frances McDormand.  The Midwest Theater itself has a cameo role in the film, as well as a local cast of approximately 30 people and other locations around Scottsbluff, Nebraska.

Nomadland
Following the economic collapse of a company town in rural Nevada, Fern (Frances McDormand) packs her van and sets off on the road exploring a life outside of conventional society as a modern-day nomad.  The third feature film from director Chloe Zhao, NOMADLAND features real nomads Linda May, Swankie and Bob Wells as Fern's mentors and comrades in her exploration through the vast landscape of the American West.

"Nomadland" has been nominated for 4 Golden Globes, as well as had another 117 nominations and already won 140 awards.

Tickets can be purchased at the door upon arrival.  Doors open 45 minutes before show time.  We encourage the use of contactless payment options.

Panhandle Public Health District has approved the limited reopening of the Midwest Theater with 125 tickets per screening as well as additional operational changes to go above the current public health requirements.

The Midwest Theater worked with Panhandle Public Health District to develop guidelines everyone will need to follow to care for our community while attending events at the Midwest Theater.
