From Lani Jo Leigh, Clinton Street Theater’s owner:
“Although closed, the Clinton Street Theater (CST) is more than a building with an auditorium with seats, a screen and a stage. We are the beating heart of the Clinton Corner, and our community, comprised of film-lovers, filmmakers, activists and artists, stays connected through our weekly newsletter and the CST’s social media (Instagram, Twitter and Facebook).
“While it’s impossible to be together in one place, we can still watch and enjoy the same movie. Several distributors have made it possible for CST to go virtual – screening unique, indie, art house films online.
“When you buy or rent a movie, the Clinton Street Theater receives part of the proceeds. This way, renting and viewing a film in the comfort of your home provides income for the theater. “
At CSTPDX.com, you can keep up with the list of films streaming in May, like the environmental documentaries Earth, or Fantastic Fungi about mushrooms and mycelia, or the locally-produced indie hit, Phoenix, Oregon. There are many other films to stream too.
“We miss the loyal supporters of the myriad of events held at our quirky little theater, and we are working hard to stay afloat until we can all dance the Time Warp again!”
Buy a ticket. Watch at home. Support the Clinton.
