Events

* There’s a light over at the Rowland Theatre, and its source is a flickering cinema screen showing The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Relive the tradition going 40 years strong and go to a midnight showing of this cult classic Saturday. To make the experience more immersive and interactive, Rowland Theatre will also sell prop bags. Doors open at 10:30 p.m., and various other activities (such as the Rocky Horror costume contest, dance competition and trivia game show) will prelude the midnight starting time. If you’re looking for ways to make your Saturday night more chilling, thrilling and fulfilling, then head on over to this Science Fiction/Single Feature blast.

* Honky-tonkin’ rock band Old Dominion will play at the Bryce Jordan Center Friday night. The Nashville band is slated to begin its performance at 7:30 p.m, and tickets for the concert range from $34.50-$60.

* If you’ve ever gone for a jog and longed for exercise to be more patriotic, then join the Give ‘Em 5! Run for Veterans 5K scheduled for 1 p.m. Sunday. Hosted at the Bellefonte Area Middle School, the event will support local veterans by raising money for the Veterans Assistance Fund. Tickets range from $17-$22, and patrons can acquire refreshments, shirts, and 5K awards. In addition, special prizes will be offered to veterans.
