ROMY AND MICHELE’S HIGH SCHOOL REUNION
Wed, Feb 7 at 8:00pm: Introduction from Belcourt public historian and archivist T. Minton | BUY TICKETS

Part of Staff Picks and programmed by T, who says “Mildly successful upon first-release, ROMY AND MICHELE’S HIGH SCHOOL REUNION is now an ascendant cult-classic – rightfully hailed as feminist canon – thanks to Robin Schiff’s masterfully written, ultramodern satire on the pangs of the quarter-life crisis, and the transformative power of friendship and self-acceptance. Lisa Kudrow and Mira Sorvino deliver Shakespearean-level ditziness that will leave your heart full and your gut-busted.


Ten years after their high school graduation, Romy (Mira Sorvino) and Michele (Lisa Kudrow) haven’t exactly accomplished everything that they set out to do. Despite their strong friendship, their personal and professional lives are still lacking. When they hear of their upcoming high school reunion, they take it as an opportunity to show their classmates how much they’ve changed — first by trying to reform themselves, then by creating a lie that eventually spins out of control.
