Extraordinary Cinema: Stardust

“Stardust” is an outdoor Millennium Stage film screening at the Kennedy Center’s REACH Video Wall. The fantasy adventure follows Tristan, who enters the realm of fairies to recover a fallen star and win the affection of his beloved. Instead of finding a piece of space rock, he discovers Yvaine, a woman whose powers have made her the target of royal heirs seeking the throne and a witch pursuing eternal youth and beauty.

The film is presented with open captions, and guests may watch from available seating or bring their own blankets and chairs. The screening is subject to cancellation or relocation because of severe weather, including rain and heat advisories.
