I have been going to National theatre summer cinema for the past two years, and it is one of the best free things to do in town during the summer. Great films, commentaries, and a chance to see films on a big screen instead of your tv. Plus, it is a great opportunity to have a night on the town with a date without having to spend a lot of money - which as a working student I really appreciate! Go and see some movies for free!
The Summer Cinema Program is the greatest since popcorn for the DC Metropolitan area, and, it's even free. Just look at what's showing THIS summer-all these movies are BIG HITS. How can you beat all that!

The National is such a beautiful theatre, what a lovely place to go on a summer evening, the program is brilliantly selected - perfect classy date, unique and affordable!
I have to travel from Norfolk to find Entertainment and a Venue such as that provided by the National Theatre.
This movie series is fantastic for young and old. You can feel a rekindling the spirit and nostalgia of baseball in DC as well as community sharing entertainment. The National Theatre is quite possibly the best deal you will ever find in DC or elsewhere.
