Shankweiler’s
Drive-In Theatre
AMERICA’S OLDEST Drive-In
Shankweiler's Drive-In, established in 1934, is the oldest operating drive-in theater in the world and the second ever built. For over 90 years, it has delighted audiences with double features on its large outdoor screen. Located in the Lehigh Valley, Orefield, Pennsylvania, just off Route 309.
NOW SHOWING
Saturday, October 11
On October 11, it's time to do the Time Warp... AGAIN! Shankweiler's Drive-In proudly presents the triumphant return of a very special outdoor screening of THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW, complete with an unforgettable shadowcast performance by our friends at Spaced Out Sensations RHPS Shadowcast!
SOS Shadowcast will perform live under our enormous drive-in screen while the movie plays! We will dedicate our entire first row to performers and audience members looking to participate. SOS will also be selling prop bags night-of-show for our audience members who want to engage fully in the various cinematic rituals.
This experience can be whatever you want it to be. Come be a part of the action under the screen and interact with fellow fans and cast members on the lot, or just enjoy the madness (and the movie) from afar in the comfort and privacy of your car.

Gates open - 5:30pm
