Toy Story 5 PJ Party brought the crowd! Pretty much a sold out crowd with straggler seats throughout and a few tables up top!! What a fun exciting night seeing all the kids dressed up. Here is only a small handful of pics I had time to take before the full crowd arrives. If your kid was there and you took pics put them in the comments. We would love to see them!
More showtimes for the next couple weeks. Suggest ordering online to grab those seats. We are a fully assigned seating theater so you know your seat is waiting for you. www.sterlingtheaters.com
