I recently returned to the Somerville Theater for the first time in years. I had boycotted the place due to the lack of beer, which is simply too much of an integral part of my life to do without.

So the news was the Theater now has beer. I decide to give it one more shot and go to a Keller Williams show there. Here is a brief recap of the night.

Get in. Wait 1/2 hour in the ONE beer line. Watch 1/2 hour of Keller. Wait 1/2 hour in the ONE beer line. Watch 15 minutes of Keller (you can only get one at a time). Wait 1/2 hour in the ONE beer line. Get to the front of line only to have them shut off the beer. Watch 15 minutes of Keller while twitching. Run full steam across the street to Johnny D's. Spend two hours with the love of my life (beer) NOT watching Keller. Ride home on the T cursing the Theater.

Shame on you Somerville Theater for your trickery, I shall never return!

Hi..
Some of the happiest and most exciting moments in my life since I've lived here have taken place at the Somerville Theatre. Whether I'm catching a regular movie with a good friend, checking out the Independent Film Festival of Boston, or catching a live show, the Somerville has never disappointed me. Magical things just happen here.

Somerville Theater is a amazing spot to watch a film. The cost are as inexpensive. They also sell popcorn and beer. It is amazing though it does not have comfortable seatings. The climate is also great there.
