In the name of the father, son and holy piledriver, get ready for Nacho Libre! The Senate Theater is bringing everyone’s favorite Catholic themed Lucha Libre comedy starring Jack Black to the big screen for a one-time only matinee!
Based loosely on a real Mexican Catholic priest, this outrageous family comedy follows the antics, (in and out of the wrestling ring) of the often clueless but goodhearted Ignacio, a friar and cook at a monastery and orphanage in Oaxaca. Ignacio, frustrated with the meager meals he and the monks provide, begins to moonlight as a professional wrestler. Despite a series of wacky setbacks, Ignacio remains determined to transform his dreams of wrestling glory into improved conditions at the orphanage in which he serves, the only home he has ever known.
The follow-up to director Jared Hess’ indie comedy phenomenon Napoleon Dynamite, this broad and beloved comedy was dismissed by critics on its release. But fan devotion has since body slammed those naysayers into submission, pummeling them with windup punches, clotheslines and flying kicks until their snobbery gets booed out of the arena of public opinion.
Pin this date to your calendar. See Nacho Libre at the Senate!
Parking is available in our gated lot, on Gilbert, and Michigan Avenue.
