Description

Join the Old South Meeting House (310 Washington St.) for the first annual ‘Movies at the Meeting House’ series for "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone." During 2015, Old South Meeting House will show three films based on books that were banned in various locations throughout the US, including Boston. 


Promoting free speech is a key part of Old South Meeting House’s mission – and OSMH's free speech policy was formally announced in the 1920s, when the banning of multiple books, magazines and plays by Boston’s Watch and Ward Society had spawned the term “Banned in Boston.” Soon after implementing its free speech policy, Old South Meeting House hosted a forum on the banning of Eugene O’Neill’s play Strange Interlude in Boston. In honor of this literary and free speech history, works once silenced for their controversial content are being featured in OSMH's first ‘Movies at the Meeting House’ series. Grab a friend and come enjoy the historic interior of Old South Meeting House like never before!

Doors open at 6:30 pm, film begins at 7:30 pm. Advance tickets are $8 for the general public, $4 for OSMH members. All tickets are $10 at the door. Beer, wine and soft drinks available for purchase, courtesy of Harpoon Brewery. Come before the screening for a beverage and the chance to explore the historic Old South Meeting House and the permanent exhibition ‘Voices of Protest.’
