grand new pry

Bay seniors learned long ago that our country cousins are no longer( if they ever were) hayseeds. At the Napa Valley Opera House they offer a full schedule of film and theater (including a current widely lauded presentation of “Cymbeline) and this summer will be the home of the Blue Note Club offering classic jazz. […]

let it pour

Bay seniors feeling cheated on having missed the illegal excitements of Prohibition may want to try the Noir Lounge in Hayes Valley. It’s a cross between a reasonable facsimile of a speakeasy and a dark, comfy men’s club. There are two bars, a small plates menu and, enticingly, a screening room which they show old films. […]

sofa cinema

Bay seniors who have not cancelled their Netflix memberships might want to check out these Geezer applauded titles: Rise of the Planet of the Apes: Who knew SF had such an enormous simian population ready to take over the town?
