‘Empire Strikes Back’ Screening to Benefit Will Rogers Foundation   

TCL Chinese Theatre, 6925 Hollywood Blvd., Hollywood 

Hollywood’s TCL Chinese Theatre will host a special screening of “Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back” to raise funds in support of the Will Rogers Motion Picture Pioneers Foundation – a longtime industry charity committed to supporting a multitude of national health and social service programs, and providing financial assistance to members of the motion picture community in times of need. A special appearance will be made by the 501st Legion, an international costuming organization comprised of and operated by Star Wars fans who are committed to supporting communities, moviegoers and charitable causes nationwide. The group includes several Santa Clarita Valley residents who plan to attend the screening in costume as “screen-accurate” Star Wars characters. Doors open at 6:15 p.m. Tickets ($40) are available at tinyurl.com/bdhmuxyv.
