BASIC INFORMATION;

Tamanend Park is located at 1255 Second Street Pike in Southampton, Pennsylvania (at the intersection of Maple Avenue halfway between Street and Bristol Roads).

Show times take place at dusk, which starts around 9:00pm but as the summer wanes, the times become earlier as the sun sets earlier, ending at around 6:00 pm.

The trails are illuminated with solar lights so you can feel confident that the lights will lead you to The Meadow Amphitheatre. If you arrive earlier you can check out the stage before it gets dark. This might help you feel better about where the films are shown because they are not right next to the parking areas. You will need to walk a little ways into the park. It is very enchanting and a lot of fun!

I suggest you get there a half an hour before dusk/dark. You are welcome to picnic in the Meadow while we set up for the film and you may end up getting a performance from the stage.

We have a concession stand where we sell canned soda, bagged chips, pretzels and popcorn. This year we tried ice pops and candy which worked well. For next season we hope to have purchased a popcorn machine.

We also sell insect repellent in case you forget to bring some, but the insects are really not that bad because we have tiki torches with citronella which seems to work pretty well.

We have a raffle which you can view on the IMS Virtual Studio and there is a countdown clock for the next film at that site also.

There are more pictures of the set-up for Cinema Under the Stars and you can also view a slide show presentation which will help you to locate the stage or find directions. To see this slide show go to;

The IMS Virtual Studio or The Shakespearean Journal.

Sponsorship program

  • It is clear that it is most appropriate to seek sponsorship for the entire season of films at Tamanend Park.  Therefore a budget will be developed and posted here as a means of informing our sponsors of the total cost of presenting films in Tamanend Park. 
  • It is expected that those persons who avail themselves of this program and attend the films, will contribute what they are able when attending a showing. 
  • The costs of presenting these films and developing new programs at the park, must be shared by all those persons who enjoy this entertainment.  
  • At some point, as soon as possible, we will be attempting to develop sufficient resources so that the performers and technicians can be paid for their contributions.  
  • We are striving to bring professional thespians into the park and thus, compensation must be a part of that scenario.  Your assistance with this is most gratefully appreciated.
Details regarding sponsorship will be posted here at some point.  In the meanwhile , contact Arthur Greisiger at imagemindagt@verizon.net to discuss your interest in sponsoring our program in whole or in part.
