The creators of the beloved “Toy Story” films re-open the toy box and bring moviegoers back to the delightful world of our favorite gang of toy characters in “Toy Story 3.” As Andy prepares to depart for college, Buzz, Woody and the rest of his loyal toys are troubled about their uncertain future. Directed by Lee Unkrich (co-director of “Toy Story 2” and “Finding Nemo”), “Toy Story 3” is a comical new adventure in Disney Digital 3D that lands the toys in a room full of untamed tots who can’t wait to get their sticky little fingers on these “new” toys. It’s pandemonium as they try to stay together, ensuring “no toy gets left behind.” Meanwhile, Barbie comes face to plastic face with Ken (yes, that Ken).

Rex Theatre Mission Statement
The Family that operates the Rex Theatre intends that this Theatre be used to the betterment of the community of Glenwood by offering the stage and auditorium as a place for the youth of the area a place to grow, develop and perform their talents free of charge. We stress a high moral character development as a goal. When one of the other area venue's such as Church, School, or Amphitheatre are not available the Rex Theatre could be used by groups, organizations or individuals needing a stage and auditorium to perform. To that end we will work with other area venues when they are not able to accommodate requested performances at their facilities. We will still show movies on the weekend and, as always since owned by this family, never show a "R" rated film. We will be working on light, sound and stage systems in order to get this accomplished over the 2009 and 2010 years and will hope to be the "Rex Performing Arts Center" by May of 2011. |
