A New Christmas Classic Set in Christmas City!

See Our Community on the Big Screen this November and purchase tickets for Special Screening Event with Saint Nick of Bethlehem himself!

Bethlehem, Lehigh Valley, PA., November 15, 2024 – ArtsQuest is excited to show Spencer Folmar and Daniel Roebuck’s Saint Nick of Bethlehem at our Frank Banko Alehouse Cinemas!  The movie will be shown throughout the entire week of November 29.

And ArtsQuest, along with media partner 100.7 LEV, will be hosting a special screening event: Saint Nick of Bethlehem with Holiday Cookies and Cocoa on Sunday, Dec. 1 at 9:30 a.m. While enjoying your treats, have your photo taken with Santa’s official helper (Dan Roebuck as St. Nick), then head into the Frank Banko Alehouse Cinema for a brief talk back and watch the film. Doors open at 9:30 a.m. and the movie starts at 11 a.m. Get your tickets at steelstacks.org.

“I’m beyond excited to be able to welcome kids and families to this special screening of Saint Nick of Bethlehem and what better place than ArtsQuest,” said Daniel Roebuck, co-producer of the film. “Many years ago, I worked at Leh’s Department Store as the magician while the kids waited for Santa at their annual Breakfast with Santa Claus events. I was the warm-up act and now I get to be the big guy himself. I couldn’t be more excited to step into his boots, right here in the Christmas City!”

Saint Nick of Bethlehem filmed scenes at last years’ Christkindlmarkt and we can’t wait to see it on the big screen. The movie is an original story of a man who is distraught over losing his son and finds closure while discovering a new purpose when he takes on the role of Santa Claus.

What better place to shoot a Christmas movie than in the Christmas City itself! The movie will not only feature Christkindlmarkt, but also the Historic Hotel Bethlehem, The Kiffle Kitchen and many more Bethlehem staples.
