Official site

The Music Box screens all of Twin Peaks with archival commercial breaks over five days.

The Music Box is screening David Lynch and Mark Frost's original Twin Peaks from the pilot through the final episode, with curator Daniel Knox's archival 'commercial breaks' between episodes. Friday is Season 1, Saturday and Sunday cover Season 2, and the series closes Tuesday with Fire Walk with Me on 35mm.

What to expect

Long daily screening blocks in Theater 1 with announced bathroom breaks and dinner breaks. Saturday's dinner break includes a live Great Horned Owl from the Stillman Nature Center, and the weekend nights end with special or secret shows.

  • Friday starts at 1 p.m. with the pilot; Saturday and Sunday start at 11:30 a.m.
  • The theater says episode start times are approximate.
  • A four-day pass for Seasons 1 and 2 is also sold.
  • Fire Walk with Me and the pilot encore play Tuesday, September 22.
