Hollywood films “Outbreak” and “The Majestic” were filmed in Ferndale—and this month you have the chance to watch them right here at Ferndale Repertory Theatre! “Outbreak” screens Saturday, August 5, followed by ”The Majestic” on August 12.

The Rep also plans to show “Singin' in the Rain” and “Dreamgirls” during this summer movie series (see the theatre's Facebook page for more info).

Check out these photos from the shoots of “Outbreak” (which premiered in 1995) and “The Majestic” (2001), courtesy of the Ferndale Enterprise Souvenir Edition.
