While wandering through her rambling old house in her boring new town, Coraline (voiced by Dakota Fanning) discovers a hidden door to a fantasy version of her life. If she wants to stay in the fantasy, she must make a frighteningly real sacrifice.

Henry Selick (James and the Giant Peach, The Nightmare Before Christmas) adapted and directed the Hugo award-winning book by Neil Gaiman. Coraline is an ambitious stop-motion animated film and was released in 2009. It involved more than 500 people over four years, including 35 animators, to create this film. The film is rated PG for thematic elements, scary images, mild language, and suggestive humor.

General admission tickets ($12 adults, $8 youth 12 and under) are available online at http://www.phtww.org or by calling the box office at (509) 529-6500.

Additional precautions, such as required mask use, will be observed based on the latest guidance from state and county health departments.
