The following are events planned on the South Coast in coming weeks.

Egyptian Theatre shows classics on big screen

The Egyptian Theatre in downtown Coos Bay will feature  “In the Heat of the Night” at 7 tonight. The 1967 movie, rated PG-13, stars Sidney Poitier as Detective Virgil Tibbs. Even though Tibbs is an Northern African-American detective and at first accused of the murder, he helps a Southern town solve the case and in doing so helps bridge the racism gap.

The musical “The Firefly” (1937) will play at 3 p.m. on Sunday. The movie chronicles a forbidden love story between two spies during the war between Napoleon and Spain.  

General movie admission costs $4, $3.50 for seniors and those 12 and under, and $3 for members.

The box office opens one hour before show times. For more information, those interested can call 269-8650 or go to the Web site at http://www.egyptian-theatre.com.
