Can’t decide what to watch on TV anymore? You’re invited to a beloved Greenville tradition: the 2025 Reedy Reels Film Festival. Every year, lovers of cinema look forward to this 3 day showing of independent films. Reedy Reels receives hundreds of films, usually from students and amateur filmmakers, and it selects the best films to show. Check out the schedule online to see film descriptions and trailers. Ticket prices vary, so be sure to check postings at the link below. Shake up your movie watching experience, and let Reedy Reels decide what’s playing this weekend.
Cliques. Bullying. Humor. The popular 2004 rom com, Mean Girls, has it all. Check out a live showing of Mean Girls JR. at the Mauldin Cultural Center this weekend. Join Cady as she leaves the African jungle of her childhood, only to be thrust into a new jungle: high school. When Cady attempts to go undercover to make the mean girls of the school pay, she discovers the hidden cost of duplicity and social climbing. Tickets are $20 and refreshments will be sold before, during, and after the show.
