The North Bend Theatre is rolling out the red carpet for an unforgettable night of cult‑cinema chaos on Saturday, August 22, when actor, author, and fan‑favorite Greg Sestero returns to North Bend for a double feature of THE ROOM and BIG SHARK.
Known worldwide for his role as Mark in The Room and for chronicling its creation in The Disaster Artist, Sestero brings his signature blend of humor and behind‑the‑scenes insight into one of the most enthusiastic fan communities in the Pacific Northwest.
This appearance carries special meaning for the historic 1941 theatre. Greg Sestero is one of the few visiting stars whose handprints are immortalized in the sidewalk outside the North Bend Theatre. The theatre wanted to honor his commitment not only to independent films, but independent theatres as well.
Fans can literally place their hands where his once pressed into wet cement, a fun tradition that has become a hallmark of the theatre’s growing Walk of Fame. The installation has become a magnet for movie lovers and Twin Peaks tourists alike, and Sestero’s square is among the most photographed. His return gives audiences a rare chance to celebrate the star both on screen and right outside the front doors.
The August 22nd event will feature a screening of the cult classic THE ROOM, followed by the creature‑feature comedy BIG SHARK. Between films, attendees can meet Greg, get merch signed, and enjoy photo opportunities with the actor.
With Sestero’s handprints gleaming just steps away and the theatre’s vintage marquee lighting up downtown North Bend, the evening promises to be a one‑of‑a‑kind celebration of fandom, filmmaking, and the wonderfully weird legacy of THE ROOM.
