Description: 

 

Join us for a double feature at the newly renovated IMAX® 3D Cinesphere!

 

Showing at 12:30am is Mysteries of Egypt. Mysteries of Egypt transports audiences to a distant time and place where the Nile River Valley cuts an emerald swath through the desert sands. With its dedicated team of scientists, Mysteries of Egypt explores the magnificent architectural feats, awe-inspiring legends, and amazing history of the ancient Egyptian civilization. Float down the lush Nile and soar over the Valley of the Kings, as stars Omar Sharif and Kate Maberly ("The Secret Garden") explore the latest discoveries and uncover many of the mysteries that surround these ancient peoples.  

 

After a short intermission, enjoy Everest. Everest takes audiences across creaking icefalls and gaping chasms, up dangerous, towering cliffs, through a harrowing rescue, and into the danger zone of oxygen-thin altitude. The 40-minute film also reveals how this tallest mountain was formed and continues to evolve, how high altitude challenges a climber's physical and mental capabilities, and how Sherpa culture permeates the Mount Everest experience.

 

Enjoy two movies for one price! Admission is $9.50 including HST.
