All aboard The Polar Express! The Long Center for the Performing Arts takes you to the North Pole in style during this free, encore showing the timeless classic movie The Polar Express. All you have to do is believe.


The Academy Award-winning team of Tom Hanks and director Robert Zemeckis (Forrest Gump, Cast Away) reunite for The Polar Express, an inspiring adventure based on the beloved children's book by Chris Van Allsburg. When a doubting young boy takes an extraordinary train ride to the North Pole, he embarks on a journey of self-discovery that shows him that the wonder of life never fades for those who believe.

One thing about trains—it doesn’t matter where you’re going. What matters is deciding … to get on! 

—Tom Hanks, Conductor in The Polar Express
