“How to Survive a Plague” will be shown Wednesday and “The Bad News Bears” on Saturday at the Remarkable Drive-In.

WESTPORT — Documenting the “plague” of AIDS, and coaching a “bear” of a Little League team — two very different films scheduled to light up the big screen at the Remarkable Drive-In this week.  

Ticket proceeds benefit the Remarkable Theater’s goal of opening a non-profit movie theater in downtown Westport that will employ people with disabilities.

The drive-in screen is located in the parking lot at 50 Imperial Ave.

Tickets can be purchased at the Remarkable Theater’s website here.
