“Independence Day” stars an ensemble cast that includes Will Smith, Bill Pullman, Jeff Goldblum, Vivica Fox, Mary McDonnell, Judd Hirsch, Margaret Colin, Randy Quaid, Robert Loggia, James Rebhorn, Harvey Fierstein, and Harry Connick, Jr.
Aliens arrive on July 2, 1996, deploying multiple saucers that take position over Earth’s major cities. The aliens launch a coordinated attack, decimating several cities around the world. Humans begin their counterattack on July 3 but are unsuccessful. Facing superior weaponry and technology, humanity comes together and attacks again on July 4, Independence Day.
“Independence Day” received the Academy Award for Best Visual Effects, and the Grammy Award for Best Instrumental Composition Written for a Motion Picture. It has a positive 75% rating on Rotten Tomatoes and was rated the second-greatest summer film of the previous 20 years in a 2010 Entertainment Weekly readers poll, behind Jurassic Park.

More than 25 years later, the organization continues to promote the Theatre as an integral part of the Stockton community and the “Crown Jewel” of downtown Stockton’s revitalization efforts.
