Tickets are available for streaming and in-person attendance. Friday through Sunday. $35 in-person.
‘Kung Fu Hustle’ at Suns Cinema: The movie lineup at Suns Cinema is focused on martial arts in March, and it wouldn’t be martial arts month without a showing of the 2004 film “Kung Fu Hustle.” Riding off the success of “Shaolin Soccer,” director Stephen Chow helped usher in the modern day martial arts film with “Kung Fu Hustle,” which features older actors famous for their roles in 1970s Hong Kong action films. The film, set in the 1940s, is about two criminals, Sing and Bone, who want to join the Axe Gang, but instead end up making a bunch of enemies. 7 p.m. $10.
