(ASBURY PARK, NJ) -- The ShowRoom Cinema will present a one night only screening of the documentary The Lost Weekend: A Love Story on Friday, April 14 at 7:30pm. This new documentary explores the 18-month relationship (1973-1975) that John Lennon spent with May Pang, his Chinese American assistant turned lover (on Yoko Ono’s insistence).

With May’s help, Lennon reunited with his son Julian and had his most artistically and commercially productive period post-Beatles - with the albums “Mind Games,” “Walls and Bridges” - which included his only #1 Hit Single “Whatever Gets You Through the Night” - and “Rock and Roll.” During this period Lennon pursued successful collaborations with Elton John, David Bowie, Harry Nilsson, Mick Jagger, and Ringo Starr, to name a few. Pang chronicles it all revisiting her younger self, a naïve 22-year old experiencing her first unforgettable love.

Tickets are available now at showroomcinemas.com.

The ShowRoom Cinema, Asbury Park’s home to Movies & More, is located at 707 Cookman Avenue in Asbury Park, New Jersey.
