Harry Potter and the Half Blood Price Brings its Magic to Maryland Science Center
Baltimore’s only true-IMAX theater offers exclusive extended scenes, and 3D action
With special 3D footage and extended scenes filmed exclusively for IMAX, it’s worth the wait to see Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince at the Maryland Science Center beginning Wednesday, July 29, 2009. The Maryland Science Center’s St. John Properties IMAX Theater is the only Baltimore-area theater to present the latest installment of the Harry Potter series in the superior quality and rich detail of the true IMAX format.
The drama of Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince unfolds on the Maryland Science Center’s five-story IMAX screen with the malicious Lord Voldemort and his menacing Death Eaters tightening their grip on both the Muggle and wizarding worlds. As evil forces mount, Albus Dumbledore swiftly trains Harry to take down Voldemort’s seemingly insurmountable defenses, as the deciding battle between good and evil looms closer now than ever before. Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince includes Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter), Rupert Grint (Ron Weasley), and Emma Watson (Hermione Granger) reprising their roles in this most recent adaptation of the beloved J.K. Rowling literary series.
The Maryland Science Center is located at 601 Light Street at Baltimore’s Inner Harbor. For information and tickets, visit www.marylandsciencecenter.org or call the 24-Hour Information Line at 410-685-5225.
