Helmed by internationally renowned DJ-producer Behrouz and his partner Megan, Do Not Sit has earned a reputation for offering top-tier guest acts and underground sensibilities in a less pretentious setting and with a more accessible cover.

The Only Theater In Miami Where You Can Watch “Twisters” In 4DX. And if you haven’t experienced the immersive thrill for yourself, don’t fret! The film is returning to 4DX for one week only, starting August 30. And it won’t be the only disaster film on the bill — 1996’s “Twister” is getting the same treatment, making for an epic double feature! What is 4DX? Unlike your average theater experience, 4DX practically puts you in the film with the help of special effects. You’ll sit in a motion-enabled seat that will move you along with every twist (see what we did there) and turn on the screen. And when a tornado comes into frame, you’ll be met with wind, rain, fog and scents perfectly synced with the film. Basically, you’ll be storm chasing alongside Daisy Edgar-Jones and Glen Powell!
