Friday, March 20, thru Saturday, March 22: Cinema Worcester at the Frontroom Presents “Sirāt”


Cinema Worcester in conjunction with the WCUW Frontroom presents “Sirāt”, a film by Óliver Laxe.

A father (Sergi López) and his son arrive at a rave deep in the mountains of southern Morocco. They are searching for Mar — daughter and sister — who vanished months ago at one of these endless, sleepless parties. Surrounded by electronic music and a raw, unfamiliar sense of freedom, they hand out her photo again and again.


Hope is fading, but they push through and follow a group of ravers heading to one last party in the desert. As they venture deeper into the burning wilderness, the journey forces them to confront their own limits.

“Sirāt” is a harrowing, exhilarating dance of Death. An intensely agonizing journey reveals both the pitiless nature of fate and the stubborn persistence of compassion.” – Justin Change, The New Yorker

Run time is 2 hours. R (some violent content, language, and drug use).


Showtimes: Friday, March 20, 7 pm; Saturday March 21, 1 pm; and Sunday, March 22, 1 pm.


Tickets at the door: $12 general admission, $10 senior/student with ID, $9 for WCUW members.

The WCUW Frontroom is located at 910 Main St., Worcester MA. Parking in the Clark University lot across the street, or on the street.

Saturday, March 28: Muck and the Mires, with Muddy Ruckus opening, at the Frontroom


This is a very rare area appearance of Muck and the Mires! Catch them right here in Worcester before they head back to Europe.

Boston’s Muck and the Mires have been described by legendary Runaways producer Kim Fowley as “a mix of the 1964 Beatles and The Ramones.” Fowley went on to produce several of the band’s releases, helping shape their signature blend of British Invasion meets high-energy punk.


The group first gained international attention when Little Steven Van Zandt crowned them the #1 Garage Rock Band in the US during his MTV Battle of the Bands. Since then, Muck and The Mires have taken their electrifying live show around the globe, with performances across the US, UK, EU, South America, Canada, Mexico, and Japan.

They’ve shared the stage with some of rock’s most iconic names, including The Sonics, The New York Dolls, Ray Davies (The Kinks), The Flamin’ Groovies, The Stooges, and even a Beatle—Pete Best.

Muck and the Mires are Muck (formerly of The Voodoo Dolls and The Queers) on vocals and guitar, Jessie Best on drums, Pedro Mire (ex–The Apehangers) on lead guitar, and bassist John Quincy Mire.


When not touring, the band continues to rack up airplay around the world. They’ve been featured multiple times on SIRIUS XM’s Underground Garage, where they’ve twice earned the coveted title of “Coolest Song in the World”—first with “I’m Your Man” and most recently with “Beat Revolution,” the title track from their seventh full-length album.


Special guest Muddy Ruckus open the show! They are an American rock duo known for their raw blend of punk blues, Americana grit, and psychedelic rock energy. With Erika Stahl on suitcase-kick drums and Ryan Flaherty running guitar through multiple amps for a full-band sound, the duo creates explosive live performances that feel larger than life. Their music has been praised for its darkly poetic lyrics, swampy grooves, and high-voltage stage presence — earning them festival slots, national tours, and a devoted underground following.


Showtime: Saturday, March 28, 7 pm. Doors open at 6:30. Tickets $20 cash or Venmo at the door.


Light refreshments will be served. Or, visit Fantastic Pizza/Grub Guru next door for pizza, Indian food, and more, to eat-in or to bring back.


The WCUW Frontroom is located at 910 Main St., Worcester MA. Parking in the Clark University lot across the street, or on the street.
