Star Wars: The Force Awakens cocktails and lobby takeover at ArcLight Cinemas in Bethesda (Photos)

We are less than two weeks from the opening of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, and there's no chance of ignoring that fact in the barrage of publicity and marketing surrounding the film. You certainly can't ignore it in the lobby of ArcLight Cinemas in Bethesda's Westfield Montgomery Mall.

When you enter the 16-screen cineplex, you can't miss the floor-to-ceiling image of Kylo Ren and his infamous crossguard lightsaber on the Image Wall.

But wait, there's more. Try one of their Star Wars-inspired cocktails, if you can muscle Greedo aside at the theater's lobby bar.

Tickets are almost sold out for the 7:00 PM showtime on December 17. The remaining seats are down in the front rows below the screen.

STAR WARS - SHAKESPEARE-STYLE - IS COMING TO BETHESDA

Bethesda is about to find out what Jedi proverbs sound like in iambic pentameter, when Flying V Theatre brings its William Shakespeare's Star Wars play to town on Monday, February 17, at 8:00 PM.

No tickets will be sold - the show is a first come, first-served "pay-what-you-can" event at The Writer's Center at 4508 Walsh Street in downtown Bethesda.

Over 20 local actors will portray iconic Star Wars characters, speaking as if George Lucas were alive in the age of Shakespeare. But with fight choreography by Jonathan Ezra Rubin, the evening promises plenty of action, as well. The play is is written by Ian Doescher, and directed by Kevin Finkelstein.

Proceeds from the night will fund Flying V's new season, which will be announced that evening.
