If watching Donald Trump interrupt Hillary Clinton and drink water while she does the shimmy from the privacy of your own home again sounds like too tall an order, perhaps you'd prefer to watch the 2nd presidential debate among dozens of strangers in a dark movie theater?

The town hall-style debate takes place this Sunday night in St. Louis, but it will be streaming live into movie theaters around the country at the same time. Six Chicago-area theaters will be broadcasting the debate, including two on the North Side.

Admission is free. It starts at 9 p.m. EST (so 8 p.m. here), and will be moderated by ABC's Martha Raddatz and CNN's Anderson Cooper.

Chicago-area theaters:
Regal Webster Place 11 at 1471 W. Webster Ave.
Regal City North Stadium 14 IMAX at 2600 N. Western Ave.
The Regal Lincolnshire Stadium 21 and IMAX, 300 Parkway Drive.
Regal Lake Zurich 12, 755 S. Rand Road, Lake Zurich, IL.
Regal Cantera Stadium 17 at 28250 Diel Road, Warrenville, IL.
Regal Bolingbrook Stadium 12 at 1221 W. Boughton Road, Bolingbrook, IL.
