tripadvisorWent to this theater for the first time to see Marty Supreme. This theatre is a hidden gem. Wish I would have found this small, clean, very friendly staff, theatre a long time ago. The area is very quaint and low-key. There is a wine bar upstairs in the theatre to relax and meet new people. The theatre is small, but comfortable, very clean, no large crowds and talking. Important to Support independent films and small theaters like this one. Highly recommended.
MoreThere are 5 theaters in this building. A couple of them only hold 25-40 people. It’s a great place to watch independent films. The events are stellar with big stars visiting this village. It can be difficult to get in to see the biggest stars - but usually there are opportunities. Popcorn good too.
MoreThis is a warm and cozy theater with a modern twist. The theaters are intimate with comfortable seating. many special screenings such as meet the performers are held here. they play many lesser known films and some Indies/ Documentaries so the selection may not always meet your needs unless you are a bit of a movie snob LOL.
MoreGreat venue with interesting titles. Great for seniors during weekdays. Very clean and reasonable. Comfortable seats. Parking can be a bit of an issue so show up early and stroll the shops.
MoreAlthough we have enjoyed this theatre over the years we are now spoiled by two boutique community supported theaters closer to home. The entrance and exit lines are very confusing and unorganized and the interior is in need of updating. Offering wine and craft beer for purchase would make it a much better date night experience..there is hope however as there was not an empty seat
