Theater 1 (the MAIN THEATER) is our original 1914 auditorium with 900 seats split between the ORCHESTRA and a BALCONY (which for seating purposes we divide into LOWER and UPPER BALCONY). SEATING CHART [PDF] Our new screen is approximately 28'X16' when open for 1:85 aspect ratio films, and approximately 30'X14' for CinemaScope images. Other formats are easy to present with our movable masking. Our modern sound system features JBL speakers and Dolby Digital Sound, with 28 seperate surround speakers spread throughout the auditorium. Our projection booth contains two Philips Norelco DP-70 projectors capable of 35mm and 70mm film projection. The main theater was renovated in 2006 to feature a historically accurate paint scheme and brand new stage, screen and fire safety systems. Our orchestra seats are modern and comfortable, featuring 34" of leg room. The seats in our balcony were newly installed in August of 2009 and are also modern and comfortable, with 31" of leg room. Leg room is better in the Orchestra, so taller patrons may prefer the downstairs seating (though if you do like sitting upstairs and are tall, we suggest Rows AA, HH, or LL which have more leg room).
Cinema 2 is located in the basement and seats 126 people. The screen size is approximately (18' x 12'). Cinema 3 is also located in the basement and seats 188 people. This auditorium features Dolby Surround Stereo and the screen size is approximately (25' x 15'). Cinema 4 is located on the second floor and seats 116 people.

Our 35mm film projectors are serviced regularly by BOSTON LIGHT & SOUND to ensure the best presentation possible with our equipment.
