The credits have rolled for the final time at a local movie theater.
The ShowPlace ICON Theatre in Boston’s Seaport neighborhood closed its doors permanently on Monday after more than three years in business at 60 Seaport Blvd.
According to a joint statement from parent company Kerasotes ShowPlace Theatres and building owner WS Development, the economic impact of the coronavirus pandemic was the ultimate deciding factor in the theater closing.
“Due to the economic impact of the pandemic and despite collaborative efforts from both WS Development and Kerasotes ShowPlace Theatres to avoid such, it has been mutually agreed between both parties that Kerasotes ShowPlace Theatre will no longer operate the theatre at The Seaport,” the statement read. “WS Development will be evaluating next steps and timelines for the theatre in the near future.”
First opened in January 2018, ShowPlace ICON gave the Seaport a luxury theater that catered to an older, upscale crowd with adults-only screenings, a full service restaurant and bar, and elevated concessions like gourmet popcorn flavors designed by local chefs.
ShowPlace ICON was one of the theaters that reopened last summer when pandemic restrictions were temporarily loosened in Massachusetts, and the theater played host to in-person screenings for the Boston Film Festival in September 2020.
“It is with a heavy heart that we announced that effective immediately the ShowPlace ICON Theatre at the Seaport is closed permanently,” read a statement from the theater shared by the Fort Pointer Twitter account. “While we did everything we could to adjust to the constant challenges of the pandemic, ultimately it was not enough to remain open.”
ShowPlace ICON isn’t the only theater that has permanently shuttered as a result of the pandemic. In February, the New Hampshire-based Cinemagic theater chain announced it would close all eight of its locations, including its two Massachusetts cinemas in Salisbury and Sturbridge.
Please update, theatre became a triplex on December 9, 1983. RKO Century Warner also triplex it’s sister theatre the Green Acres Cinemas the same month. Grand Reopening ad posted.
Please nupdate in description, when it was the Rome Theatre, it became a twin in 1983 before it closed in 1987. They showed first run films until it closed.
PLEASE update, the two additional screens next to the main theatre. When it open 2005, it was a cafe IFC converted to make the two added theatres. Grand Opening ad posted.
Please rename, it’s Atrium Stadium Cinemas. Also, the theatre was expanded in 1997 to 9 screens. In 2003, it was taken over by new owners that spent a lot of money in the theatre. In 2004, it was expanded to 12 screens (The additional 3 screens where on added property). Around 2016, they added recliners and made two Dolby Atmos APEX screens. Once the APEX screens open, Studio 9 closed and the owners never renumbered the screens.
Please update, United Artists operated the theatre until 1981, became Independently Operated by Lesser. It Became a Twin in May of 1983, was independent until Clearview Cinemas bought the theatre in 1996. The Bow Tie Cinemas until they closed it and was taken over by the current owners. The main house downstairs has 167 seats and the upstair balcony The Clive has 40 seats and the Worby has the max 32 seats, but the room is like private party room.
Very annoyed that AMC won’t show Tenet in IMAX 70MM.It being showing in regular Digital. Angelika Village East is running it in 70MM DTS film, but AMC won’t let the people in New York City see it the Nolan wants you to see it. Guess it too expensive to run for only 50 people per showing.
