Actually, the main auditorium is almost “new” Shortly before they terminated their lease, Carmike nearly completed a total restoration of the big house. New seats. drapery and a sound system capable of SDDS and DTS was installed. Carmike left before installing new carpet. That and some minor cosmetic repairs are all that are needed to bring it back to original glory. Several years ago the louvered screen was removed due to age and replaced with a solid sheet screen. The new screen matches the dimensions and curve of the original but of course would be replaced in the event that our efforts to reopen the theater for Cinerama are successful.
