Additional Info

Nearby Theaters

This theatre was located in downtown Wisconsin Dells on the south side of Broadway. It opened on November 6, 1987 with Lou Diamond Phillips in “La Bamba”. It was closed on November 18, 1999 with Ashley Judd in “Double Jeopardy”. Closure was caused because the Desert Star multiplex was built near the interstate in Lake Delton. I remember seeing “Prancer” here when it first came out. It was later torn down and the Bavarian Village/German Glockenspiel now occupies the site.

he funny thing I remember about this theater was it only had 1 projector and it sat about 50 or 60 people. It was just a big square room. Every movie had an intermission while they changed reels. As soon as a multiplex opened, there was no way it could have survived. Its baffling how it lasted as long as it did, honestly.

The 100-seat Chalet Cinema opened its doors on November 6, 1987 with “La Bamba”, and closed on November 18, 1999 with “Double Jeopardy” due to the opening of the Desert Star Cinema nearby.
