Just an update on the three screens at this theater (from an employee):
Both the Lincoln Financial and the Stonyfield Cinemas are now each equipped with a 2K Christie Digital Projector, which can screen DCPs as well as DVDs, Blu-ray, 4K UHD Blu-ray, and various digital files.
The Jaclyn Simchik Memorial Cinema went through a renovation in early 2017, and now seats only 22. The seats are more comfortable now, and the room’s atmosphere is more in line with that of the two larger auditoriums. I believe the digital projector in the Simchik is a Sony VPL-HW40ES, which can output in 4K and even 3D, although we mostly screen standard exhibition Blu-rays and DVDs.
According to CWalczak’s link and a Google search, the correct spelling of the architect firm is Sheerr McCrystal Palson Architects of New London NH. They describe this cinema as being in the basement of the Capitol Commons, with no outside windows.
Red River Theatres opened in October 2007 after 7 years of planning and fund-raising. There is no Red River in that part of New Hampshire; the name comes from the John Wayne movie “Red River”.
The third screen (Simchik Memorial) seats 48 and the seats are not fixed so the room can be cleared for meetings and conferences. Yes, this is a not-for-profit operation and it’s possible to join their organization and be a member and supporter.
