This theatre was included in Marcus Theatres purchase of Movie Tavern and as such as of February 1, 2019 is now operated by Marcus Theatres. This theatre is now “Movie Tavern by Marcus Collegeville” and all relevant information is now on the Marcus Theatres website, www.marcustheatres.com.
I visited yesterday. The foyer hall leading to the auditoriums have pretty sconces and Art Deco doors to the auditoriums. Two auditoriums each have 56, 86, 100 seats, and 180 seats. Accompanying the digital projection was surround sound. The 86 seat auditorium that I was in, watching a movie, had a screen that appeared about 25 to 30 feet wide and with large, beautiful Art Deco sconces. When visiting one of the largest auditoriums, I was told the screen size there is 52 feet wide x 27 feet high. In addition to mainstream films, there is a classic series including The Godfather and Raiders of the Lost Ark. Weekend evening movies sell out. The midafternoon movie cost $8.50.
Here’s a report about the Movie Tavern in the Philadelphia Inquirer.
