    Small Startup Looking for a Theater

    Greetings Everyone.

    I am spearheading a startup venture. The Startup is simply this, “To Open and Operate a Vaudeville Era Theater”. I have come up with a concept which will revolutanize theater operations. The concept is not for public consumption so I can’t post it, however under the right circumstances (non disclosure) I would be willing to discuss it with you.

    For proper implementation, this venture requires a theater which is in decent architectural/structural condition, the theater MUST have a stage and a balcony, an orchestra pit would be nice but not mandatory.

    I am in the process of selling my house to make this happen, I personally own a very large collection of Public Domain films as well as all the equipment needed to start 3 theaters (and allow them to operate to my specifications).

    Cutting to the point, at the present time I could potentially purchase a theater in an outer lying area and make this venture a reality, however if I could shy away from selling off my house I would prefer it.

    Here’s a proposition, if you like the sound of it then let’s talk, if you don’t like what I’ve written, no flames, I apologize for wasting the bandwidth.

    I propose the following:

    In search of Art Deco space in NYC…

    My not-for-profit theatre company is seeking a unique Art Deco/Moderne space (theatre/cinema/hall/large room, etc) in Manhattan for our stage adaptation of the 1932 Ernst Lubitsch film TROUBLE IN PARADISE.

    Perhaps an unused Deco screening room or ballroom or cafe within a larger building? Mid-town area is preferred, although we’ll consider other areas.

    Any thoughts?

    Thompson Square Theatre Info?

    CHARLESTOWN, MA — Hello Group!

    Hoping someone can point me to any information about this theater – history, photos etc.

    Have been able to find almost nothing except that the address, 179 Main Street, now seems to be the Branch Public Library, built about 1970. Urban renewal strikes again?

    Thanks!

    Oldest Operating Art House/Rep House in the US?

    “A question— would anyone happen to know what the oldest still-in-operation art house/ rep theater in the US is…? I have a feeling it might be my local favorite, Cambridge MA’s Brattle Theater, and wonder if anyone could confirm or correct this notion.

    Thanks,

    Paul.

    Cup holders at a reasonable pricee

    Hi everyone. I love this site but I need some help from you all. I am looking to purchase some inexpensive cup holders for some old used Irwin seats that I purchased from someone on this site. She had no idea except to go back to Irwin.

    I had a web site that sold the low end… plane Jane type for $4.00 each.. BUT my computer crashed and I cannot find it or its name anywhere on my computer. So I am starting from scratch. Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks
