A membership for me would not be practical due to the fact I would have to travel 2 hours each way to get to the cinema.
I was able to go there for the American Hustle preview screening last month. I was sort of disappointed that not only the director appearance was in the screen as opposed to in person, the performance was recorded the preceding evening a far cry from my dream of the event the prior evening which featured an in person appearance by Jennifer Lawrence. The evening was still enjoyable and worth the trip. I was quite impressed in how the curtain opened just at the start.
I was also disappointed that the Sundance screening would be of a documentary as opposed to a Comedy or drama film. Had it not been the Bulger film I would have gotten tickets.
The theater stayed open till mid 1998,a few months after the Lowell Showcase opened. Even with a $3.50 bargain night,it could not compete despite showing many of the same films.
This theater had three auditoriums. Cinema 1 had 140 seats and was all in blue. Cinema 2 the large one had a total of 300 seats and was all in red (not too unlike the AMC/Lowes theaters in Methuen,and the third screen had a mere 100 seats and was all in yellow.
It originally opened with a $2.25 night admission with 75 cents for children and matinees.
The Merrimac Valley Christan film festival started here in 93.
Since the renovations took place (I was just there last weekend) the sign and the AMC website lists is as just AMC.
Boston and Danvers are still Lowes AMC
Now JUST AMC
The Lowes name is gone from this theater.
NOW Reserved Seating Renovations continue and should be complete next month
No Hollywood films here lately perhaps due to the fact they still use film
This building has not been demolished
At its peak there were 8 screens
Now closed

Grants actually stayed in downtown Lawrence until 1976.
A crappy cinema that showed good films.
I would like to see double features. :)
I had never been here until yesterday.
This is a fantastic theater.
