The Oceanwest Theatre is located at Champlin's Marina at New Harbor, on the opposite side of the island from Old Harbor, where ferries arrive from Point Judith and New London.

The building has a functional plain exterior, with a front of corrugated metal and beach-shingles. There is a garage-door along with several regular doors on the building's front. The theatre has been used for dramatic productions and for movies during the summer season.

Here is a 2004 photo of the Oceanwest Theatre.

The theatre doesn't have any real charm like the older Empire Theatre at Old Harbor and is less accessible than the Empire and is rather haphazard about promotion. There was no poster or exterior sign indicating Stealth was playing here when I went to see it. During the entire movie, the house lights were only half-dimmed, resulting in an over-bright house and creating an annoying glare on the screen. The screen had an irregular-edged black border. The sound seemed to emit from one inadequate overhead speaker. I counted approximately 175 seats in the theatre. The audience for the Sunday night movie consisted almost entirely of about 10 teenagers.
