The Roxy Cinema 4 is not listed on CT. There is a web site for theatres in Kansas and the Chanute Cinema I & II is listed but not showing any movies. If you have the info on the Roxy why not add it.
Thanks Chuck. I don’t see the Roxy Cinema 4 listed on Cinema Treasures.
LM, the Cinema at 309 is closed, closed when the new Roxy 4 opened. According to the B&B web site it is at 302 East Main St. so that would put it across the street from the original old theatre.
This theater is not listed on the B&B Theatres website. A new four screen theater was built by B&B Theatres at 320 East Main Street. This theater might be closed. Press release
