Vincent, in your intro you said it has the capacity to show films but has it been ussed as a movie theatre to qualify it as a Cinema Treasure?
The primary reason Playhouse on the Square is on Cinema Treasures is that it moved from the Memphian where it was previously listed. Playhouse also hosts part of the Indie Memphis Film Festival so films are shown there, though not as its primary function.
