Before the current Mattituck theatre there was one on the opposite side of the road a short distance away. What they did was construct a small, metal Quonset hut and put on a “fancy” facade with a “pointed” marquee. At the point was a large “M”. The building, with observable marquee is still in tact. The next time I’m in the area I’ll make notes of the address current occupant, and post it. I’d do it now but once something is up I don’t believe we have the facility to make updates, only comments. Is this correct?

I haven’t been back to Mattituck in a number of years, but would like to know if the old theatre building is still standing, and if the current tenants have kept the old marquee

Per my comments above the theatre is still standing. Although the marquee is still in place the theatre name has been removed. As I said, it’s very obvious what it was. As my computer skills improve, and I establish the old theatre on this site I may even take a picture.

The old theater is now a sporting goods store called East End Sporting Goods. The “M” is still on the marquee.

And if you’ll notice, I added the old theatre to the site a couple of weeks ago. I was inside and way pointed out some of the remnants of the old theatre hidden in a storage area.

Since I was in the area I stopped in at the theatre today since it was open. I hoped to find out a. whether additional space was added to the original theatre footprint when additional screens were added and, b. the seating capacity of each of the auditoriums. The manager met me at the door, was unwilling to answer any questions and asked me to leave. Must have been trained by the former owners of the Westbury. However, it looked to me that the auditoriums to the left of the lobby MIGHT be additional space since, from the exterior of the building, the higher roof portion is to the right, presumably the original space.

I just started going to this theater in 2012, first seeing Moonrise Kingdom. Nice small theaters, always keeping a sweet art film on the roster. A calm place to get lost for a few hours. In the mall, a great ice cream store on one side, a great Chinese take-out/sit-down on the other. Mix'em all together for a pleasant visit.

Can you find out how many seats and inform CT accordingly?

As you can see above I tried to get that but encountered a really stiff-nosed manager worthy of the old Westbury.

Visited here for the first time tonight. The place is a labyrinth of corridors leading to surprisingly large and well appointed auditoriums. I don’t know if all this was achieved within the space of the original theater or whether the property was expanded. The manager didn’t either. My only complaint was that the sound from the adventure film next door spilled over into my auditorium.

Seating is as follows:
#1 241
#2 159
#3 162
#4 68
#5 68
#6 74
#7 235
#8 215
