STONINGTON, CT — William and Casey Cyr Gash are about to open the Mystic Independent Theater. They hope to feature films that did not make the cut at various film festivals as well as live events.
The intimate 46-seat theater, which had been home to the now-defunct Stonington Film Society, has been renovated and will not only show independent films but host music and drama presentations, family celebrations, birthday parties, business meetings and other events.
It is all part of the couple’s diversified plan to ensure the economic success of the theater, which features tiered seats, a raised stage, adjustable lighting and top-quality video and sound systems.
