I’ve been working at the GEM Theatre for 8 years coming up in February, and it is an awesome place to be at. My first major movie that I worked was “Ghost Rider” with Nicholas Cage in early 2007. Many of the relics of the past still accompany the theater, like the older style curtains, the art deco over the side speakers, and the old Century projector. I have been a projectionist since late 2007-early 2008 and I have seen the projection equipment change over time from 35mm to full digital. Right now we are using a digital projector, which has a beautiful picture with full 5.1 surround sound. I like the new projector for it’s automation and computer capabilities, but I miss the simplicity of the 35mm Century projector and how each different projectionist had his own way of making the transitions work.
The info on this site is a little behind, but you can find out all you want to know from our website at www.gem-theatre.com and I will provide some of the info as well. We are no longer cash only, as we do accept credit & debit cards from Visa, MasterCard, and Discover.
Movie Prices before 6PM are $4 for everyone, after 6PM $4 for children 2-12 (children under 2 are free) and seniors 55+ and $5 for adults. Summer Movie Matinees will be cheaper, but usually aren’t new/first run movies. You can preorder tickets online from www.movietickets.com or from our website at www.gem-theatre.com and we have an easy to use mobile site as well!
Concession prices are as follows: Fresh and Delicious GEM-Theatre Popcorn: $1.75 Small, $2.50 Medium, $4 Large.
Pepsi soda drinks: $1.75 Small, $2 Medium, $2.50 Large.
All Candy are $1 each.
Siberian Chill slushies are $2.50 Small and $3.50 Large.
Bottled Water, Gatorade and Green Teas are $2 each.
NEW DippinDots icecreams are $4 per pouch.
I grew up in this theatre, I’ve worked in thins theatre, I’ve brought dates to this theatre. It’s the greatest theatre in my opinion because it’s affordable and we get the majority of big releases. I hope all of you can visit and enjoy your time at Kannapolis' Jewel, the GEM Theatre!
