El Cortez Theater

MichaelKilgore - that seems to be from a different El Cortez located in Colorado. However, I had heard this El Cortez had a gas explosion in the early 40s that blew the front of the building off and was rebuilt.

Roger Katz – Noted :) – I’ll work to correct that.

FYI we recently made the switch to digital, but still are able to show film when needed.

Also since the change to digital, some of our prices have changed to: As of Nov 2014 Admission to the theater is just $6. Small popcorn $3 – Large popcorn $4 Candy $1 – Super Size Candy $2 Nachos $2 Bottled water $1

Starting today a Sunday evening show time has been added to accommodate the community.

The town was named after the TV show following some kind of contest years ago. I don’t recall what the original name of the town was.

The El Cortez Theater has been reopened (Feb. 2007) by its new owners Mark & Mary Giardetti. The 126 seat house has undergone significant renovations to the sound system and further improvements are planned in an ongoing effort to provide Sierra County with a much needed entertainment outlet for families. The theater plans to show New Releases of films PG13 and below. El Cortez is the only commercial screen within a 75 mile radius and its return (after 4 years} has been well received by the local community. Currently Friday and Saturday evenings and Sat. Matinees are scheduled.

STILL ASKING / ANYONE BEEN HERE
