The Ragtag Cinema’s original name was called the “Ragtag Cinemacafe” when it first opened in July 2000, but the name was shorten to just Ragtag Cinema in early 2001.
The name is, I believe, a reference to the organization’s origins. It began as a film series without a permanent home specializing in foreign and classic films. Most films were shown at the Blue Note. Eventually a few were also shown at the Missouri Theatre, beginning a lengthy collaboration. It was perhaps several years later that they opened their own cinema at it’s first location on 10th Street, and another five to ten years before they moved to their current location.
MY GCC manager’s dark blue coat would be called RAGTAG right now.Wonder if they would want to display it.
Interesting Name.
This theatre is the inspiration of the great Moxie Cinema in Springfield, Missouri.
