To do this we are unable to reduce our admission price. We feel you want the better pictures and are willing to pay our established SUNDAY AND MONDAY PRICE FOR THEM. # , To further add to your comforts while enjoying a good show, we have equipped our theatre with new cushioned seats, a new life size screen and nw machine equipment.
