For nearly 95 years, the Music Box Theatre has been a haven for countless passionate moviegoers, providing unique programming 365 days a year. Described in 1929 as a place of “lasting beauty and great durability,” we’re still going strong with our 100th birthday on the horizon.
But time, even for a cherished landmark, leaves its mark. All those wonderful audiences, all those memories, and all that cinema have taken their toll on the space. So, as our birthday approaches, we're embarking on a major revitalization of our main 740-seat auditorium, to keep the Music Box a community institution long into the future. Have no fear...we might be getting some work done, but we’ll still be the same Music Box you know and love.
Here are a few things you can expect from the revitalization project:
- New auditorium seats (with cupholders!)
- Improved auditorium lighting
- Refinished flooring & new carpeting
- Refurbishment of our original proscenium arch
- Expanded ADA capabilities with T-Coil Hearing Loop System
