β€œCool little cinema with a comfortable cafe out front. The cinema seating is comfortable and the sound while good and loud was not pain inducing like some. It's tucked away in Wigan St, between Taranaki and Cuba Streets. My one criticism is patrons have to join the lollies/popcorn/cafe queue even if they have bought tickets on line, an automated ticket printer would cut queuing.”

β€œFabulous wee cinema, just right for our last night in the North Island, viewing "Primevera", the story set in 1750's Venice and girls orphenage where Vivaldi was the Maestro. Some adult themes and Italian/French with sub titles, but thoroughly recommend both the Theatre and the film.”
