Boardman's Art Theatre

Good: Great sound and picture. Discount for students. Good movies.. Bad: I can't think of much.... Other: The theatre has recently changed owners. It is going to be showing slightly different films and is going to be run differently. Mr. Boardman was the last owner, and it is now being taken over by some other person. Mr. Boardman did a great job, though.. more

It is very nice that this place is able to survive during these years. Not many Americans are interested in non Hollywood movies so it is very difficult to maintain such a place. It is certainly one of the legacies in U-C. They charge around $5 -$6 for each tickets. Have imported many international movies. more

This is a great little theater that shows independent and foreign films not usually available to a small town audience. It changed owners a few years ago and the new owner completely upgraded the sound system. It has one theater, and they play one or two movies every week. While the tickets are slightly more expensive than your average multiplex, they do offer a student discount with ID. The snack counter is varied, offering, pretzels, pizza, tea, and coffee in addition to the usual popcorn and soda. They host special events, such as a mummy movie festival, midnight horror movies every weekend in October, a documentary festival, and special showings of films with question and answer periods with the directors. This theater offers many experiences that typical small town audiences never get a chance to participate in. Go give that indie documentary a shot now! more
