Welcome To Kenmare
The community has much to offer whether
you stop for an hour, a day or longer.
The Kenmare Theatre
The new Kenmare Theatre shows the best of current release movie
titles. The smell of fresh-popped popcorn once again permeates the air of the newly
renovated Kenmare movie theatre.
The new Kenmare Theatre was
opened in the spring of 1999 in the same building as the old theatre. Much of the old is
gone, however, replaced with new. The front of the building has new tinted glass doors.
The concession stand is new. There are new handicap accessible bathrooms adjoining the
front lobby. Everything in the viewing area of the theatre is new.
The new comfortable seats each have cup holders. The walls are lined in
maroon satin drapery. And, the 10 foot
by 20
foot movie screen is new, as is the stereo surround sound system. The projector is newly
rebuilt.
"This is the nicest little theatre in the state," proclaimed the
theatre contractor who installed the new equipment.
Show times are Friday and Saturday at 7:00 and 9:15 pm, and Sunday and Monday at 7:00 pm.
Special show times and matinees are also scheduled. Call 385-4433 for current movie titles
and show times.
The Kenmare Theatre is classified as a "first-run move-over"
theatre, meaning it can feature current 
movie
titles within two to four weeks of their release from the studios.
Future plans for the theatre include restoring the glory to the original neon
marquee on the front of the building.
