At Classic Cinemas, they are that company. Their theatres occupy historical buildings throughout the Chicago area. When these buildings were acquired by Classic Cinemas many were in states of disrepair. They've spent countless hours restoring them to their original splendor, preserving as much of the original architecture as possible. The result are unique movie theatres unlike any you will find. Theatres that echo of the golden age of moviegoing and invoke memories of days gone past. But don't let the package fool you. All of our theatres are equipped with the very latest in sound and projection technology. The result is Chris, Shirley and Willis Johnson comfortable, modern moviegoing experience that is truly unique.
