Sell-outs at the Alamo?
In the last few months it has happened several times. I apologize to those we had to turn away, but I'm happy to see folks coming out to see a show!
Why is this happening?
First: We are showing good movies. Jane does a wonderful job of identifying excellent movies which will appeal to our audience.
Second: Open Captions on Sunday afternoon. Open captions are like subtitles but for a movie in English. It has turned out to be quite popular and a growing number of patrons are making it a habit. Of course, we also have infrared headsets at all shows providing a private volume boost for those that prefer it.
Third: Six shows per week, or more. People are liking the flexibility to go to dinner before the late show or after the early show.
Fourth: Wide variety of drink choices. We carry Coke AND Pepsi AND Moxie and many other drinks, plus coffee, tea, beer and wine.
Fifth: Excellent popcorn with real butter! We have customers who just come in for popcorn on their way home.
Sixth: Dolby Digital 7.1 Surround Sound with a Bose Acoustic Wave Cannon sub-woofer which translated into English means "Really good sound!"
Seventh: Phil and the conscientious staff who will do their best to take care of you and keep this theatre spotless.
