Texas-Based Alamo Drafthouse Cinema Chain to Expand to Boston Early 2023 - Eater Boston
"Alamo Drafthouse Cinema, a wildly popular, Texas-based movie theater chain with three dozen locations, is opening a new location in the Seaport District of Boston, taking over the former ShowPlace Icon Theatre space on Seaport Boulevard. Known for offering full meals during screenings, a solid selection of beer and cocktails, and a strict no-tolerance code of conduct, this will be the company's first New England location. The new venue will have 10 screens, seating nearly 800 patrons. Additionally, it will include a separate full-service bar named the Press Room, decorated with vintage movie ad plates. The company's expansion comes after a period of restructuring following a Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing and leadership changes." - Rachel Leah Blumenthal
