Love this theater! They are currently operating at 25% capacity, to adhere to social distancing guidelines. We saw Beetlejuice in a theater of 5, and had an excellent time. Cant wait for my next visit!

One of my absolute favorite things that I did while in New Orleans. To be honest, I had not had high expectations as I chose to do this since it was one of the only businesses open for COVID. I was blown away by the atmosphere inside. The chandelier, old movie posters, classical music playing. It was so much fun!

Following all restrictions. Employees very friendly and it was nice to have someplace special to take my daughter for her birthday. The employee even put up a happy birthday on the big screen- nice touch.

Very nice theater and atmosphere great prices old school movie feel

Over 100 years old and you can feel the history before you even get inside. I went to an afternoon matinee on a weekday and met an elderly gentleman who used to go there as a young boy and told stories of how he used to throw popcorn from the balcony down onto the people below and how many films hes seen there over the years, and I watched him almost tear up as he reminisced.I paid $6 to see a new release film bit they show old classics and indy films as well. Service was super friendly and Im so glad I went. It was 80 degrees outside but freezing during the film so bring a sweater.

Love this local venue! Its a gem! Quiet crowd and great service! It been operating forever

The staff is always friendly here. This theater also hosts a wide variety of special events, from film fests to one-off screenings by the NOLA Horror Film Fest, to premieres by local filmmakers, such as Terror Optics Films. They also do limited runs of different themes, for example, films by a certain director each week for a month. The classics series are always nice, too. All of this is in addition to the current blockbusters. Concessions has the typical treats, but there is also a coffee bar; and this original, one-screen neighborhood theatre is also BYOB.

This is the best kept local jewels!

Went here for a midnight showing of Rocky Horror Picture Show with a shadow cast and everything was awesome. The theater was very clean (despite us throwing rice and bread and cards and toilet paper) and the staff were all very kind and patient. The theater is a little hidden gem on prytania street that had been standing for over 100 years. Its small but not well known so it should never be too busy. Absolutely recommend checking it out.

Super charming and old fashioned theater and concessions. Went to see Knives Out and it was perfect! Free refills on the large popcorn.

Open since 1914! One screen, old fashioned sloped seating. An awesome place to see any film.

Love this theater, its a older structure but very comfortable, clean and cool. Service was nice and informal

Such an amazing movie theater. Love it and my kids do too.

Whether youre going to see a classic film or one of the new blockbusters, this cinema certainly has charm. Aside from having the best popcorn known to man, the staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming. I also love the fact that they have old classic decor as well as the fact they pay tribute to the deceased owner in many ways. On the stage, you can still see the organ that used to be used in silent films. do yourself a favor and step back in time at this perfectly quaint movie theater!

Amazingly old feel to this theater. Like going back in time and the movies they show are Oscar winners a different kind.

This is a nice theatre. I saw The Rocky Horror Picture Show here for the first time and they had nice seating and a good set up for the shadow cast, as they had both a stage and a screen, both of which were very visible despite being much shorter than average.

Nostalgia at its best

We had a blast we watched Disneys new Lion King. very fun. I had bought tickets online for the previous week and life happened. The held my tickets at the box office. Very nice staff and a cool vibe. Will be going back soon.

I love this renovated theater that has an old time feel with its box office, concession stand and decorations. They do have a house cat. I love it.

The history of this theater is extensive. The crew working was well organized and great spirited. The chairs were comfy and accommodating to a larger hipped woman. Highly recommend seeing Rocky Horror with the shadow cast!

Cozy little vintage nook of a theater very warm and personal atmosphere. I saw Star Wars Rise of Skywalker here and we basically had the whole theater to ourselves, cant beat the prices either!

Great little theatre.well maintained and overall great time there..

Great local theater. Better than the AMC theaters by far!!

Theater was clean and comfy. Should have kept the door shut when folks werent allowed in to avoid confusion. Adequate video and sound system.Ive seen a lot of Rocky Horror Picture Show production and The Well Hung Speakers is by far the worst cast I have seen.

Best theater in the city! Love the neighborhood feel, classic vibe, and astounding history provided by this place. A must visit for any out-of-towner and a perfect place to make a regular visit to for a local.

Great atmosphere and staff. Only thing I would have changed was sitting on the balcony. The bottom floor was filled with kids from camps and we were stuck in the middle of it.

Going there always feels special. Its intimate without compromising the big screen experience.

Great Independently Owned Neighborhood Movie Theatre.Better then the Multiplex...

Always enjoy this quaint theatre. All the times I have gone, the theatre has been packed. It was great and very enjoyable. The theatre seats are all at the same level so if someone taller than you sits in front of you, you might have trouble seeing the movie.

I prefer this theatre to any other theatre not only because it shows a wide variety of movies that are not played at any other theatre, but also due to the mom and pop atmosphere. I love when they have Rocky horror picture show here w/shadow cast.

Enjoy going to a real old fashioned theatre. Sound system is awesome.

Super cool old-timey theater, great vibe to the place. Plus they have a house cat

Has the feel of a old time movie theater! My only complaint is the seat are small and pretty much all the same level but they offer $6 matinee and the Coke is only a few bucks with free refills. I paid 6 or 8 dollars for a Coke at AMC theater not to long ago.

The theater experience was great. Small intimate space.

This is not just a vintage cinema, its a historical landmark, true movie lovers would love this place, its like travelling back in time. Its located in a beautiful neighborhood so you can enjoy dinner after or before your movie. They sell popcorn, sweets, and nachos inside the cinema, not sure if they sell alcohol, I dont think so. The best movie theater in New Orleans.

Great old school theater showing independent films.

I would give it 5 stars, but an old school theater had old school seats. They become quite uncomfortable after awhile. Otherwise, the screen had a great picture and the sound is good quality.

This place is the only theatre where I truly feel comfortable watching stuff on the big screen. I hope it never goes away.

Always love going to this awesome neighborhood theater. Great ticket prices, and quaint old-time feel. They even play the Lets All Go to the Lobby song before the show. Its only one screen, so showtimes are limited, but they play classic movies there frequently. I suggest sitting on the balcony.

My favorite theater in New Orleans. I love the entire vibe. The staff is friendly and helpful and the programming is top notch.

It was cozy, small enough for families and yet big enough for a crowd. Tonight it was only a handful of people!!! I LOVED IT!!!

All I can say is I absolutely love this theater. Just a 10 minute walk from my apt and your there for the magic. Love the Horror film series especially. No new seats or flashy gimmicks just a old time nostalgia and reasonably priced concessions.

Classic movie place. Mid day matinees or midnight cult favorites, got it all

Love itA New Orleans must experience.

Quaint local theater that will remind you of a time before giant multiplexes

Fabulous original old Uptown theater. Great selection at the concession stand. Saw Mary Queen of Scots, another historical costume drama, my favorite movie genre. Walking distance to the St car & Mag bus line.

Great theater, just dont sit in the back if you are short, no slanted seating on the floor. Yummi popcorn..

GREATEST Theater in New Orleans. One of the greatest theaters on Earth!!!

Awesome place to see movies. Only one screen so check what their playing in advance, but very nice place with good prices.

One of my favorite small theatres to go to. Awesome to have a place that still shows midnight B Horror movies. Highly recommend this to any movie buff

Love the old theaters. This little cutie was right at home and was not bothered by constant patting while she slept.

Nice neighborhood theater. Last of its kind

Went to see a special screening of Second Act. This was my first time at this theater and I love the old school feel and authenticity it has. Oh and the movie was great! Great job JLo..

Fair pricing and good service in the last surviving neighborhood movie theater over 100 years old. Check out the midnight shows. My favorite place to watch a movie

My favorite theatre in New Orleans! Trust me Im a film student, Ive seen 1704 movies, and the average is 2400 in a lifetime - Ill be there at 24. This place is great, just wish they had more than one film a week, but thats apart of being classic

This is an old school, over 100 years old!, theater. There is no slanted floor so tall people, please stay to the back. There is a small balcony. There is only one screen, but in addition to the one feature playing each week, they also do nightly (Or nearly nightly) screenings of old Hollywood classics. Once a month there is a Rocky Horror picture screening with live cast.

Wonderful 100 year old single screen neighborhood theater with a balcony!!They show great classics as well as firsr run films.There is something for everyone.An excellent place for families or a romantic date.

Such a great time sweet people just nostalgic

Home town theater you will definitely enjoy

One of the few local, family owned movie houses in New Orleans. We would rather go there than anywhere else to see a movie. Matinees are a great value! You get to know the family, and they treat you like family!

Really awesome place! Will definitely choose to go here over any other major theater if they are showing a film Im interested in! The popcorn is dope :)

Had a real rough week and it was my birthday so I decided on a whim to go on my own to see Rocky Horror. I had heard a bit about the live action during the movie but wasnt real sure what to expect. The Well Hung Speakers were incredible and the lady that played Magenta was wonderful and really livened up the part. Went thru the ritual of being a virgin which I had never heard about and ended the evening almost stealing Jesuss rosary. Sorry Jesus, I was picking up everything as a souvenir and, being my first time, didnt realize the rosary wasnt part of the things getting thrown around. At least it gives a good story for my first show. I absolutely loved it. Now I look forward to going back and seeing them again and not being a virgin :)

Super cool little one screen theater that plays good things. Support your local business.

Had the extreme pleasure of seeing Isle of Dogs here last night. The lead in to previews was filled with classical music and a delight to sit and chat while we wait. The neighborhood is beautiful and the historic building is also a treat to enjoy. The grey cat I head everyone talking about was sleepy, but adorable and very friendly.

Old single screen movie theater that regularly shows classics. Friday and Saturday matinee showings for kids is only 6.50 for tickets, drinks and popcorn. Check their website regularly to see what they are currently playing.

Great neighborhood theater. Good sound. Seats could be better.

Absolutely AWESOMEI NEED MORE CLASSICS. AHA?

Great local movie theater in uptown.

Best place to see a movie

Wonderful local theater started by a man who just loved the movies! We love visiting Prytania Theatre because it has such a fun classic feel. They play movies you wont see at the big theaters as well as the classics. This is such a fun spot for date night. They have tasty concessions (including a really tasty iced coffee!) and really nice staff. If you want a really neat/fun/different moving going experience I highly recommend Prytania.

Great little neighborhood movie theater. The only single screen theater remaining in New Orleans. recently renovated the sound system and sounds great. Home of Rocky horror picture show.

Loved it. My go-to theater for my family and our visitors. Saw “Gi-GI” there. We saw Liz Taylor in “Cleopatra”, my college friends and I saw the local premiere of “Dr Strangelove” there. So many other films, too. We knew all the parking spots, where to park and not get towed. I’ve been gone from NOLA since 1976, but the Prytania remains in my heart.

The seats need to be upholstered. they have film festivals here and special events. it would be more enjoyable to watch movies here if the seats were better. my back always hurts after watching a movie here.

Seeing The Room was definitely an experience here! The theatre definitely has the classic charm that some chain theatres tend to exchange for a more modern feel. Would love to come see a new release here.

Love that old theatre and the Well Hung Speakers, the group that does the shadow performance of the Rocky Horror Picture Show; fun and highly entertaining group of individuals! Jolly good time!

Great date spot. In the summer they have a kids movie series on Saturday mornings for 6$ a ticket which includes pop corn and a drink. Pretty sweet deal!

Perfect place for a matinee. Definitely a hidden gem

First time wonderful family establishment

An excellent theatre and one of a dying breed of single-screen neighborhood theatres. Its decor is as charming and beautiful as its movie selection is varied and its staff friendly. One only hopes that it can last as long as this city.

Such a nostalgic way to go to the movies. The kids love sitting in the balcony. I love that it feels like going to my childhood movie theatre but with updated snacks and drinks. Where else can you get fresh brewed tea at your movie theatre?

Cute, local theatre and you can book for birthday parties.

Love small independent theaters!

Exquisitely nice, very clean, Nice staff,the sound was fabulous, good location, good parking, secure, Historical at its best, will visit again for sure.

Old school theater which shows classic movies. This theater also shows Indie Flicks. Good popcorn too! I love this place. Its worth the hour and a half drive. The only downfall is: recliner chairs.

A classic in NO. Thank goodness it has been kept the same!

Lovely experience! Reminds me of my childhood experiences with neighborhood theatres. Cant wait to go back.

Great place for date night just a couple blicks from st charles

Been coming here for years for many special movie viewings around the holidays. Christmas and Halloween movies, kid summer movies. Magical theatre with so much history.

Fantastic throwback to the Olde Tymes, but in the best way. A single screen, in-town theater thatll have you feeling like a kid again, right down to the lets all go to the lobby opening number.

Nice theater in what seemed like a quiet neighborhood. Came for an event, which I thoroughly enjoyed but felt like the theater was not quite fully on board with. No stadium seating so there may be a few heads in the way of your view. But its BYOB!

Great theater with a wonderful history and a vintage feel inside. We saw an Alfred Hitchcock classic and it was great! There is balcony seating which is unique and we had an announcer who gave film details before our film began. The tickets were reasonably priced at about $6 and there were coffee, soda, popcorn, and other concessions available.

The popcorn is great!

Noche single screen theater. Worth the experience!

The best.

Great show and cast!

Great ole neighborhood movie house. Very reasonable weekday prices and yummy concessions.

Great local theater that shows a combination of recently released features and old classics (cult classics included). Make sure to check the schedule before heading that way as it is a single screen theater so you wont have options for films or start times once you arrive. But its a beautiful space and a historic theater that I definitely recommend checking out.

This has always been a dream of mine. To have a local movie theater where you still feel like it has the magic you saw as a kid. Its nostalgia and unique events make this a place I will always remember. May it continue always.

Fantastic, small movie theater with top-notch programming. Great for midnight movies and special screenings. A cool balcony section that hardly anyone uses, as well! Highly recommended for NOLA cinephiles.

Great. Attended a special viewing sponsored by AARP. Friendly and efficient concession workers. Theater was clean and seats were comfortable. Acoustics were perfect. Street parking was only challenge.
