Art house theater coming to Fort Worth

The reason for the visit to Moxie was research. If you don’t know Amy and I personally then you probably haven’t heard that Amy is in the beginning stages of her next business venture. That venture being a real Art House Cinema in Fort Worth (of course I’ll be helping her out but just like Spiral it will be her baby). We’ve already been perusing suitable buildings and are very dedicated to keeping the theater in the Near Southside (where Spiral FW is.) Our hopes are to have the theater up and running by 2009. As I mentioned, we’re still in the very beginning stages but here are the plans thus far: It will be called “The Citizen Theater”, it will be a modest sized theater in art deco style. There will be two screens with a heavy emphasis on exceptional picture and sound quality playing both first run art house films and repertory films as well as undistributed indie films (but only the best of the best.) We’ll have a mini-cafe in the lobby serving organic popcorn, wine and beer, coffee and espresso, sodas, juices and smoothies as well as some of the other Spiral goodies you know and love (no full meals here, just snacks and desserts, maybe a veggie wrap or two.)
