Picture Show at Bloomingdale Court re-opens Friday, Aug. 21
Picture Show Entertainment today announces the official reopening of its Bloomingdale, IL theater on Friday, Aug. 21.
Operating under state and local reopening guidance, Picture Show will open its doors to the public at 50% capacity. This decision comes after months of training and implementing new procedures to keep both Picture Show employees and guests safe and healthy.
Picture Show is excited to provide the affordably priced, luxury moviegoing experience enjoyed by the residents of Bloomingdale and the surrounding area once more. During a time when the community is eager to reconnect and enjoy a night of family fun, audiences can finally come together to enjoy the sense of connection found by going to the movies.
In conjunction with new major Hollywood movie releases like "Tenet," "New Mutants" and "Wonder Woman 1984" that will begin rolling out this month, guests can expect to see past award-winning movies on the first weekend like "Jurassic Park," "Trolls World Tour" and "Inception" at discounted prices.
Guests will also have the chance to see the national premiere of "Unhinged," a new critically acclaimed Russel Crowe thriller debuting on Friday, Aug. 21.
Updated business hours and adjusted ticket prices have been implemented for the first phase of reopening. For new major Hollywood movie releases, Picture Show will continue to offer the lowest admission prices in the region at $4.50 for adults before 6 p.m., as well as tickets for seniors and children all day. Tickets for adults after 6 p.m. are $7.
Movie tickets for previously released blockbusters will be $2 for general admission and $1 on Discount Tuesdays.
Group rentals are being offered as an exciting VIP Experience with a maximum of 20 friends and family, for a value rate of $75 per Classic movie screening and $100 per new release movie screening, plus the ticket price for each guest. The theater will be open daily at 11:15 a.m.

To ensure every precaution is met, Picture Show, in concert with the National Association of Theatre Owners and state and local health officials, has planned and executed an abundance of operational adjustments and safety measures including but not limited to; plexiglass barriers to reduce contact between team members and guests, enforcing and maintaining a six foot physical distance in all areas of the theater including lobby and auditoriums marked with floor signage and safely spaced luxury recliner seating.
