I'm not trying to tear down a little theater. However, my experience was kind of a mess. I bought tickets on Fandango. When we arrived we decided to head straight to the theater for seats. Nobody was checking tickets at all. We walked right in. Because I'm an honest person I had already paid for tickets, but it would literally be the easiest thing to sneak into. (Not that I'm advocating that). We found seats, and the guy next to us said hey the waitresses said there's only 2 of them for all the theaters so if you want popcorn etc it's better to go out to the front and order. So that's what we did. There was a line 4 deep when we got to the ordering line. It was barely moving. The employee said anyone seeing a movie go back to the theater and order from a waitress. Most of the line left. Another person in front of us waited, got fed up, and left. Now we are at the front of the line. And nobody's there. No employees to be seen. I even call out and nobody answers. I finally see the employee and ask him if we can buy popcorn. He says in a minute, he's selling tickets. There's a whole line of people trying to buy tickets and he's the only employee for the snack line and ticket line. I pressed him because we were the only one in the snack line and only wanted popcorn, whereas the ticket line was at least 10+ people. We got the popcorn which somehow was room temperature despite being freshly popped. They also add the butter in with a squirt bottle over top, so there were cold pieces with butter on them and absolutely no butter in the second half of the bowl. While we were waiting, we noticed a gallon of milk out on the counter, a milkshake half prepared, a bunch of customer garbage on the counter next to a cutting board with a half cut lime sitting on it, presumably for someone's mixed drink. All are not recommended practices for safe food handling, if not health code violations. A waitress never came to us in the theater. I did see one, but she never came to anyone in my party - someone stayed behind while we were in line at the bar area and still no option to order in theater. At the end of the movie, no one turned on the lights. We stayed several minutes into the credits and the lights were still dimmed which is a safety hazard. There was a family sitting on the floor because they bought tickets but couldn't get seats. We didn't know what to do with our popcorn bowl at the end of the movie so we left it in the theater since we saw others do the same. It seemed to sum up the night, nothing was really clear, no employees were explaining things, there were not enough employees. We also saw customer trash in a pile on the parking validation desk when we left. Also, they showed several horror movie trailers when the audience was there to see a PG movie. There were several parents/families that were audibly upset that we heard. They were not expecting such graphic/horror trailers as IT 2 to be shown at a PG comedy. Now to end on a positive note: -new seats recline and were comfy -while waiting for snacks I saw a man making pizza, meaning their pizza is freshly made not frozen -the audio was loud but not too loud I wish there was more positives, but honestly I loved the movie and the crowd was great. So I had a good time, but very little of it had to do with the theater itself. But the crowd and movie saved this from being a 1 star review. Also I must note this was a Saturday night, so being this severely understaffed/undertrained is unforgivable. Friday and Saturday are a movies money making days. Someone should've been there to make sure it went well but I never saw any kind of management helping employees or customers.

This is just about the flea fair itself, not the drive-in movie theater. It's still a favorite spot…read morefor me to visit in the spring, summer, and fall. For $1 admission, you can discover a treasure trove of goodies, antiques, and even some junky finds (what one person considers junk, another might consider a treasure!). On a good day, the flea fair is full of vendors and people to sell their items. Last week, they had to turn away vendors because they ran out of spots. The drive-in concession stand is open, though they don't have breakfast food options I could see. Still, it's a good option if you're planning to spend the whole day there. The flea fair runs from 6 AM - 2 PM on Sundays, so it's best to get there early, as it tends to fill up quickly on nice days. Also, keep in mind that bad weather days might mean fewer vendors, so plan accordingly. There is also no indoor flea market option. I highly recommend this flea fair; I always leave with something whenever I go.

It was November so we had no problem getting a spot close to the front even though I'm sure it's a popular movie. Ticket price is around $9-$10 per adult so pretty reasonable (you pay by person, not by car.) They have two screens so can show up to two movies simultaneously. You tune into a radio station. The sound was pretty clear. Concession stand seems to have a good assortment based on what our friend brought back to us. A fun & different way to watch a movie. Support your local drive-ins!

The Scranton Cultural Center is quite beautiful and I've been in the audience for many of their…read morelive events and shows. I was once invited to a wedding at the Cultural Center and it was the nicest reception I've ever been to. However, I am sometimes disappointed with their schedule. The F.M. Kirby Center in Wilkes-Barre usually boasts a much better selection of musical acts and theater pieces. I'm quite surprised that such a beautiful venue can't attract performers of a higher-caliber. I most recently visited the Scranton Cultural Center on July 10th for their screening of "The Trouble With Cali." "The Trouble With Cali" was directed by Paul Sorvino and filmed in Scranton, Pennsylvania. The movie was partly funded with $500,000 of Lackawanna County's money. The county commissioners credited as executive producers of the film are now in prison on unrelated corruption charges. "The Trouble With Cali" was shot five years ago and never released. Sorvino claims he is unable to find distribution because of negative press the movie received in the Scranton news media. After five long years a free screening of "The Trouble with Cali" was finally arranged for Scranton taxpayers. I was a resident of Scranton for several years but moved away during the start of the city's budget problems. Driving through Scranton these days is like driving through a ghost town. The Steamtown shopping mall has gone bankrupt and many other storefronts and restaurants have gone out of business. Even the city's movie theater has closed and "The Trouble With Cali" screening was held at the nearby Scranton Cultural Center. Sometimes, things work out for the better and The Scranton Cultural Center is a much more suitable venue for a film premiere. I quite enjoyed watching a bad movie in such upscale surroundings. Sorvino stars as Ivan Bluejones, patriarch of the Bluejones family. He is a city policeman and closeted homosexual who eventually has an affair with a young man over forty years his junior. Because I was a resident of Scranton during the filming of "Cali" I hope my tax money paid for the eye shadow that Sorvino wears during a cross-dressing scene. Ivan Bluejones is also a former musical conductor. During a flashback scene, Sorvino breaks down into a blubbering mess after conducting an orchestra at the Scranton Cultural Center. "Now I can be anything I want to be!" the musical genius cries. Sorvino might have thought "The Trouble With Cali" would bring him similar fame and recognition as an esteemed director. While the film was intended as a dark family drama it is instead a treasure trove of unintentional laughter. I admit to being a lover of bad movies. I've bought tickets to numerous Rifftrax live events, attended a screening of "The Room" personally introduced by Tommy Wiseau, and worn out my DVD copy of Birdemic. "The Trouble With Cali" is the latest disasterpiece to claim a special place in my heart. While movies like "The Room" and "After Last Season" were written and directed by amateurs, "The Trouble With Cali" was made by an award-winning family with decades worth of experience in the film industry; Paul Sorvino stars and directs, Oscar-winner Mira Sorvino plays a supporting role, and Amanda Sorvino wrote the screenplay. How could a veteran actor like Sorvino make such a sausage? Though Scranton was made famous by the NBC sitcom "The Office" none of the show's 200 episodes were actually shot in Lackawanna County. A few independent movies have been shot in Scranton or surrounding areas, but brought little notice to the city's burgeoning art scene. "Forged" was shot a year after "The Trouble With Cali" and makes use of several Scranton landmarks, including the Lace Mill; the film was barely released and its distributor soon went bankrupt. Partly funded by the Scranton Cultural Center's former executive director and over three years since shooting in Scranton and Wilkes-Barre "The Paragon Cortex" about an agoraphobic superhero still hasn't hit theaters. The only profitable and award-winning recent film made in Scranton was "Blue Valentine" starring Ryan Gosling and Michelle Williams. Scranton is home to many talented artists and it's very sad to see such an artistic community underrepresented on the big and small screen. Kudos to The Scranton Cultural Center for hosting such an event. "The Trouble With Cali" is a terrible movie, but it is also very entertaining and worth seeking out.

Also merchandise. They had one person handling merchandise that was already bought on a sheet with names written in at the same time selling merchandise for people that didn't purchase. Still not bad. Line confusions and no air. Great seats second row. NO AIR. the place was a sweat box. Ran out of water. Had to go downstairs with cash. Now the nasty part. Bathrooms were not flushing and were overloaded with hundreds of little princesses. But no water so upside of no bathrooms working. Seats weee great locationally. Small. Like an airplane overweight person next to me that had most of my seat. Still ok. Did I mention hot. Her deodorant wasn't working as it was. It only got worse. Okay the show absolutely spectacular. If you can see it anywhere else. Do it. They smiled and performed their hearts out in spite of the heat and the lights and the heavy gowns they were amazing. Gave a two hour show. Nonstop singing and dancing. Five plus stars for the performance. ZERO STARS Scranton cultural center. Never again. Don't care if they bring Elvis back from the dead.

We actually visited Steamtown National Historic Site during a government shutdown. That's probably…read morepart of what ended up making the stop feel so memorable. Because it was officially closed, there were very few people visiting and there was plenty of parking, so that definitely added to my personal enjoyment of the experience. We were able to walk around and enjoy the incredible collection of locomotives and historic rail yard but the star of the collection is the "Big Boy" locomotive. It's one of the largest and most powerful steam engines ever built. It's huge. It was cool to see the massive wheels and be able to read and learn about this amazing machine. This is the second "Big Boy" I have seen and the first was surrounded by a fence, so being able to get up close and personal with this one was exciting. While checking out the trains, a local gentleman who was walking his dog struck up a conversation with us and was very chatty and friendly. He offered suggestions for other places to visit in the area and gave us some great info. Our dogs also enjoyed getting to know each other. It would have been nice if the building had been open and we could have gone inside and learned more, but I'm glad for the private time that I had to enjoy the site and reflect on the beauty of the machines. We probably spent almost an hour walking around the yard with our dog and soaking it all in. You could spend quite a while here even without tours or ticketed exhibits and if you do come, the trolley ride in the area is a must, but that is for a different review...
