    Very nice old-timey theater on the Main Street of Zelienople. I love the Neon Marquee, and the inside has been updated with modern seating and a wonderful sound system. Concessions are also "old-timey" in price, nearly everything is a dollar, including popcorn and soft-drinks. Beer and Wine ranged between $3-4. Admission was only $5. The only thing I do not care for in this theater, is that it has no center aisle-way, so getting in and out of the seats can be problematic when the theater is full of people, but overall, this is a shining example of a community initiative to save a part of history, and I am glad the Strand is now back in use again.

    Small stage, musicians were to the left and it felt pretty cramped

    The actors did a fantastic job, and I was thoroughly impressed with the quality of both the production and the venue.

    I have been at this Cinema a couple of years back and enjoyed the movie and theatre. Well this time…read morewas a little different it is an odd thing that happened and probably doesn't happen all the time if ever but there was only 4 employees which none looked more than 16 or 17 years old and I don't blame them it is the manager problem and should have a lead person that is more experienced working with them. So we were in the film about 15 minutes and there was a thunderstorm that knocked out the electricity and then it came right back on but the fire alarm came on thought out the whole place and first we all waited about 15 minutes before an employee came in he told us to stay seated and they would be starting the film again and get the alarm off, 2 minutes later he came back and said everyone had to go to the lobby and the firemen would be turning off the alarm. So the whole lobby was full and the firemen men came but they had to check each theater room and they worked on turning off alarm. We stayed for 35 minutes but they still could not get the alarm to stop, so we asked for a voucher for another time and received it. You could clearly see that the employees were not trained for this kind of situation.

    Chairs are so comfy. Staff very helpful I thought it was cinemark, it is Tuxedo. Not busy at all I…read moreguess due to streaming at home. So glad they bring sight and sound shows there

    The inside of the theaters were not up to standard, they were "cleaned" beforehand but there was…read morepopcorn and wrappers on the floor. My wife and I had a conversation about prices because they are extremely high 9 dollars for a small popcorn is crazy, and our theater was relatively empty only a few other people so we asked a worker if we would be able to move to better seats. If no we would've been okay but it never hurts to ask. However, this worker with bangs was really rude, "you paid for the seat you have, you have to stay there why else would you buy a ticket." So overall the theater isn't up to par, prices are outrageous and some workers are rude!

    First, the young man that sold us the tickets made no mention of having a Regal card. Even tho…read morethere was 1 person in line behind us, he seemed to be in a hurry. Second, the temperature in the auditorium was unbearable for the previews and the first 15 minutes of the movie. I went to the lobby to let the staff know about it before the movie started. Yes, I know it takes time to cool a room of that size during an 80+ degree, sunny summer day, but it shouldn't have been an issue that needed addressed. Third, and final issue was that the air conditioning stopped with approximately 15 minutes left in the movie. Once again, making the auditorium unbearably warm. We addressed this issue with a staff member on our way out and his reaction was a disappointing "ok" accompanied by a head-nod. Please address these issues with the staff and refresh them on professionalism and courtesy. With at least 4 other theaters in the area you'd think they'd strive to be the best, not disappoint their customers

    This is a fantastic place to see a movie or two. There is a big screen and a large parking…read morelot/viewing area. Take a radio, or you can rent one there. You can also use your vehicle's radio, but beware of draining your battery. You can watch the movie from inside your vehicle comma or bring a blanket to watch from outside. Some people get creative and watch from the beds of their trucks, a van seat on the grass, etc. Before the movies begin, kids usually play together in the big grassy area in front of the screen -- where it's too close to park and see the movies. The whole place is kept very clean, and the snack bar is filled with all the "tterrific but horrible" movie theater offerings you would expect, including nachos, burgers, ice cream, and (of course) candy, pop, and popcorn! But, these prices are much more realistic and reasonable than at the walk in theaters. The staff is wonderfully friendly, and there have always been two working pinball machines when we visit! The audio and visual quality of the movies is always terrific. You'll also get to see some nostalgic advertising - like the countdown in between the movies, which I'm guessing is actually from the era it depicts. (If not, it does a great job at making it seem that way to a modern audience.)

    Who doesn't love a drive in? Great selection of snacks and friendly folks that work there : )read more
