From: Center Theatre for the Performing ArtsHello fans and friends of the Center Theatre,
You probably heard that the projector in our main auditorium broke down. We’re planning to replace it next month and I think it heard us talking and just quit out of spite. Luckily, we could rush in some parts for the new projector:
What you’re looking at is an IMB (Integrated Media Block) circut board on the left, new cables in the middle, and a 3 terrabyte storage system on the right. We spent the better part of Friday getting it installed, tested, and configured and now we’re back up and running. We also have a BUNCH of movies confirmed. They’re not on the schedule yet, but they’re down below - so check ‘em out.
And don’t forget, next Saturday you can watch our friend and Board Member Dani Buschmann live streaming from the Center Theatre roofdeck. She can’t leave until folks donate at least a $1,000 to the Theatre. You can donate early and get her snacks, drinks, and more at: https://www.centertheatre.org/dani-on-deck
Hope to see you soon at the Center Theatre.
