Ipic Theater Analysis

I am a fairly frequent customer of the iPic Theater located in Bethesda Maryland, and to be honest I love it! I have been more times than I can count, during many different times of the day. Each time I go my experience is always consistent and pleasant. Their employees are kind and very helpful from the time you arrive, to the moment you leave. What makes this theater different is that they have not only basic movie theater seating (“Premium Seating”), but recliner chairs as well, that comes with a server, free unlimited popcorn (which is delicious), and a complementary blanket and pillow to use while watching your movie (“Premium Plus Seating”). Also, while watching a movie you may order food, non-alcoholic and/or alcoholic beverages from …show more content…

The setting and atmosphere of the theater is very clean, comfortable, and relaxing. The seating arrangements provide privacy and intimacy, while each person always have a clear view of the screen. Inside the theater the food selection is more so finger foods and snack like options, but if you are interested in a full course meal they have a dine-in restaurant in their lobby. Their alcoholic beverages are wonderfully made. I also enjoy being able to pick my seat when buying tickets. Lastly, their is very user friendly and easily navigated.

As for the cons with iPic; the food choices within the theater rooms are pretty slim and bland. I have tried a few things on their menu and I still have yet to find anything that I would be willing to order again. Also, iPic seats sell out extremely fast when new movies come out, so I don’t recommend for a movie night not previously planned. For a fairly new movie, I reserved seats at 9am for a 10pm show, and there were two seats left before being sold out. (With movies that are no longer new, walk-ins are okay.) Lastly, your bill can get expensive quick based on what you

During the Great Depression, many theaters started falling apart due to financial issues. Right then the federal theater project was created to help small theaters that were suffering from these financial issues. It was also created to bring back life to large theaters who couldn 't afford the needs to maintain a theater. The way that the this federal theater project helped was the government takes over your theater and maintains it but the catch is that you don 't have any control over it. For example “as the depression worsened, theatrical unions became unable to care for their own members” ( text 1, lines 15-17).

Four months into the school year and this portfolio project has brought me to a number of realizations. The choices I made in my Technical Theatre I classes worked well, I feel they lead to a deeper understanding of the elements of design and they made points I had a hard time making in the past. While in my advanced class, I struggled to get a majority of students engaged in the large “Macbeth” project. During this semester, I came to the conclusion I need to fight more for the right to “approve” students for my advanced class. I don’t want my classes to become a dumping ground for students not willing to work.

With being one of the only theatres in Canada, people are accustomed to saying that they will be watching a movie at one of the many locations that Cineplex owns. Most of the population of Canada only attends the theatre as the market form is currently an oligopoly with there being limited competition and the market being shared only by a small number of produces and sellers. Cineplex has established brand loyalty as it is one of the only businesses providing this service and people are prone to visiting the business for its provided service. The company ensures this as they provide a SCENE card to everyone who lives in Canada and is above 14 years of age: with the card presenting points towards a free movie, 10% off already discounted tickets on Tuesdays, availability to special offers, discounts, contests, earning 1 SCENE point for every $3 spent at any of the 8 restaurants, and even earning 250 BONUS points for the first time a person enrolls or uses their SCENE points.

Once again, I was pleasantly surprised by how the University Theatre Department disproved my expectations for one of its productions. Mrs. Packard wasn’t nearly as hyped up as A Behanding in Spokane was and, aside from knowing that the show was unproduced, I had no idea what I was walking into when I entered the Cellar Theatre opening night. In my preview, I talked about how I was worried that the playwright, Emily Mann, would use Mrs. Packard as an outlet to bash Christianity as an oppressive and outdated religion. Anything that has a Christian undertone always poses this type of threat for me; fortunately, Mrs. Packard did not prove my fears right. Instead, the sensitive subject of differing religious viewpoints was handled with grace.

Theater. To the average person, it is just acting, singing and dancing; however, this could not be further from the truth. There are other groups who are as crucial to the show as the actors, if not more. As someone who entered the world of theater much later than the rest of the cast, my eyes have been opened tremendously to the reality of drama.         When I first joined stage crew for my school’s spring musical as a sophomore, I was convinced that I knew exactly what went into a production: the cast would do read-throughs of their lines, the stage crew would paint sets and occasionally move a prop or two, the pit band would sit around and look at music, and magically everything would come together.
