Showing at the Dells Theatre

by

“SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY” – It’s a BRAND NEW DAY for Peter Parker. Fighting crime full-time as Spider-Man in a world that doesn’t remember him — and the pressure of seeing his old friends move on without him — sparks a change in Peter he may not have the power to control. But that transformation might also be the only thing that can stop a shocking new threat to the city and those he loves – a powerful villain no one can even see. The world may have forgotten Peter Parker, but he hasn’t forgotten them.

  • Fri, July 31st: 7:00 p.m.
  • Sat, Aug 1st: 4:00 p.m. & 7:00 p.m.

The new owner of the Dells Theatre, along with the Dell Rapids Chamber of Commerce held a ribbon cutting ceremony on Saturday, February 6th.  Brian Anderson, a former employee of Logan Luxary Theatres Corporation, celebrated his new ownership with the ribbon cutting prior to an afternoon of movies.

Anderson’s plans for the future include expanding the concession menu, and he also brought back the Bargain Tuesdays.  He will continue to offer first run movies at lower prices than the Sioux Falls theaters and will continue bargain matinees on weekends when all ages are only $5.00 for shows starting before 6:00. Anderson will continue the theatre’s Rewards program and honor the annual popcorn buckets. Other new promotions will be announced in the future.

Current hours of the theater are Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Tuesdays for evening showings.  Afternoon matinees will be held every Saturday and Sunday.  Showtimes will vary depending on the running time of the current movie.

Moves and times will be posted each week on their Facebook page as well as their website, www.dellstheatre.com (which is currently under construction).  The theater opens 30 minutes before the first show of the day.  The box office will close 15 minutes after the start of the last show of the day.

Prices are $7.00 for ages 13 and older and $5.00 for ages 12 and younger.  Bargain matinee price is just $5.00 for all ages and showings starting before 6:00 p.m.

Intermission Is Over, Curtains are Preparing to Reopen at Dells Theatre

by

The long intermission from movies at the indoor movie theater is finally coming to an end. The Dells Theatre is preparing to reopen on July 17.

Jeff Logan, President of Logan Luxury Theatres Corporation, and Nancy Jorgenson, Dells Theatre Manager, announced the re-opening date today. They said the company has taken extensive measures to ensure the health and safety of their guests and staff.

The staff will be spraying disinfectant rated for human coronavirus on all contact surfaces, seats, restrooms, etc. between every showing as well as scheduling more time between the shows to allow for a deeper, more thorough cleaning.

They have also installed an iWave filtering system in the air conditioning unit that uses a patented needlepoint bi-polar ionization to capture any pollutants, viruses or bacteria in the air in both the auditorium and the lobby. Additional UV filters are on order and will be installed as soon as they arrive. These provide an extra method of killing bacteria in the air.

The Dells Theatre has adjusted the selling stations to sell both tickets and concessions during the same transaction at the concessions stand to eliminate extra points of contact. Refill programs on the large popcorn and drinks have been discontinued to eliminate cross-contamination. The annual popcorn bucket program has been modified so bucket owners will receive a new bag of popcorn for each paid refill.

All employees will be wearing masks and any food handlers will also be wearing gloves. Logan said “We are excited to open our doors again and bring the magic of the movies back to our community.” The Dells Theatre will be showing all time favorite movies as noted in Facebook polls until the studios start releasing new movies again. The theatre is also offering opening weekend concession specials. They will be open Friday, Saturday and Sunday only for the first few weeks.  The first few weeks of community favorites will be only $5 for all ages.

The following is the current schedule of movies that will be playing, but the schedule is subject to change.

  • July 17th – 19th:  “I Still Believe”
  • July 24th – 26th:  “Footloose” (Original)
  • July 31st – Aug 2nd:  “Back to the Future”
  • Aug 7th – 9th:  “Trolls:  World Tour”
  • Aug 14th – 16th:  “Before the Fire”
  • Aug 21st:  “Mulan” (Live action)
