Silver screen returns to Battlefords
After just over three months, Battlefords area residents are finally able hit the big screen locally once again.
The Capitol Theatre in North Battleford officially reopened to the public Friday night. It was closed in mid-February for renovations after it was purchased by Magic Lantern Theatres. The screening of Wonder Woman sold out and supervisor Katrina Chapman said it could not have gone better.
“Tonight was better than expected,” Chapman said. “We had a great crowd. We sold out every seat in the auditorium.”
She and her staff were forced to turn away multiple movie goers at the door, as tickets sold out 40 minutes before the show was set to play.
