Roadhouse Cinemas, Tucsonβs dine-in movie theater, is expanding.
The theater has leased an additional 10,000 square feet adjacent to its existing site on Grant and Swan roads to add three screens and 225 seats. A $1.5 million building permit was issued for the expansion.
During construction, customers will need to enter the theater from Grant Road, as the north side will be closed.
The company is looking for artistsβ ideas for a mural on the outside wall of the addition. Visit roadhousecinemas.com or call 209-2728 for more information.
Scott Cassell, director of operations, said Roadhouse is looking at other locations around Tucson and has been approached by interested investors in other states.
