Cooper executives still are trying to combat
minor moving problems-like an end table
crushed by a falling desk. And the building
itself is still unfinished. The telephones aren't
hooked up and the fountains don't work.
But the sparkling theater part of the
building is completed. The four newtheaters,
on the the comer of 12th and P Streets, will
bring Lincoln's downtown movie screen
count to 13. The building also will house the
home offices of Cooper Theatres and the
Cooper Foundation.
The theaters' lobby is roped off to keep
audiences for theaters one and two in one
area, and audiences for theatei s three and four
in another area. Mike Gaughan, Nebraska
district manager for Cooper Theatres, said this
will help prevent overselling performances.
Each theater seats approximately 300
people and can show 16 mm, 35 mm and 70
mm films. Therearetwo fountains on the east
side of the plaza.
Gaughan said he hopes the plaza will
eventually show specialty films, such as
foreign and domestic films which may have
limited audience appeal.
Gaughan said he hopes the proliferation of
movie theaters in Lincoln will not cause
undue competition among the current
downtown movie theaters. "No one profits
then," he said.
