Ohmann Theatre Has Competitive Edge
STORY BY: Stephanie Knarr
Now open seven days a week, the Ohmann Theatre, owned by community member, Bob Ohmann, is progressively marking modern trends that offers more than the average experience to movie patrons of all ages.
Upon entering the restored 1914 structure, the late movie greats, like Audrey Hepburn, invite you down the red carpet corridor to the ticket box where you eagerly purchase your movie ticket. All awhile, the fresh popcorn that is tickling your nose stands only a few short feet past and it’s no surprise when you ask for “extra butter, please”.
While reveling in the concessions, the opened glass doors welcome you into a floor plan that seemed to magically quadruple in size. From the outside, this quaint little theater looks to only hold 50-60 people, but this venue surprisingly holds 400 seats, which largely supersede the average modern day cineplexes.
And just when you think that there could be no more surprises, you settle in your chair and you inhale the ambience. Everything from the wood stage, the large screen framed by red velvet curtains, and elegantly painted ceiling has all been restored and renovated to push a movie patron’s delight over the edge. The Ohmann’s combination of historically past and ever present are symbiotically designed to create a mood that “just feels good”. And you haven’t even seen the movie yet…
