Majestic Plaza Movie Theater & Redevelopment Opportunity

Majestic Plaza Movie Theater Redevelopment Opportunity

History of the Majestic

The Majestic was built in 1994 as a movie theater. Showing new Hollywood releases on 2 different screens and renting out the third as a community event space, the cinema serves as a cultural institution for locals, second homeowners, and tourists alike. The Majestic Theater is the only cinema in an 81-mile radius.

When COVID hit, it was forced to close with no plan to reopen…

Current Operations

Friends of the Majestic, a 501(c)(3), was formed in 2020 by two former theater employees, Carrie Wallace and Conrad Kaul, who were determined to bring back the theater as a symbol of community connection.


Since September 2022, Friends of the Majestic has successfully operated the theater as a nonprofit organization, turning a profit in the first year.

  • Over 26,000 movie tickets sold
  • 190 memberships sold
