Upstate Films, the art house cinema in Rhinebeck, is reopening to the public on June 18 after being closed for 15 months due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
The theater, which will be celebrating its 50th anniversary next year, will initially be open from June 18-20 and June 25-27 with limited showtimes.
According to its website, the theater plans to “expand our hours as demand necessitates.” Ticketing and reserved seating will be available through a new touchless system.
Moviegoers will have a choice of five films for the opening weekend: the Academy Award winners “Nomadland” and “Minari,” the musical “In the Heights” and the documentaries “Street Gang” and “Summer of Soul.”
