They're looking at the space on Market Street, right next to Night Magic
Fashions. It's a ground level warehouse space that can easily be converted
into a theatre space with the installation of a projection booth, sloping
floor, and concession area. From the looks of their plans, it'll roughly
be the size of the old Wormwoods in the Carpenter's Hall, before they
moved into the Vogue/Cove theatre.

They need founding members to raise enough cash to secure the space, and
back up their business plan for getting a loan and continuing fundraising.
They'd like to be open in the fall. Hopefully there's enough
equipment/fixtures that can be salvaged from Wormwood's (their old
projectionist has a lot of the equipment in storage) that they can get at
a good rate.

There are quite a few people interested in getting this project off the
ground (including yours truly), and by keeping it small and realistic (and
with a good downtown location), it seems like a good bet.
