 One of Brookline’s treasured landmarks, the fully restored art deco movie palace has three distinctive theatres: the main 600-seat theatre for presenting independent films, classic revivals (including 70mm), and a selection of world cinema; and a 250-seat stadium for 16 and 35mm films as well as live musical performances and other special events; and a 45-seat video screening room.
The Coolidge's theatre owners pride themselves on offering the best film presentation around, so when they embarked on a major upgrade of their cinema sound and projection automation systems, they chose BL&S for the job. Installing equipment to support such diverse product can be challenging; each theatre had two projectors, so the automation systems and sound systems required customization.
The BL&S team installed and tuned state-of-the-art Dolby cinema sound systems in both theatres, enabling the Coolidge to present a wide variety of product and support live performances. Finally, they installed custom automation systems, enabling a projectionist to automatically run both theatres.
BL&S also assists the Coolidge with its special presentation needs. In June 2005, BL&S sponsored its first ever 3D film festival. "We consider this an opportunity to give something back to our client and our community," said Chapin Cutler, principal of BL&S. "Besides, this is the fun part of what we do."
"BL&S has brought our historic 1933 theatre up to the standards that our film audience wants and expects in today's tough competition to survive in the movie industry," said Joe Zina, Executive Director of the Coolidge Corner Theatre Foundation. "...we now offer a superior theatrical experience in picture and sound, thanks to the upgrades that BL&S designed specifically for our theater."
