Our very
popular series of celebrity events often includes a table in our lobby where
you can briefly meet the stars of some of your favorite films and get their
autograph or a posed photograph with them.
These events are very expensive to stage and most celebrities are paid for
their personal appearances including all expenses.
These events are often heavily attended and we always suggest that you arrive
early. Celebrities are generally scheduled to arrive one hour prior to
the first scheduled showing of their film. They may or may not be
available to the public after a screening so we always suggest that you
purchase a souvenir and meet them prior to entering the auditorium. Your
early arrival also helps ensure that you can enjoy the widest selection of
seats when you watch the film. You must have purchased an admission ticket to
get in the line to meet our guests.
Depending on the length of the line and scheduling, our guest may entertain
questions from the audience and introduce the film from the stage but this is
entirely discretionary and varies from event to event. Some of our guests
make an extraordinary effort to ensure a great experience, and this may back up
the seating for later show times.
In most instances, there is a charge (most often $20) per autograph, whether it
is a photograph or item from here at the table or something that you bring with
you. You must have purchased a movie ticket in order to get an autograph
or posed photograph with our guest. In some cases, we do have a professional
photographer set up to take a picture with our guest, also at a nominal charge,
and in those instances you may only get a posed photograph through this
system. We do take credit cards and there is also an ATM on premise.
You may always take a candid unposed photograph of our guest from elsewhere in
the lobby at no additional charge.
