The Screening Room
About
The Screening Room
120 Princess Street Kingston Ontario
Our atmosphere is more intimate, unique & down-to-earth than the multiplexes. We play movies you won’t see anywhere else in the region. Our popcorn is the best in town (cooked in coconut oil) and we serve tea in china mugs. Our membership cards make regular moviegoing affordable (only $8.85+hst per ticket).
Since 2011, the cinema has been owned & operated by Wendy Huot, taking over from Terry, who owned & ran the cinema for the 10 year prior. Dan Wannemacher founded and built the theatre in the mid-1990’s. Tribute to Dan Wannemacher, founder of The Screening Room.
We did a major renovation of our cinema in 2017/2018, which doubled our footprint and created two new auditoriums (the Cameo & the Roxy). Nearly everything was rebuilt (snack bar, washrooms, lobby, hvac, etc), except the old Metro theatre, which received a refresh.
2023 Projector Donation Drive: In Spring 2023, we raised over $70,000 in community donations (from over 620 people) to pay for a necessary new laser projector & sound system.
