Your days of driving all the way to Dallas to see good movies are numbered, friends. In a city known for its love of art and world class museums The Citizen will be Fort Worth's first twin screen art-house theater. In addition to showing amazing new and repertory films we will also serve fresh gourmet concessions from Spiral Diner’s treasure trove of dessert recipes along with a top notch beer and wine selection. At The Citizen we take the film going experience to heart and will show all films with state-of-the-art sound and projection. The theater itself will be designed in an art deco fashion just like the most beautiful classic movie palaces.
Owner, Amy McNutt, creator/owner of the Spiral Diner & Bakery chain of award-winning vegan restaurants, not only has considerable experience creating and running every aspect of a highly demanding business, she also has a degree from the top-rated film school in the country, The University of Southern California School of Cinema-Television. Opening a twin-screen theater is something she's been dreaming of and planning for the last 10 years and it's going to be awesome.
Currently The Citizen is looking at a few different locations in the Near Southside. Once we have a location locked down we will start accepting individual investors and apply for a bank loan. Investors will receive between 8-10% APR depending on the amount lent. If you are interested in investing or know of a great location in Southside Fort Worth please email Amy.
