Yelp.com Review - by Christy L.

5.0 of 5 stars. I felt an urge to update my review based solely on the midnight movie offerings. It seems like someone is always complaining about a lack of booze free events in this city. The late time slot makes...

Yelp.com Review - by Carl S.

4.0 of 5 stars. Took the girlfriend here for a chick flick and found a gem. While without the stadium seating of the most modern theaters, this theater's charm and history are truly unique. The vibe was very laid...

Yelp.com Review - by Dorothy Y.

4.0 of 5 stars. I saw Rocky Horror here a few nights ago and I will definitely be heading back to watch a film soon (especially since they've got a Classic Movie Series going on for the rest of the summer!). $7...

Yelp.com Review - by Julian V.

5.0 of 5 stars. Okay, let's be honest. The Prytania was a neat concept, but about a year ago, I would have given it three or maybe four stars. It's great to support local business, but showing only one (maybe two)...

5.0 of 5 stars. Every movie experience seems better from the balcony of the Prytania Theatre. I brought my son for the first time recently and was thrilled to share the experience with him. The prices are great and...

Yelp.com Review - by Jen L.

5.0 of 5 stars. The Prytania gets 5 stars for 2 reasons:1. I can walk here from our new house & 2. It's a survivor.In the last 20 years it has closed 2 or 3 times and each time it was going to be torn down for...

Cool neighborhood treasure by R C. at InsiderPages

Built in 1911, this is the oldest surviving movie theater in New Orleans, and the only single screen theater left in Louisiana. The theater is featured in Walker Percy's novel The Movie Goer and also in...

Yelp.com Review - by Jean-Paul V.

5.0 of 5 stars. The only place in New Orleans to see first run features for so many reasons. Firstly, it's the last routinely operated, family owned, single screen theater in the region across many states....

Yelp.com Review - by John H.

4.0 of 5 stars. Cool neighborhood theater, one of the only single screen theater's left. Cheap prices and a great way to support local business instead of AMC. They only show one movie at a time, but if its a movie...

4.0 of 5 stars. Great non-corporate place to see a movie. Just bring a parka because they really crank the A/C.

Yelp.com Review - by rene d.

4.0 of 5 stars. This is a great way to spend an evening and keep your dollars in the city! It's a single screen theater, and you even sit in their intimate (read small and off-center) balcony. Seating is a little...

nice theater by Ian W. at InsiderPages

My wife and I enjoy going to the Prytania theater since it is very nice and cozy. It is not crowded and it is a break from all the fancy modern theaters that have so many movies playing at once. With huge...

a venerable uptown institution

This wonderfully old fashioned movie theater is one of the only non-megaplex movie theaters in New Orleans, and the only remaining theater uptown. It has a single screen and only a few employees at a...
