Lights, camera, action! The beloved Cove Theater in Copperas Cove is back in action after a recent remodel, and the people of Central Texas (myself included) are super excited!

If you’ve ever been to Copperas Cove, you can tell that this is a very quaint town where everybody pretty much knows everybody, and people are passionate about the history and heritage of their town. Plus it’s located right next to Fort Hood, so new people get to enjoy its charm as well.

There are lots of good movie theaters in Central Texas, but there's something special and exciting about seeing the classics in a theater with that special nostalgic look, atmosphere, and service.

That's why I'm so excited about the Cove Theater opening back up at 111 West Avenue D! It's all about the classic cinematic experience.

A THEATER FOR (AND BY) MOVIE LOVERS

We reached out to the team behind the restoration of this beautiful theater, Andy Remedies and Betina Cash, to ask what it means to them and for the families and cinephiles out there:

"More than anything we want Central Texans to know that there's an affordable movie-going experience out there for families and classic movie fans. We aim to offer movies meant for the big screen-classics, cult favorites and retro blockbusters in a small town atmosphere."

LIGHTS, CAMERA, ACTION!

Think of all of your favorites from when you grew up, then think about how great it'll be to not only see them again on the big screen at this absolutely amazing movie theater, but how fun it will be to share them with your kids and friends.

I love movie theaters that show classic films and musicals. When you go to a theater that specializes in screening these films, it really brings you back to your childhood and can even reignite memories that you had totally forgotten about. The classic, charming venue can also create wonderful memories for your kids.

IT'S SHOWTIME!

This weekend, the Cove Theater will be playing one of my all-time favorite musicals, Grease!

In case you're not familiar, Grease stars the always gorgeous Olivia Newtown John and Mr. Saturday Night Fever himself, John Travolta. It's set in the 1950's and is a love story with incredibly catchy songs and wonderful performances from the whole cast, plus awesome classic cars.

The wonderfully vintage Cove Theater most definitely understood the assignment when they chose to open with Grease, so grab some popcorn and your other favorite snacks, then settle in for a great time.

Here are all the details you will need to know about this weekend, and keep an eye out on their Facebook page for more great classic and family films coming up soon.
