Construction has begun on a comprehensive remodel of the B&B Theatres location in Lee’s Summit, Missouri. The theater at 1451 NE Douglas St. will remain open throughout the remodeling process.
Multiple improvements are currently being implemented and installed, including full-scale seat replacements. Dated static seats are being removed to make way for luxury electric, leather reclining theater chairs. A new point-of-sale software was recently installed, the implementation of which has enabled reserved seating in all 16 auditoriums. Additionally, the software allows guests to participate in the B&B Theatres Backstage Pass Loyalty Program, a rewards system.
Other plans include an overhaul of the concession area, replacing outdated fixtures and realigning the lobby area with the B&B brand. New carpets and restroom improvements will be included in the remodeling effort.
In addition to this massive remodel at the Douglas Street location, B&B has also announced that construction on a seven-screen boutique theater is underway in the New Longview Development in Lee’s Summit. Dirtwork has been done, and construction is slated to begin in the Fall with an estimated completion date of April 2018.
