Sundance Cinemas LLC was a movie theatre chain founded by Robert Redford's Sundance Group that aimed to showcase independent, documentary and foreign-language films as well as some studio projects. Its headquarters was in Westlake Village, California.[1][2]
The first cinema, Sundance 608, opened May 11, 2007 at the Hilldale Shopping Center in Madison, Wisconsin, and contains six stadium-seated auditoriums, along with a cafe, bistro, bar, rooftop bar, and Gallery 608, which sells local and Sundance-related arts and merchandise. A second cinema, the Sundance Kabuki located in Japantown in San Francisco, California, re-opened on December 14, 2007 after being an AMC theater. Sundance Cinema's third theater, Sundance Cinemas Houston, is located within the Bayou Place development in downtown Houston, Texas. The new 8-screen theater opened in November 2011 after a $2.25 million renovation. Additional locations opened in West Hollywood in 2012 and Seattle in 2013.[1]
On October 6, 2015, it was announced that Carmike Cinemas had acquired Sundance Cinemas for $36 million.[3] In 2016, Carmike was purchased by AMC Theatres,[4] who proceeded to phase out the Sundance Cinemas name by converting all locations into the AMC Dine-In brand the following year.
