Center Theatre — Attraction in Dover-Foxcroft

What an awesome little theater! I love that this place is community-supported and oriented. The person manning the ticket sales and concessions was kind enough to explain to us that they have local sponsors and volunteers take care of tickets, etc. They also serve as a platform for a local theater group and short films by Maine directors, etc.

There are two rooms showing films; we were in the smaller one. There was only one other couple at 6:30 on a Monday evening so it felt like a private showing. Price could not be beat...$7 per ticket for the movie. Popcorn was also cheap. It's definitely a low-risk way to see a movie you're not too sure is worth it, like the latest Exorcist movie (not very good at all).

I would say this is your average small town movie theater and they do a pretty good job of delivering service based on what they have to work with here.

Elora began her journey with this Theatre when she was just 7 yrs old. During her 8 year journey, she was blessed with forever friends and some of her fondest memories. During those years, she learned important life lessons about commitment, community service, and the joy of participating in a family-like environment. She learned the taste (and smell) of THE BEST popcorn, and how to perform on a live stage. Though the stages and audiences Elora now performs for are much larger - they will never be better than this theatre’s - because the magic and closeness such a local jewel 🎭 fosters simply can’t be beat. The area is blessed to have such a gift: the great selection of affordable movies, the variety of fantastic local family-friendly shows, and the best fresh popped popcorn and refreshments - all housed in a beautiful space. We miss you,...
