TERRACE PLAZA — Local services in Charleston

Went for a drive in movie. Summer means it takes quite awhile for it to get dark, so expect to not be able to see the screen at all for the first 20-30 minutes of the movie. Also have a plan for listening to the audio which is broadcast on FM. Will you be turning your car off? Will you leave it running the whole time? The makeshift setup puts a few trees, the projection trailer in prime spots. So the screen is oddly at an angle for most of the cars. Expect to lean to the right for a few hours.

I'm a big fan of the Terrace Theater. What an interesting concept for a retro experience. I have only seen a few movies here so it still retains its novelty. The theaters within are nice and cozy.
