We're open to tailoring rewards to donors at all levels.

Contact us to talk turkey.
Also if you're considering throwing down for, say, a lifetime of movie tickets but want to see the fine details in the business plan just drop a line and we'll send it your way.
Hi Kutscher,

The 5 Points Theatre will always be the 5 Points Theatre. Sun-Ray Cinema is a new company -- on a bigger scale think of AMC with their theatres at Orange Park and Regency (and a gazillion other places). We are a new business making the necessary investments to keep the 5 Points Theatre from becoming the new 5 Points Walgreens.

how am I supposed to receive my certificate or coupons for my pledge?
Congrats again! Wish you weren't changing the name - is it a sponsorship thing?
Congratulations on reaching the goal - I will look forward to the email confirming you have my small contribution to this (and 100% more comfortable seats!)
Good luck and I hope you get fully funded!

This is Josh of Nerd Nation. Instead of my name, is there any way it can say "Nerd Nation" in the pre-show support list? Thank you so much for coming on the show! All the best.
Good luck with your project!

Shirrel, we've heard a lot of old stories about the 5 Points but yours might be one of my favorites!
Ah, I remember the 5 Points well. Back in the mid-'60s I was the film critic for the Florida Times Union and Sheldon Mandell was the theater's manager. Being a youthful 25-years-old guy at the time, the elderly ticket booth lady once challenged my movie reviewer's credentials, saying I wasn't allowed to use my father's pass. I had to call Sheldon. I screened 2001 Space Odyssey there, me the only person in the auditorium watching the movie. Saviung it is a worthy project.
I am very excited and believe this project could be transformative for 5 Points
I doubt I'd be getting up to Jacksonville for a free night at the movies, but I'm happy to chip in. I love the classics.
Best of luck to you.
