    Awesome place! Back to the 70's and love it!!! My great niece gets to experience an amazing drive…read morein!!

    One of the few remaining drive in theaters around the country. This one is located between Paola…read moreand Osawatomie and is a great drive in to visit. The owners are exceptionally friendly. An older couple that just ooze that small town/country hospitality that makes you want to come out every weekend for the featured movies. They always have current movies and the biggest summer hits. One of the most notable things about this drive in is how clean and well kept it is. It would be a real shame to see this one go the way that so many others across the country have. The speakers are loud and clear. The restrooms are exceptionally clean and well maintained with what appears to be newer fixtures. The lot is pothole free. You can just tell the owners take pride in the business. The concession area has a small, but typical movie theater menu and the prices are right in line with other theaters if not actually less expensive. (A large bucket of popcorn and large drink will cost you less than $10.) The cost of the movie is the best in the area at only $7 for adults, $1 for children 3-11, and children under 3 are free. You really can't beat the cost for a family night of entertainment. This drive in is at risk of closing due to the requirement and cost to upgrade equipment to digital and this may be their last season open. Make sure you visit and support what is a dying business across the nation. Stop by their FB group to see the various fundraising events that the fans of the theater have started in an effort to help save the drive in. https://www.facebook.com/groups/123342647687916/members/

    "So let's all goto the movies" immediately popped into my head when I arrived. Nowadays seeing a…read moremovie is so much more than buying a ticket and grabbing a seat in a theater. So if you loved drive ins, you'll like this. There's giant sized games and table games, along with a full service bar on deck! It's right in Crossroads off Broadway so parking is a hassle. Now cinema magic. No matter the seat you purchase, you've got a nice view. Ours were the Adirondack Chairs but I think the Adirondack Love Seat option might be cool too. It's first come, first-served seating. Your chair has a seat cushion with a headrest pillow. You receive your own headset for movie sounds upon Checkin. You can order from the menu right from your seat, at the bar or box office. Prior to your movie there's pre show content and trivia and even karaoke. Music is playing over the rooftop sound system. Single chairs were on right side of the aisles and love seats on the left facing the movie wall. The menu includes snacks, movie candy, mocktails or cocktails, choose your mood.. mine was "Am I the Drama?" AND it was drama compliant! The popcorn was really good, no messy butter, it's already pooped in. Pricing for things matches what you see at Dine n Movies elsewhere. I loved the whole experience. All movie staffers were friendly & helpful. We came early , like around the time of movie before ours - SINNERS, but staff were pretty cool about it! One of bartenders Rolando checked on us and was even kind enough to be our photographer. Enjoy the rooftop vibes, be careful stepping around as well. Movie time. At some points during our movie you could hear city sounds that were really loud like sirens or loud cars but overall the movie sound headphones were good. We had our own blankets so we were comfy and they have some for purchase. We did have a wait on our snack order so I went to get it at Box Office before the movie started. I received my drink promptly which again was da bomblicious with: white blended rum, elderflower, passionfruit, splash press, jalapeño, mint! YUP! I'd definitely enjoy rooftop cinema again!

    The Rooftop staff is always a pleasure! Vibes are on point. Atmosphere is amazing. Just good times…read moreall around!

    I have spinal stenosis so it's not uncommon for me to be uncomfortable in theater seats but the…read moreseats in this auditorium may be the worse seats in all of Kansas City! They are surprisingly shallow, so guests can't lean back without feeling perched on the very edge of the seat and about to pop out of the chair. I noticed several plain wooden chairs at the back of the auditorium which would likely be more comfortable. I should also mention that the amplification device that we checked out at the info desk didn't work at all. Not surprising since the ones at the Kauffman Center seldom perform properly . I look forward to the day when folks who really need those devices can receive tech that actually works.

    I saw my first Tivoli screening at the Nelson today and I was happy to see such a big crowd on a…read moreSunday afternoon. I'm so glad that the Tivoli will still be with us, though in a slightly different capacity. I love the theater. The ambiance is classy. The view to the screen is great (i.e. the heads of the people in the rows in front of you won't block your view). But this is not your typical theater experience. There are no refreshments allowed in the theater. The rows are very narrow and the seats have a low back so there is no stretching your legs out or reclining to relax and enjoy the show. I was very interested in the movie I was seeing but after two hours was very uncomfortable in the seat. If you are looking for a film to teach you something or give you a cultural experience, this is your place. If you want to kick back, much on some popcorn and a drink while you enjoy a show, you'll need to head to a different theater.
