Tropicana Theatres, independent movie house closes
Art, the Arts | Sandra | March 16, 2007 at 11:13When I started doing this blog about events in Las Vegas, I had NO idea how quickly things change in this town. I should have guessed that if buildings can go up and down in a matter of months, that events on the human scale would be measured in hours.
I am sorry to report that the Tropicana Theatres closed, and closed so suddenly that the CineVegas Film Festival is now scrambling to find a venue for their Art House Screening Series. My article on the need for an Art House movie theatre (foreign and independent films) seems ever more relevant.
NOTE: Tropicana has reopened as Tropicana Cinemas. See “Tropicana Cinemas is re-opened.”

The CineVegas Film Festival screening series will now be held at the Neonopolis Theatres on Fremont Street, located at 450 E. Fremont Street, Suite 350 at the corner of Fremont and 4th Streets. Although the location has changed, the lineup for the series in March and April will remain the same, with the exception of “The Situation” and “Sweet Land,” which will not be shown March 16 – 22 as previously indicated. These two films will be rescheduled to screen at a late date.
