How it started
History
The IMAX theater in Natick, Massachusetts, opened in August 2002. It features a screen that measures 76 by 55 feet (23 by 17 m), 12,000 watt sound, 279 Tempur-Pedic seats, and digitally remastered Hollywood films.
After the success of the theater in Natick, the company opened their second theater in October 2004 in Reading, Massachusetts, with a seating capacity of 500. The Reading screen measures 80 by 60 feet (24 by 18 m).
In September 2012, both theaters removed their 15/70 Film projectors and replaced them with digital projectors. In September 2015, Reading theater was upgraded to an IMAX with Laser, which uses a "dual 4K laser projection system".
After closing in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the theaters reopened two years later on May 27, 2022, for the release of Top Gun: Maverick.
