Harry Potter at the Screenland Armour Theatre in North Kansas City

Harry Potter at the Screenland Armour Theatre in North Kansas City was brilliant! If you're a Harry Potter fan, you will enjoy the latest movie Harry Potter And The Deathly Hollows.

I was very impressed with the Screenland Theatre. The Art Deco design is fabulous! The atmosphere is very relaxed and welcoming. The service is prompt and friendly. What a great addition to the North Kansas City business strip!

The lobby consists of a full-service bar and six tables. It doesn't feel like a movie theatre lobbly at all. You can have dinner and a drink in a relaxed atmosphere while waiting for your movie to start.

Screenland Armour was built in 1928 and served as a movie venue until the 1980's when it became a country & western bar for about 15 years. The current owner spent around $1.5 million in renovations; he had the good taste to retain much of the original architectural details.

An artist from Hawaii was commissioned to do the frieze around the screen. The face at the top is modeled after her mother. The robot, to the side of the screen, was done by a local artist who operates by our downtown Grinders in the Crossroads Art District.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows was awesome! I don't remember Dumbledore having a brother in the books, but he fit into the plot quite well. Hagrid, Professor McGonagall and all the favorite characters were there. Snapes turns out to be a noble hero. Voldemort remains evil to the end. Harry, Ron, Hermione and Ginny live happily ever after.
