Landmark Theaters to Take Over Pasadena’s Laemmle Playhouse 7
After announcing that its flagship West Los Angeles location is closing at the end of May, Landmark Theaters announced Thursday that it has negotiated a long-term lease agreement for the Playhouse 7 cinema in Pasadena and will take over the venue from its original operators, Laemmle Theaters.
“The Playhouse acquisition is important for Landmark, as we’re able to continue the tradition of showcasing quality film to Pasadena’s moviegoing community,” Landmark president Kevin Holloway said in a statement. “This theater has a deep history, which we look forward to honoring and building upon in the years ahead.”
Opened by Laemmle Theaters in 1999, the Playhouse 7 was sold by the family-owned specialty chain in 2020 during the Covid-19 pandemic. When theaters reopened, Laemmle continued to operate the location over the past year through a leaseback agreement.
