pening new movie theaters is
old hat for Paul Glantz. The
58-year-old Lake Angelus
businessman and "honorary Jew" — a
title bestowed upon him by his business
partner and member of Temple Israel
Jon Goldstein — has been in the cinema
business since 1989
when he bought
the single-screen
Clarkston Cinema.
Despite having
opened numer-
ous theaters since,
the co-founder and
IL I&
CEO of Emagine
Paul Glantz
Entertainment is
particularly excited
about the newest addition to his family
of cinemas.
The Emagine Palladium movie theater
and Ironwood Grill will open to the pub-
lic Oct. 2 in downtown Birmingham and
promises to redefine the movie-going
experience with luxurious amenities,
gourmet dining and a new membership
concept that provides patrons with prior-
ity access to the latest films.
"From the moment you enter the
venue, you will see and feel the differ-
ence Glantz said. "We are confident
that we are building the movie theater of
the future, where guests can reconnect
with movies in an environment that is
as comfortable as their own living room,
but with one major improvement: We'll
clean up after them"
Located entirely on the third floor of
the old Palladium Theatre building at
250 N. Old Woodward, the new venue
trades seating capacity for a more inti-
mate entertainment experience. Whereas
the former theater packed 2,500 seats in
front of 12 screens, the redesign limits
seating to 540 seats and only five screens,
guaranteeing viewers the best seat in
the house from any of the plush power
recliners.
Patrons can also enjoy a full-service
cocktail bar with a large selection of
wines and craft beers. Executive Chef
Andy Begole, formerly of the Maple
Kitchen in Bloomfield Hills, will run the
Ironwood Grill, offering guests a selec-
tion of gourmet foods from appetizers to
entrees and craft-your-own-pizza.
General Manager Randy Froschheuser
will oversee the day-to-day operations
of the Emagine Palladium and the
Ironwood Grill, and theater managers
Erik Wessel, Rhoeben DelaCruz and
Emery Eriksen will operate the Emagine
Palladium.
In addition to top-of-the-line accom-
modations, the theater will sell a limited
number of "platinum memberships" that
give members priority access to tickets,
dining reservations and special events
as well as discounts on concessions and
other perks. The benefits of platinum
memberships extend to the primary
member's entire household and immedi-
ate family. For inaugural members, the
$350 annual fee is locked with subse-
quent renewals.
Non-members, too, can enjoy the
offerings of the facilities; but, in most
cases, may only purchase tickets four
hours in advance of show times.
The unique membership concept,
according to Goldstein, was part of
an effort to cater to the neighborhood
crowd. By selling memberships, movie
