Guests filtered in the front doors Thursday evening, below the marquis sign that read, “WELCOME BACK TO THE MOVIES.” A trio of costumed characters stood at the top of the stairs inside the front door, ready to greet moviegoers.”Hello!” they sang out. Two characters stood on stilts, with a third offering up goodies like hand sanitizer and buttons.”Thank you!” each guest chirped, before venturing into the heart of the theater lobby.It’s been 586 days since bags of popcorn lined the concessions counter, and a movie named filled the marquis above the auditorium doors.
