Overview
Marquee Cinemas-Highland Cinema 8 is a movie theater in Glasgow, Kentucky, United States, operating as a location of the regional exhibition chain Marquee Cinemas. The Highland Cinema 8 site is one of the chain's multiplex venues, offering first-run film programming, advance ticketing, promotions, and concession service in the Marquee Cinemas style. Marquee Cinemas itself began in 1979 when Curtis McCall, the company's president, opened his first theater in his hometown. That original twin cinema in Rainelle, West Virginia, became known for sold-out shows, concession offerings, and customer service, which helped the single-location business attract the attention of moviegoers and developers. McCall soon took on the challenge of running multiple locations and expanded to five theaters in West Virginia. Today Marquee Cinemas operates in nine states and employs more than 550 team members. The company emphasizes hometown-friendly customer service, up-to-date projection and presentation technology, and freshly prepared concession items. Its stated goal is to provide quality family entertainment in state-of-the-art facilities that exceed guest expectations. Highland Cinema 8 in Glasgow, Kentucky, represents that model at the local level: a community-oriented multiplex carrying the Marquee Cinemas name and operating standards.
History
Marquee Cinemas began in 1979 when Curtis McCall, President, opened his first theater in his hometown. The original venue was a twin cinema in the small town of Rainelle, West Virginia. According to the company's own history, consistent sold-out shows, delicious concessions, and extraordinary customer service made the single-location company stand out to moviegoers and developers alike. Curtis McCall accepted the challenge of running multiple locations and quickly had five theaters in West Virginia. That early expansion established Marquee Cinemas as a regional exhibitor rather than a single-site operation. Over time the company grew beyond its home state; as of its published company history, Marquee Cinemas operates in nine states and has more than 550 team members dedicated to delivering the same exceptional, hometown-friendly customer service. At the corporate level, Marquee Cinemas pledges to maintain the industry's newest technology in all locations as quickly as possible. Each building is constructed with the customer in mind. Second only to customer service, concession snacks and refreshments are constantly scrutinized by the operations team to ensure each location provides the best-tasting, freshest concession items. The company states that its goal of offering quality family entertainment in state-of-the-art facilities that exceed the expectation of each guest on every visit is met in part by featuring industry-leading amenities. For over 35 years, Marquee Cinemas has brought the best in film entertainment to the communities it serves. Marquee Cinemas-Highland Cinema 8 is the chain's location in Glasgow, Kentucky, United States. It carries the Marquee Cinemas brand and operates as a multiplex movie theater serving the Glasgow area with first-run films, advance ticketing, promotions, and concessions.
