Priscilla

When teenage Priscilla Beaulieu meets Elvis Presley at a party, the man who is already a meteoric rock-and-roll superstar becomes someone entirely unexpected in private moments: a thrilling crush, an ally in loneliness, a gentle best friend. Through Priscilla’s eyes, Sofia Coppola tells the unseen side of a great American myth in Elvis and Priscilla’s long courtship and turbulent marriage, from a German army base to his dream-world estate at Graceland, in this deeply felt and ravishingly detailed portrait of love, fantasy, and fame.

About Us:

NOTICE: Change of Ownership

Hello Morro Bay! Your beloved Bay Theatre is undergoing a change in ownership, as many of you may have heard. The new owners, The Wilsons, are a family of film lovers and California natives with forty-year ties to the central coast. Morro Bay has always been a beautiful destination for visiting and vacationing, and we are so happy to call it home now!

Mary Lou and the Jannopoulos family have dedicated nearly fifty years of service and hard work to keep this place functioning and beautiful for its loyal patrons, and we are incredibly grateful to be taking over such a well-loved and cared-for local institution.

We will continue to work with the Jannopoulos’ in our best effort to maintain the quality and value of the theater experience exactly as you have enjoyed it here for decades. Hopefully any changes made will only be noticed for the better of your enjoyment and not felt in your wallets!

Thank you for your support and come in and say Hi!

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

 

The Bay Theatre has been family owned and operated since 1975. The building was constructed in the early 1940’s as a single screen motion picture theatre. The Jannopoulos family has maintained the historical integrity and charm of the building while pursuing their efforts to maintain and improve the physical and technical aspects of this landmark.

The most recent improvement has been the installation of a state of the art digital projection and sound system. We are proud to be the beneficiaries of Ultra Stereo of San Luis Obispo’s generosity, who donated to us, a digital sound processor and an assisted listening system, which includes not only sound amplification but also, closed captioning and visual narration capabilities.

Our family invites you and your family to enjoy your next night out at the movies, with us, at the Bay Theatre in beautiful downtown Morro Bay, California

 

We are proud members of Theatre Historical Society of America www. historictheatres.org

Assisted Listening

For the Hearing Impaired

Headsets are available at the front desk, to enhance and amplify the sounds during a movie. The device connects after the previews, before the film, in your auditorium and gives you the ability to control the volume. This is especially helpful for those who are hard of hearing but don’t currently use a hearing aid.

Audio Description

For Visually Impaired People

Audio described screenings of films enable those with sight impairments to enjoy the experience of Cinema through a unique narrated soundtrack which not only gives the narrative, but a visual description of the film as well. Audio Described films will be annotated on our website Under Our Current Movie Page. Please ask our Box Office for a headset upon arrival.

Closed Captioning

For Hearing Impaired People

Closed captioning refers to the text version of the spoken words that accompany videos or movies so that us deaf and hard of hearing people can also enjoy watching movies. We provide boxes which sit in your cup holder and are able to be positioned at your view of the bottom of the movie screen. Closed Captioned films will be annotated on our website Under Our Current Movie Page. Please ask our Box Office for a closed caption box upon arrival.

  • Our box office opens 30 minutes before our earliest showtime of the day, and we close as the credits roll on last show of the day.
  • Our snack bar remains open during the show, until the credits roll.
  • We  do not pre-sale tickets for future dates (exceptions for special events).
