About The Remarkable Theater
Starting in Summer of 2020, the Remarkable Drive-in Theater began as a safe way to get families back to the movies in Westport. The Remarkable Theater is a non-profit 501(c)3 organization run by volunteers, whose mission is to “build a first class art house movie theater in downtown Westport, CT that provides purposeful employment to individuals with disabilities.”
The theater is tucked along the Saugatuck River at 50 Imperial Avenue, Westport, Connecticut.
