Night Shyamalan movie, the Campbell dine-in movie theater announced Friday afternoon that it was staying open, after previously announcing on Jan. 7 that both it and the Cedar Room lounge would close Jan. 25.

The status of the lawsuit is unclear. But it sounds like Pruneyard, which opened in 2018, will attempt to bring in more revenue by continuing to diversify its offerings, with more live music, magic and comedy shows and private theater rentals in addition to popular programs like the Culinary Cinema series."
