"Each of the 20 private screening rooms is fitted with plush recliners, surround-sound and wall-to-wall screens, with capacity for up to 20 guests, creating an experience that feels part screening, part dinner party and part cocktail reception."
"The concept merges comfort and spectacle, with titles ranging from current blockbusters like Wicked: For Good to a library of classics for a special night with friends or family. "For over a century, cinema has been experienced in a crowded room surrounded by strangers," League said in a statement. "We've changed that. Sharing dinner, drinks, a great movie and the post-movie conversation with people you love in a spacious, relaxed environment is very special. We're excited to share this new experience with New York City.""
Metro Cinema opens in Chelsea at 131 Eighth Avenue, offering 20 private screening suites that seat up to 20 guests each.

Menus rotate seasonally and include dishes like kampachi crudo, mushroom risotto, emerald prawns and matcha cheesecake tied to featured films. Programming includes current blockbusters such as Wicked: For Good and a library of classics for private gatherings, cocktails and post-movie conversation.
