Malco reopens Memphis theaters, hoping people will come and movies will stay
Malco Theatres president and chief operating officer David Tashie sits in one of the remodeled auditoriums at Malco Paradiso Cinema on Thursday, Aug. 19. “We feel like people want to get back out of the house, and they’ve always liked to get out of the house and go to movies,” said Tashie.

The Memphis-based regional movie chain, with 36 locations across six states, will start reopening its indoor theaters Aug. 21, with significant physical upgrades that involve more luxurious – and reserved – seating.
