Independent cinema bosses say they feel confident about the future as Covid restrictions lift.
Independent cinema bosses are "confident" about the future as moviegoers flock back to screens as coronavirus restrictions lift.Mask-wearing and social distancing remain at some sites,Rob Younger, owner of Parkway Cinema in Barnsley, said they have seen an "immense" demand for some films.In 2020, the 450-seat Hebden Bridge Picture House, which shows a mixture of mainstream and art-house films, saw trade for just one week in between lockdowns.
"We've had good attendances, but we're in the middle of summer which is traditionally not a good time for cinemas. People don't want to be sat in a dark room.Despite being open for just a couple of weeks, movie-lovers are back but social distancing has dramatically cut capacity. "Admits are not where we want them to be, no cinema is. We're all way down but that's because of the films and restrictions," he says.Speaking to the BBC in a foyer full of people, Mr Younger says there are "encouraging" signs people are coming back.
