Operations

Showcase operates a total of 16 theaters in the United States: nine in the Greater Boston area within Massachusetts, and a further two in Rhode Island; four in the New York City suburbs; [2] [3] and one in Springdale, Ohio. These theaters operate under the brands Showcase Cinemas, Cinema de Lux, and (in the sole case of Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts) Showcase SuperLux. [4] Several now-shuttered locations in New York City formerly operated under the name Multiplex Cinemas. [2] The Cinema de Lux brand was established in 2008 to denote locations that offered in-theater dining options and full bars with seat delivery service. All locations are wheelchair accessible and offer assistance devices for hearing- and sight-impaired customers. [1]

Internationally, Showcase operates 8 theaters in Argentina, [5] 29 in Brazil, [6] and 16 in the United Kingdom. [7] [8]
