[edit] Coss Cinema

[edit] Description

Coss Cinema is a single screen theater built from an old drive-in. It's more like an auditorium now that it is enclosed, rather than a traditional theater. The floor inside is level rather than the normal incline. It has a cement floor that is perpetually sticky even in the off season and the smell of popcorn and engine oil never seem to go away.

[edit] History

Originally constructed as Lush Life Drive-in, it was paired with Lush Auto Repair to serve as a meeting place for car enthusiasts. It had one screen that showed old Elvis movies on the weekend while gearheads compared stereos and exhausts.

In the late 80s the drive-in was enclosed, renamed, and made into a substandard theater. Never really getting the crowds it had as a drive-in, Coss Cinema was forced to close to the public.

In a last ditch effort to keep it from being torn down it was sold to the local high school and used for Driver's Ed classes and Metal shop demonstrations.

[edit] Barricade Policy

A potential entry to the Lush Auto Repair a source or generators, it should be kept at Very Strongly and below. It is not a source of any equipment beyond items for Role Play and should not have entry restricted beyond what is acceptable to a Level 1 character.

[edit] Current Status

Most of West Becktown is ruined as is Coss Cinema. Also, the popcorn machine keeps burning the bottom layers.
