Chicago’s oldest movie palace, the New 400 Theater in Rogers Park, is roaring back to life after a three-year hiatus, set to reopen July 31st with a nostalgic lineup including “Spider-Man: Brand New Day” and “I Want Your Sex.” Originally built in 1912 and a cornerstone of Chicago’s cinematic history, the theater survived vaudeville, blockbusters, and even pivoted during the pandemic to private rentals and COVID testing. Though fans rallied with fundraising screenings, closure in 2023 seemed final — until Jordan Stancil, a Michigan theater operator, stepped in to restore it with modern tech and a diverse film slate. Tickets go on sale July 27th, starting at $6 for matinees and Tuesdays, $11 for evenings — a triumphant second act for a beloved landmark.
