Stage and Screen Stage and Screen is an online publication offering the latest Entertainment news of Productions on Stage, and on Screens.
Exciting changes have been happening at Nu Metro Cinemas that will bring a world class cinema experience to all its complexes.
By the end of November 2013 all 149 of the projectors at Nu Metro were 100% digital, meaning their customers will now get the latest world class sound and visual experience as provided by their Belgium equipment partners Barco – the world leaders in cinema projection.
As part of this digital conversion Barco has also offered the use of three 3D sound systems. Called Auro, these 3 systems are 3 of only 150 in the world and give you the most unparrelled immersive sound experience. Auro was installed at the Nu Metro complexes in Hyde Park Johannesburg, Pavilion in Durban and at the V & A Waterfront in Cape Town in January 2014.
As part of this roll out process, Nu Metro installed another 50 x 3D screens, equipped with RealD 3D technology, to its circuit across the country.
In addition to these exciting technology changes, Nu Metro launched a new VIP cinema concept called Scene. Customers at both Nu Metro V&A and Pavillion can enjoy this luxurious offering from today.
So what is Scene? It really is Nu Metro Cinemas’ new supreme luxury cinema and lounge. Selected screens in these complexes have been refurbished with luxurious fully reclining leather chairs, offering plenty of space to watch your movie in ultimate comfort.
Scene also boasts its own exclusive lounge where you can relax and enjoy a drink from the bar ranging from alcoholic beverages to fresh fruit juice, tea’s or coffee’s. Delicious light meals are also available from our exclusive menu, offering specialised, freshly prepared gourmet sandwiches, burgers platters and decadent desserts. For those with a sweet tooth and an eye on tradition, a wide range of confectionary popcorn and soda is still available.
“Nu Metro Cinemas is a progressive cinema business with a true focus on delivering a premium entertainment experience. We will continue to innovate our offering so that South Africans get the world class cinema offering they deserve.” says Luke Roberts the Nu Metro Cinemas General Manager . “Our VIP offering, Scene, is the first of its kind in South Africa and a concept that has worked extremely well overseas.
