Boutique theater and unique programming is coming to Brookfield.

Silverspot Cinema announced today that it will debut its first Wisconsin location at The Corners of Brookfield. Additional opening details will be forthcoming; however the theater is expected to open its doors by mid-June.

The brand, which established its first theater in Naples, Florida, is a privately held, customer-centric company offering enhanced entertainment experiences in a boutique environment. Programming includes traditional Hollywood fare along with independent films, award-winners and a cultural arts program featuring opera, ballet and concerts.

Brookfield’s 41,0000-square foot boutique theater is located on the east side of the town center and features nine auditoriums divided between two stories, in-theater dining and a bar and lounge on the main floor. The theater also boasts direct elevator access to its lobby from The Corners’ expansive covered parking, providing protection during inclement weather.

"We are thrilled to be joining The Corners and can’t wait to welcome new team members and the community to our newest theater," said Gonzalo Ulivi, managing partner of Silverspot Cinema.

"We pride ourselves on catering to the true film, food and fun lover, and we look forward to bringing our exceptional entertainment, in-theater dining and relaxed luxury experience to the Town of Brookfield and greater Milwaukee area."

Thanks to Silverspot’s premium dine-in-theater service, guests can look forward to elevated American-style fare developed in partnership with New York-based Craveable Hospitality Group. Menu options are expected to include shrimp lettuce wraps, tuna tartare and fresh salads, flatbreads, sandwiches and entrees, including filet mignon.

In addition, Silverspot Cinema will debut its new S Bar cocktail lounge concept at the Town of Brookfield location, offering indoor seating for more than 70 guests along with an outdoor patio.

Each auditorium will feature custom-designed fully-reclining plush seats which offer three levels of adjustable heating, a table for in-theater dining and a call button for in-theater service.

Silverspot offers state-of-the-art technology in all auditoriums, including Barco Laser Projection and Dolby Surround Sound Systems. 

"We’re thrilled for Silverspot to open its first Wisconsin location at The Corners this June," said Robert Gould, Vice President of U.S. Operations for IM Properties, the developer of The Corners.

"Silverspot’s unique entertainment offerings, high-quality dining and top-notch customer service are the perfect fit for our town center and will help to further the excellent experience we offer visitors."
