AMC acquires Annapolis theater, six others as it expands national reach

AMC Entertainment Holdings Inc. has purchased an Annapolis movie theater as part of a deal that also includes the acquisition of six theaters in Connecticut and upstate New York. Leawood, Kansas-based AMC’s acquisition of the seven Bow Tie Cinemas locations includes Annapolis Mall 11 at the Westfield Annapolis Mall, which itself is soon to hit the market after the mall’s owner announced plans to downsize its U.S. portfolio. The other theaters included in the deal are Marquis 16, Royale 6, SoNo 8, Majestic 6 and Landmark 8 in Connecticut and Saratoga Springs 11 in New York.
