Braumart Theatre to shine with “Marqueetown” documentary

IRON MOUNTAIN, Mich. (WZMQ) – This weekend, the U.P.-based documentary film Marqueetown will take center stage in Iron Mountain, captivating audiences with its narrative of the restoration journey of Marquette’s iconic Nordic Theatre. Set to air at 1 p.m. Central Time on Sunday, the showing promises to be an engaging experience, offering viewers insight into the historic theater’s transformation.

The film, a testament to community spirit and preservation efforts, will be showcased as a donation-based event, with a suggested contribution of $10. All proceeds from Sunday’s showing will be dedicated to funding forthcoming renovations for the Braumart Theatre, underscoring the significance of preserving cultural landmarks.

Seth Anderson, Vice President of the Braumart Board, expressed his enthusiasm for the event, stating, “Anyone that comes to this can check out the renovation plans right here in the lobby…You can see what the Braumart will look like after renovation. It’s a great chance to talk about that and hear from us what we’re planning. And look at the actual, what this will look like when it’s all done.”

Reflecting on the documentary’s significance, Anderson remarked, “This is a documentary about a big renovation that happened in Marquette. If you’ve been up there, you see the theaters that are right there on Washington, across from each other. And this is about the Nordic Theatre that got renovated, and it’s turned into a beautiful space right now. So, it’s really important to us to show what goes into that, and what kind of community is built around these historic theaters.”

The presence of the filmmakers adds an extra layer of excitement to the event. There will be opportunities for the audience to pose questions to the creators about their project.

Marqueetown promises not only to entertain, but also to enlighten audiences about the rich heritage and enduring spirit of the Upper Peninsula’s cultural landscape.

“And this documentary just hits all of those things, so we’re so happy to have the filmmakers coming here to talk about it with us and just show what they had to do,” added Anderson.
