The Bridge multiplex at Penn is on the market

The Bridge, the movie multiplex at the edge of the University of Pennsylvania campus, is on the market, university spokesman Anthony Sorrentino confirmed yesterday.

National Amusements, the cash-strapped circuit that leases the six-screen property at 40th and Walnut Streets from the university and has operated it since opening in 2003, has put its lease in play. Rave Motion Pictures, a privately held chain based in Dallas, is "an interested party," Sorrentino said.

Jeremy Devine, vice president of marketing for Rave, would not confirm his company's interest yesterday. Rave, which has been in business since 1999, is known for its state-of-the-art digital projection and seating amenities. - Carrie Rickey
