SINGAPORE \u2013 Westies seeking a family-friendly movie experience can now rejoice with the official opening of Shaw Theatres\u2019 eighth cinema outlet at Jem on June 27.<\/p>\n
The new cineplex in Jurong East features 10 halls, including its largest Dreamers hall, which is designed for families with young children.<\/p>\n
The hall has soft lighting, reduced audio levels, and lower contrast between projection and ambient light to provide a conducive environment for children.<\/p>\n
It is also fitted with a 5m-long slide and a 17 sq m ball pit with around 14,000 to 15,000 balls.<\/p>\n
The opening also marks the cinema operator\u2019s return to the West after its JCube outlet closed in 2023 when the mall shut down for redevelopment, it said in a statement on June 27.<\/p>\n
