UPDATE (2021-05-21): I've updated the extension based on the tweaks the Music Box has made to allow them to operate during the pandemic, and even made a few improvements based on their recent site changes! Welcome back to cinema, everyone!
I love Chicago's Music Box Theatre. It's a gorgeous venue with great staff, and I've been attending screenings there for more years than I'll publicly admit to. However, as they've added more festivals to their schedule, I've found myself wishing the website had a few more options to ease planning one's filmgoing itinerary. Consequently, this extension adds the following features to their website:
- Adds a link to showtimes to discern the room a film is screened in
- Adds a calendar picker to select showtime dates, as opposed to having to click through day-by-day
- Allows you to add a future showtime to your Google Calendar
PLEASE NOTE: Apart from being a paying Music Box Member, I have no affiliation with the Music Box Theatre or Music Box Films.

We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others.
