NEW YEAR's RESOLUTIONS... Well here we are already - 2015. A new year, new films and a whole host of new resolutions. Our first is to invest in a new projector to allow us to bring you the films you want, at the time you want. No more having to wait two or three months for that latest release... But we’ll still be delivering a wide range of films, world and independent cinema, as well as the classics that you just don’t get the chance to see on the big screen elsewhere. Then we want to look at installing live satellite streaming, to bring you the best of the National Theatre, the Royal Opera House and more. Of course these things don’t come cheap.
BOOK ONLINE
But our third resoulution is to continue to bring you the best value for your money. So although our prices are set to rise, we’ve kept it to just an increase of 50p per ticket and no rise in price for U16s or unwaged. We can’t say fairer than that. So to welcome in 2015 we have a great mix of popular new releases, world cinema as well as a few true classics - inlcuding a very special screening of the 1920 silent German masterpiece, The Cabinet of Dr Caligari, complete with an original muscial score written and performed live by local composer, Colin Humphreys. So here’s to the New Year! Paul & Esther
