Word from the Royston Picture Palace

More great movies for you as the nights start to draw in. Starting the month is the excellent True Story with James Franco and Jonah Hill, as you have never seen them before.

After the Minion Mayhem in August, we have the amazing Inside Out for you as our family matinee in September, anticipating a large response we have added an extra date on the Sunday 6th at 5pm. After its recent outing at the highly successful Edinburgh Festival, you won’t want to miss the dark comedy The Legend of Barney Thompson with Robert Carlyle, Ray Winstone and the incredible Emma Thompson stealing the show.

Who could ever say we don’t mix it up here at the Palace, with Seth MacFarlane’s hilarious Ted 2 up next with Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation completing the weekend.

The final film for the month being the suspenseful Beyond the Reach, starring Michael Douglas and Jeremy Irvine.

Look out in the coming months for our improved website, and stay up to date on Twitter and Facebook. We love to hear your thoughts on your community cinema, and appreciate your support as always. Keep it local and enjoy the films this month.

The Royston Picture Palace Story

An initiative emerged in 2009 to re-introduce cinema to Royston. Royston Town Council refurbished the building whilst the town’s business, via Royston First, provided the cinema equipment.

Of course, introducing 21st century technology into a Victorian building was no mean feat, but in the summer of 2013 the Royston Picture Palace opened its doors to much acclaim.

The Royston Picture Palace is run by volunteers and performances take place on Friday and Saturday evenings, and occasional Saturday matinees, providing excellent value, quality entertainment for local people, just a few weeks after main release dates.

Tickets £7.50 Concessions £5.50
