A new venue, and an anniversary screening of a modern British classic
Join us this Spring at a very exciting new location - the Wardrobe Theatre. Our first screening there is a 25th anniversary screening of the coming-of-age comedy-drama Billy Elliot. Jamie Bell’s stunning, award-winning debut performance as the eponymous boy who wants to learn how to ballet dance is still a tour de force, and a highlight of 21st Century British cinema.
Art meets horror in this award-winning turn from Natalie Portman
Black Swan is the second film rounding off our inaugural evening at The Wardrobe Theatre. Natalie Portman’s Oscar-winning performance as a tormented ballet dancer in a Swan Lake production takes us deep into the world of obsession and transformation, where the pursuit of perfection comes with a dark and haunting price…
Like its OAP protagonists, this comedy-drama has aged beautifully
For April’s Planetarium outing, we’re hosting a double bill of sci-fi films from the acclaimed director Ron Howard. First up is a 40th anniversary screening of Cocoon. This heartwarming tale may have E.T. influences, but it’s got a very human heart as it explores youth and ageing in a timeless manner. No wonder actor Don Ameche took home an Oscar for this gem.
30 years of the classic space drama, on the anniversary of the mission launch itself
Our double bill of Ron Howard films continues with a double milestone. Not only is his Oscar-winning biopic Apollo 13 turning 30 this year, but we’re screening it on the 55th anniversary of the launch of the real-life mission. It’s a remarkable adaptation of a nail-biting true story, that deserves to be seen on the Planetarium’s big screen!
Join us for a celebration of innovation at Aerospace Bristol
Due to huge demand in February, we’re back for another screening of The Italian Job! Released in the same year as Concorde’s maiden flight, it helped make the Mini Cooper an international star, and remains a cornerstone of British pop culture. Expect an evening celebrating innovation and icons as we take you back to the 60s for an evening of comic capers and high-octane car chases!
