In the main hall at Harston we now have a high quality projector; a big screen and a sound syste, so its time to make use of them. To this end we are starting a community cinema and inviting anyone in the local area to join us on cinema nights.
Hugh thanks to Better Brew for sponsoring this project so that everyone in Harston can benefit.
We plan on mostly showing National Theatre shows, to be a little different, but will throw in some films as well.
You are invited to:
Choose your event and book it via the website.
On the night bring your own:
* Chair – we provide chairs but you may have a more comfortable one – camping for example.
* Snacks – but if any snacks are too noisy they will be confiscated!.
* Refreshments – don’t forget to bring a glass was well.
Just sit back and enjoy the show, pretending that you have the best seats (which of course you do).
