Event Details
A cynical London music executive heads to a remote Cornish village on a stag weekend where he’s pranked by his boss into trying to sign a group of shanty singing fishermen.
He becomes the ultimate ‘fish out of water’ as he struggles to gain the respect and enthusiasm of the unlikely boy band and their families, who value friendship and community over fame and fortune. As he’s drawn deeper into the traditional way of life he’s forced to reevaluate his own integrity and ultimately question what success really means.

A young, ambitious New York City matchmaker finds herself torn between the perfect match and her imperfect ex.
With biting wit and unexpected twists, the film exposes how the relentless pursuit of material gain can both unite and divide, pushing each character to their breaking point. As secrets surface and loyalties are tested, they’re forced to decide what they’re truly willing to risk for happiness — and who they might lose along the way.

Event Details
You are warmly invited to join us at the interest evening to find out how to be part of our exciting spring production of The Unfriend by Doctor Who’s Steven Moffat.
Peter and Debbie are enjoying a cruise – a celebration of twenty years of marriage, and a break from their annoying teenagers. They befriend fellow passenger, Elsa Jean Krakowski, an eccentric American with a fondness for Donald Trump. There’s something slightly unsettling in her overeager friendliness… but there’s no point rocking the boat if you’re about to get off it.
Back home, in the comfort of suburbia, Elsa suddenly turns up on Peter and Debbie’s doorstep, unexpectedly. And when they look up their house guest online, unearthing some hair-raising evidence, their good nature is challenged as never before. What kind of danger have they allowed to take up residence in their guest room? And can they bring themselves to say anything about it? Sometimes, the truth is just too impolite.
Steven Moffat’s play The Unfriend takes a hilarious and satirical look at middle-class England’s disastrous instinct always to appear nice.
Come and find out more and how you can be involved in this is a superbly written funny play. The cast consists of a teenage male and female, 2 adult males and 2 adult females, one, Elsa being a Trump loving eccentric American.

Event Details
Wild Beauty is the coming together of three friends who are captured by creation.
Olivia Willoughby – I believe art is a spiritual distillation of life. I love to bring as much of the soul and life of an animal as I can to the canvas. Those things that go beyond words but which art says so well.
Olivia is a contemporary realist painter, harnessing those magical qualities unique to her medium of oils which bestow a luminous and living quality on each piece.
Sofie Page – I am captivated by the beauty of the natural world and by every living creature we inhabit it with. When painting I prefer to work in oil to capture the texture and depth of an animal, I feel a deep connection and longing to understand its personality and spirit.
Helen Baddeley – In contrast to her fellow artist friends, Helen’s semi abstract landscapes communicate the essence of how a place or moment makes you feel. Working in acrylic and oil paint, as well as printmaking, capturing light
and movement to draw the onlooker beyond the canvas.
Open 10am to 4pm daily. Free admission.

Event Details
The magician Herr Drosselmeyer needs to save his nephew. Hans-Peter has been transformed into a Nutcracker; the only way to save him is for the Nutcracker to defeat the Mouse King and find a girl to love and care for him.
A flicker of hope comes in the form of the young Clara, whom Drosselmeyer meets at a Christmas party. With some magic, a cosy Christmas gathering turns into a marvellous adventure.
Peter Wright’s The Nutcracker has enchanted audiences since its 1984 premiere by the Company. Featuring Tchaikovsky’s most familiar melodies and brought to life by Julia Trevelyan Oman’s exquisite designs, The Nutcracker is sure to be a festive firecracker for all ages.
Duration: 3h 10m minutes, one interval (to be confirmed)
Please note: This is a special inclusive/children’s screening. Lights will not be lowered all the way and we will show the Royal Ballet’s animated Story of the Nutcracker before the main performance. Audience members will be free to come in and out of the auditorium.

Event Details
An exhibition bringing together the tactile depth of ceramics and the quiet intensity of landscape photography.
Ruth Readman’s hand built vessels are rooted in the natural world, echoing textures of earth, stone, and weathered surfaces. Her work invites touch and reflection, blurring the line between functional object and expressive artwork.
Alongside, Dan Croft’s atmospheric landscape photography captures fleeting light, shifting skies, and the enduring presence of land.
Together, their practices create a dialogue between form and image, clay and lens, offering fresh perspectives on how we see, feel, and connect with our surrounding landscapes.
Open 10.30am to 5pm daily. Free admission.

At one of her lavish parties, celebrated Parisian courtesan Violetta is introduced to Alfredo Germont. The two fall madly in love, and though hesitant to leave behind her life of luxury and freedom, Violetta follows her heart.
But the young couple’s happiness is short-lived, as the harsh realities of life soon come knocking.
As intimate as it is sumptuous, La traviata features some of opera’s most famous melodies, and is a star vehicle for its leading soprano role sung by Ermonela Jaho. In director Richard Eyre’s world of seductive grandeur, the tender and devastating beauty at the centre of Verdi’s opera shines bright.

Picasso: A Rebel In Paris takes an unprecedented and alternative look at the
maestro of modernity.
The film focuses on the story of a young immigrant, poor but destined to become one of the most important icons of the 20th century.
The film moves continuously in and out of the Musée Picasso in Paris, which has the largest existing collection dedicated to the painter with 6,000 masterpieces and 200,000 pieces of archive material, and follows Picasso through the Parisian neighbourhoods where he lived, from the early days in ateliers with no heating to the large middle-class apartments where his success began: a physical and intellectual journey to gain a deeper understanding of his work and spirit.
Tickets: £15. Members, Friends and under 18s £12.50.

What happens when a cinema’s Lord of the Rings marathon goes terribly wrong?
At the local cinema, all hell breaks loose when the ushers misplace the DVDs of The Lord of the Rings trilogy – every single copy! With only the soundtracks left in hand, the team of hapless ushers must somehow improvise an entire three-film saga in front of a live audience.
Get ready for an uproarious evening of comedy, chaos, and utter nonsense, as they attempt to recreate the epic tale of hobbits, elves, and orcs – without any visuals, any planning, or any clue what they’re doing.
Will Frodo ever make it to Mordor? Will Aragorn get crowned king? Will Gollum stop stealing the show? Will anyone even remember who’s supposed to be who?! It’s a show that’s more fun than a barrel of hobbits, and definitely more chaotic than a Gandalf speech.
If you’ve ever wanted to see Gollum fight a battle with sound effects, or Gandalf desperately trying to remember what happens next, then you’re in for a hilarious treat!
Tickets: £20. Members, Friends and under 18s £18.

Event Details
The peasant girl Giselle has fallen in love with Albrecht. When she discovers that he is actually a nobleman promised to another, she kills herself in despair.
Her spirit joins the Wilis: the vengeful ghosts of women hell-bent on killing any man who crosses their path in a dance to the death. Wracked with guilt, Albrecht visits Giselle’s grave, where he must face the Wilis – and Giselle’s ghost.
Peter Wright’s 1985 production of this quintessential Romantic ballet is a classic of The Royal Ballet repertory. Set to Adolphe Adam’s evocative score and with atmospheric designs by John Macfarlane, Giselle conjures up the earthly and otherworldly realms in a tale of love, betrayal and redemption.

Princess Pamina has been captured. Her mother, the Queen of the Night, tasks the young Prince Tamino with her daughter’s rescue.
But when Tamino and his friendly sidekick, Papageno, embark on their adventure, they soon learn that when it comes to the quest for love, nothing is as it really seems. Guided by a magic flute, they encounter monsters, villains, and a mysterious brotherhood of men – but help, it turns out, comes when you least expect it.

A star cast including Julia Bullock as Pamina, Amitai Pati as Tamino, Huw Montague Rendall as Papageno, Kathryn Lewek as the Queen of the Night, and Soloman Howard as Sarastro, led by French conductor Marie Jacquot in her Covent Garden debut.
