Janine Waters, Artistic Director at The Edge tell us about the best thing to happen in Chorlton in.. oooh, ages!
“We’re so excited to launch The Edge Cinema, right here in the same space where you already experience great live theatre. Don’t worry, live theatre isn’t going anywhere! The cinema is just another way for us to do what we love most: bring great stories to you, whether they’re told on stage or on screen.
“Our cinema will be programmed by me, but most importantly, with you. We want our audiences to help shape what’s on screen, whether that’s suggesting titles, themes, or hidden gems we might have missed.
We can expect a vibrant and varied line-up, including:
- Popular mainstream films (shown around three months after their cinema release)
- Themed seasons and film classics
- World cinema and independent film festivals
- NT Live Encore screenings
- Relaxed screenings and accessible showings
- Saturday morning family cinema
“Every film we show has to earn its place on our screen…we want to be sure it’s something our audiences will love, talk about and come back for.
“We can’t wait to share this next chapter with you and to welcome you to The Edge Cinema Chorlton’s home for great stories.”
