Join us on Friday 26 September as we celebrate the launch of Ken Loach: A Retrospective with a members' party. Your first drink will be on the house, as our friends from Lost and Grounded Brewers are contributing to the community spirit by providing a complimentary beer for each attendee. You will also receive a raffle ticket, which means you may be lucky enough to walk away with a BluRay or DVD of one of Loach's films, free tickets, or another excellent prize!
Our guest musicians Oliver Hamilton & Mataio Austin Dean will perform a selection of protest songs, and we'll end the night with a screening of Ken Loach's 1991 Riff Raff, starring Robert Carlyle and Emer McCourt.
Tickets are £15 and are restricted to 2 per member, meaning you can bring a friend along, even if they're not a member. The ticket price include access to the pre-screening event with live music, a complimentary beer (or soft drink alternative), and an unallocated seat for the screening.
