Latest films to be shown in the Public Hall

The next film shows will be at the Public Hall on Saturday 20th October so buy your tickets now.

The Simpsons Movie will be shown at 5.00 pm and is, of course, based on the TV series. It has a very clever plot and non-stop irreverent humour. Suffice to say that Homer acts quite heroically, so much so that he rides off with Marge on a motorbike into the sunset! It has been very well received and should be great viewing for young and old alike.

Hairspray, showing at 7.30 pm, has also been hugely successful and is the third largest grossing musical in American cinema history. It's an adaptation of the Tony Award-winning 2002 Broadway musical of the same name. Set in 1962 Baltimore, the film follows a "pleasantly-plump" teen named Tracy Turnblad as she simultaneously pursues stardom as a dancer on a local TV show and rallies against racial segregation. The film stars John Travolta, Michelle Pfeiffer, Christopher Walken and Amanda Bynes and introduces newcomer Nikki Blonsky as Tracy Turnblad.

Tickets cost £2.50 for juniors and £5.00 for adults and are available at the Post Office or from Public Hall committee members.
