City Varieties Music Hall – Screenings Dates Set

After installing up to the minute cinema systems last year, City Varieties has scheduled live and delayed screenings of a variety of productions, guaranteed to prove popular with Leeds theatre-goers.

Here’s a tempting list:

Julie – live screening on Thursday 6 September at 6.50 p.m.  With Vanessa Kirby (The Crown) and Eric Kofi Abrefa (The Amen Corner)  Billed as both shocking and fiercely relevant in its new and contemporary setting.

Terry Abraham’s Q & A + a screening of his Alan Hinkes documentary on Friday 7 September at 7.30 p.m.  Terry tells the story of one of only a handful of people who have conquered the world’s 14 highest mountains; his spirit, ambition and his passion for the outdoors.  Growing old gracefully is not for this man.
