Event details
There's more realism and less romanticism in this gutsy take on novelist Jane Austen's classic period drama. Set in 18th century England, it sees a class-obsessed mother trying to marry off her five daughters to rich men. Only one of the brood objects to this match-making frenzy - smart-mouthed Elizabeth who, having met arrogant but eligible bachelor Mr Darcy, seems more interested in winding him up than romance. As time passes, the duo's feelings for each other intensify, although Lizzie still refuses to believe she could be falling for such an egotistical man.
For this special screening, crafting materials will be provided for attendees to create a beginner-friendly cross-stitch bookmark. The screening will be relaxed with low lighting in the cinema throughout to allow audience members to work on their craft project.
