Sat 15 November // 14:00
Tickets: £5 (full)
Guillermo del Toro has long circled Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, the gothic tale of creation, obsession and ruin that has haunted cinema since its beginnings. With Oscar Isaac as Victor Frankenstein and Jacob Elordi reimagining the monster with terrifying freshness, del Toro finally delivers the film he has longed to make.
Shot on vast sets in Toronto and on location in Scotland, and steeped in detail from production design to costume, this is a work of monstrous scale and intimacy. Del Toro strips Shelley’s myth down to its raw emotions: ambition, loneliness, desire, dread. A magnum opus from a filmmaker who has always seen the monster as the mirror of our humanity.
Accessibility - Covid Care
To keep everyone safe, FFP2 (or better) masks are required for all at this event, unless you are exempt.
You don’t need to disclose your barrier to wearing a mask if you’re exempt; however, if you are able to wear a mask, you will be doing so for the benefit of the whole group - including attendees who are unable to wear a mask.
We will provide FFP2 masks to anyone who needs one on arrival. Please bring your own if you are able to.
Please do not attend if you have a new cough, sore throat, fever or if you have other symptoms of any kind of contagious illness.
The event will be 50% capacity at most.
Ventilation in The Cube auditorium replaces the air in an hour.
Why are we requiring masks?
Covid is still here and is still disabling people, Long Covid affects marginalised people at the highest rates, and we want to be more accessible to people who are currently shut out of public spaces due to a lack of airborne virus mitigations. People who are very unwell or who are caring for people who are unwell don’t have safe places to go outside of their homes in the winter months.
Good quality (FFP2) masks are the best way to protect each other from airborne viruses such as Covid, flu and colds - lets do our part to keep our community safe!
