Relaxed Screenings

(Autism-friendly screenings)

What are they?

Autism-Friendly Screenings are subtly-adapted screenings that create an environment that is welcoming for people with a range of conditions such as autism, learning differences and cognitive disorders. They have sound levels turned down, the lights left on at a low level and there are no trailers at the beginning of the film. Film-goers are free to bring their own food and drinks to the cinema, are able to make noise and to sit where they feel most comfortable. Seats are sold on an unallocated basis for these screenings, and a quiet room is made available adjacent to the auditorium should anyone require to use it.

Our next Relaxed Screenings will be:

Dog Man (U) Saturday 1 March @ 12.15pm

Bridget Jones: Mad About The Boy (15) Sunday 23 March @ 3.45pm

Disney’s Snow White (PG TBC) Saturday 5 April @ 1.15pm

Flow (U) Wednesday 16 April @ 4.00pm

A Minecraft Movie (PG TBC) Saturday 31 May @ 1.30pm

How To Train Your Dragon (PG TBC) Sunday 22 June @ 1.30pm 1.15pm

Subtitled Screenings

What are they?

Subtitled screenings provide a transcription of the audio from a film, displayed at the bottom of the cinema screen.  Along with the dialogue from the film, the subtitles include non-dialogue audio such as "(sighs)" or "(door creaks)".
