Join us this Valentine's day for a special screening of romantic classic Moonstruck, which was proposed by our member Kirsty. The screening will be preceded by a cosy La bohème-scored cocktail hour, and tickets will include a 'Cher-ry cocktail' to set the mood.
Event timings:
18:45 - 19:45 'Cher-ry cocktail' hour
19:45 - 21:35 Screening of Moonstruck
The cocktail will be available in both an alcoholic and non-alcoholic version, and was created in collaboration with our friends at Luxardo, who are providing their Sour Cherry Gin and iconic Maraschino Cocktail Cherries for the occasion.
£16.50 tickets are available now and are limited to 2 per member, meaning you can bring a date or mate, even if they're not a member. A complimentary cocktail (alcoholic or non-alcoholic) will be included, and seating for the screening will be unallocated.
About the film:
A full moon, a New York City night, and love and music in the air... One of the most enchanting romantic comedies of all time assembles a flawless ensemble cast for a tender and boisterously funny look at a multigenerational Italian American family in Brooklyn, wrestling with the complexities of love and marriage at every stage of life. At the centre of it all is a radiant Cher as Loretta, an unlucky-in-love bookkeeper whose feelings about her engagement to the staid Johnny (Danny Aiello) are thrown into question after she meets his hot-blooded brother, Ronny (Nicolas Cage), and one night at the opera changes everything. Winner of the Academy Awards for best actress (Cher), supporting actress (Olympia Dukakis), and original screenplay (by playwright John Patrick Shanley), this modern-day fairy tale is swept along on passionate Puccini melodies, and directed by master storyteller Norman Jewison with the heightened emotion to match.
