Dear Visitor,

With memories of the chilly, damp start to the season still lingering, Chiddingfold Cinema has a line-up to warm you up and put a Spring in your step.
We start with the return of a favourite from Darkest Peru: Paddington 2

Paddington 2 (2017) Starring Hugh Bonneville as Henry Brown & Hugh Grant as Phoenix Buchanan Paddington is happily settled with the Brown family in Windsor Gardens, where he has become a popular member of the community, spreading joy and marmalade wherever he goes. While searching for the perfect present for his beloved Aunt Lucy's 100th birthday, Paddington spots a unique pop-up book in Mr. Gruber's antique shop, and embarks upon a series of odd jobs to buy it. But when the book is stolen, it's up to Paddington and the Browns to unmask the thief. Show Date & Time: Friday, Apr 6th 8:00 pm Buy Tickets

(and yes, there will be marmalade cake!)

Followed by an Oscar-winning comedy classic, featuring one of the finest closing scenes in film history:

The Apartment (1960) Starring Jack Lemmon as C.C. Baxter & Shirley MacLaine as Fran Kubelik  Classic romantic comedy, which won the 1961 Best Picture Oscar, and the Best Director prize for Billy Wilder. C.C. Baxter is the proud owner of a bijou apartment right in the centre of Manhattan – only a short walk from work. The problem is he rarely gets to stay there as his bosses at Consolidated Life Insurance are forever ‘borrowing’ the keys for their extramarital liaisons. Show Date & Time: Friday, Apr 20th 8:00 pm Buy Tickets

Then, in May, we're only putting on a single show. But what a show it is!

The Greatest Showman (2017) Starring Hugh Jackman as P.T. Barnum & Michelle Williams as Charity Barnum Musical biography of the self-proclaimed "inventor of show business", as the penniless Phineas Taylor Barnum gambles, innovates, charms and exploits his way to the (big) top, creating the most famous circus show in the world.  Appropriately enough fiction and reality are soon blurred. Featuring glitz and glamour galore, plus a soundtrack that will stick in your head for weeks, this is a real crowd-pleaser: exactly what the man himself would have wanted. Show Date & Time: Friday, May 18th 8:00 pm Buy Tickets
