This Christmas, be transported into an ethereal world where a sprinkling of fairy dust makes dreams
come true. This enchanting ballet by The Royal Ballet’s Founding Choreographer Frederick Ashton is
a theatrical experience for all the family.
Stuck at home and put to work by her spoiled Step-Sisters, Cinderella’s life is dreary and dull.
Everything changes when she helps a mysterious woman out...With a little bit of magic, she is
transported into an ethereal new world – one where fairies bring the gifts of the seasons, where
pumpkins turn into carriages, and where true love awaits.

Directed by Bob Clark
Starring Peter Billingsley, Zack Ward, Melinda Dillon
Duration 104 mins
Based on the humorous writings of author Jean Shepherd, this beloved holiday movie follows the wintry exploits of youngster Ralphie Parker (Peter Billingsley), who spends most of his time dodging a bully (Zack Ward) and dreaming of his ideal Christmas gift, a "Red Ryder air rifle." Frequently at odds with his cranky dad (Darren McGavin) but comforted by his doting mother (Melinda Dillon), Ralphie struggles to make it to Christmas Day with his glasses and his hopes intact.
Dementia Friendly Cinemas have proven to be very therapeutic for people with memory problems and their families. Besides engaging the brain and stimulating emotions, being part of an audience enjoying a film helps people with dementia and their carers to feel less isolated and also challenges the stigma associated with the condition.
All Nostalgic Cinema performances have subtitles to assist full enjoyment of the film by any members of the audience who are hard of hearing.
Whilst promoted as a dementia friendly screening, we hope anyone who loves the old films will come along for an afternoon of fond memories.
Tickets £5 - includes hot drink, biscuits and chat after the screening.
Ticket price includes £1 admin fee
Seats are not allocated for these showings.
Nostalgic Cinema screenings are kindly sponsored by Churchill Retirement Living - specialists in developing attractive, purpose-built retirement apartments.
