A series of misunderstandings leads to a chorus girl traveling to Paris to represent the American theatre, where she falls in love with a befuddled bureaucrat.



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.

Laurent Tirard’s hilarious comedy sees Mother Veronique and the five eccentric sisters of the convent of St. Benedict set out to save the local nursing home by entering the local bicycle race…


When the local nursing home finds itself in dire straits and in danger of falling to pieces, it’s down to Mother Veronique (Valérie Bonneton) and the five eccentric sisters of the convent of St. Benedict to find a way to help. 


Spotting a poster for a bike race with a €25,000 cash prize (and the incentive of a trip to the Vatican for the winner!), the sisters might just have their answer. The only drawbacks are that they are terrible cyclists, and their rival convent, led by Mother Veronique’s childhood nemesis Mother Josephine (Sidse Babett Knudsen), have their own plans for the prize money – and just a little more experience… But God works in mysterious ways!

Adam Sweet Band

Adam Sweet Band
Adam Sweet Band
Running Time: 2hrs 15

Tickets: Advanced: £15. General Admission £19
All ticket prices include a £2 booking fee


 Adam Sweet delivers brooding blues and rootsy rock, balancing richly detailed song writing with soulful vocals and expertly piercing guitar work.

 Taking his cue from the British blues boom sounds and rock ri ff s of the 60s and 70s, the independent blues-rock guitarist and singer-songwriter has carved out his own territory between classic rock, blues and Americana. Since first taking to the live scene in the South West of England at the age of 15 he has worked in various guises: solo acoustic, session player and with his own bands. The result is a consummate ability to switch from sensitive singer-songwriter to full-on blues rocker with ease, as demonstrated in his countless live performances and his output as a recording artist. 

Sonically, Adam is a guitar-slidin' force of nature whose songs can fi ll a hall with their effortless verve. Ranging from quietly desperate blues tunes to careening full- tilt rock, his approach is a testament to the idea that less can, in fact, be considerably more. A young bluesman with an ancient soul and a large presence in the here-and-now. 

Adam picked up a guitar aged seven but his interest was only smouldering for the first few years. A spell studying classical guitar failed to provide the spark of inspiration he needed but things began to change when he started private tui ti on with Adrian John Loveridge, a veteran of the 1980’s Californian music scene who had just moved back to his hometown of Lyme Regis, Dorset. Guitar lessons suddenly got much cooler with tales of life as an LA session musician and Adrian’s gold record gleaming on the wall. The breakthrough came when Adam’s new mentor took him to see blues-rock band The Hamsters at Lyme’s Marine Theatre. Adam le ft with Jimi Hendrix ri ff s ringing in his ears and was soon playing regularly on the local circuit recreating the music of his newfound guitar heroes.

 In the years that followed Adam performed countless gigs in numerous bands where he honed his craft and found his voice before embarking on a solo career...

His acclaimed debut album ‘Small Town Thinking’ , recorded both in Devon and Nashville, was released at the start of 2014. The album steadily gathered approval with Adam’s “ timeless” gift earning him rave reviews including a full 5-star rating and Album of the Month award in Guitar Techniques Magazine, praising the album for  offering a “whole new perspective on the (blues) genre”. 

Adam’s 2017 EP ‘Take Your Time’ was a stripped back acoustic offering that perfectly captured the essence of his renowned one-man shows. It was produced and performed solely by Adam and featured a track written with founder member of Level 42 Boon Gould . Tracks from this release featured heavily on BBC Introducing and received several accolades - “Wonderful rock, blues and roots guitar and very classy arrangements” (Album of the Week, Laurel Canyon Music). 

In 2020 Adam marked his evolution into a fully- fledged blues-rock artist with the release of his second full studio album ‘Sink or Swim’ , cementing his unique blend of blue-eyed blues and soulful southern rock. Adam’s sound developed from working closely with band members Ian Jennings on bass (Je ff Beck, Robert Plant, Ronnie Wood, Mick Fleetwood) and Garry Kroll on drums (Mark Ronson, Joss Stone, Sandi Thom). Recorded with producer Josiah J Manning (Kris Barras Band) at Momentum Studios, Plymouth , the album captured the energy of the band whilst always serving the richly detailed song writing. ‘Sink or Swim’ received extensive radio play spending two months in the Independent Blues Broadcasters Association Top 40 chart and was listed in the Top 3 Breakthrough Albums of 2020 by ‘Get Ready To ROCK’ and included in the Best Americana Albums of 2020 by Dutch blogger ‘Slim Chance’ .



 In July 2021 Adam released the single ‘ Dead Flowers ’ – this cover of the Rolling Stones country-rock classic became a fi rm favourite during the lockdown livestreams Adam was broadcasting from home during the pandemic. By popular request he recorded the song, which also marked 50 years since the release of the original. It stays true to Adam’s acoustic lockdown version, with his band providing the rhythm sec ti on plus vocal harmonies by Alex Hart . The track was recorded, produced and mixed by Adam at home whilst he and his band waited to get back out on the road. 

A ft er the lockdown Adam focused on what he missed most during the enforced down ti me - playing live with his band! With the addition of his old friend Paddy Blight (The Hoosiers, Andy Timmons, Wildwood Kin) on bass and new recruit Thomas Hughes (Nektar, Eddie Floyd, Geno Washington, Danny Bryant, The Selecter) on the organ, the rejuvenated Adam Sweet Band have been rapidly gaining a reputation as one of the tightest units on the circuit. In 2023 they were crowned Introducing Stage winners at The Great British Rock and Blues Festival and have continued to build on this with triumphant performances at venues and festivals across the UK, including Sidmouth & Rye International Jazz & Blues Festivals, Jazz Jurassica , multiple shows at Exeter Phoenix and supports for the likes of Wishbone Ash, Kris Barras Band and Elles Bailey. 

In February 2024 the band released a limited edition EP ‘Live at Crescent Records’ featuring some of the favourite cover songs from their live repertoire. Recorded and filmed live in one day in the stunning Wiltshire studio, the session captured the magic of the band's onstage chemistry with the accompanying series of YouTube videos clocking up over 80,000 views in the first few months of release. They’ve continued to perform across the UK in 2024 including debut performances at the Brudenell Social Club in Leeds, London's iconic 100 Club and a headline slot at the Great British Rhythm & Blues Festival in Colne.
