Cinema classics outdoors in the area, or a galaxy far, far away
Enchanted Cinema has become a Cambridge summer fixture, and this July’s line-up promises a real box of delights. All of the month’s showings are in the secret garden at the Gonville Hotel, where there will be an outdoor bar and popcorn kiosk as well as magical light installations and live music before the film begins.
First up on Sunday 1 July is the undeniable smash hit of the year, The Greatest Showman, starring Hugh Jackman, Zac Efron and Zendaya, and packed with all those songs that have been haunting the download charts for months and months and months.
If you’re less about sequins and showtunes and more about pecs and planes, don’t miss Top Gun on Saturday 14 July – a classic tale of boy meets girl, boy sings to girl in crowded bar, boy finds out girl is his teacher. You can almost smell the jet fuel and testosterone.
Finally for July, don’t miss Chef on Sunday 15th, a top choice for foodies and film lovers. Directed by Jon Favreau, it stars Sofia Vergara and John Leguizamo. In keeping with the delicious theme, Enchanted Cinema will be putting on a special tailored menu for this showing.
For all performances: doors open at 7.30pm, with live music from 8pm, before the velvet curtains roll back and the film begins at 9pm.
