London is being terrorised by a Jack the Ripper-style murderer, 'The Avenger', who targets young blonde-haired women.

A mysterious new lodger arrives at the home of Mr and Mrs Bunting, whose daughter Daisy is being courted by a policeman on the case. When the lodger begins behaving strangely, he attracts suspicion, particularly when he shows an interest in Daisy...

This screening of the original 1927 Alfred Hitchcock film will feature a new music score performed live by acclaimed soundscapers Minima, a Bristol based quartet who use instrumentation including cello, double bass, baritone guitar, acoustic and electric guitars, mandolin, autoharp, dulcimer, synthesizer, glockenspiel and drum kit to create a unique live experience.

A magical blend of live performance, puppetry, and cinema.
— The Skinny ★★★★
 

A live cinema play told from the perspective of a dog. 

A dog with a bird-killing problem. Two people stitching their relationship together. A house filled with taxidermy animals. When a young couple responds to a dog-sitting advert expecting a free holiday, they stumble into an unexpected tradition.

Using cameras, puppets, and diorama sets, five performers weave together a live animation told from the perspective of a dog.  A delicate, eerie, and amusing look at three lives, human and non-human, from emerging live-cinema company Buzzcut. A “sold out must see” (★★★★ Beyond the Curtain) from Edinburgh Fringe 2024.

Contains themes which may be upsetting to younger children.

Ingenious contemporary folk horror tale.
— The Scotsman ★★★★

100 years after the release of The Phantom of the Opera join us to celebrate the centenary of this great spectacle with Minima's "spine-tingling" live score.

Beneath the sewers of the Paris Opera House dwells a masked figure. He is the Phantom, a hideously disfigured composer whose dream is to turn chorus singer Christine into a diva. Lon Chaney, the “Man of a Thousand Faces”, dominates this classic adaptation of the 1910 novel. His ghastly make-up and outrageous performance made The Phantom of the Opera one of the great classics of American silent film.

This is the original film version of Phantom which inspired numerous remakes. It was a critical and commercial success upon release, as these press quotes from the time contest: an “ultra fantastic melodrama” (New York Times); “produced on a stupendous scale” (Moving Picture World); “probably the greatest inducement to nightmare that has yet been screened” (Variety)

Minima have specialised in live accompaniment to screenings of silent films since 2006. Their electrifying original score for The Phantom of the Opera captures the horror of the story, but also finds pathos, romance and humour. Drums, bass, guitar and cello strike up a thrilling relationship with the film, following the Phantom down into his subterranean nightmare world.
