Dir: Wes Anderson 2023 | 139 mins
A fictional American desert town circa 1955.
A Junior Stargazer/ Space Cadet convention is organised to bring together students and parents from across the country for fellowship and scholarly competition.
But it is spectacularly disrupted by world-changing events.
With an all star cast including Jason Schwartzman, Scarlett Johansson, Tom Hanks, Tilda Swinton and Adrien Brody.
'In its own offbeat way, Asteroid City is an Anderson patchwork of Cold War paranoia and American family values in all their often hypocritical glory. It is every bit as arch as his best work, while still managing to tug hard on the heartstrings.' ★★★★★ The Independent
Wes Anderson returns with one of his most dazzling, rich and playfully self-reflexive films to date, brought to eye-popping life by an all-timer ensemble.' ★★★★★ Little White Lies
'Asteroid City’s eccentricity, its elegance, its gaiety, and its sheer profusion of detail within the tableau frame make it such a pleasure. So, too, does its dapper styling of classic American pop culture.' ★★★★ The Guardian
'It is occasionally a bit unfocused, and always a bit indulgent. If you don’t like The Wes Anderson Film, you won’t like this.' ★★★★ Empire
'This is Anderson filtered through the lens of David Lynch minus the horror, or Charlie Kaufman with better tailoring.' ★★★★ The Times
'Asteroid City reminds you that Anderson remains what he’s always been, despite what the AI bros might have you believe: completely inimitable.' ★★★★ Daily Telegraph
'Though it seems as light as a soufflé, this is more substantial fare than Anderson has been dishing out recently. It merits second, and possibly third, helpings.' ★★★★ London Evening Standard
'Wes Anderson’s ’50s quarantine tale plays like the American auteur’s whimsical, surrealist answer to The Twilight Zone relocated to the dusty desert of the old West.' ★★★★ Time Out

Have you ever wondered what your baby is thinking or feeling? Would it help if they could communicate those thoughts and feelings to you?
Sign & Rhyme teaches parents/carers and their little ones, simple sign language that enables them to communicate before speech takes over. Just like waving and clapping, your baby can learn to tell you when they’re hungry, in pain or just that they’ve seen a dog! This is empowering to them and hugely rewarding for you! In most cases babies who sign learn to talk sooner than their non-signing peers.
Signs are used in class, like actions, to accompany songs and nursery rhymes and with an array of props, puppets, instruments and the use of disco lights, bubbles and parachutes to enhance the sensory experience and make learning more fun.

Singing is a great way to relieve stress and promote well-being.
Meet new people and take some time for you in this new acappella choir for mums, dads, grandparents, carers and their babies!
It is a baby friendly class, created especially so you can bring the baby you care for. Grown ups are in a semi circle (with room for your buggy next to you) and babies can sit, crawl or play on the blanket in front of you.
These uplifting classes are led by conductor/composer (and mum) Marta Radwan. There's no auditions, no singing experience is needed and you don't need to have a 'good voice' - just an openness to have a go! You'll be sure to know the songs and there will even be some which include your little one.

Dir: Maryam Keshavarz 2023 | 107 mins
Coming from two countries at odds with each other, Iranian-American Leila strives to find balance and embrace her opposing cultures.
When her family reunites in New York City for her father’s heart transplant, Leila navigates her relationships from arms length in an effort to keep her 'real' life separate from her family life. However, when her secret is unceremoniously revealed, so are the distinct parallels between her life and that of her mother Shireen.
An honest portrayal of a woman who remains unapologetically herself, blended seamlessly into a heartfelt story about family, belonging - and the undeniable influence of pop music.
Winning both the Audience Award and the Best Screenplay Award at this years Sundance Film Festival, writer-director-producer Maryam Keshavarz delivers a compelling, intelligent and timely story of both the Iranian, and the Iranian-American, experience.

Macbeth is coming. A couple corrupted by their relentless lust for power have blood on their hands.
Witness the gripping tale of greed, murder, deception, and superstition in cinemas for a limited time only. Once you cross the line, you can never turn back.
