Want to try your hand at running a cinema? Come along to one of our regular screenings (yes, the ones listed below) about 45 minutes before the times listed below, and head into the Concert Hall - we'll be there, just come and say hi!

Powered by sun and earth, designed by the greatest architectural visionary of the new millennium, Elysium is a self contained world. A world of commerce, cuisine and entertainment, featuring restaurants, swimming pools, libraries, cinemas, even a research hospital. It is not just the tallest and most technologically advanced work of modern architecture, but one that embodies the world's highest aspirations. Dr. Robert Laing, a new arrival, settles in and adjusts to this hermetic life. But before long he becomes aware of something unsettling in the building. In an escalating atmosphere of unrest the residents break into tribal factions. Laing watches in horror as the myth of a utopian society is shattered. -- Zootropolis: http://www.imperialcinema.co.uk/films/zootropolis/ Tuesday 7th June @ 18:30 Friday 10th June @ 18:30 £3 with Discount Pass [see below for link!] / £4 without In the animal city of Zootopia, a fast-talking fox who's trying to make it big goes on the run when he's framed for a crime he didn't commit. Zootopia's top cop, a self-righteous rabbit, is hot on his tail, but when both become targets of a conspiracy, they're forced to team up and discover even natural enemies can become best friends. -- National Theatre Live: The Audience: http://www.imperialcinema.co.uk/films/national-theatre-live-the-audience/ Thursday 9th June @ 19:00 £5 Concessions / £10 Adult For sixty years Elizabeth II has met each of her twelve Prime Ministers in a weekly audience at Buckingham Palace – a meeting like no other in British public life – it is private. Both parties have an unspoken agreement never to repeat what is said. Not even to their spouses. The Audience breaks this contract of silence – and imagines a series of pivotal meetings between the Downing Street incumbents and their Queen. From Churchill to Cameron, each Prime Minister has used these private conversations as a sounding board and a confessional – sometimes intimate, sometimes explosive. -- Eddie the Eagle: http://www.imperialcinema.co.uk/films/eddie-the-eagle/ Tuesday 14th June @ 18:30 Thursday 16th June @ 18:30 £3 with Discount Pass [see below for link!] / £4 without Inspired by true events, Eddie the Eagle is a feel-good story about Michael "Eddie" Edwards (Taron Egerton), an unlikely but courageous British ski-jumper who never stopped believing in himself - even as an entire nation was counting him out. With the help of a rebellious and charismatic coach (played by Hugh Jackman), Eddie takes on the establishment and wins the hearts of sports fans around the world by making an improbable and historic showing at the 1988 Calgary Winter Olympics. -- Ticket Pricing Single Film: £3 with Discount Pass / £4 without Double Bill: £5 with Discount Pass / £7 without Season Tickets: £15 - Buy now at https://www.imperialcollegeunion.org/shop/club-society-project-products/cine...
