SUNDAY BRUNCH… NEW VENUE!

Due to the popularity of the Festival Weekend Sunday Brunch, we have moved this event to the London Convention Centre. Our venue capacity is now in the range of 400 people.

This will enable us to sell more weekend passes, though there will still be a cap to ensure we are able to offer individual film tickets. However, individual brunch tickets will be readily available.

TICKETS

Tickets are no longer available through PayPal. Sunday film tickets will be available at the theatre.
Dance tickets are available from the Village Idiot or at the theatre.

There is a possibility that a few Friday film tickets will be available at the theatre this evening, so if you’re desperate be there for 6 p.m.

TRANS film & discussion

We are fortunate to be showing a work in progress-sneak preview of the documentary film TRANS on Sunday April 22nd… an up-close and personal journey into the transgender world through the memorable stories and the unusual lives of a remarkable cast of characters.

TRANS will be followed by a discussion led by a panel comprised of Kimberly Anne Smith, co-leader Steel Butterflies, Fallon Wilson, co-leader Steel Butterflies, and Michelle Boyce of SWAT (SouthWest Advocates for Trans).

Please remain in the theatre at the end of Sunday films to participate.
