Cinema City is steeped in heritage, both from a cultural point of view and from the historical angle of its setting.

The Country’s oldest independent art house cinema, Cinema City is housed within and on the site of the elegant and fascinating Suckling House and adjacent Stuart Hall in the historical heart of Norwich. Despite sympathetic renovation and restoration through the ages, properties were recorded on the site as early as the 13th Century.

An essential stamping ground for film buffs, Cinema City hosts a broad programme, ranging from the popular blockbuster to the lesser know independent movie. World cinema is given equal footing here.

Cinema City reopened after extensive refurbishment in late 2007. It now boasts 3 superior screens, state of the art sound equipment and digital projection facilities and new public areas including a bar and a top class restaurant. In addition, areas of Suckling House that were previously inaccessible to the general public are now open for the first time.

In addition to being an atmospheric and well-loved venue for watching films in Norwich, Cinema City offers exciting practical courses for schools and the general public, designed to stimulate and enhance appreciation of moving image culture in an informal, accessible style.

John Shuttleworth Hosts Evening at Cinema City to
Investigate ‘Is it Soft Down South?’

Monday 1st March, 8.30pm.

Self-styled comedian, organist and all-round eccentric John Shuttleworth is coming to Cinema City, Norwich, to host a question and answer session after the screening of his new film, ‘Southern Softies’.

Shuttleworth, AKA Graham Fellows, first came to prominence in 1978 with the unlikely punk-styled pop hit ‘Jilted John’ about man unlucky in love. He has since carved himself a highly successful career with his alter ego John Shuttleworth, a prematurely retired Sheffield security guard hell-bent on a new life as a singer-songwriter and with a strange penchant for slicked back hair and roll-neck sweaters.

‘Southern Softies’ follows John on his travels to the Channel Islands to discover if it’s ‘soft down south’. John’s neighbour, Ken Worthingon, films the trip on his camcorder, then later – when Ken gets fed up and decides to go sunbathing – a professional film crew takes over. Shuttleworth meets a lot of fascinating people along the way…and one or two boring ones as well! The question remains, are these people ‘Southern Softies’?

Tickets are on sale now. Prices: Adults £8.00, Members £6.00, Concessions £5.50, Concessionary Members £4.50. Book online at www.picturehouses.co.uk or by calling 0871 704 2053.
