We'll be back in September (hopefully)

Normally at this time of year we'd be bringing our programme to a close and shutting down for the summer to allow everybody to enjoy the lighter evenings. We only got to show 10 films this year so we were considering carrying on with the club screenings when cinemas were allowed to open. However, you may have heard that the Alhambra is going to stay closed for a little bit longer. Rather excitingly they've made use of the closure to start work on adding a second screen under the balcony. There will be other changes such as a new bar and ticketing area and improved toilets, all without losing any of the current charm. Keep an eye on the Keswick Reminder or sign up for email updates to find out more about what's happening. 

So lets start looking forward to next season! We are hoping to open around our normal date - probably 12 September. We will be planning a whole new season  maybe we can fill the Alhambra again after all this time? More details will follow as we know more - whether Covid-19 is beaten enough for full audiences or if we still have to have social distancing, and we are looking forward to reinstating the brochure and membership again with all its benefits - cheaper seats, season tickets. It will be good to be back and see you all again!
