Films and Theatre

Our Monday Matinee film screenings are as much a social occasion for many as they are a chance to watch the film. Every matinee screening includes free tea or coffee and biscuits. We are also running Sunday Matinees, with a focus on historical and contemporary creative figures. 

Don't forget Friends of The Horsebridge get earlybird prices at all times and you can get up to 10 free film tickets a year.

Our performance space also hosts Theatre performances by visiting theatre groups. You can find out more about the performances in their listings.
