Bonington Theatre reopens its doors!
With lockdown being wound down, independent Midlands cinemas are beginning to open up again with one of the first being the Bonington Theatre in Arnold, Nottinghamshire.
Opening on July 4th, the screenings take place with a reduced capacity of 24 and there are plenty of safety measures in place. These include a one-way system, and additional signage to the bar area and guidance to enable social distancing.
For more information read the full health and safety guidance here. http://www.boningtontheatre.co.uk/safety
In terms of programme, they are mainly screenings films that were due to be shown before having to close for lockdown.
But Theatre Duty Manager Jeremy Arblaster is more than happy to announce that this month’s films include plenty of showings of Military Wives, as well as Uncut Gems, Sonic the Hedgehog.
In addition to those they will also be screenings of Trolls, Radioactive and the new title Never Rarely Sometimes Always. Full details about what’s programmed can be found here: http://www.boningtontheatre.co.uk/whatson

The Bonington Theatre is owned and managed by Gedling Borough Council.
Molina is a new sci-fi drama short from Leicester filmmaker Richard Chambers which explores the ramifications of mind-altering technology amid tense human relationships.
St. Patrick’s Day Massacre is the latest b-movie horror from Midlands director Steve Lawson who once again delves into the past to provide new spins on established stories and lore. And this time he uses St. Patrick’s Day as a jumping off point to create a tale of historic horror encroaching on the modern day.
Leicester Square didn’t host one particular UK premiere back in the 90s - but the city of Leicester in the Midlands sure as hell did. Holy cinema, Batman!
I’ve mentioned this before in reviews for Midlands Movies; reviewing low budget, independently made films requires a change in mindset. There’s a level of compromise, with allowances made for the odd rough-around-the-edges performance or some shaky effects work.
