Things
Theatrical @ Seven
High above a jungle
in Nepal, pilgrims make an ancient journey by cable car to worship at
Manakamana Temple. Tonight, Wednesday
16 September, 8pm, as part of Scalarama, a nationwide
celebration of cinema, Seven is showing Manakamana. A
camera in the cable car, observes a series of very different passengers
in real time on their journey up the mountainside with an extraordinary
vista from the windows. It is also now a haunting reminder of the recent
destruction of parts of Nepal after two huge earthquakes. A Pay As You Feel event.
On Thursday 17
September, 7.30pm, is Page to Stage – An
Evening of New Writing. Five sharp, thought provoking
pieces by writers from across the Yorkshire region are performed
script in hand, giving writers the opportunity to see their work start to
come to life. The performances are followed by a discussion between
audience, writers, actor and directors enabling the writer to go away and
develop their work further. £5.
On Friday 18 December,
7.30pm, Poppyseed Productions
presents Mrs Klein. Nicholas Wright’s engaging drama
centres on the real-life figure of Melanie Klein, one of the pioneers of
child psychology in this country. The action of the play takes place in
Klein’s home in London in 1934 over the course of one evening and the
following day, shortly after Klein’s son has been reported killed in a
climbing accident. £8/£6

Seven Jazz is now back in its stride with Sunday Jazz Unplugged on

On Monday 21
September, 8pm, the Screen Seven movie is Boyhood
from Director, Richard Linklater, of Before Sunrise fame. Filmed over 12
years with the same cast, Boyhood is a groundbreaking story of growing up
as seen through the eyes of a child named Mason, who literally grows up
on screen before our eyes. Starring Ethan Hawke and Patricia Arquette as
Mason's parents and newcomer Lorelei Linklater as his sister, Boyhood is
a sprawling investigation of the human condition. Fabulous film. £6 / £5 conc.

of the Ripper emerges. £10
