The Greatest Showman is this year's smash hit movie musical. Based on the life of P.T. Barnum and starring Hugh Jackman and Zac Efron, the film's incredible score includes ‘This Is Me’, which has already won the Golden Globe for Best Original Song.
Following this, experience a true cinematic masterpiece back on the big screen, with a very special screening of Ridley Scott's Alien. Starring Sigourney Weaver in the career defining role of Ripley, Alien set the sci-fi benchmark and has inspired countless films since.
