The Assembly House Trust are working with the Norwich-based Reel Connections to revive one of Norwich’s long-lost cinemas for three special screenings this summer. The programme launches with the multi award-winning homage to the love of cinema Cinema Paradiso on Thursday 2 May. The short season continues in June with the return of one of the Noverre’s most fondly remembered Kid’s Club titles, Bugsy Malone and cult comedy classic Withnail & I.
