While we love a good blockbuster or, every now and then, to jump out of our skin with the latest horror release, it’s not just about movies at Cineworld. Our Event Cinema screenings put you right in the front row at the theatre, whether a play or musical, or at the barrier of an electric rock concert. There's also an opportunity to take pause with more mellow classical events from world famous composers and musicians.
Coming up, we've got incredible plays straight from National Theatre, as well as musicals, including the celebration of a decade since Lin-Manuel Miranda stunned the stage with his biography of one of America's founding fathers told entirely through rap and song. Yes, we're talking about seeing Hamilton on the big screen at Cineworld. Find our full upcoming calendar for Event Cinema below.
Hamilton (10th Anniversary) (26th September)
Can you believe it's been ten years since Lin-Manuel Miranda's hip-hop Broadway musical charting founding father Alexander Hamilton's life and his involvement in the American Revolution is turning a decade old? Well, this is your shot to see it on the big screen and skip out on the heady West End prices. The live filming is taken straight from the Richard Rogers Theatre on Broadway. This means you get to experience the likes of "The Room Where It Happened", "Satisfied", and "You'll Be Back" performed by the original cast, including Jonathan Groff, Lin-Manuel Miranada himself, Anthony Ramos, Daveed Diggs, Chris Jackson, Leslie Odom Jr., Renée Elise Goldsberry, and Emmy Raver-Lampman.

John Cleese Packs It In (13th November)
Beloved comedian John Cleese will be arriving at Cineworld in November in John Cleese Packs It In, a feature length film that documents what could be his final ever tour. 85 years old, carrying heavy cargo in the way of his hip and knee replacements and pacemaker, the tour takes him to 16 cities across five different countries for 23 shows. “John Cleese Packs It In is a wry, behind-the-scenes portrait of a comedy legend on the road, battling various ailments, chaotic travel, and his own stubborn refusal to stop.”
