City centre cinema disappears Into The Woods
What was once a state-of-the-art cinema has been transformed into a woodland glen as if in a fairy tale.
Into The Woods (PG)
City Screen, Coney Street, York
From Fri Jan 9 at 5.45pm
£10 for adults
City Screen off Coney Street is bedecked with boughs of ivy and is home to a mysterious creature sipping a cup of beautifully decorated coffee.
Spookily the transformation has only occurred as the cinema prepares to show Into The Woods, Stephen Sondheim’s musical take on legendary fairy tales.
– Dave Taylor, City Screen marketing manager
Keeping with the theme, the cinema’s café-bar has field mushroom soup and wild boar sausages with mustard mash and gravy, and Black Forest gateau on the menu.
Meanwhile the Yorkshire Wildlife Trust has provided a woodland wildlife colouring competition for Saturday’s Kids’ Club.
And Dr Sketchy’s returns to The Basement of City Screen on Thursday, February 5 with a mix of eccentric characters to sketch based on Alice In Wonderland.
