Event description: This showing will have subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing.

About the film: Oscar winners Colin Firth (The King’s Speech), Rachel Weisz (The Constant Gardener) and James Marsh (Man on Wire, The Theory of Everything) team up for The Mercy, a maritime biopic based on the haunting true story of British businessman and amateur sailor Donald Crowhurst.

1968: Crowhurst (Firth) enters the Sunday Times Golden Globe Race, the first non-stop, single-handed, round-the-world yacht race. Hoping to publicise a new navigation device he’s created, he also needs the cash prize to salve his ailing business. So, leaving his wife Clare (Rachel Weisz) and children behind, he takes to his untested trimaran and sets off on a mission to circumnavigate the globe. But his inexperience and the intense loneliness of the experience make for disastrous and dramatic struggles on the high seas, and press him to consider falsifying his progress; while back in England, his family eagerly awaits his return.

Marsh’s biopic promises complex, expressive performances from Firth and Weisz, ably supported by the likes of Ken Stott and David Thewlis. It’s a tale of ambition, adventure, madness and tragedy elucidating the life of a man who remains a quixotic and mysterious figure in British history – his deepest motivations still unknown.

Doors Open at 7:00 pm Film Starts at 7:30 pm
Ticket Price: £5.00 – £7.00

Carmen (With Subtitles)

End Date:
6th March 2018

Start Time:
1845

End Time:

Event title: Carmen (With Subtitles)
Venue: Wem Town Hall, High Street, Wem, Shropshire, SY4 5DG
Weblink: www.wemtownhall.co.uk
Name: Royal Opera House
Email: info@wemtownhall.co.uk
Telephone: 01939 238 279
Event description: The Royal Opera. Opera in Four Acts.

CARMEN is the best-known work by French composer Georges Bizet, and one of the most famous operas in the entire art form – numbers such as the Habanera and the Toreador Song have permeated the popular consciousness as little else has. The opera’s heady combination of passion, sensuality and violence initially proved too much for the stage, and it was a critical failure on its 1875 premiere. Bizet died shortly after, and never learned of the spectacular success his Carmen would achieve: the opera has been performed more than five hundred times at Covent Garden alone.

This ever-popular opera is given a fresh point of view in Barrie Kosky’s highly physical production, originally created for Frankfurt Opera. The Australian director is one of the world’s most sought-after opera directors, whose Royal Opera debut with Shostakovich’s The Nose in 2016 was greeted with delight. For CARMEN, he has devised a far-from-traditional version, incorporating music written by Bizet for the score but not usually heard, and giving a new voice to the opera’s endlessly fascinating central character.

Music: Georges Bizet. Directed by Barrie Kosky and Conducted by Jakub Hrusa
Sung in French with English subtitles
