Family screening of the animated film 'Arthur Christmas' at Storyhouse Cinema, part of the Christmas at Storyhouse festive season.
Arthur Christmas is playing at Storyhouse Cinema on Saturday 12 and Sunday 13 December, both screenings starting at 10:30am. It's a family screening of the animated film, directed by Sarah Smith, and it runs for about 97 minutes. The cast is a proper ensemble: James McAvoy, Hugh Laurie, Bill Nighy, Jim Broadbent, Imelda Staunton, Eva Longoria and Michael Palin.
The story follows Santa's son, Arthur, who finds himself in a bit of a spot when a technical glitch misplaces a little girl's Christmas gift. He sets out to deliver it himself before it's too late. It's rated U, and the family screenings are recommended for children under 16, with adults only if they're accompanying a child. There are relaxed performances available too, if that's more your speed.
The screenings are part of Christmas at Storyhouse, the venue's festive season programme in the heart of Chester, just a short walk from the Christmas markets. Throughout December, they've got a wide range of family films, live events and seasonal activities on the go. The season also includes the Storyhouse Originals pantomime Rapunzel and a refreshed kitchen menu of local, seasonal food and festive drinks like mulled wine, mince pies and hot chocolates. Storyhouse stays open on Christmas Eve, New Year's Eve and New Year's Day, closing only on Christmas Day.
