Forest Row Film Society

Cats Protection is hosting The Grease Experience on Saturday 22 August at the National Cat Centre in Chelwood Gate, RH17 7TT.  This will be a drive-in movie screening of the John Travolta/Olivia Newton-John classic.  There will also be custom cars, popcorn, hotdogs, burgers and Pink Ladies, as well as a competition for the best dressed ‘Danny’ and ‘Sandy’.

Gates open at 8pm, and the film will start about 9pm.

Tickets are on sale now at £20 per car. You are advised to book your tickets in advance by contacting Admin Reception (01825 741 900)  or events@cats.org.uk. Tickets available on the gate subject to availability. A poster and more information are also available.

A working FM radio will be required in your vehicle, else you won’t be able to hear the soundtrack.

Cat’s Protection also have another event coming up:

• Saturday 19 September An evening of Swing Music: Take in the sounds of the nine-piece ConChord Big Band as they play classic swing pieces by the likes of Glenn Miller, Frank Sinatra, Bobby Darin and Ella Fitzgerald.  Tickets are £20 and include a fish and chip supper (vegetarian option available) and a cash bar.

The festival in Forest Row will again take place at the beginning of October. Most of the activity will be at the weekend (3rd-4th), with the ninth annual bike ride on the Saturday. There will be a lull in the proceedings in the afternoon when we will show Buster Keaton’s marvellous Sherlock Jr. It’s the story of a film projectionist who imagines himself to be a great detective, with lots of great visual gags, as you’d expect.

Our screenings of silent films with live music have always been a big hit in the past and we have always had a full house. Make sure it’s in your diary.
