To say that theatrical distribution is experiencing challenges at the moment is an understatement. Amid profligate budget spending, cinema audiences have apparently been declining, faced with an ongoing COVID pandemic, a cost of living crisis and impactful actors’ and writers’ strikes. Above all, streaming content has made devastating incursions to the public’s perception of movie content and the theatrical release window. But does all of this mean that we should permanently write off the big-screen experience?
Week one: Challenges to theatrical supremacy in the age of COVID-19
Week two: The rise of streaming
Week three: Recent big-screen success stories
Week four: Putting it in context: how the big screen has weathered similar challenges before
Tickets are £70 for the full four-week course (£65 concession / £60 Picturehouse Members).
