This Saturday evening at 8pm join Kate Higham, for her talk 'Cinema in Hebden Bridge – A Short History' followed by the premiere of the Memories of the Picture House film (subtitled), a project of the Friends of the Picture House. The film interviews Picture House audience members and former staff from across the decades, showcasing stories spanning nearly 80 years, and ranging from hilarious anecdotes to deeply moving recollections.
