Dementia Friendly: Top Hat
U
Dir: Mark Sandrich
Cast: Fred Astaire, Ginger Rogers, Edward Everett Horton
99 mins
An undeniable classic, screwball musical comedy Top Hat stars legendary duo Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. Glamorous and enthralling, a Depression-era diversion beautifully scored by Irving Berlin, it is the most successful and beloved picture of the prolific Rogers and Astaire partnership which saw them produce an astonishing nine musicals between 1933 and 1939.
Our Dementia Friendly Screenings Dementia Friendly Screenings are open to all, but aim to make cinema more accessible to local dementia communities by providing a fun, friendly and inclusive experience for people living with dementia. The lights are left on low, there are no adverts or trailers and the audience is allowed to move around, or sing along to any musical numbers, should they wish to. Free tea, coffee and biscuits are served for half an hour before the film to give people the chance to meet and socialise with others, and to familiarise themselves with the cinema space and there is extra signage put up to help you navigate the building.Tickets are at the Off-Peak price of £7.50 per person, with a free place for accompanying carers.
