If you're not too Byrne'd out from discovering who is the sky, come and join us on the dancefloor!
A24’s 4K rerelease of Stop Making Sense showcases a crisp restoration of the iconic Talking Heads concert film, directed by Jonathan Demme. FAIRFIELD SOCIAL CLUB provides the dancefloor. Get dressed up so nice as you’re encouraged to get on the floor and make flippy floppy to all of Talking Heads’ and Tom Tom Club’s hits as the film plays.
The film will be followed by a raffle and an hour of new wave, art rock and postpunk 80s tunes with visuals mixed by Obscure Film, so hold tight, wait ‘til the party’s over.
A once in a lifetime experience for a first time viewer or a fifty time viewer who wants to see the film in a new way. Here’s your ticket, pack your bags!
All ticket purchases receive one free raffle entry. Additional tickets can be purchased on the day for £1 per ticket, £5 for three tickets, £8 for 8 tickets.
