At the Star and Shadow Cinema, we programme films, gigs, live art and exhibitions.

Anything that we believe that is new, different, underground, original, and, we hope, good.

We show films every Thursday and Sunday night, at 7.30pm.

Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays are open to any other kind of event, including films.

On Mondays and Tuesdays the cinema is closed, except for meetings.

The Star and Shadow Cinema is entirely run by volunteers, from film programming and projecting, to mopping, to gig organising and promotion, or the ever entertaining accountancy work.

In Byker/Ouseburn; in front of the Tanners Pub.  Metro: Manors; Buses: 12, 22, 39, 40, 62, 63, 106, 301, 302

WED 9 SEPT - SUN 3 OCT: NEW ART FILM SEASON: THE GLASS DELUSION

‘The Glass Delusion’ is an artists’ film programme organised in association with the National Glass Centre, to coincide with the exhibition of the same name (until the 3rd of October).

‘The Glass Delusion’ was the name given in the late Middle Ages and Baroque times to a form of depression. The syndrome evokes a psychological separation between reality and imagination. Sufferers were obsessive, compulsive, driven by irrational fears and envisioned themselves to be made of glass, hence delicate and vulnerable to scrutiny.

The events at the Star and Shadow feature artists who use film to investigate altered mental states. All three nights are absorbing experimental excursions into the potential of film for psychological exploration.

3 nights programmed:

Wed 29 Sept, 7.30pm: Film: Sally Golding and Kerry Laitala

Thu 30 Sept, 8pm: Film: Paul Sharits (1966 - 1976)

Sun 3 October, 7.30pm: Film: Invisible Adversaries (1976)
