Free Films For Pianists

Play our new piano before a film and stay on for the screening for free!

Fancy tinkering the ivories on the new piano at the Electric Palace before our screenings?

We're offering a free cinema ticket to anyone who would like to regale the audience with a 30-minute live piano recital before their chosen film screening.

It's a beautiful 1880 Chappell piano, shown here getting a fresh tuning, ready for its new audience when we reopen again very soon! Pictured above is the highly experienced local piano tuner, Rick Pentecost.

If the idea of playing pre screenings hits the right notes for you, please email us with 'Piano' in the subject line, noting the date and time of the screening you would wish to play for beforehand, in exchange for a free ticket to that film.

Please note:

This offer is designed so that the piano playing is background music for customers awaiting the start of the film/event, so we ask that the volume of the playing is fairly low to enable conversations to take place at the same time.

Please consider the choice of music you wish to play and if it is appropriate to the tone of the screening/event.
