Freeze Frame: Sing Street

Love is in the air this Valentine’s weekend so join us at the Drill Hall for this special Freeze Frame 10 year anniversary screening of Irish musical comedy drama about a schoolboy who forms a band in 1980’s Dublin.

Sing Street takes us back to 1980s Dublin where an economic recession forces Conor out of his comfortable private school and into survival mode at the inner-city public school where the kids are rough and the teachers are rougher. He finds a glimmer of hope in the mysterious Raphina, and with the aim of winning her heart he invites her to star in his band’s music videos. She agrees, and now Conor must deliver what he’s promised – calling himself “Cosmo” and immersing himself in the vibrant rock music trends of the ‘80s, he forms a band with a few lads, and the group pours their hearts into writing lyrics and shooting videos.

The screening will take place in our fully heated Rehearsal Studio, located just off the Main Hall and next to the Drill Hall Cafe.

** Why not make an evening of it and join us before the film for a bowl of Irish Beef / Vegetable & Guinness Stew with homemade soda bread? Food will be available from the Drill Hall Cafe from 6pm. Film + food, all for just £15 (+ fees). **
