u3a and Core Theatre Launch Classic Film Club


​Andy Cooper, a member and former chair of Cheswick Green u3a, has arranged with the Core theatre in Solihull to launch a classic film club.  Each film will be introduced from the stage by Andy.
This is really exciting as these classic films look great on a full-sized screen.  The first film will be Casablanca on 8th Feb., followed on 8th March by Now Voyager.
Andy has negotiated a discounted price of £5.00 for u3a members.  Bookings can be made now via their website.  To obtain the discount you need to book by 'Section' (not 'Seat Map') on their booking page.
