Join a weekly online audience for a stage-adjacent movie. Theatre and its audiences have always been there for me, even in the toughest times, and they’re still here. For you too, if you like.
Coming up on Lockdown Theatre Club
Tuesday 7 July at 8pm
Hamilton
A return to the room where it happened: Lin-Manuel Miranda leads the original Broadway cast of his landmark musical. Available on Disney Plus.
After 17 weeks, this will be the last Lockdown Theatre Club, at least for a while. Thanks so much to everyone who has watched along.
Lockdown Theatre Club FAQ
What
Lockdown Theatre Club began as theatres were going dark and we began self-isolating. Every week, I choose a stage-adjacent movie and live tweet it, inviting people to join me. Everyone is welcome – theatre fans, newcomers, artists and fellow nerds. No expertise, no prior knowledge, no pressure. We can natter, discuss, advocate with passion and disagree with love. Just like we always do.
When
Every Tuesday evening at 8pm (UK time).
How
We find the movie on a major streaming service, and at 8pm everyone presses play and watches together. You can tweet along (#LockdownTheatreClub) or just enjoy the film knowing we’re all part of an audience together.
Questions
Anything you need to know, or to recommend a movie: please comment under this post, or find me on Twitter @mrdavidjays or via #LockdownTheatreClub.
