CINEMA lovers can catch this year’s most acclaimed films on the big screen at an affordable rate with Taunton Brewhouse’s awards season offering.
From February to April, the venue is screening six Oscar-nominated films as part of its growing cinema programme.
Audiences can enjoy evening screenings of Hollywood big-hitters Tár, The Whale, The Fabelmans, Women Talking, Aftersun, and All Quiet on the Western Front and get up to 40 per cent off usual full ticket price.
You can keep a record of the films you see by picking up an awards season passport from the Taunton Brewhouse box office and collecting a stamp on each visit. People who book all six awards season screenings will receive a free cinema bundle.
Will Bourdillon, Brewhouse artistic programmes manager, said: "Our awards season programme is a chance to come together with other members of the community and share the wonderful experience of seeing a fantastic film on the big screen."
