May the Fourth be with you to celebrate Star Wars day

For the venue in Kirkcaldy’s Bennochy Road will acknowledge the traditional Star Wars fan day ‘May the 4th’ with a screening of The Last Jedi as the venue’s spring film programme continues.

Young Padawans – and their parents – are encouraged to attend in their Jedi robes (or dressing gowns) to watch the latest instalment of the sci-fi franchise as if they were on holiday in Tatooine.

And the local venue is also giving Fifers the chance to enjoy a slew of family blockbusters, independent films, National Theatre live events and an Oscar season recap with their latest movie programme.

Verdi Clark, interim programming manager for OnFife who run the Adam Smith Theatre, said: “We can’t wait to celebrate Star Wars day with Luke Skywalker’s return and an opportunity to dress up.

“Unless it’s a superhero blockbuster, critically acclaimed films are often in and out of multiplex cinemas quicker than you can say cut!

“We wanted to give fans another opportunity to see these movies in all their glory.

“We’re especially pleased to secure screenings of The Greatest Showman, Three Billboards, The Post and Coco – all of which deservedly cleaned up during awards season.

“We’ve done what we can to cater to all tastes – we are confident there’s something for the whole household to enjoy in our new film programme.”
