* The New Dot revival team discuss the return of Llangollen's community cinema.
The team of enthusiasts behind a revival of the town's own community cinema have sent llanblogger this update on their progress ...
"You may have heard a few whispers around town that New Dot Cinema is opening its doors again. Meetings have been taking place at Llangollen Town Hall to plan the return of the popular community cinema, which will offer a familiar and comfortable atmosphere, exciting cinematic experiences and maybe even some surprises.
"The reinvigorated interest in New Dot Cinema has attracted the attention of many locals who are keen to volunteer and who bring their different experiences of films, web design and knowledge of events to the table.
"They are discussing creative and engaging ways to engage the community and breathe life back into the cinema. If you’re interested in joining us, we would love to discuss your experiences and any help that you could offer New Dot Cinema. Please email newdotcineam@gmail.com to find out more. We would love to discuss your interests and any ways in which you could help out with the cinema.
"We are also in the process of choosing a variety of films that we hope will resonate with the community. There are lots of exciting events happening this summer in Llangollen and the New Dot Cinema team are ready to join in the mix, with their first film screening being Friday 25th July – keep your eyes peeled as we will start to share clues about the first film soon.
"The relaunch of New Dot has been driven by cinema enthusiast and local resident Olivia Brown, aged 23, who studied Film and Theatre Makeup Artistry in Coleg Cambria. She said: “I wanted to see the return of New Dot Cinema to Llangollen, so that I and others, could enjoy watching movies on the big screen, with friends and family, within walking distance of home.”
Heulwen Wright, Deputy Town Clerk, said: “Llangollen Town Council is delighted to see New Dot Cinema returning to the Town Hall. The previous screenings were highly atmospheric and having the big screen and technology that New Dot and Llangollen Town Council have invested in make the venue an ideal location for a Community Cinema. Its return will be wonderful for the Llangollen Community and visitors alike.”
