After two very successful events in Johannesburg and Cape Town TCM Pop Up Cinema, the new film screening concept and cinematic extravaganza, is making its way to the Eastern Cape and will be rocking Port Elizabeth on the 25th of August!
TCM Pop Up Cinema allows film-lovers to immerse themselves into the very heart and soul of a movie and has ignited a viewing revolution. The concept is travelling across South Africa throughout 2011 and, in partnership with Hennessey who are sponsoring the event, will bring a slice of 1970’s cool to Port Elizabeth’s hippest cats at a FREE, strictly limited, event hosted at a top secret location. The only way that lovers of cinema can secure an invite to this money-can’t-buy evening of molasses sweet soul and lose themselves in the magic of TCM Pop Up Cinema is by registering their interest at www.TCMAfrica.com/popupcinema and then by joining in the fun via TCM’s Twitter and Facebook pages for clues that will help you guess the movie that will be screened.
COME JOIN US FOR SOME GLITTERING GLAMOUR IN PE!
“The packed events we’ve held in Johannesburg and Cape Town have demonstrated to us that Pop Up Cinema is a cinematic event that has been long awaited in South Africa. We want to bring the romance and adventure back to the cinematic experience and create a setting that allows audiences not to merely view the movie but to become a part of the comedy, action, tears and laughter. We hope that TCM’s Pop Up Cinema will showcase a selection of all the great movies people can watch on TCM and inspire them to pick up their DSTV remote, sit back and enjoy at home as well,” said Alan Musa, VP and GM, Middle East, Africa and Pan Region for Turner Broadcasting Systems.
TCM Pop Up Cinema brings the audience to the forefront of the action. Flying monkeys, a terribly wicked witch and a real-life yellow-brick road popped up in Johannesburg whilst chorus girls, classic cars and rumours of a suited and booted Elvis popped up in Cape Town. Work out which film is being screened and maybe even dress for the occasion yourself; feel the funk, don some flares and embrace the sounds and soul of the seventies!
Food and drink are on sale throughout the evening encouraging an intimate film-loving crowd to make a night of it. Remember you must register online in advance to be in with a chance of securing a ticket to the main event at the Pop Up Cinema website: www.TCMAfrica.com/popupcinema.
