St Edmund's Festival presents ... A Moment for the Movies
St Edmund's Theatre, Canterbury, CT2 8HU
Tuesday 30th June 2026
This original production follows Raymond, the struggling owner of a traditional cinema, who is swept into the world of film when a faulty projector transports him into the golden age of movies. Trapped inside the screen, he journeys through iconic film genres — from silent film and jazz-age classics to westerns, war films and musicals — all brought to life through live performance.
Combining drama, music, orchestra and choir, the production showcases performers across the school in a vibrant, family-friendly celebration of storytelling, creativity and the enduring power of cinema.
The Festival bar will be open in the marquee from 6pm and during the interval.
Priority booking is available to parents of performers from 20th May - 1st June. The code will be sent via email on 20th May.
The A Moment for the Movies is kindly sponsored by Burgess Hodgson
