Chocolate Taste-Along: Amelie (2001)

Celebrate International Chocolate Day with us at the Hippodrome with our latest chocolate taste-along screening: the entrancing Amélie. Join us for this unique melt-in-the-mouth movie experience. The showing of Amélie will be paired with a bespoke tasting-box selection – each chocolate lovingly crafted to match the film’s most sensuous moments. Amélie (adorably played by Audrey Tautou) is a shy waitress beset with social anxieties who enjoys life's small pleasures from a safe distance… until a chance discovery sets her on a path to begin her life as a mender of broken hearts. A tremendously seductive modern fairytale, set against the beautiful landmarks and cafés of Paris – that most romantic and magical of cities. “A deeply lovely movie about the importance, and the rewards, of kindness.” The Times “Tautou is utterly captivating. Ditto the movie. There’s magic in it.” Rolling Stone “If Paris were destroyed tomorrow and the recipe for true love lost, archaeologists could reconstruct both to perfection from just a reel of ‘Amélie’, Jean-Pierre Jeunet's fresh, funny, exquisitely bittersweet tour de force.” Variety “You’ll never find peace of mind until you listen to your heart" and pre-order your chocolate box! The delicious handmade chocolates are made to order. We have pre-ordered 110 boxes. We can order more up to two weeks ahead of the screening.

NT Live: The Misanthrope (TBC) 26

Alice, a brilliant novelist, despises the hollow contemporary mantras of kindness and respect. But the bolder she becomes in speaking out, the more colleagues avoid her, and the more her personal relationships begin to fracture. As she challenges fashionable ideas and lends her voice to causes others are afraid to touch, she faces intense criticism and backlash. Alice will soon learn the price she must pay as an artist and as a woman for daring to speak her mind. Award-winner Sandra Oh (Killing Eve) is the Misanthrope in Martin Crimp’s (Cyrano de Bergerac) cutting new version of Molière’s dark comedy, directed by National Theatre Director Indhu Rubasingham (The Father and the Assassin).

Live Music

Evening Performance with Charlie Hopper-Williams

Award-winning pianist and a developer of the app Shazam, Charlie Hooper-Williams bridges the worlds of technology and music like few others can. In this captivating show, Hooper-Williams pairs his "vividly beautiful" "music to soothe the soul" with real-time visuals generated by Otto, his custom-built projection system. Each note played helps to build up striking imagery, creating what has been described as "film scoring inverted"—where visuals respond to music rather than the other way around. As the debut artist on Way Beyond Music, Hooper-Williams has been praised as "a new exciting voice on the contemporary scene" (Times Radio). His work has been featured at SXSW, the Edinburgh Fringe, and Glastonbury Festival, blending classical tradition with cutting-edge innovation to create performances that are "a realm of pure musical ecstasy" (Music 'n' Gear). Whether in a concert hall or a club, his shows immerse audiences in a world where technology isn't cold or distant but alive and collaborative. From his birthplace in the north woods of Minnesota through his time on the Chicago band scene, to his current base in the UK, Hooper-Williams draws on a diverse background to craft performances that are both deeply human and boldly modern. With his music reaching hundreds of thousands of listeners worldwide and garnering editorial support from Apple Music, Hooper-Williams continues to captivate audiences and critics alike.
