As part of our partnership with the Forum Library's Creative Space, this edition of the Podcast welcomes Stephen Evans from Block Cinema to chat about the project which aims to bring social cinema and a "proper movie atmosphere" to Wythenshawe.

Block have moved into the Creative Space late in 2024 after establishing in Northenden in 2019. They have gone from strength to strength, offering a variety of films across various genre's that are screened at a reasonable, fair and affordable price.

It has long been said that a cinema in the area is needed - Block are trying their hardest to do just that! Stephen chatted to me about the project, how films are chosen, his own passion for film and getting this project off the ground, and why he is a huge advocate for social cinema and creating a "togetherness" when watching movies on a big screen.

To view listings or suggest a film you'd like to see screen, as well as all upcoming showings, check out their website www.blockcinema.org. You can also find Block Cinema on Facebook (Search Block Cinema) Instagram - @cinematheblock or on Twitter/X @Blockcinema.
