Spectacular stage productions to enjoy at Vue Edinburgh this spring

To celebrate World Theatre Day (27 March), Vue Edinburgh is highlighting upcoming theatre and opera productions showing on the big screen. Featuring shows from the Metropolitan Opera, the Royal Ballet & Opera and National Theatre Live, audiences can enjoy world-class stage productions from the comfort of their local Vue.  

The show begins today (24 March) with the Metropolitan’s Opera production of Tristan und Isolde, one of the most celebrated works in the operatic repertoire. Richard Wagner’s epic tale explores themes of longing, love and fate through the relationship of Irish princess Isolde and the knight Tristan.

This new rendition features acclaimed soprano Lise Davidsen in the title role alongside tenor Michael Spyres, bringing Wagner’s powerful and emotionally charged score to cinemas worldwide.  

From the Royal Ballet & Opera is another classic from Wagner, Siegfried. Screening on 31 March, follow the titular character as he navigates self-discovery, mythical creatures and long-hidden secrets.  

On 16 April, Arthur Miller’s powerful drama All My Sons arrives on the big screen via National Theatre Live.

Set in post-war America, the gripping play centres on a successful family business whose past decisions during wartime begin to resurface, forcing those involved to confront questions of responsibility, guilt and moral compromise.

Bryan Cranston and Marianne Jean-Baptiste feature in the five-star, triumphantly acclaimed production. 

For those looking for something more magical, on 21 April the Royal Ballet & Opera’s enchanting production of Mozart’s The Magic Flute promises a visually spectacular experience.

This beloved opera blends comedy, romance and fantasy as Prince Tamino embarks on a quest to rescue Princess Pamina, guided by the mysterious power of a magical flute and accompanied by the unforgettable bird-catcher Papageno. 

Rounding off the programme on 30 April is the dazzling musical favourite Funny Girl – The Musical. The beloved production tells the story of legendary performer Fanny Brice and her rise to fame, featuring iconic songs including “Don’t Rain on My Parade” and “People”, as it charts Brice’s journey from ambitious performer to Broadway star. 

General Manager at Vue in Edinburgh, said: “World Theatre Day is a celebration of the creativity, passion and artistry that make live performance so special.

“These screenings bring the magic of some of the world’s greatest stages directly to the big screen. From powerful operatic epics to unforgettable drama and musicals, we are proud to give theatre lovers a chance to experience incredible performances in a new way.”

There’s a film for all tastes this Mother’s Day weekend at Vue

From sci-fi and romance to classic releases and early previews, there’s something for everyone to enjoy at Vue Edinburgh this Mother’s Day weekend – whether you’re planning a family outing, a cinema trip with mum, or simply in search of a great film.  

For fans of romance, an adaptation of the best-selling book Reminders of Him will be playing over the weekend. The story follows Kenna, who after a perfect outing with her boyfriend, makes an unbearable mistake that sends her to prison. Seven years later, Kenna returns to her hometown, hoping to rebuild her life.   

Sci-fi lovers can enjoy a special early preview of Project Hail Mary, starring Ryan Gosling as a science teacher who wakes up on a spaceship light-years from home with no recollection of who he is or how he got there.

As his memory returns, he realises he must call on his scientific knowledge and unorthodox ideas to save everything on Earth from extinction. 

Audiences can also enjoy a very modern take on the first true sci-fi novel, with The Bride! It follows a lonely Frankenstein who travels to 1930s Chicago to ask groundbreaking scientist Dr Euphronious to create a companion for him. The two revive a murdered young woman and The Bride is born. 

For music fans, Baz Luhrmann’s EPiC: Elvis Presley blends restored concert footage from the King of Rock’s legendary 1970s Las Vegas residency with rare, never-before-seen clips and rediscovered audio of Presley recounting his own story. Also screening from Lurhmann is a re-release of The Great Gatsby led by Academy Award winner Leonardo DiCaprio in this adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s timeless tragedy.

For younger audiences and family trips, Hoppers follows an animal lover who uses technology to place her consciousness into a robotic beaver, uncovering mysteries within the animal world that are beyond anything they could have imagined. Also perfect for families is Angelica Huston’s unforgettable performance in the 1990 version of The Witches.

Set across dual timelines, psychological thriller Ina Pale View of Hills explores a Japanese widow’s memories spanning post-war Nagasaki in the 1950s and England during 1980s Cold War era, unravelling secrets that intertwine her past and present experiences across borders.  

Bringing some levity to the weekend, How to Make a Killing follows blue-collar Becket Redfellow – disowned at birth by his obscenely wealthy family – who will stop at nothing to reclaim his inheritance, no matter how many relatives stand in his way. 

Finally, for scream queens, the latest instalment in the long-running franchise Scream sees a new Ghostface arrive on the scene.  

General Manager at Vue in Edinburgh, said: “We have a fantastic selection of films for audiences to enjoy this weekend, with something to suit every taste. Mother’s Day is a great opportunity to spend quality time together, and a trip to the cinema is the perfect way to relax, share a story and make the day feel a little more special.”

Baz Luhrmann takes centre stage on the big screen at Vue Edinburgh

From Romeo + Juliet to Elvis, five films from legendary auteur Baz Luhrman are arriving at Vue Edinburgh this month.  

The season kicks off from 14 March with The Great Gatsby, starring an ensemble case – including Joel Edgerton, Carey Mulligan and Tobey Maguire – and led by Academy Award winner Leonardo DiCaprio in this adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s timeless tragedy.  

Celebrating its 30th anniversary this year, Luhrmann’s dazzling and unconventional adaptation of William Shakespeare’s Romeo + Juliet will be returning from 27 March. Starring a young DiCaprio in his first collaboration with the director, he plays opposite Claire Danes as the infamous pair of star-crossed lovers. 

This modern adaptation is a world away from its Elizabethan origins, taking place in the futuristic urban backdrop of Verona Beach, California.

Considered by many to be one of the greatest musical films of all time, the unforgettable Moulin Rouge! will be heading back to the big screen from 20 March. The jukebox musical stars Ewan McGregor as a crestfallen poet who falls for Sparkling Diamond of the cabaret, played by Nicole Kidman. 

Also starring Nicole Kidman, Australia will be screening from 20 April. It follows an estranged wife as she joins forces with a rugged local, played by Hugh Jackman, on a cattle drive across hundreds of miles of harsh terrain to save her ranch.

But when the pair finally reach the town of Darwin, they must contend with the same Japanese bombers that just rained death upon Pearl Harbor. 

In the biopic Elvis, Luhrmann explores the life and music of Elvis Presley through the prism of his complicated relationship with his enigmatic manager, Colonel Tom Parker. The film boasts stellar performances from Austin Butler and Tom Hanks, and is returning from 14 April.  

General Manager at Vue in Edinburgh, said: “After over three decades in the industry, Baz Luhrmann has proven himself as a true showman of cinema.

“Here at Vue, we pride ourselves on bringing the ultimate seat, screen and sound experience – what better way to enjoy these high-octane, visually opulent films.”

Roald Dahl’s beloved stories return to the big screen at Vue Edinburgh

A number of iconic film adaptations based on the work of children’s author Roald Dahl are returning to the big screen at Vue Edinburgh, offering families the perfect chance to relive their favourite stories the way they were meant to be seen.  

Marking its 30th anniversary this year, James & The Giant Peach kickstarts the season from 28 February. From the director behind classics such as The Nightmare Before Christmas and Coraline, this stylishly silly story follows an orphan who, tired of living with his two cruel aunts, befriends a group of anthropomorphic bugs who live inside a giant peach and embarks on a marvellous adventure to the city of New York.

Also marking 30 years since it first began entertaining families, Matilda is heading back to the big screen to cause more mischief and mayhem from 28 March. The film follows a gifted young girl forced to put up with her difficult home and school life, including crude parents and her evil principal, Mrs Trunchbull. But when Matilda discovers she has the power of telekinesis, she begins to fight back against the wicked adults around her, freeing her friends from their grown-up grievances.  

Another beloved adaptation returning to the big screen is the iconic Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory, featuring Gene Wilder as the titular chocolatier, who invites five children into his mysterious, mad factory of sweet delights. The classic will be returning from 7 March. 

Other firm favourites joining the Roald Dahl season at Vue include the stop motion creature crime caper Fantastic Mr Fox, Angelica Huston’s unforgettable performance in the 1990 version of The Witches, and director Steven Spielberg’s heartwarming adaptation of The BFG. 

General Manager at Vue in Edinburgh, said: “Author Roald Dahl is behind some of the most recognisable and beloved children’s tales, many of which have inspired incredible big screen adaptations. 

“To coincide with the 30th anniversary of two of these iconic films, we’re hugely excited to bring the very best of Dahl’s work back to the big screen for families and first-time viewers to enjoy.”
