Get into the chocolate-eating spirit with this iconic and scrumdidilyumptious version of Roald Dahl’s much-loved classic, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

Prior to the screening, we are excited to announce that Yorkshire-based illustrator and comic Kristyna Baczynski will be running a drop-in workshop to create an amazing window illustration spanning our many, many windows.

Additionally, to help us launch our first LYFF screening this year, our friends from the Leeds Grand Youth Theatre will be joining us for a short introduction featuring a musical performance from their upcoming 12th full-scale musical, Roald Dahl’s Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, at City Varieties in July.
