Thirty years after Danny Boyle's Trainspotting hit screens, brooklynONE productions is showing it the way it deserves: big and loud on a theatre screen with a crowd. The free night opens with popcorn, themed drinks, trivia and encouraged '90s costumes before the film rolls. If you have only seen it on a laptop, this is your chance to hear that soundtrack in a room.
What to expect
Expect a lively pre-show with popcorn, trivia and themed drinks while people in '90s outfits trade favorite lines, then a full theatrical screening with an audience that knows the soundtrack by heart. Organisers promise a few extra surprises through the night.
