Classic and Lido Cinemas are enticing audiences to give their souls to the dance at a special event advance screening of the highly-anticipated Suspiria.
All ticket-holders will be greeted with a themed dessert on arrival. Then, following the film screening, there will be a complimentary cocktail for everyone to enjoy at the gothic dance party in the foyer afterwards, where Suspiria-inspired dance moves are highly encouraged.
A fresh interpretation of Dario Argento’s 1977 Technicolor horror masterpiece, 2018’s Suspiria was directed by Luca Guadagnino (Call Me By Your Name, A Bigger Splash), and stars Dakota Johnson, Tilda Swinton, Chloë Grace Moretz, and Mia Goth. The music for the film was composed by Radiohead frontman Thom Yorke.
SYNOPSIS: Young American dancer Susie Bannion (Dakota Johnson) arrives in 1970s Berlin to audition for the world-renowned Helena Markos Dance Company, stunning the troupe’s famed choreographer, Madame Blanc (Tilda Swinton), with her raw talent. When she vaults to the role of lead dancer, Olga, the previous lead, breaks down and accuses the company’s female directors of being witches. As rehearsals intensify for the final performance of the company’s signature piece, Susie and Madame Blanc grow strangely close, suggesting that Susie’s purpose in the company goes beyond merely dancing. Meanwhile, an inquisitive psychotherapist trying to uncover the company’s dark secrets enlists the help of another dancer, who probes the depths of the studio’s hidden chambers.
