It's Christmas time and the Griswolds are preparing for a family seasonal celebration, but things never run smoothly for Clark, his wife Ellen and their two kids.

Before there was Bad Santa, the Griswolds were already besmirching the holiness of Christmas with general ill will and sarcasm. That’s not what they set out to do, of course. In fact, having survived both Wally World and Europe, Clark (funniest man alive Chevy Chase) and his family are now attempting to have a “good old-fashioned family Christmas.” What could go wrong?

Filmed live at the specially designed Starlight Auditorium at Troubadour Wembley Park Theatre, ANDREW LLOYD WEBBER'S STARLIGHT EXPRESS - LIVE ON STAGE will immerse audiences in a world of speed, song and storytelling as an incredible cast of 40 whizz across the screen, performing some of musical theatre’s most beloved songs.

As a child’s train set magically comes to life and the engines race to become the fastest in the world, Rusty the steam train has little hope of winning until he is inspired by the legend of the ‘Starlight Express’.

A show seen around the world by over 30 million people, and with music by Andrew Lloyd Webber and lyrics by Richard Stilgoe, ANDREW LLOYD WEBBER'S STARLIGHT EXPRESS - LIVE ON STAGE is an electrifying experience for all ages.

On a country road in Devon, intensive dairy farmer Derek Banbury is horrified at the “devastation” of  his neighbour’s once productive farm. Dubbed a “maverick rewilder” by the media, Derek Gow is an unrepentant ex-sheep farmer hellbent on turning his land into an oasis for nature.

Shot over three years the film charts the two Derek’s turbulent relationship, as tempers fray, wild animals run amok, and the land is radically transformed.

Made by award-winning director James Dawson, it’s a film about land use and farming told by farmers. Blunt, funny and heartwarming in equal measure.

PRESSURE is based on the acclaimed play, the true story of the 72 hours leading up to D-Day. The largest amphibious assault ever has been assembled and any delays risk German intelligence catching on. Britain's chief meteorological officer James Stagg (Andrew Scott) must convince the entire Allied operations led by American General ‘Ike’ Eisenhower (Brendan Fraser) to trust his unconventional methods and alter their deployment plans. The lives of millions and the fate of the war hangs in the balance of these few short days.

"This is a serious film in the best sense of the term, a thoughtful film about people facing the direst problems with honor, intelligence, and courage that goes beyond the physical to include fearlessness about pursuing the truth."

This smouldering chamber thriller from director Anton Corbijn (Control) imagines a strange confrontation between a literary agent and legendary author Patricia Highsmith, whose acclaimed, icily intelligent crime novels were the source material for such classic films as Hitchcock’s Strangers on a Train and The Talented Mr. Ripley. Adapted by Joanna Murray-Smith from her play Switzerland and starring Alden Ehrenreich (Fair Play), Olivia Cooke (Sound of Metal) and Oscar winner Helen Mirren, A Talent For Murder pits ruthless careerism against dark genius in a slippery battle of wills. 

It is 1995, and American author Highsmith (Mirren), now in her seventies and in poor health, has retired to the Swiss Alps, where she largely confines herself to her study, surrounded by her books, her cats, and her collection of antique weapons. Enter Edward Ridgeway (Ehrenreich), emissary for a New York publisher sent to persuade Highsmith to craft one last instalment in her bestselling series of mysteries featuring the murderous antihero, Tom Ripley. Irritated by this youthful, overly eager visitor, Highsmith refuses the offer — unless, that is, Ridgeway can dream up the perfect murder along with her. 

Highsmith was famously charismatic and problematic — and as wickedly manipulative as her most celebrated character. Mirren embodies the formidable scribe with seductive wit, while Ehrenreich infuses Ridgeway with enough duplicity to keep us unsure of his motives. With its brilliant twists and trenchant dialogue, A Talent for Murder is a deeply intriguing foray into the realm where history and myth become deliciously entangled.

A thrilling ghost story set in Dickens' London, following one man's supernatural journey to face his past, present and future as he fights for a second chance at redemption.

This Christmas, Johnny Depp is Ebenezer Scrooge. The classic Christmas tale. Told like never before. From Ti West, EBENEZER also stars Rupert Grint, Andrea Riseborough, Sam Claflin, Daisy Ridley, Arthur Conti, Ellie Bamber, Henry Lloyd-Hughes, Charlie Murphy, with Tramell Tillman and Ian McKellen.

Disney's Hexed casts a magical new spell over the big screen in a fantasy adventure from Walt Disney Animation Studios. Set in a vibrant world where magic is both feared and forbidden, the story follows a teenage girl who suddenly discovers she has inherited powerful and unpredictable magical abilities. When an ancient curse resurfaces and threatens her kingdom, she must learn to control her powers before the magic consuming her begins to change the world around her. Blending humour, adventure and heart, Hexed continues Disney's long tradition of fantasy storytelling that has captivated audiences for generations.

The film features a lively voice cast led by Zoey Deutch, Hailee Steinfeld, Rashida Jones, Stephen Fry and Tracey Ullman, bringing a colourful ensemble of characters to life. Visually the film leans into a bold new animation style inspired by hand-drawn fantasy artwork and magical storybook illustrations, giving the world a distinctive enchanted look. Following the success of recent Disney animated hits such as Encanto and Wish, Hexed promises a spellbinding mix of comedy, music and adventure as a young heroine learns that the very power that frightens her might also be the key to saving everyone she loves.

A young boy is at the age where he's beginning to doubt the existence of Santa Claus. However, one Christmas Eve he hears a thunderous noise outside and, on investigating, finds it's being made by a huge train - the Polar Express. A kindly conductor asks him aboard and soon he and some other children are on a rollercoaster ride north to see the big man himself. Director Robert Zemeckis honed the use of "motion capture" technology when filming The Polar Express, and the technique perfectly suits this charming, fantastical nature of a film about the magic of Christmas.

The Garfunkels are back at the Riverside!

After their sold out show in January 2026, The Garfunkels are super excited to be back for another show this December at the Riverside.

A bit about The Garfunkels:

“There was one small problem - neither of us wanted to be Paul Simon. To make it work, one of us was going to have to get a hair cut. And that simply wasn’t going to happen”

Not many 20 year old lads think of starting a Simon & Garfunkel tribute act - but Suffolk-based musicians Tom Mumford and Angelo Littler did exactly that.

The Garfunkels’ set is a celebration of Simon & Garfunkel’s  music and story. With rich harmonies and engaging storytelling, you can expect to hear the most iconic songs over the years - from the debut album Wednesday Morning 3AM’ to bestselling, award wining ‘Bridge Over Troubled Water’.

Facing Christmas 3,000 miles from his estranged wife and two children, New York policeman John McClane (Bruce Willis) flies to Los Angeles bearing presents and hoping to patch up his marriage.

Stylish and cool Hans Gruber (Alan Rickman) is in Los Angeles as well for the holiday season, but he's not there to give out presents. He's there to take: more than $600 million in negotiable bearer bonds from the multinational Nakatomi Corporation, where McClane's wife Holly (Bonnie Bedelia) is an executive.

When the takeover becomes hostile, it's up to John McClane to take on the terrorists with all the grit and determination he can muster--but not without a sense of humor.

Yippee-kye-aye!

Cloaked in darkness on the rooftops of Tel Aviv, Israeli journalist Yuval Abraham conducts shattering one-on-one interviews with Israeli soldiers and intelligence personnel.

This urgent piece of documentary investigation by Israeli filmmakers Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor, is a deep dive into the systems and technologies underpinning Israel’s bombing campaign in Gaza.

The title Naza refers to a military intelligence acronym used to indicate the number of civilians expected to be killed in an airstrike.

Following their Oscar-winning film No Other Land, Abraham and Szor turn their attention to how these systems of remote surveillance and mass killing operate, seeking to grasp the horrific scale of civilian deaths.

Both Israeli filmmakers have now been denounced as traitors in Israel, and the Israeli Prime Minister has personally threatened to revoke their citizenship. The film premiered (and won the Special Jury Prize) at the Venice Film Festival.
