Pride & Prejudice Premiere

You could be mingling with the stars next Wednesday (7th September) evening, as we've got two pairs of tickets to give away for the Manchester premiere of Pride & Prejudice at The Filmworks.

Manchester will be playing host to an exclusive screening of Pride and Prejudice with all proceeds of the event being donated to Christies cancer charity.

The People of Manchester will be able to get sneak preview of this much-anticipated remake as well as have the unique opportunity of mingling with the film's stars including Matthew Macfadyen – Darcy (Spooks, In My Fathers Den), Jena Malone – Lydia Bennet (Donnie Darko, Cold Mountain, Saved!) and director Joe Wright.

Duncan Kerr, General Manager at the filmworks comments: “We are honoured and excited about hosting the regional premiere of Pride & Prejudice at the filmorks, especially as the stars from the movie are coming too!“We will be putting on a glamorous show, complete with red carpet and VIP after show party. But more importantly we hope to raise lots of cash for Manchester’s local charity, Christies. All ticket sales will go to the Charity as well as any money donated on the night.”

Jane Austen's classic novel will hit the silver screen across the UK from 16th September starring Keira Knightly and follows the adventures of the five sisters, and their buoyant attempts to find husbands. But once Lizzie meets up with the handsome Mr. Darcy, what could seem like a match made in heaven quickly becomes one of the most classic battles of the sexes.

All proceeds from the evening will be going to Christie's, who raises funds for the Christie Hospital - the largest single-site cancer treatment centre in Europe. www.christies.org
