After reuniting with Gwen Stacy, Brooklyn’s full-time, friendly neighbourhood Spider-Man is catapulted across the Multiverse, where he encounters a team of Spider-People charged with protecting its very existence. However, when the heroes clash on how to handle a new threat, Miles finds himself pitted against the other Spiders. He must soon redefine what it means to be a hero so he can save the people he loves most.
Asteroid City (12A)
Friday 30 June – Thursday 06 July
Wes Anderson returns with his 11th film. Fresh from Cannes Film Festival with yet another star-studded cast.
World-changing events spectacularly disrupt the itinerary of a Junior Stargazer/Space Cadet convention in an American desert town circa 1955.
The Flash (12A)
Friday 7 – Wednesday 12 July
Worlds collide when the Flash uses his superpowers to travel back in time to change the events of the past. However, when his attempt to save his family inadvertently alters the future, he becomes trapped in a reality in which General Zod has returned, threatening annihilation. With no other superheroes to turn to, the Flash looks to coax a very different Batman out of retirement and rescue an imprisoned Kryptonian — albeit not the one he’s looking for.

Studio Theatre
A Taking Flight Theatre/LAStheatre/Awen Cultural Trust coproduction The Department of Strange Events presents The Conjurer of Cwrtycadno
Saturday 8 July
Are you a brave and curious soul? Calm and collected under pressure? Experienced with handling fairies? Then The Department of Strange Events needs your help.
Whilst researching her ancestry in the National Library of Wales a young woman named Heledd Harries discovered a book by her Great Great Great Great Grandfather. A book of incantations! Heledd knew nothing of the magic in her blood or the trouble she was about to cause. Now we need your help to get hundreds of bewildered Tylwyth Teg home before Nos Calan Gaeaf.
The Conjurer of Cwrtycadno is an accessible adventure for families taking place in and around Pontio. Part treasure hunt, part theatre production, the show features integrated BSL and live audio description. Join us for this curious tale – a celebration of Welsh folklore, magic and the changing of the seasons.

Tuesdays, 1.30pm – 2.45pm

Dance for Parkinson’s classes are fun and informal.
Dance has been proven to develop confidence and strength, whilst temporarily relieving some participants of symptoms in everyday life. Classes are creative and promote feelings of freedom from the physical and social constraints of having Parkinson’s.
We are an Affiliated hub of English National Ballet’s Dance for Parkinson’s programme.
Classes are 90 minutes long, and all you’ll need is a chair.
English National Ballet’s Dance for Parkinson’s programme has been running since 2008. We are proud to be part of the Dance for PD membership, to support Dance for Parkinson’s Partnership and People Dancing and to have an affiliation with Parkinson’s UK. ENB’s national Dance for Parkinson’s programme enjoys close links with Parkinson’s UK and the European Parkinson’s Disease Association EPDA.
