The Dark CrystalPG
In the mystical world of Thra, young Gelfling Jen embarks on a quest to restore balance to their divided world by healing the powerful Dark Crystal. Along the way, he teams up with Kira and faces the evil Skeksis to fulfil the prophecy and save Thra from darkness. With its innovative puppetry, mythological themes, and emotional depth, Jim Henson’s fantasy has become a beloved family classic that has stood the test of time.
Reviews
‘The Dark Crystal has an ethereal alien quality to its startling visions, far removed from the Earth-bound contours of traditional fairy tales.’
★★★★
Ian Nathan, Empire Magazine
‘Although The Dark Crystal emerged from the darker side of his imagination, it’s still a mesmerising picture that will enchant older children and adults alike.’
★★★★
David Parkinson, Radio Times

Our beautiful art deco inspired auditorium can be found just off East Oxford's Cowley Road. We are open 7 days a week. We open the cinema and box office 30 minutes before the scheduled start time of each film, and the Box Office then closes 10 minutes after the film starts. We don’t show adverts, just a couple of trailers, so don't be late as the film itself starts very close to the advertised time!
