Chinatown & the CBD
If your idea of a good night involves sinking into a sofa and watching classic flicks, make some time for Screening Room. Expect anything from Mamma Mia to Sex, Lies and Videotape, projected onto a screen. Films are screened twice a day Monday to Thursday and once on Friday and Saturday. Bookings can be made via the website.
Once the credits roll the theatre turns into a sultry bar, so you don't even have to move for post-movie drinks.
