About Colour Box: The Pagemaster

The Pagemaster tells the story of a real-life boy (Macauley Culkin) who retreats to a library only to find himself physically transformed into a cartoon, learning to overcome his fears as he meets characters from Alice In Wonderland, Moby Dick and Treasure Island.

The drop-in workshop begins at 10am in the Performance Studio and the relaxed/subtitled film screening begins at 11am in the Cinema.

Tickets are also available to see the film without the workshop.
