Starring Hamptons International Film Festival award winner Danielle Macdonald, 4x BAFTA winner Joanna Lumley, & Flaiano Film Festival award winner Gary Lewis!

“Macdonald is incredibly appealing, equally vulnerable and strong, and her acting during her performances sets a standard to which all opera singers should aspire…Mix in some lovely location shooting and amusing competition scenes, and whether or not you’re an opera fan, you might find yourself falling for Falling for Figaro.” (Alliance of Women Film Journalists)

“This delightful movie has all the ingredients needed to make a delicious romantic comedy. Falling for Figaro is uplifting and joyful, tugging on the heart strings just enough, while throwing in some mild jeopardy to keep us hooked. Stunning Scottish scenery, a stirring opera soundtrack, and a warm, funny script set the tone for this gently inspiring story. Macdonald is perfectly cast as Millie, balancing drive and determination with positivity and empathy, while Skinner is delightful as Max” (Common Sense Media)

*The management kindly asks for all patrons to arrive 20-30 minutes before the movie starts. Since our space and seating capacity is limited, early arrival will help prevent last-minute overcrowding and give patrons enough room for proper physical distancing. We appreciate your cooperation.
