Membership

2020-21 and Coronavirus

October 2020: We are sorry to say that we have decided that it is not possible to put together a programme for what should have been the 2020-21 season. The Marine Theatre is closed indefinitely; they plan to reopen when they can, but the timing and the social distancing conditions are unknown. We need to book films for the programme weeks or months ahead, and many of our members are in the higher-risk groups.

We expect to plan the 2021-22 season, starting the selection process in the Spring of 2021, with a view to resuming normal service in September. ​

At present, therefore, we shall not be sending out the usual subscription invitations. Those who have been members in the recent past will receive  renewal letters next year, when we know how things stand. Potential new members are always welcome if we can accommodate them, and can get in touch using the enquiry form at the bottom of this page.

​We are all really sad that we can't continue as normal just now. Please keep an eye on Chairman's Corner for a weekly update on Freeview films!

Subscriptions

Per season, Adults £27.50 or £50 for a couple. Senior Citizens £22. Students and unemployed £12.


​Practical Arrangements

Each season runs from September to the following March and the films are shown fortnightly early on Sunday evenings.

​Since the loss of our much loved Regent Cinema we have operated at the Marine Theatre in Lyme Regis. We are delighted to be supporting them! We provided a new projector and screen at the Theatre, which are also in use for commercial film screenings.  Our thanks to Cinema for All for a grant to help with the new equipment.

The theatre holds 220 people (as against 300 at the Regent). This sets the limit to our membership - this and any social distancing requirements which may need to be applied, which would reduce capacity.
  • We offer excellent cakes and tea/coffee from 4:45 pm on performance afternoons.
  • Membership prices have not been changed for many years.
  • Subject to there being room we welcome guests, guest tickets are £5 each. Please do not telephone  to book guests. All guests must be accompanied by the member bringing them, and the member will be asked to sign a register. Please allow a few minutes extra to do this little piece of administration.

We ask all members to show their membership card at all performances.

Please arrive in good time for a 5:30 pm start. Late arrivals will cause inconvenience to other members, and the limit on seating capacity at the Theatre could occasionally require us to close the doors when it is full.
