SCALARAMA LEEDS 2025 OPENING GALA

Join us for a very special Scalarama Leeds 2025 Opening Gala event, which celebrates the life and legacy of the late Liverpool-born cinephile Robin Little. The evening features a screening of SCALA!!! - the riotous documentary about London’s legendary Scala cinema (the original inspiration for the Scalarama festival), with appearances from John Waters, Stewart Lee, Mary Harron and more - plus a surprise film, making it a double-bill in true Scala tradition. We are thrilled to welcome special guests SCALA!!! co-director Ali Catterall and composer Barry Adamson. The evening will also include a Lucky Dip giveaway from Robin’s treasured cult film DVD collection, carrying forward Robin’s love of cinema and celebrating physical media. All profits from the screening will go to suicide prevention charities.
