HOH subtitled screenings

HOH subtitles, or ‘closed captioning’, refers to subtitles specifically intended for people who are Deaf or hard of hearing. They are a transcription rather than a translation, so as well as reproducing dialogue in films, aim to describe every additional non-dialogue sound available to a hearing audience, e.g. “(sighs)” or “(door creaks)” and song lyrics. These subtitles are hard-coded onto the screen. All guests are welcome to purchase tickets to these screenings and in our experience, hearing guests at these performances do not find the subtitles to be distracting at all.

Power Ballad

Power Ballad turns up the volume on nostalgia, music and comedy in a wildly entertaining new film starring Paul Rudd and Nick Jonas. Rudd plays a washed-up 1990s rock star whose glory days seem long behind him, while Jonas plays a younger pop sensation who unexpectedly records one of his forgotten songs and turns it into a global smash hit. When the two musicians collide, their rivalry, egos and generational differences spark a chaotic battle over ownership of the song that could change both their careers forever.
