Join us for a special screening of The Commitments—Alan Parker’s gritty, funny, and soulful 1991 film that became an instant cult classic. Set in working-class Dublin, the film follows a group of misfit musicians chasing soul music glory and features unforgettable performances, a legendary soundtrack, and raw, real energy that still resonates today.

✨ What to expect:
A short talk about the original book The Commitments by Roddy Doyle, behind-the-scenes stories from the film, Alan Parker’s unique direction style, and the casting of non-actors who went on to have fascinating careers in music and film.
Live traditional Irish music before and after the screening, bringing the spirit of Dublin to life right in our venue.

Whether you’re a long-time fan or discovering The Commitments for the first time, this will be an evening of soul, stories, and celebration not to miss.

Come along, bring a friend, and let’s celebrate the sound of soul through a uniquely Irish lens.
