Relaxed Screening: Bohemian Rhapsody (12A)

Bohemian Rhapsody

Bohemian Rhapsody is a foot-stomping celebration of Queen, their music and their extraordinary lead singer Freddie Mercury.

Bohemian Rhapsody traces Freddie Mercury‘s meteoric rise as he defied stereotypes and shattered convention to become one of the most beloved entertainers on the planet.

Through their iconic songs and revolutionary sound, Queen reach unparalleled success. But in an unexpected turn, Freddie (Rami Malek) followed darker influences and shunned Queen in pursuit of his solo career.

Having suffered greatly without the collaboration of Queen, Freddie manages to reunite with his bandmates just in time for Live Aid.

Despite being diagnosed with AIDS, Freddie leads the band in one of the greatest performances in the history of rock music.

Today, Queen now has a legacy that continues to inspire outsiders, dreamers and music lovers alike.

Relaxed screenings are specially tailored for film fans who may be on the autistic spectrum, have Tourette Syndrome, anxiety, sensory difficulties or other learning disabilities.

The cinema environment is tailored to the needs of the audience by having the lights dimmed, though not off, and the volume levels a little lower than usual. Attendees are free to sit in whichever seat they like and can enter and exit the room at any time, with easy access for any wheelchair users. Staff are trained and ready to assist with any help the audience may need during these trips to the cinema at Barbican.
