HIDDEN HIGHLAND HISTORIES WW2 @ Inverness Museum And Art Gallery
Spies, code-breakers and evacuees are just some of the topics covered in this exhibition of images, photographs and film of the Second World War at home and abroad. The exhibition is based on first hand experiences which are at times harrowing and traumatic but also courageous, surprising and funny. The project was developed over 9 months as part of a national initiative, ‘Their Past Your Future 2’, in partnership with the Highland Print Studio, Highland Museums and Highland independent museums.
Critically acknowledged as Britain’s finest blues and boogie pianist, Bob Hall’s distinctive and original piano style has influenced generations of piano players and left a lasting legacy.
ALICE IN WONDERLAND @ Vue Cinema Inverness, 11.40am
19-year-old Alice returns to the magical world from her childhood adventure, where she reunites with her old friends and learns of her true destiny: to end the Red Queen's reign of terror.
A woman who has an elaborate scheme to propose to her boyfriend on Leap Day, an Irish tradition which occurs every time the date February 29 rolls around, faces a major setback when bad weather threatens to derail her planned trip to Dublin. With the help of an innkeeper, however, her cross-country odyssey just might result in her getting engaged.
A paraplegic marine dispatched to the planet Pandora on a unique mission becomes torn between following his orders and protecting the world he feels is his home.
PERCY JACKSON & THE LIGHTNING THIEF @ Vue Cinema Inverness, 1.30pm
It's the 21st century, but the gods of Mount Olympus and assorted monsters have walked out of the pages of high school student Percy Jackson's Greek mythology texts and into his life. And they're not happy: Zeus' lightning bolt has been stolen, and Percy is the prime suspect. Even more troubling is the sudden disappearance of Percy's mother. As Percy finds himself caught between angry and battling gods, he and his friends embark on a cross-country adventure to catch the true lightning thief, save Percy's mom, and unravel a mystery more powerful than the gods themselves.
THE PRINCESS AND THE FROG @ Vue Cinema Inverness, 1.40pm
The classic fairytale gets an updated twist in Disney's animated musical comedy set in the French quarter of the city of New Orleans. Transformed into a frog by the evil voodoo man Dr Facilier, Prince Naveen from the land of Maldonia goes in search of a princess to break the spell. He finds a young African-American girl called Tiana and, mistaking her for a princess, asks her for a restorative kiss. Things, however, don't go to plan when the kiss only succeeds in changing Tiana into a frog too. Together, the two unfortunate amphibians go in search of Mama Odie, the good voodoo priestess of the Bayou. As they make their way through the mystical bayous of Louisiana, they encounter new friends in the form of Louis, a trumpet-playing alligator, and Ray, a hopelessly romantic firefly.
Film Times
As a toxin begins to turn the residents of Ogden Marsh, Iowa into violent psychopaths, sheriff David Dutton (Olyphant) tries to make sense of the situation while he, his wife (Mitchell), and two other unaffected townspeople band together in a fight for survival.
Based on the best selling book by Alice Sebold, The Lovely Bones is the story of a 14-year-old girl from suburban Pennsylvania who is murdered by her neighbor. She tells the story from Heaven, showing the lives of the people around her and how they have changed all while attempting to get someone to find her lost body.

"Pobby and Dingan aren't dead."
By Ben Rice
Adapted for the stage by Rob Evans
Sometimes we have to believe in the impossible
What if you lived in the middle of nowhere?
What if your dad spent all day searching for something he might never find?
What if your mum dreamed of living on the other side of the world?
And what if your sister was a fruit-loop who spent all day playing with two invisible friends?
12 year-old Ashmol lives in the Australian outback with his mum, dad and his little sister Kellyanne… and her two invisible friends Pobby and Dingan.
One day, Pobby and Dingan disappear. At first Ashmol is happy that the imaginary friends are out of his life, but Kellyanne becomes sick. The longer Pobby and Dingan are lost, the sicker Kellyanne becomes. Finally Ashmol decides that there is only one thing to do: he must find Pobby and Dingan.
Pobby and Dingan is a heartbreaking, heart-warming, beautiful contemporary tale about the possibility of dreams, the preciousness of hope and how, sometimes, we have to believe in the impossible.
School groups can take advantage of a FREE WORKSHOP! Just ask Box Office for details.

When you’re only sixteen, could the events of one night really shape the course of your life? Divert you from becoming the man you might have become, stunt you, burden you, trap you, destroy you, change the very core of you? Leave you empty.
Cathy Forde is a leading Scottish novelist (Fat Boy Swim, Skarrs) and this is her first play. It’s fast, furious, and like a piece of music, grows and swells to a mind-altering crescendo.

"The trio have a strong rapport while performing and it’s great to watch a band when you can tell they enjoy playing together... when the band wrapped up their final number of a two hour set everyone was left wanting more."
Vibrant, dynamic, exciting, original, sensitive and lyrical, Bellevue Rendezvous was formed in 2006 from a mutual love of beautiful, quirky and varied tunes from all over the world. They are an acoustic trio featuring an unusual combination of instruments - the line-up is Gavin Marwick (fiddle), Ruth Morris (nyckelharpa) and Cameron Robson (bouzouki). In their repertoire they have original tunes, as well as music from Scotland, Ireland, England, Wales, Serbia, France, Brittany, Macedonia, Poland, Canada, Finland and Sweden. Bellevue Rendezvous might be a relatively new name on the folk scene but the individual members' sheer musicality and years of experience make for a band of real beauty. Together, the three instrumentalists combine to create a detailed, expansive sound.
