Our finale summer screening for 2023! Journey into a riotous, super-smart, emotive and funny candy-coloured world with us, as Greta Gerwig’s massive summer box office smash Barbie glitters for one night only on our open-air big screen at the amazing DiSH street food and drink venue at Harwell Science and Innovation Campus near Didcot, Oxfordshire.

Barbie’s (the incredible Margot Robbie) perfect life is thrown into chaos when she starts having intrusive thoughts about death. Desperate to restore order, she embarks on a wide-eyed mission into the real world with boyfriend Ken (the brilliant Ryan Gosling – he’s just Ken) to connect with the human who plays with her. Trailblazing director Greta Gerwig delivers a new kind of ambitious and giddily entertaining blockbuster that boasts definitive performances from her two lead actors, backed up by a hugely talented cast and a plastic-coated universe of stellar, smart cameos. Believe the hype!
