‘Sing Street’ Will Be Shown Outdoors On The Big Screen This Month

Happenings, the season of open air cinema events, will be screening the brilliant Sing Street this month.

Set in 1980s Dublin, the film follows ‘Cosmo’, a teenager who’s forced to leave his fancy school to attend the Christian Brothers on Synge Street due to his parents’ money woes. After a truly terrible first day, he spots a beautiful girl outside the school and attempts to impress her with the fact that he’s in the band. It works, but that then necessitates the forming of a band…

Directed by John Carney of Once fame, the musical comedy consisted of a largely unknown cast, apart from Irish acting pillars of Jack Reynor, Aidan Gillen and Maria Doyle Kennedy.
