Whatever Happened to Baby Jane? plus Interactive Performance

Directed by Robert Aldrich

What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? pits Bette Davis’s fading 1920s child star – the eponymous Baby – against Joan Crawford’s equally fading 1930s matinee star, Blanche Hudson.  With Blanche confined to a wheelchair following a mysterious accident, she’s at the mercy of Baby Jane.

This screening will feature a specially commissioned live performance from Manchester’s all-female cabaret-quartet Eggs Collective. Expect high camp histrionics as they bring the dark and depraved world of Blanche and Baby Jane to your Sunday afternoon. So, arch your eyebrows, sharpen your fingernails and get ready for the ultimate Gothic bitch fight.
