26 Nov – A new force awakens at Capitol Theatre this December as "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" is set to be screened at the brand new cinema, GV @ Capitol. However, prior to the continuation of the saga, the GV cinema will first open with the screening of Chris Hemsworth-starrer "In the Heart of the Sea", which is slated for release on 3 December. "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" will be shown at the single-screen cinema on its release day, 17 December.
GV @ Capitol is located at the newly-renovated Capitol Theatre, which is the only dual-purpose theatre in Singapore as it hosts both arts and film events. The theatre is touted as Southeast Asia's largest single-screen seating cinema as it is able to seat around 1,000 guests. Capitol Theatre officially opened back in May with "Singapura: The Musical" as its opening act. It has since then played host to movies such as "7 Letters", "1965" and several restored movies from the '50s to '70s. Tickets to GV @ Capitol can be purchased online or at the Box Office located at B1 of Capitol Theatre. The Box Office will only be open from 1 December 2015 to 6 January 2016.
