Escape's latest film is Layla, the daring yet tender romance set in and around East London’s iconic drag clubs, exploring the story of the eponymous British-Palestinian drag queen as they embark on a journey of self-discovery.

The highly anticipated release will be previewed across 150 independent cinemas on the evening of Monday 11 November, with more than 15,000 free cinema tickets available.

From Birmingham to Wales, Manchester, Northern Ireland and more, independent cinemas across the country will give everyone the chance to escape for a memorable outing this November

By partnering with independent venues such as Whitley Bay’s Jam Jar, Nottingham’s Savoy Cinema and Curzon Oxford, Escapes encourages audiences to enjoy an outing to the cinema at beautiful venues across the country.

Ahead of its official UK cinema release Escapes will offer one of the first opportunities to watch Layla on Monday, November 11 with tickets now on sale. Helping to make cinema more accessible, all Escapes screenings of Layla will be presented with descriptive subtitles on screen.
