ActOne’s story begins with an empty building on Acton High Street and a group of local residents who felt passionately about the fate of the historic Passmore Edwards Old Library.
After a successful campaign to return the building to community use, work began on the building in spring 2021 – supported by a team of over 100 volunteers – with the cinema officially opening in autumn 2021.
A creative and cultural hub for the local community, ActOne Cinema has two 60-seat screening rooms, a beautiful lounge and café and a film programme that brings audiences a wide range of cinema including independent and arthouse film and festival screenings as well as live events. They hold weekly parent and baby screenings, offer children’s films every Saturday morning and run regular relaxed screenings. Read more about ActOne.
