Behind the Cine Workshop – Little Usher
For Parent & Child｜10 pairs per session
Ever wondered what it’s like to work in a cinema? In this fun and interactive workshop, kids and their parents will first get a backstage tour of the projection room, discovering the behind-the-scenes magic of how movies are played.

After completing their usher “duty,” participants will enjoy a movie screening together, making this a fun and memorable parent-child outing!
