Welcome to Oak Bay�s new community movie house! We are welcoming back a tradition of big screen releases to the community through our regularly scheduled Tuesday movie nights in the David Foster Foundation Theatre.

This May, British Royalty will make their way to Canada�s shores, and it would only be proper of Oak Bay to mark that occasion. The Prince of Wales and Duchess of Cornwall�s visit have inspired us to craft a series of popular movies fit for Royalty. Experience the drama with friends in the comfortable luxury of Victoria�s newest movie house.
Enjoy some chef-made sheperd�s pie, house-made buttered popcorn and English toffee chocolate bar for dessert*. Purchase one of our micro-brews, fine wines or favourite libations, sit back in our movie chair seats and enjoy The Duchess on our big screen, amongst friends for $24 per person + tax.

Join us for The Duchess [Rated PG-13] at 6:15pm.
Director Saul Dibb takes the helm for this period drama documenting the romantic entanglements of Georgiana Cavendish (Keira Knightley), a beautiful and clever woman who becomes a celebrity of British high society when she marries the Duke of Devonshire (Ralph Fiennes) and becomes consort to one of the most powerful men in England. Beloved for her trend-setting fashion designs as well as her political activism, Georgiana�s fire and wit make her a beloved figure everywhere but her own home, where her cold and distant husband�s control over her is stifling, soon sending her into the arms of a another man -- an act that soon forces her to learn about the brutal difference in the rights afforded to 18th century men and women.
