Who’s ready for “desperate women whose appetite for life was greater than their capacity to live it”? (Tagline for Valley of the Dolls via the September 1972 issue of TV Guide magazine). YES! For the first FREE Lobotomy Room cinema club presentation of 2026, we’re dusting off a sentimental favourite and camp sacred text – the ultra-lurid 1967 film adaptation of Jackie Susann’s sensational best-seller, Valley of the Dolls! Starring the iconic trio of Patty Duke (as Neely O’Hara), Barbara Parkins (as Anne Welles) and Sharon Tate (as Jennifer North)! Downstairs at Fontaine’s in Dalston on Thursday 22 January. (Don’t get it twisted! The Lobotomy Room film club is usually third Thursday of every month, but Fontaine’s is closed until later this month). All you need to do is email [email protected] so we can keep track of numbers! (Don’t anticipate a response from the venue until later this month)! Oh, and enquire about the £6 special offer cocktails! Full deets here.
