Honeybee Blues tells the story of the world’s disappearing European honeybees and the efforts of Australian scientist Denis Anderson to save them from annihilation. From the old growth forests and orchards of Tasmania and mainland Australia to the industrial farmlands of the United States and the highlands of Papua New Guinea, Honeybee Blues is a scientific detective story that tells a 21st century cautionary tale.

All tickets $10, available from the State Cinema only.
On a construction scale that parallels the Great Pyramids, the Empire State and the Golden Gate bridge, our sixth cinema has been carved out of the bowels of the building. With the removal (by wheelbarrow) of hundreds of tonnes of earth, using enough concrete and steel to build a small nuclear power station, The State’s sixth screen, which will be known as Cinema 4 (just to confuse everyone), marks the beginning of a new era. Utilising the most advanced and highest quality digital technology, we’re revolutionising your cinema experience.
It's our (second) newest cinema, it's underground, it'll be showcasing an alternative assortment of arthouse and eclectic films, and it's decked out with plush lounges for seating.... It's our newest and most exciting cinema experience yet!
Situated underground in our basement, this brand-new cinema offers you the chance to sink into a comfy couch with your hot or cold beverage and enjoy a great film on the big screen in style! Also available for private functions, enquiries via the Contact page.
