Matthew Warchus Narrates Scene from New Film and Soon-to-Be Musical PRIDE

The New York Times just revealed a video of director Matthew Warchus narrating a scene from new comedy film PRIDE, which centers on a group of gay rights activists who raised money to help families affected by the miners' strike in 1984.

In the scene, the miners host a dance at their community hall and hilarity ensues when Jonathan (Dominic West) takes to the dance floor. Check out the clip HERE!

BroadwayWorld recently reported via THR that a musical adaptation of the U.K. comedy film is in the works. Warchus has previously directed musicals on both the West End and Broadway. In addition to Matilda, he has received Tony nominations for Boeing-Boeing, and The Norman Conquests and won a 2009 Tony Award for Best Direction of a Play for God of Carnage.

PRIDE stars Bill Nighy, Imelda Staunton, Dominic West, Paddy Considine, George McKay and Andrew Scott.

The film had its premiere in the Directors' Fortnight section in Cannes, where it received the Queer Palm award. It hit U.K. box offices earlier this month and landed at No. 3 behind The Boxtrolls and Lucy. PRIDE is due to arrive in U.S. theaters tomorrow, September 26th.
