For one night only, experience the untold story of one of the most quietly revolutionary bands of the British Invasion. Hung Up On A Dream is a time-traveling journey through the music, memories, and magic of The Zombies—a band whose shimmering harmonies and baroque pop brilliance gave us Time of the Season, She’s Not There, and the immortal Odessey and Oracle.

Directed by musician and filmmaker Robert Schwartzman, this deeply personal documentary blends rare archival footage, intimate new interviews, and vivid visual storytelling to explore how a group of teenagers from St. Albans crafted songs that still sound ahead of their time. It’s a love letter to resilience, creativity, and the strange, beautiful alchemy of a band that never quite fit the mold—but changed music anyway.
