WANT to spend an evening with Queen B?

Beyoncé fans will get their first chance to see the star's intimate feature-length documentary Beyoncé- Life is But a Dream on the big screen on Wednesday May 8 at Birch Carroll & Coyle Maroochydore in a one off screening.

The film is a multi-faceted portrait of the 16-time Grammy Award-winning singer, businesswoman, songwriter, actress, entrepreneur, wife and mother and offers a rare glimpse into the realities of her life as a superstar.

The film sheds light on Beyoncé's childhood in Houston, the intense physical and emotional demands of life in the studio, the commitment and hard work required as she prepares for live performances and the realities of running a business alongside family life.

A mix of personal interview footage, some of it filmed by Beyoncé herself on her laptop, home movies and stage performances, this feature length documentary sees the star reflect on celebrity, the refuge she finds onstage, her joy at becoming a mother for the first time and her experiences of returning to the spotlight after the birth of her daughter, Blue Ivy Carter, in January 2012.

'Making a documentary was a chance to show who I am and what I really care about. It was a new experience for me and an opportunity to examine my thoughts and emotions in a new way, especially during a time when my spirit was put to the test. I was starting a business, launching a record and keeping a big secret inside of me,' the star revealed.

'Sometimes my instinct would be to remove moments where I came across as weak or vulnerable but I didn't want this to become a fluff piece; it was important to keep it real,' she said. 

Beyoncé - Life is But a Dream premiered in the US on HBO to an audience of 1.8 million viewers, making it the highest rating HBO documentary since 2004.
