Theatreship


Theatreship is a not-for-profit arts centre on a converted historic cargo ship in the docks of Canary Wharf, London.
Theatreship opened to the public in 2024 and is the first vessel in the Canal and River Trust's 'Arts and Heritage Berth'.

Programme

Programming on the ship focuses on experimental, under-represented and interdisciplinary music and arts, with a particular remit to support new work and genre-pushing artists.
Theatreship's programme opened with a season of the films of Powell and Pressburger paired with contemporary live performances as a part of the British Film Institute's 2024 celebration of the filmmakers.
Theatreship runs a regular weekly free mystery cinema night, where audience members do not know what the film will be in advance.

People

Theatreship was founded by Inigo Lapwood. Television producer Natalie Hill is the head of film programming and concert pianist Karl Lutchmayer is the head of classical music programming.
