About this Event

Part of Theatreship's guest event series - where contemporary artists take over the ship to highlight the stories they want to tell.

Here's some more info from them:

Using immersive sound design, humour and creativity, each of these animations take us on a trip through richly realised worlds. This strand puts women animators at the fore and celebrates themes of courage, imagination, and the patience and dedication inherent in the craft of animation.

The programme includes the following 10 animations:

THEY (UK 8 min) Dir. Renée Zellweger

Boom! Grandpa, Boom! (CA/TW 5 min) Dir. June Chia-En Lee

Slump (UK 4 min) Dir. Max Thomas

Small Hours (UK 10 min) Dir. Oscar Wyndham Lewis

The Hermit Crab (HK 13 min) Dir. Beaux Salix

Sandstorm (VNM 5 min) Dir. Tea Truong

Brain Space (UK 8 min) Dir. Laura Tofarides

Commando (UK 4 min) Dir. Will Murphy

Like Friend, Like Deer (IRN 13 min) Dir. Malek Eghbali

Theatreship is committed to broadening access to the arts - we know that ticket price is a huge barrier for some. If the regular ticket price is beyond what you feel able to afford for whatever reason, please don't hesitate to email us at [email protected] and we will do everything we can to help, no questions asked. We also offer arts supporter tickets, for those that can, to pay a higher price to support the venue, the artists who perform here and subsidised tickets for others.

Due to the historic nature of the ship, we’re sorry to say there is not currently step-free access into the theatre space. We have dedicated staff on hand to help with stairs, and an onsite wheelchair once you’re inside the venue. If you have any access needs, please do e-mail us at [email protected].
