Monsters Inc (U)

Accessibility & Seating
Our summer screens are located outside on the grass, so we recommend bringing a picnic blanket to sit on.

If you need to bring a chair due to specific mobility or injury reasons, please speak to one of our helpful stewards first, before setting up. They will help identify a suitable spot where you can put out your chair without blocking the view for other film goers.

There is a dropped-curb in front of The entrance to the Ivy restaurant, for customers with wheelchairs to access the grass. Disabled customers take priority along this edge in front of the Ivy. Should you require assistance, a steward will be located in this area to provide additional support.

All our films will be screened with subtitles to aid viewers with hearing impairments.

If you have any questions about accessibility to any of our events, please email arts+events@canarywharf.com for further information.

Hopes – A film by Ghyama Arts

For this project Ghyama Arts worked in collaboration with practitioners from Half Moon Young People’s Theatre. Their goal was to create a performance for the Tower Hamlets Season of Bangla Drama focusing on their hopes. This performance was very personal for the participants as they spent a long time reflecting on themselves and their hopes. they developed their own acting and storytelling skills, thinking about exploring the ways they could use sensory elements in the performance.

Ghyama Arts (Awesome Arts!) provides high quality arts activities in theatre, film and circus to increase confidence and independence for disabled adults who attend the day service provision of The Bangladeshi Parents and Carers Association (BPCA) in Tower Hamlets and Newham.



Bollywood Film by Ghyama Arts

Over12 weeks Ghyama Arts participants worked closely with practitioners from Chocolate Films to create their very own Bollywood movie. All the music in this film was created by the participants along with choreographed dances. Everyone developed their characters, focusing on the different emotions they would feel and how they would show these emotions.
