Screening on a boat. That's right, you can climb aboard The Theatreship in Canary Wharf and have the unique experience of watching films on a boat that was built in 1913. It's had quite the upgrade since then, with a converted theatre space, bar and exhibition space. On the 26th, we will have a double bill of Mixed Nuts, some live-action shorts from the programme and Funimation, a curated selection of our animated shorts. And on the 27th, we will be celebrating the best new comedy films by women and LGBTQ+ filmmakers. We'll be organising some networking for the 26th and 27th.With over fifty short films to watch across four screenings, there’s something for all comedy tastes. From whimsy to weird, light to dark, and shorts with heart.Please join us for networking meet up from 11:PM on Saturday the 26th and Sunday 27th at the courtyard by the Theatreship to meet fellow creatives and fans of independent filmmaking and comedy.Short Com is synonymous with finding the funniest new films and championing emerging comedy filmmaking talent.
