Inside

A theatre in the cargo hold

Built in 1913, Theatreship has been converted into a public arts centre in the old Canary Wharf docks. Descend into the vessel for the characterful bar, exhibition space and auditorium, where the programme ranges from cinema and folk music to contemporary performances.

The bar

Drinks and food before the show

The onboard bar serves cocktails, wine and beer, with burgers, pies, pizza and food from street food vendors also tagged on the menu. There is seating inside the ship and outside on the top deck, making it easy to arrive early for a drink before an event.
