Lady is an off-beat comedy about a lonely, narcissistic aristocrat (Sian Clifford) who dupes a struggling, opportunistic director into filming her every move. But her obsession with the spotlight takes a surreal turn when she starts becoming… invisible.

Blending mockumentary and magical realism, Lady satirises our desperate need to feel seen.

"Unpredictable, unique, hilarious (thanks in large part to Clifford) and mostly successful with its heartfelt moments." Daniel Allen, Loud and Clear Reviews

After years of slapdash sequels and waning fandom, the Camp Miasma slasher franchise is handed over to an enthusiastic young director for resurrection. But when she visits the original's star, a now-reclusive actress shrouded in mystery, the two women fall into a blood-soaked world of desire, fear, and delirium.

"Everything is a remake of a remake, Schoenbrun tells us, but Miasma is an utterly unique, exhilaratingly entertaining vision, both blood-drenched and beautiful." Laura Venning, Empire Magazine

Starring Gillian Anderson, Hannah Einbinder, Patrick Fischler, Zach Cherry, Jack Haven

Directed by Jane Schoenbrun

A 19-year-old Anthony Bourdain travels to Provincetown and stumbles into the chaotic world of a restaurant kitchen, setting off a summer that will shape the course of his life.

"With Banderas particularly touching as Bourdain’s unlikely father figure, Tony immerses us in this sleepy Massachusetts community and the character’s gradual artistic awakening." Tim Grierson, Screen International

Starring Dominic Sessa, Antonio Banderas, Emilia Jones, Leo Woodall, Stavros Halkias.

Directed by Matt Johnson

The Summer Book follows an intergenerational family spending a transformative summer at their rustic vacation home on an unspoiled, remote island in the Gulf of Finland. Adapted from Tove Jansson’s beloved novel, the film explores grief, nature, and the delicate bonds between a young girl, her wise grandmother (Glenn Close), and her grieving father (Anders Danielsen Lie).

"Attentive to characterful details of accent and posture, Close plays this tender-tough old bird beautifully, resisting twinkly sentimentality while maintaining a palpably affectionate rapport with Matthews." Guy Lodge, Variety

Joe and Angela’s marriage is on thin ice. When they invite their enigmatic upstairs neighbours for a dinner party, the night spirals into unexpected places. Have they reignited the spark or lit the match that burns it all down?

From director Olivia Wilde and starring Seth Rogen, Olivia Wilde, Penélope Cruz and Edward Norton

"Wilde’s latest slots into a rich lineage of hilariously awkward sex comedies. With a stellar cast finding alchemy in their contrasting styles, it’s daringly close to the bone and frequently fall-off-your-chair funny." Philip De Semlyen, Time Out

I WANT YOUR SEX tells the story of Elliot (Cooper Hoffman), a kind-hearted if unmotivated twentysomething whose fantasies quickly come true when he lands a job with renowned artist and provocateur Erika Tracy (Olivia Wilde).

When Erika breaks down office boundaries and takes Elliot on as her sexual muse and subordinate, their sexually charged relationship makes him question his own desires, boundaries, and relationships with his uptight girlfriend (Charli XCX) and repressed roommate (Chase Sui Wonders). As the stakes heighten and power dynamics shift, the film mixes satire, romantic comedy, mystery, and murder through the colourful and edgy visual language for which Araki is best known.

"Mr. Hoffman is proving to be an invaluable performer with a predilection for piquant-to-risky material. He and Ms. Wilde work off each other brilliantly, his naivete getting crushed by her sophistication." Kyle Smith, Wall Street Journal

Please note: There will be a short recorded Q&A with director, Gregg Araki shown before the screenings on 28th, 30th and 31st August and 3rd September.

The great Willem Dafoe lends his delicate gravitas to the role of Ed Saxberger, a forgotten

New York poet who works in the post office. After an eager and flattering young admirer

(Edmund Donovan) appears on his doorstep, Saxberger is beckoned into a coterie of

twentysomething admirers who anoint him as a rediscovered genius. Intoxicated by the

attention—and by the alluring presence of Gloria, the group’s “tragic heroine” (a sinuous,

Kurt Weill–crooning Greta Lee)—Saxberger gradually reckons with the authenticity of his

newfound poetic circle.

This thoughtful, witty second feature from Kent Jones (DIANE), working from a sly and hugely entertaining script by Oscar-nominated screenwriter Samy Burch (MAY DECEMBER), is a wistful yet unromantic look at a lost idea of downtown New York.

"It reaffirms that Burch is a notable talent with a particular knack for creating complex and contradictory female characters. It may be Ed's story, but it's Gloria who steals the film whenever she's on screen, thanks to a knockout turn from Lee." Wendy Ide, Screen International

Sundance Award winning comedy, THE INCOMER is a modern folk fairy tale set on a remote Scottish island, where two siblings (Gayle Rankin and Grant O'Rourke) survive by hunting seabirds, retelling the stories of their ancestors, and defending the isle from dreaded 'Incomers'. Their world is upended with the arrival of an awkward council worker (Domhnall Gleeson) who has come to uproot them from their homeland on behalf of the government.

"Writer-director Louis Paxton’s debut has the keenest of wits, and Rankin and O’Rourke deliver two of the funniest comic turns we’ve seen in a long time." David Fear, Rolling Stone

Maria (Saoirse Ronan) a primary school teacher doing her best to inspire a class of 10-year-olds, is stifled by one unruly and chaotic student.

With her career in question and the child's behaviour spiralling, she makes a series of bad decisions that lead to her accidentally taking and locking this "bad apple" in her home.

Maria tries desperately to backtrack, but when the class starts flourishing and the staff and parents are thrilled with the improvement, she finds herself in a very complicated predicament.

"This is a consistently engaging, funny film, one that should provoke conversations not just about the systemic problems in education but how they reflect everything around them." Brian Tallerico, RogerEbert.com

BAFTA Award-winner Lesley Manville (Phantom Thread) joins Aidan Turner (Rivals) in a striking new staging of Christopher Hampton’s celebrated adaptation of the classic novel, where among the glittering salons of the super-rich, one misstep can mean ruin.

Marquise de Merteuil is a master in the art of survival. Alongside the magnetic Vicomte de Valmont, they turn seduction into strategy and weaponise desire. But when their alliance collapses into rivalry, the battle between them threatens to destroy everyone in their path.

Filmed live on stage at the National Theatre, Marianne Elliott (Angels in America) directs this thrilling game of love, lies, and social warfare.

By Christopher Hampton

Based on the novel by Pierre Choderlos de Laclos

Directed by Marianne Elliott

Approximate run time is 3 hours with a 15 minute interval.

Hersh Dagmarr returns to the Arthouse and this time, it’s all French.

Paris, as Dagmarr remembers it, was eternal. The smoky cellars of Montmartre, the gaslights of Le Chat Noir, and the songs that made you feel the most romantic city in the world was invented purely for you.

Why did he leave though? Why did he move to Berlin and never come back? What exactly happened to him somewhere between the last century and this one? Tonight, he intends to finally tell all… Or most of it.

Paris When It Sizzles is an evening of French song — Edith Piaf mostly but also Serge Gainsbourg, Juliette Nourredine, Les Rita Mitsouko, George Bizet — and even some Frenchified numbers by The Pet Shop Boys and Kylie Minogue. With the brilliant George Webster on piano.

Convinced he is preparing his long-awaited comeback, Dagmarr conjures a Paris frozen at the moment he left it, in tribute to a life he refuses to admit is long gone.

Stories, songs, sequins, romanticism, and a dramatic phantom in deep denial. What more could a hot September Friday night ask for?

Please note: The Show will consist of two 40 minute sets with a 15 minute interval. Prompt start as no ads/trailers.

Please also note: This show is excluded from membership discounts.

Award-winner Sandra Oh (Killing Eve) plays the title role in this razor-sharp reimagining of Molière’s classic dark comedy.

Telling the truth isn’t always that simple. Alice, a brilliant novelist, despises the carefully constructed lies of modern society. But the more she challenges those around her, the fiercer the backlash becomes. Soon, she must confront the price of speaking her truth in a world that would rather silence her.

Filmed live on stage at the National Theatre, Indhu Rubasingham directs Martin Crimp’s (Cyrano de Bergerac) highly anticipated play.

Cast: Sandra Oh, Paul Chahidi, Tom Mison, Jemima Rooper, Abigail Cruttenden, Poppy Townsend White, Teddy Holton-Frances, Gabby Wong, Francesca Fullilove, Imogen Elliott

Josh O’Connor (The Crown; Challengers) leads the cast in this searing revival of Clifford Odets’ knockout American classic.

1930s New York, at the height of the Depression. Joe Bonaparte is a gifted young violinist with a future in music, until a chance at fame and fortune lures him into the brutal world of professional boxing. He must confront what he’s willing to sacrifice, who he’s willing to become and how to find his place in a world that demands he choose a side.

Brought to life with a live string quartet and filmed live from the Almeida Theatre, Olivier Award-winner Sam Yates (Vanya) directs this propulsive drama exploring ambition, identity, and the high price of success.
