Watermans is West London's arts centre and open Wednesday to Sunday. See great films, live shows and exhibitions and discuss it all at the Guru, its unique bar and restaurant serving the best in drink, snacks and Indian dishes. In the cinema, take advantage of Wild Wednesdays – all cinema tickets £7 – all day on Wednesdays.

Catch the new releases including:

Theater Camp (12A) - Fri 8 – Thur 14 September (excl. Mon & Tue). See website for times.

Tony Award winner Ben Platt and Molly Gordon star in the original comedy Theater Camp as Amos and Rebecca-Diane who band together with the staff and students, staging a masterpiece to keep their beloved summer camp afloat.

Scrapper (12A) - Until 10 September (excl. Mon & Tue). See website for times.

It's said that it takes a village to raise a child but 12-year-old Georgie (Lola Campbell) has other ideas. Living alone since her beloved mum died, she is forced to confront reality when her absent father (Harris Dickinson) turns up.

Afire (12A) - Fri 8 - Thu 14 September. (excl. Mon & Tue). See website for times.

Christian Petzold's latest film - in competition at this year's Berlin Film Festival - unfolds like a modern-day fable, imbued with a sense of transcendent wonder. Leon (Thomas Schubert), a self-important author, joins his friend Felix (Langston Uibel) on a trip to his holiday house by the Baltic Sea. Much to their surprise, the house is already occupied when they arrive.

Summer Outdoor Cinema:

Bohemian Rhapsody (12A) Friday 8 September, 7.30pm

Enjoy this belter of a film on our gorgeous riverside terrace, with a chilled drink! Bohemian Rhapsody is a foot-stomping celebration of Queen, their music and their extraordinary lead singer Freddie Mercury. Freddie defied stereotypes and shattered convention to become one of the most beloved entertainers on the planet. The film traces the meteoric rise of the band through their iconic songs and revolutionary sound.

Special Event Cinema:

Matthew Bourne's Swan Lake (12A) Wed 13 September, 7pm. 127mins (no intervals)

This thrilling, audacious and witty production is perhaps still best known for replacing the female corps-de-ballet with a menacing male ensemble, which shattered convention, turned tradition upside down and took the dance world by storm. Filmed live at Sadler's Wells Theatre, London in 2019, Matthew Bourne's Swan Lake stars Will Bozier as The Swan/The Stranger, Liam Mower as The Prince and Nicole Kabera as The Queen.

Co_Sonic 1884 KM² Robertina Šebjanič 14 July – 10 September (Excl. Mon & Tues) FREE

Co_Sonic 1884 km² is a visual-poetic reflection and an AI powered soundscape, that tells the story of the (co)existence of river environments and their inhabitants. The project brings us closer to the life of river flora and fauna, while drawing attention to the problematic nature of human control over the aquatic environment.
