EALING PICTUREHOUSE

Overview

Picturehouse is a leading UK film company incorporating cinema, distribution and home entertainment. At Picturehouse, we love cinemas. Nestled in the heart of their neighbourhoods, each of our cinemas are distinct, full of personality and run by welcoming and attentive staff. We don't just screen excellent films. We provide places to eat, meet and relax, and host a busy calendar of events for everyone to explore. If you love opera or theatre, we screen it live and direct from stages around the world. If you're all about superhero films, come to one of our state-of-the-art screens and get yourself a large popcorn. Our impressive cafes, bars and restaurants cater for everyone. From burgers to superfood salads, coffees to cocktails and a wide selection of beers and wines. We screen 35mm and 70mm special presentations at select Picturehouse Cinemas, welcome independent film collectives and are proud hosts of some of the most visionary film festivals around. Our team of passionate programmers carefully curate a broad range of films, from quality mainstream and family movies to indies, documentaries and foreign language releases. We believe cinema can change lives and broaden perspectives. Catering to a diverse and inclusive audience is part of our DNA. We know that our communities make us and we champion films made for all ages, backgrounds and walks of life. We take our planet and the climate crisis seriously. From Edinburgh down to Exeter, we play our own small part in the safekeeping of our planet and look to set an example for how cinemas can best reduce their energy consumption and waste.

Access guidance

• You can book wheelchair spaces and carer tickets online or by phone 0207 294 7908; Text Relay call 018001 02072 947908). Please see the carers section above for more details about carer tickets.
• Accessible Toilets are available. These toilets have National Key Scheme (Radar) locks, and a key is available at the Box Office or from the usher.
• We welcome guide dogs can accommodate them in the auditoria and bars. Please book in advance so that we can allocate the most appropriate seating. We are able to provide drinking water for your dog, and we will be happy to look after your dog during the screening.
• The Access Card can be used to communicate that you require an Essential Companion. Please contact the accessibility helpline.
• For guests with vision impairment, we have an Audio Description (AD) system. Like a narrator telling a story AD is an additional commentary describing body language, expressions and movements taking place and is delivered via a wireless headset, which you can borrow from the Box Office when you collect your ticket. The AD soundtrack is undetectable to anyone not wearing a headset and fits within the silent gaps in a film so it doesn't interfere with the dialogue. For more details about the headsets and Audio Description, check the accessibility page for your local Picturehouse. To find out if a screening is audio-described, check the film listings on our website (look for the 'AD' tag), ask a member of staff at the cinema, or call our accessibility helpline.
• Most of our cinemas have hearing loop facilities and/or infrared systems. Hearing loops are generally found in the public area of the cinema, such as at the ticket office and refreshment counter, as well as in some cinema screens. A hearing loop sends sound from a source – such as a microphone at a counter – straight to hearing aids on the hearing loop setting (this used to be called the 'T' setting). Most hearing aids have a hearing loop setting. Infrared systems are generally used within the screens to amplify the film's soundtrack. The cinema provides an infrared neck loop receiver and all you have to do is turn on the hearing loop setting on your hearing aid. For details about the equipment available at each cinema and how to use it, check the accessibility page for your local Picturehouse. We offer regular subtitled (captioned) screenings, which provide a transcription of the audio from a film, displayed at the bottom of the cinema screen. Along with the dialogue from the film, the subtitles include non-dialogue audio such as "(sighs)" or "(door creaks)" to ensure people who are deaf or hard of hearing can enjoy the full film plot. These screenings may also benefit those with English as a second language. Subtitled screenings are programmed on a weekly basis, but not all films are provided with a captioned track, so some weeks we may have fewer subtitled screenings as a result.
