Bridport Arts Centre is a combined arts venue in West Dorset with a busy programme of events that includes theatre, music, comedy, spoken word, event cinema and film. BAC is the producer of the annual film festival From Page to Screen, which celebrates the art of adaptation. FPTS shows the best of new and classic film adaptations and hosts industry curators and guest speakers each year.
The only independent cinema in West Dorset, Bridport Arts Centre programmes film throughout the year as a core part of our activity, with a focus on British and specialised films. The eclectic programme seeks to find new ways to engage audiences with film, showing modern classics alongside new releases and more niche content.
