Recent History

La Charrette started out as a tiny, 23-seat venue, sited in a back garden in the town of Gorseinon, near Swansea. ‘La Charrette’ (French for ‘the carriage’) was built from a disused railway carriage by the late Gwyn Phillips, who fell in love with the silver screen while working in local cinemas as a teenager.

The British Film Institute has recognised La Charrette as the smallest cinema in Wales.

In 2008 BBC2’s Culture Show hosted a special premiere screening at La Charrette of the previously unseen Danny Boyle film Alien Love Triangle (2002), starring Kenneth Branagh, Courteney Cox and Heather Graham. For the screening, Branagh made a personal appearance, while Cox and Graham recorded special messages.
