We’re delighted to once again present the DFT’s most popular annual program in its original format – combining all the nominees in both the short animation and short live-action categories into one spectacularly entertaining presentation, with an intermission between the two sections. Discovering the narrative surprises and visual riches of the Oscar® Shorts on the big screen provides fresh jolts of pleasure and continuous, renewed wonder at the ways in which the cinema can explore the world through fresh eyes and unbridled imaginations.

Experience some of the year’s most imaginative works of cinematic storytelling with other fans, family, and friends whose first impressions of each film are uncluttered by advance hype – then make your personal picks for the best and see the winners announced when the Oscars® are awarded on Sunday, March 12th. Advance ticket purchase is strongly recommended. The remaining seats will be available at the door prior to each performance. Running time is generally around three hours, plus a 25-minute intermission. 

The showing on March 3 @ 7 p.m. was canceled due to inclement weather.
