(Tues 31st Jan // 7.30pm for 8pm start // £4/3)

Welcome to the first TLF of 2006: the monthly event bringing live and
screen-based dance and performance to the Cube Microplex - the rough, the polished, the thoughtful, the frivolous, the raw and the cooked. For anyone interested in original, experimental live or film work

Come out of hibernation and brave the winter weather to see dance films from the ends of the earth - Scandinavia & Australia - followed by live acts from locally-grown performers. Come early to see everything. Stay late to catch up and hatch plans. The Cube does a great line in hot drinks and warming spirits.
Background info: In early 2005 the Cube hosted the Bristol premiere of Action: a collection of dance films from across the South West of England. Since then, Action has been on tour, to 12 venues around the region and to Rotterdam International Film Festival and AntiStatic Dance on Screen Festival, Adelaide among others. Through touring the collection its curators - Kyra Norman & Lisa May Thomas - discovered other innovative compilations from around the world and the first part of tonight's programme brings you highlights from two of these collections - with thanks to Sam Oster in Adelaide and Barok Films, Denmark
