The Cube
Independent cinema which also hosts regular gigs and music.
The Cube is a real asset to Bristol, an independent cinema run by volunteers with original programming. In addition to films and live music the 105 seat cinema is also used for workshops and discussions.
In essence The Cube shows the films you actually want to see, avoiding pure 'arthouse' programming. Expect to find Hollywood's (occasional) decent offerings listed alongside quality foreign and independent films as well as a few cult classics. Wednesday mornings (11am) is BabyCinema where babies are welcome while Wednesday evenings is BlueScreen - a sort of open mic night but for short films.
While often folk or indie based, gig listings for The Cube can really vary. The level of crowd interaction at the Cube can make it a great venue to catch one off shows from electronica producers to experimental artists.

Our recent recommendations for The Cube
Sell out warning! Sought-after NYC pianist Kelly Moran has lent her touch to everyone from FKA twigs and The Avalanches to Ryuichi Sakamoto and Yves Tumor. Now firmly at home on Warp, she conjures spellbinding modern classical and electronica with dazzling techgnostic finesse. Expansive, dreamlike pieces drifting somewhere between Caterina Barbieri, John Cage and Julianna Barwick… tip!
Kelly Moran , with Minor Conflict and Maes Y Circles at The Cube.
Sell out warning! Make no mistake, THIS is the Gay Sex Tuesday agenda! These perverts want to destroy the traditional weekend! They’ll force their slutty temporal deviance on you and your loved ones! Meet us at the Cube auditorium to protest this calendar-defying filth, where we’ll also be taking a long, hard look at the jaw-dropping output of 80s Tom-of-Finland-hunk-come-to-life Al Parker… for research purposes…
GAY SEX TUESDAYS does Friday night 7.30pm at The Cube.
A mute Scottish pianist and her daughter (11-year-old Oscar-winning Anna Paquin) arrive in 19th century New Zealand for an arranged marriage in this colonial Gothic mash-up of Bluebeard and the Brontes. Classical and expressionistic, restrained and fiercely erotic, The Piano shattered Cannes' glass ceiling and crowned Jane Campion the first woman to win the Palme d’Or. Essential cinema!
The Piano 6pm at The Cube.
You know when you fall for a guy, but he’s like, totally a warlock? In a Necronomicon-y wants to sacrifice you kinda way? Spoiler alert: it never ends well (but does make for a cracking flick). The Dunwich Horror is the Everest of Lovecraft adaptations: arcane low-budget evil with a mega dose of kill-all-hippies downer psychedelia. Cthulu compels you! To the Cube!
HIPPY TRIPPY SUMMER X THE CUBE OF WYRDING: THE DUNWICH HORROR at The Cube.
Taboos, desires and queer liberation… lubricated by an unholy quantity of goo! Experimental comedy meets bodily fluid performance art, deep in the recesses of the Primal Bog: after scrambling minds and pushing the limits of on-stage decency at the Fringe, Rosa Garland’s a shoe-in for a night of carnal Tough Sell x Cube clownery.
