What's On Thursday 19th September in Bristol

Events on Thursday 19th September

“The Cube Cinema is a great example of a commons, so we are very happy to have David Bollier over from America to give us an overview of the latest thinking on the commons based on his new book Free, Fair, and Alive which presents a foundational re-thinking of the commons — the self-organized social system that humans have used for millennia to meet their needs. It offers a compelling vision of a future beyond the dead-end binary of capitalism versus socialism that has almost brought the world to its knees.”

“Hey baby, comedy for grown-ups with babies is B A C K - and you're in for a treat. Park the buggy downstairs and come on up where there's softplay mats on the floor and a changing area so you can relax and enjoy the stellar comic talent in a baby safe space. Joining us this month is Athena Kugblenu and Angus Dunican.”

“Set during the Second World War this nostalgic, funny and moving story will appeal to all, from ten years and up. It is a vivid portrait of village life with all seventeen colourful characters played by one man.”

“The Velveteers are an American Rock outfit with an aggressive, fuzzy sound and grungy wisdom that transcends through the Siren-like power of Demi Demitro's (frontwomen/lead guitar) voice. Through the distorted baritone guitar riffs and thunderous drums they lure their audience with vibes that come right out of a classic horror flick.”
