Free Theatre Christchurch presents: Kafka Ubu Night

Warming up to an extended season of the critically acclaimed Kafka’s Amerika, Free Theatre Christchurch is presenting a special one-off Kafka Ubu Night this Friday from 6pm.

Ubu Nights are a series of weekly entertainments (combining theatre, music, film and hospitality) that engage diverse communities in interactive and sensory experiences. Free Theatre is collaborating on these Ubu Nights with Christchurch artists from different disciplines. The unique experience of contemporary performance is quite unlike anything on offer in Christchurch and is proving very popular with Neat Places describing Ubu Nights as “our new favourite thing to do on Friday nights”.

This week the Free Theatre company will create an environment that weaves together film, music and performance inspired by the great dreamer’s work. In a city and time that has been described as Kafkaesque – often surreal and dreamlike – this evening’s entertainment promises to make the familiar strange and the strange familiar. Through intimate lighting and evocative soundscape, combined with tasty morsels of Kafka’s Czech homeland, this Kafka Ubu Night will provide yet another unique experience in the company’s new home in the Arts Centre – The Gym.

As with every Ubu Night, Ubu and his friends will be in attendance to provide a taste of the Pataphysical. Expect the unexpected.

This special one-off Kafka Ubu Night is a way of warming up for the extended season of critically acclaimed and popular Kafka’s Amerika. See the Free Theatre website for details: www.freetheatre.org.nz/kafkas-amerika.html
