Free Theatre collaborates with Tango Vibe for a Milonga with a difference. A great night to join friends for a drink and a taste of Argentinian cuisine and if you feel inspired, to dance the night away at the beautifully restored performance space, The Gym in The Arts Centre.
“A big thank you to all the performers helpers and staff for offering Christchurch such a wonderful venue and experience. Our Tango community had the privilege of experiencing Free Theatre at our UBU Milonga tonight. It was a big success and hopefully we can look forward to repeating it again in the near future.”
“Yes it was cool. They (Free Theatre) are doing a great job bringing something different and was fun to be part of it. Hope we can do it again”
“That was such a special night. Thanks so much, it was a real treat to dance somewhere so interesting and historic”

“Created a truly special atmosphere last night. Great to see total newbies feel comfortable enough to get up and have a dance, a nice mix of music, trapeze and the inexplicable. And great food! I kept imagining someone having just arrived in Chch stumbling upon this last night -- what a great bar!”
Picture
“The Ubu Milonga was fantastic! Thank you Free Theatre for hosting us -- we'd love to come back! :) “
“What a great night. Every one seemed to enjoy it and the feedback is great. A successful collaboration”
