​Oh don’t ask why! For if we don’t find the next whisky bar, I tell you we must die! Ubu’s back in town. Join Ubu, Jenny, Polly, Lucy and their friends, for an evening at Brecht’s Whisky Bar in The Gym, the Arts Centre. It’s not all whisky though, we also have beer, wine and songs. Fatted calves are already being slaughtered for your masticating pleasure. But you must have dollars at the door. Three pennies won’t cut it. Oh, you know why!
"We weren't expecting that. The best $10 we've spent in a long time. Congratulations"
"Loved that, thanks!"
"I didn't expect to find something like this in Chch"
