Every two months Space is the Place presents INTERGALACTIC NIGHTS in the BIMHUIS café. Slightly inspired by the ditdit-dada-ditdits in de Ruimte, you will hear adventurous music, inspiring theatre, intriguing poetry, dance and much more in four or five short performances. There is one common ingredient during all the nights: Ernst Glerum plays the piano in between the acts.
Tickets (12E) are for sale at www.bimhuis.nl

We are proud the great Ab Baars will play solo this thursday september 5. Ab is focussing on new solo material lately and will play various concerts this year.
Space is the Place and de Ruimte have good memories of Ab Baars. We are thinking of his solo at our old place, before an explosive concert of the Ethiopian dancers and musicians of Fendika. An what about his beautiful 60th birthday in de Ruimte, with a lot of musicians, food and love.
