Tangle in the Jungle

Overview

We’ve all heard of ‘Rumble in the Jungle’ but that pales in comparison to the tangle that’s about to happen in the Brisbane jungle this Friday night.

Presented by community cultural development organisation Contact Inc., Tangle in the Jungle is a celebration of the performance-based work Contact Inc. has done with diverse communities throughout 2011.

The event features the cutting-edge dance crew *ALL STARS* who recently brought the house down when they performed at the Brisbane Powerhouse. There is also the Contact’s own Unison Choir, Southside Education’s dance/vogue crew Red Roses, Causus Circle Ensemble (with performers from Circa and Polytoxic) and the beautiful but edgy sounds of all-girl music act Beauty and the Beats. Hosted by the notorious Candy B (Poetry Slam 2011/ Australian Booty/ Who’s that Chik? /Sista She) and very special guest DJ Busty Beatz.

Contact Inc. is an incredible Brisbane community organisation that works with people of diverse ages, and from diverse social and cultural backgrounds. Through creative practice (from hip hop to visual arts to choirs) they support communities, particularly working with people affected by violence, vulnerability and marginalisation.

Tangle in the Jungle is a chance to see some of the outcomes of their amazing work, and to celebrate some of the amazingly talented people in this jungle.
