SUMMARY:Cat On a Hot Tin Roof + The Belco Jazz Band | Hot Summer Nights at the NFSA
DESCRIPTION:THE BELCO JAZZ BAND\n6 pm | Live Music \nCAT ON A HOT TIN ROOF\n8 pm | Screening \nSettle in from 6 pm as The Belco Jazz Band takes the stage for a live performance in the NFSA heritage courtyard. Enjoy local wines\, summer cocktails and charcuterie\, available for purchase onsite from Dom’s deli & bar. Then head into Arc Cinema at 8 pm for a screening of Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. \nABOUT CAT ON A HOT TIN ROOF\n1958 | DCP | USA | D: Richard Brooks \nA washed-up\, alcoholic ex-football star (Paul Newman) and his frustrated wife (Elizabeth Taylor) navigate lies\, repressed desire and shame on a plantation in the US South. \nNominated for six Oscars\, the film adaptation of Tennessee Williams’ classic play has been criticised for denying its own central theme – the denial of sexuality. For modern audiences\, the added layer of self-censorship in the film enhances the viewing experience. \n‘Homosexuality is everywhere and nowhere in Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. And perhaps that unspokenness is realer than the play.’ – The Guardian \nAvailable as a 4-film Tennessee Williams Spotlight pass with Suddenly\, Last Summer\, A Streetcar Named Desire\, and The Night of the Iguana. Learn more. \nABOUT THE BELCO JAZZ BAND\nThe Belco Jazz Band is a Canberra-based ensemble led by pianist Matt Dennett\, featuring some of the city’s finest jazz instrumentalists. Tracing a century of jazz history — from the smoky swing of the 1920s to soulful blues and vibrant original works — the trio performs with timeless groove\, style\, and creative flair. A crowd favourite among local swing dancers\, the band brings joyful energy and authentic connection to every performance. \nABOUT HOT SUMMER NIGHTS\nHot Summer Nights returns for its second year with a hand-picked selection of the hottest live music acts\, curated with films in a single-ticket experience to set the perfect summer vibe. Every Friday and Saturday between January 9 and February 14\, join us in the NFSA heritage courtyard for live music followed by classic cinema.
