A lineup. Comedians and the unexpected. Ubuntu Comedy Night is a bi-monthly stand-up event held in the intimate setting of Ubuntu. The concept? A mystery lineup. The lineup remains a secret until the show begins. At each event, 4 to 6 local and/or international comedians—both newcomers and seasoned performers—take the stage one after another to share their world with you, along with their best and worst jokes. Here, there’s no set program to follow: every night is different. Some come to hone their material, others to test new ideas, and still others simply to set the house on fire. One thing is certain: you won’t know who you’ll be seeing until the show begins. Please note: No seats will be reserved within 10 minutes of the show’s start. Want to get on stage? Want to test your jokes in front of a real audience? Message us directly on Instagram: @crash.test.comedy Come for the unknown. Stay for the jokes. ???????????????????????????????????????????

Documentary: Volcanoes of the Caribbean (52 min) Running time: 52' The film "Volcanoes of the Caribbean" provides a detailed analysis of the May 8, 1902, eruption that destroyed the town of Saint-Pierre in Martinique and the 1995 eruptive crisis on the island of Montserrat. This film shows how, thanks to the work of Professor Alfred Lacroix, a concept was born: that of a pyroclastic flow and a Peléan eruption. If you have trouble visualizing what a pyroclastic flow is, imagining its destructive power, and understanding why nearly 30,000 people were killed in Saint-Pierre in less than 3 minutes on May 8, 1902... Come see the screening of the documentary film. (Volcanoes of the Caribbean) This film explores volcanic activity in the Lesser Antilles arc, focusing on major events in the history of each island’s volcanoes, the eruption of Mount Pelée on May 8, 1902, and that of La Soufrière on Montserrat in 1995. - In the first part, the reconstruction of the May 8, 1902, disaster is very well explained through a combination of archival footage and computer-generated imagery. The film’s value lies in the fact that it addresses various aspects—political, geographical, and geological—providing a comprehensive view of this disaster and offering historical and scientific insights. - In the second part: Volcanic activity on other Caribbean islands is discussed, with explanations focusing in particular on Montserrat’s Soufrière, Kick’m Jenny, and Guadeloupe’s Soufrière... Documentary "Earthquakes and Tsunamis" Produced by "L'esprit sorcier" Why, when, and how does the earth shake? Documentary “Inside Volcanoes” Produced by “L’esprit sorcier” How are volcanoes formed, where are they found, and should we be afraid of them? Hours of Operation Open to the public Tuesday through Sunday from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. (last admission at 4:00 PM). Open on the following holidays: Easter Sunday, Victory Day (May 8), Ascension Thursday, Pentecost Sunday, Bastille Day (July 14), Assumption, August 15; Armistice Day, November 11.
