Cube Microplex

[1] In July 2001 a serious fire originating in the New Mayflower kitchen destroyed most of the internal storeys and timber of 4 and 5 King Square.

Along with its cinema, music, performance and education programmes, the Cube hosts a wide range of local and international artists and community-initiated events.

[citation needed] Its anti-corporate ethos led to projects such as Kate Rich and Kayle Brandon's Cube-Cola, based on an open source cola recipe,[7] and Feral Trade which supplies various products to its bar using only personal social networks, including fair trade coffee from a farming cooperative in El Salvador.

[citation needed] The Cube has a history of setting up temporary cinemas in exotic locations, including a tin mine in Cornwall.

[10] The Cube Cinema was incorporated in 1998 as a company limited by guarantee, constituted as a democratically run worker's co-operative.
