Punk Hits the Mediatheque

Thirty years ago Punk Rock conqured the nation. Far beyond the King's Road, Punk became part of life on every high street. It was the anarchic voice of Britain's rebellious youth and a thorn in the side of those busy enjoying the Queen's Silver Jubilee celebrations. The Mediatheque revives the spirit of punk with a collection that tells the story of the music, its fans and its effect on the UK. These films and television programmes are not just about the familiar scene in London. Away from the Capital the scene was vital and exciting too, and lasted a lot longer. So sit back and enjoy the sounds of Manchester, Belfast, Derry, London and Huddersfield... The Anarchy in the UK season runs in the Mediatheque from the 1st June 2007 and is FREE. Just turn up, make yourself at home and enjoy... The Mediatheque is open Tues 13:00 - 20:00, Wed - Sun 11:00 - 20:00
