Cabaret up front

Item is a video work created in 1984 of a night performance at Dartmouth’s Treasure Cove Lounge. Camera by Liz MacDougall, sound David Barteaux and editing by Dan Lander. Documented with a single shot, not always the most ideal conditions, and roughlyedited, the overall look of the event is nonetheless quite good.
