## GO OUT WITH THE GUYS 

### The Theory Of Colour At Fitz's Bar 

  

 

Fitz’s Bar at the swanky Kimpton Fitzroy London hotel has created a multi-sensory experience around its new cocktail menu. Inspired by Dutch artist Jan Davidsz de Heem’s ‘Vase of Flowers’, The Theory of Colour invites guests to choose their favourite piece of art in the bar then illuminate the hidden meaning behind their selection with a UV light pen. This will unlock a cocktail menu which includes 14 drinks inspired by de Heem. You can also order bar snacks like truffle fries, rock oysters with tabasco and quail scotch eggs.

## HIT THE CINEMA 

### A-ha: The Movie 

  

 

A documentary about Norwegian synth-poppers A-ha hits the big screen this weekend. It features unreleased footage of the band during their heyday in the 80s, with interviews from members Pål Waaktaar-Savoy, Magne Furuholmen and Morten Harke. Probably best known for their hit ‘Take On Me’ (and its trippy music video) the band have sold over 50m records worldwide. A timely release, the doc coincides with the band’s UK tour at the end of May.

*Out on 21st May*
