What happens
The Cube is an hourlong teleplay that first aired on the weekly anthology series NBC Experiment in Television in 1969. Produced and directed by puppeteer and filmmaker Jim Henson, it was one of several experiments with the live-action genre he conducted before focusing primarily on the Muppets and other puppet works. Screenplay coauthor Jerry Juhl subsequently served as the Muppets head writer for nearly four decades. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
