Music, dance, theatre and technology meet in Vancouver's newest theatre in the heart of downtown. Three extraordinary premieres by some of Canada's top artists are on the program for this spectacular event.
One of Canada’s most original voices, Rudolf Komorous, has composed The Ruse for the Turning Point Ensemble, his first major new work in many years. Cut Flowers, a monodrama by poetic composer Linda Caitlin Smith, marks the return of soprano Phoebe MacRae and stage director Penelope Stella in a meditation on the thoughts and feelings of Victorian poet Elizabeth Barrett Browning.
Imprint is a daring, site-specific work for dancers, large music ensemble and telepresence technology. It explores the resonance of cultural artifacts and stories as transmitted from place-to-place, time-to-time, and person-to-person. Music by Owen Underhill is paired with Henry Daniel's spectacular combination of modern technology and movement.
