This outdoor, alternate reality, physical theatre piece enters into creation in the spring of 2021. We will utilize the creative powers of professional choreographer, Josh McKinnon, Calgary director Janos Zeller, and the story writing duo Marisa Roggeveen and Stefanie Barnfather, to work with local actors to craft a story for youth around the themes of personal empowerment.
And we bring a little comic book superhero fun into the mix, because, yeah, of course. That's just awesome.
With our story told through combat and dance, original music underscoring the work and technology incorporated to engage our audiences, this 2021 summer weekend show promises to have audiences
asking themselves,
"When do I get to save the world?"
Music by Paul Grahame
