The Cultch - Vancouver Theatre, Dance and Music

Vancouver live theatre: Waiting for Godot

Vancouver live theatre: Waiting for Godot from Blackbird Theatre, written by Samuel Beckett, December 27 to January 21, 2011 presented by The Cultch (Vancouver East Cultural Centre).

Vancouver live theatre: No. 2

Fast-moving and tender, No. 2 features Madeleine Sami portraying all nine characters in a virtuosic solo performance for which she was awarded the Chapman Tripp New Zealand Theatre Award for Outstanding Performance.

Vancouver Live Theatre: New Animal

New Animal is a multi-media work created with, and specifically for, The 605 Collective. The dance exploits the supreme versatility of five dancers - Lisa Gelley, Shay Kuebler, Josh Martin, Dave Raymond and Amber Funk-Barton. Suffused with raw, unbridled energy, groove, ludic interaction and a hunger for movement, the performers reclaim their animal bodies as a means of becoming fully human. New Animal is set to an eclectic soundtrack assembled and manipulated by Roger Tellier-Craig, and features film elements by Dana Gingras and Yannick Grandmont with lighting designed by Robert Sondergaard.

Vancouver Live Theatre: The Silicone Diaries

The Silicone Diaries is Nina Arsenault's tour de force account of her transition from an awkward man into a jaw dropping silicone bombshell, a process that spanned eight years, sixty surgical procedures and a lifetime of preparation. Blurring the lines between fake and real and playing with the tension between society’s presumed desire for authenticity and its demonstrated preference for the artificial, The Silicone Diaries provides us with a peek into the personal obsessions of those who are driven to transform their bodies. At the same time, it is a frank exploration of the contradictions associated with the quest for beauty.

Vancouver Live Theatre: Hunchback

From the award-winning creators of Nevermore and Frankenstein. A darkly romantic musical set amid the buttresses and shadows of Notre Dame Cathedral, Hunchback tells the tale of a tormented priest, a beautiful dancer and the deformed bell ringer Quasimodo. Swept up in a vortex of lust, fear and the desire to control a destiny that will ultimately destroy them all, they are consumed by love in its most potent, merciless and obsessive form. This surprising new take on Victor Hugo’s famous story comes from the multi-award-winning creative team at Catalyst Theatre.
