Here’s a little taste of the show I’m working on for Theatre Conspiracy. Our workshop performances will happen in July at the Cultch and at the Richmond Int’l Film & Media Arts Festival.
The Cultch presents Extraction – YouTube.
“Through the biographies of four performers, the bilingual, documentary-style play Extraction looks at lives transformed by the rapid growth of Beijing and Fort McMurray, Chinese investment in Alberta’s tar sands and the evolution of Canada/China relations.
Extraction, directed by Amiel Gladstone, will run March 5-9, 2013, as part of the season at The Cultch in Vancouver. Theatre Conspiracy was presented with the annual Rio Tinto Alcan Performing Arts Award, a $60,000 prize that will support the development and production of Extraction.”
