SUMMARY:The Effect
DESCRIPTION:Is it love or just chemical? A dark\, razor-sharp thriller by Emmy-winning writer of Succession\, Lucy Prebble. The Effect dives into the chemical nature of love through the lens of a clinical drug trial. Connie and Tristan enter a study for a new dopamine-regulating antidepressant. They fall in love. Or do they? As dosages rise\, desire and obsession intensify\, and the boundary between genuine emotion and altered chemistry begins to blur. This provocative and timely co-production between Rumble Theatre and ITSAZOO Productions asks: If you can’t trust your heart and you can’t trust your mind—what’s left? \nRumble and ITSAZOO Productions unite for a thrilling production of Lucy Prebble’s The Effect\, from November 7 to 22\, 2025\, at Progress Lab (1422 William Street) in Vancouver. This provocative\, intimate thriller drops audiences inside a clinical trial where two volunteers test a dopamine-regulating drug under observation; as doses rise and attraction intensifies\, the line between authentic feeling and chemical manipulation blurs. \nTickets from $25 are available at rumble.org.

SUMMARY:Faye's Room
DESCRIPTION:Faye’s Room is the story of Faye Murphy\, an autistic lesbian who works at a queer cafe… and happens to have the power to summon and hide in a magical sensory room at will. When she becomes trapped in this room with her least favourite co-worker\, son of the founder and token heterosexual Chase McLure\, an unlikely bond forms\, and the two find themselves with a bit more in common than they had thought. \n“Faye’s Room marks a long list of firsts for us\,” says Co-Artistic Director\, Adam Grant Warren. “It’s our first play as Glitch Theatre\, and the first mainstage production we’ve put up since the pandemic. It’s Alex’s first produced work\, and the first time we’ve backed a D/disability-identified playwright with a team of a majority of neurodiverse directors\, designers\, and cast. That kind of representation – artists with lived experience of D/disability leading from multiple key positions and embedding access practice in the creative process – that’s the heart of Glitch Theatre. And Faye’s Room felt like the perfect opportunity to really embody that value right out of the gate.” \nFaye’s Room is a moving exploration of neurodivergent solidarity\, intergenerational bonds\, and internalized ableism. \nAbout Glitch Theatre: \nGlitch Theatre\, formerly known as Realwheels Theatre\, is thrilled to share its evolution with audiences and the national theatre community. Embracing a name that captures the moment of transformation\, Glitch Theatre is committed to creating works that challenge expectation\, spark innovation\, and invite new perspectives. \n

SUMMARY:Vitality: Iconic Images\, Hidden Stories

A new exhibit reopening the Chinatown Storytelling Center\, Vitality brings together a striking selection of Herzog’s photographs\, capturing daily life in Chinatown\, Strathcona\, and along historic Hastings St. from the 1950s to 1970s.

SUMMARY:The Polygon Gallery: Lee Miller: A Photographer at Work (1932–1945)
DESCRIPTION:The Polygon Gallery presents the West Coast premiere of Lee Miller: A Photographer at Work (1932–1945) from Nov. 7\, 2025–Feb. 1\, 2026. This survey exhibition showcases more than 100 images taken during the renowned American photographer’s most intense and productive period: from her time as a highly sought-after studio portraitist\, to a commercial photographer for cosmetics\, then her time as the World War II correspondent for the British edition of Vogue. The collection of images reveal the behind-the-scenes dynamics of an artist managing a photography career amid the myriad challenges facing professional women at the time. Though Miller was previously best known for her collaboration with Man Ray and her close ties to the 1920s Surrealist movement\, the exhibition offers a richly layered\, complex portrait of this important artist and celebrated photojournalist. Lee Miller: A Photographer at Work (1932–1945) was organised in collaboration with the Lee Miller Archives (England)\, and was previously presented during Les Rencontres d’Arles (France) and at The Image Centre (Toronto). \nContent note: The exhibition features war photography\, including images Miller took of the liberation of the Dachau and Buchenwald concentration camps. \nAdmission to The Polygon Gallery is by donation\, courtesy of BMO Financial Group.

SUMMARY:Between Breaths | Firehall Arts Centre
DESCRIPTION:The Firehall Arts Centre is proud to present the Western Canadian premiere of Between Breaths from Wednesday\, November 12 to Sunday\, November 23\, 2025. \nInspired by a true story\, Between Breaths is a profound play that sails through the extraordinary life of Dr. Jon Lien – known to many as “The Whale Man” – who devoted his career to saving whales trapped in fishing nets off the coast of Newfoundland. Over the years\, he rescued more than 500 whales\, bridging the divide between science and the local fishing community with empathy and respect. But as the play traces Dr. Lien’s legacy\, it also reveals his most personal struggle: a battle with dementia that slowly threatened the very core of his identity. \nSet to a hauntingly beautiful live score by celebrated Newfoundland indie folk trio The Once\, Between Breaths is a powerful meditation on memory\, loss\, and the deep connections that endure even as everything else fades. It is a play about hope\, endings\, and the human spirit’s quiet resistance against disintegration.

SUMMARY:The Mush Hole
DESCRIPTION:The Cultch & Urban Ink present: The Mush Hole \nA theatrical dance performance about Canada’s first Indian residential school\, The Mohawk Institute\, a.k.a. The Mush Hole. From 1828 to 1970\, State and Church systems worked to sever Indigenous children from their families\, culture\, and language. Through the eyes of two generations of Survivors\, The Mush Hole evokes the raw\, unflinching realities of this legacy. \nFeaturing a powerhouse all-Indigenous cast\, the performance fuses visceral movement\, haunting cinematic imagery\, and a stirring original score to summon the experiences still held within the school’s bricks and mortar. Inspired by Survivors’ testimonials\, The Mush Hole is not only a reckoning\, it’s a radiant story of resistance\, remembrance\, and the courage to find light in even the darkest places. \n“The Mush Hole is a story about hope and finding light in dark places\, as much as it speaks to intergenerational trauma\, it screams resilience. Every single element represented on stage comes from survivors sharing their experiences with us” —Santee Smith; Creator\, Director\, and Performer \nPresented as part of TRANSFORM Festival 2025. \nFor more information and tickets\, visit thecultch.com/event/the-mush-hole
