SUMMARY:This Is How We Got Here
DESCRIPTION:The Firehall is proud to produce and present Keith Barker’s This Is How We Got Here from Saturday\, April 13 to Sunday\, April 28. \nSimultaneously heartbreaking and heartwarming\, This Is How We Got Here follows a close-knit family still dealing with the lingering trauma of an unexpected loss. A mother\, father\, aunt\, and uncle must learn how to move forward after their shared grief as they re-learn how to interact with one another through humour\, forgiveness\, and love. \nIt has been a year since Paul and Lucille’s son Craig died by suicide\, and their once-solid family bonds are starting to break down. While the now-separated couple tries to honour their son\, Lucille’s sister Liset and her husband Jim refuse to discuss their nephew. The ties that keep the four together as sisters\, best friends\, and spouses are strained by grief and guilt… until a visit from a fox changes everything. \n“When my eye caught the cover of this newly published play in 2017\, I felt compelled to read it as I had recently had a ‘fox’ experience\, different from this but also very meaningful\,” says Firehall Arts Centre’s Artistic Producer\, Donna Spencer. “Once I started to read it\, I knew it was a play for Firehall audiences\, and I appreciated how Keith had shaped this powerful story\, blending humour with grief\, friendship with raw pain\, and the power of the natural world.” \nKeith Barker is a member of the Métis Nation of Ontario. He is a playwright\, actor\, and director from Northwestern Ontario. Keith is also the Director of the Foerster Bernstein New Play Development Program at the Stratford Festival\, and the former Artistic Director at Native Earth Performing Arts in Toronto. He is the recipient of the Dora Mavor Moore Award and the Playwrights Guild’s Carol Bolt Award for Best New Play. Keith received a Saskatchewan and Area Theatre Award for Excellence in Playwriting for his play\, The Hours That Remain\, as well as a Yukon Arts Award for Best Art for Social Change. He was a finalist for the Governor General’s Award for English Drama for This Is How We Got Here.

SUMMARY:The Starling Effect
DESCRIPTION:Local indie-rock band debuts its latest single\, with guests Hotel Empress and Pontiac. \nDoors at 8 pm/music starts at 9 pm. No cover charge.\n—\nAllan MacInnis of the Georgia Straight described THE STARLING EFFECTs first EP as “psychedelic” and “shoegazey”\, observing that “the guitars on the album move in a dreamlike\, narcotized swirl that would make them worthy of a Gregg Araki soundtrack” and that “it all rocks out a bit more when the band plays live”.\nThat last observation was certainly true\, but the band’s intention upon entering Little Red Sounds in January was to capture the full range of its sound\, from the dreamy swirls to the propulsive crunch. Working with the studio’s owner and resident recording wizard\, Felix Fung\, the Starling Effect emerged with its first new material in over four years. This show marks the official release of these long-in-the-works new songs.\n—\nHOTEL EMPRESS’s sonic blueprint has its roots in the world of ripping guitar riffs\, shimmering vintage synths\, and tightly-woven melodies. Roots that defined an era and gave birth to many of their influences like The Pixies\, The Breeders\, and early Radiohead.\nA band characterized by a collision of styles (and personalities)\, their sounds bleed together into a vision of indie synth-rock that’s both light and dark\, tender and fiery. Something you can dance to and something you can rage to in the twilight hours of the night.\n—\nPONTIAC marks a new era for David Cotton of Vancouver scene stalwarts Seven Nines and Tens\, but still features some of his signature songwriting tricks ie understatedly intelligent\, cerebral\, and memorable tunes.\nWith this new project\, Cotton simply aims to deliver a less arcane\, idiosyncratic sound which aligns stylistically with genres he has loved his entire career: indie rock\, progressive blues\, classic rock\, and post punk.\nPontiac’s debut record “Hard Knox” was released January 14\, 2024\, with a limited edition cassette released by Coup Sur Coup records to mark the occasion.

SUMMARY:Vancouver Opera presents CARMEN
DESCRIPTION:Concluding the season is one of the most beloved and widely performed works in operatic history\, Carmen by Georges Bizet. \nThe blood of passion surges and spills in one of the most beloved and widely performed works in operatic history. Animated by an all-star cast and audacious stagecraft\, the conflicting worlds and failed romance of the sensual\, rebellious Carmen and the possessive military man Don José absolutely burst off the stage. \nFrom the stirring Toreador Song to the tauntingly seductive aria Habanera\, Georges Bizet’s enduring and richly coloured melodies transcend the hummable; they don’t just gesture towards emotions\, they embody the many shapes and shades of passion\, from infatuation to violent jealousy.

And Johnson\, Big Sugar’s Texas-based producer and guitarist\, on nearly everything else. Plus\, Hall’s pal Jonas Shandel also helped write the songs. \nHarpoonist is ready. There’s a new track ready to be released called “Good People.” The made-in-Texas record is titled “Did We Come Here to Dance.” Due in February on Tonic Records label and all the streaming services. \nOh\, and you almost certainly will dance.
