SUMMARY:Scavenger Loops
DESCRIPTION:Scavenger Loops! Come join Patchbay and EPFC North Collectives during BC Culture Days 2025 for a fun and free exploration of the form of The Loop. \nWhat is a Scavenger Loop? A short (5-15 sec) story or sequence that cycles through beginning to end and is created from scavenged sources\, repurposing sound\, film\, images\, or text. It can be anything YOU make it! \nGuided by EPFC NORTH and PATCHBAY\, participants will have the opportunity to explore Elm Park using cameras\, audio recorders and an assortment of found objects that they will splice together in our LOOP LAB to create a short audiovisual work. EPFC NORTH will guide you into a world of analog filmmaking\, where you can learn to splice and dice 16mm footage into a new creation. PATCHBAY will mentor sound creation\, using field recording and other audio tricks to soundtrack your loop. \nLoops can be saved and taken home\, and will have the opportunity to be shared/displayed outside the fieldhouse for the duration of Culture Days! Bring a friend (or make one there!) and fuse music\, film\, and everything in between to create your very own (super) short story! \nAll ages welcome and no experience necessary! Supplies and materials are included. Feel free to bring materials of your own that you may be curious about! All’s fair in the name of The Loop. Please RSVP to let us know you’re coming.

SUMMARY:Sound Like A Sailor: Book Talk with Bruce Macdonald
DESCRIPTION:Join celebrated author\, sailor\, and artist R. Bruce Macdonald for an engaging evening exploring the colourful world of nautical language. In his latest book\, Sound Like A Sailor – The Book of Nautical Expressions\, Macdonald dives into the fascinating history behind the expressions we use every day—many of which have their roots at sea. \nDiscover how minding your p’s and q’s originates in how bartenders kept track of pints and quarts on sailors’ tabs\, how “going berserk” calls up images of shirtless Vikings\, and how the word “footloose” originally referred to an untethered sail flapping around like Kevin Bacon’s legs. Macdonald brings these phrases to life with captivating tales from the high seas and the rich tapestry of maritime history. \nMacdonald is the author of four acclaimed books\, over 200 published articles\, and a skilled artist whose works are held in collections across North America. Whether you’re a sailor\, history buff\, or simply love a good story\, this event promises insight\, laughter\, and a deeper appreciation for the language that has sailed through centuries. \nDon’t miss your chance to meet the author and get your copy signed!

SUMMARY:The Queen In Me
DESCRIPTION:re:Naissance presents The Queen In Me in Vancouver for its final performances —and hometown debut— Sept. 12-13 at SFU Goldcorp Centre for the Arts. Tickets on sale now! \nAfter selling out its world premiere along with Canadian Opera Company in June 2022\, Nightwood Theatre\, Amplified Opera and Theatre Gargantua are thrilled to be touring The Queen In Me by interdisciplinary artist Teiya Kasahara 笠原貞野 (they/he)\, accompanied by pianist David Eliakis (he/him). Combining comedy\, drama\, and opera\, this electrifying show explores the many ways that race\, gender\, and sexuality are policed in the opera industry. Through the lens of The Magic Flute’s iconic Queen of the Night\, the show reclaims space for the multitudes of women\, trans\, and non-binary individuals excluded from the stage\, daring to imagine bold new possibilities for the future of the art form and beyond. \nThis all-ages event features a range of dramatic arias from some of the world’s most well-loved operas: Puccini’s La Bohème\, Madama Butterfly\, Turandot\, and Manon Lescaut; Donizetti’s Lucia di Lammermoor; Verdi’s Macbeth and Rigoletto; R. Strauss’ Salome; and Mozart’s The Magic Flute.

SUMMARY:A Doll's House
DESCRIPTION:A seemingly perfect life unravels as Nora\, a charming wife and mother\, grapples with a shocking secret. Hidden debts and societal expectations force her to confront a harsh truth—she’s been living in a carefully crafted dollhouse\, yearning for freedom. In a daring move that shakes the very foundation of her world\, Nora makes a choice that will change everything. \nUpon its debut in 1879\, Ibsen’s play quickly generated both acclaim and controversy as one of the first dramatic works to meaningfully address several taboo subjects. Nearly 150 years later\, acclaimed playwright Amy Herzog brings relevance to a story that astonished audiences and brought forth a new era of theatre with a thrilling and compact contemporary adaptation.
