SUMMARY:The Frontliners - Vancouver Fringe Festival Presents
DESCRIPTION:Late January 2016\, Canada is in the throes of resettling the first wave of 25\,000 Syrian refugees. As three frontline workers battle Vancouver’s housing crisis to move families out of an East Van hotel\, their lives are brought together in ways that irreversibly shape them. \nAs the workers pull overtime hours to settle families against an impossible rental market\, they must also navigate a frenzy of journalists\, overly-keen do-gooder groups\, bureaucracy\, an impossible amount of donations\, angry landlords\, internet trolls\, and the hopes and wishes of families themselves\, all of which chaotically\, tragically\, and comedically intersect with the frontlines. \nThe Frontliners is the winner of Playwrights Theatre Centre’s New Play in Development Prize 2022. Also\, The Frontliners was the recipient of the national 2021 Playwrights Guild of Canada RBC Emerging Playwright Award\, Theatre BC’s 2020 Play of Special Merit Award\, and was the runner-up for the prestigious 2021 National Voaden Prize in Playwriting. \n“Captures\, with economy\, humour\, and heart\, the intense rollercoaster ride of working in a refugee placement agency during a housing crisis.” — Voaden Prize in Playwriting \nWritten by: Zahida Rahemtulla\nDirected by: Tanya Mathivanan

SUMMARY:The Cave
DESCRIPTION:Tomson Highway\, John Millard\, and Martha Ross’s apocalyptic cabaret\, The Cave\, comes to Vancouver with new and magical animations by Bruce Alcock. A group of animals flee from a vicious forest fire and seek refuge in Bear’s cave. Waiting out the inferno\, they reflect on their lives\, their lost garden\, and their impending doom. These unlikely and singed bedfellows share their stories and take comfort in their newfound community while the fire encroaches. \nAt times comical\, at times dramatic and tragic\, the evening is hosted by a wry and charming MC played by the composer\, Millard himself. The four performers sing seventeen stirring songs in English and Cree\, playing abstractions of Bear\, Moose\, Beaver\, Skunk\, Snake\, Wolf\, Crow\, and Fox. The cabaret band supports the style with wild\, beautiful\, poignant\, and entertaining orchestrations. \nPart Nightclub\, part Cave\, the show stimulates discussion about our planet’s precarious survival in the context of exceptional art\, offering an affirmative and cathartic experience. It is a sublime assemblage of multidisciplinary art\, showcasing what makes Canada astounding and unique on the international arts landscape. The Cave is as entertaining as its themes are timely and has audiences leaping to their feet.
