The work invites audiences to see the Massey Theatre in a new way, overturning expectations and challenging the stability of perception in the 21st Century.
Anamnesis explores the memories of two protagonists. Their memories and perspectives are identified using two colour streams, yellow for one and blue for the other. While watching the series of memories unfold, it is made clearer how our own perceptions and memories shape our individual experiences.
Broken Picture Artists consist of 14 multi-disciplinary performing arts students currently enrolled in the Bachelor of Performing Arts program, run jointly by Capilano University and Douglas College.
Anamnesis is an unconventional piece of theatre. At the beginning of the show, the audience will be escorted through different areas of the Massey and finally be led on stage where they will take their seats. Please note that some areas are not accessible for audience members with mobility challenges.
If you enjoy interdisciplinary arts, there are two opportunities to experience Anamnesis.
