Friday in Toronto: Summerworks presents Evening Hymns and Fiver

Evening Hymns collaborate with projection artist, performer and puppeteer Sean Frey to create an evolving space for the release of their new record, Spectral Dusk. A study of loss, pain, and hope, Spectral Dusk finds lead singer, Jonas Bonnetta dealing, through music, with the loss of his father three years ago. Spectral Dusk, a small retreat from the world, is a record to be experienced more than listened to.

Summerworks presents: Terminus

We are definitely looking forward to this one.

The company behind last year’s smash hit Mr. Marmalade teams up with Maev Beaty to present the Canadian premiere of Terminus. A mother with a heavy conscience, a disembodied soul looking for love and a dangerous loner with a passion for Bette Middler converge in this lyrical Irish spoken-word ballad.

Warning: This production contains words that rhyme and scan in convenient and pleasing ways. It also contains mature language (though spoken in an Irish slang dialect, so you may not pick up on it) and mature themes. Also darkness. This production is not suitable for children (though we promise to do one that is sometime soon!).

Make sure you check out Terminus on one of these dates at the Factory Theatre Mainspace

Summerworks presents: HUFF

Written & Performed by Cliff Cardinal, starting tomorrow (Friday at the Theatre Centre) in Toronto, Ontario is HUFF.  Here's everything you need to know:

Huff is a new play by Cliff Cardinal about the wondrous lives of Wind and his brothers, caught in a torrent of solvent abuse and struggling to cope with the death of their mother. Wind's fantastic gas-induced dream-world bleeds into his haunting reality as he's preyed on by the Trickster through the hallways at school, the abandoned motel he loves more than home, and through his own fragile psyche.

Wrought with dark humor, and vivid imagery Huff weaves a violent, spellbinding tale. Modern pace mixed with First Nation's mythic meets biting stand-up. Video games and trickster collide and Huff conjures a heartbreaking yet hopeful search for love.

Director | Karin Randoja
Production Design | Elizabeth Kantor
