Event Information
Description
Nomadic Tempest
A Climatopian Spectacle
by Caravan Stage Company
Presented by the City of Vancouver
The Caravan returns to BC after a 30 year world tour aboard the Company's 90 foot Tall Ship, Amara Zee, a replica of a Thames River Sailing Barge bringing their original operatic spectacle, Nomadic Tempest to Vancouver.
Gather at the shore of South East False Creek just east of the Cambie St. Bridge for a free, all ages (10 years of age +) show performed on a 90-foot long Tall Ship. Nomadic Tempest is a mythical saga of monarch migrants—embodied by aerial artists—searching for refuge on a drowned planet.
Before attending the show please consider the following:
-
The show is not recommended for audiences younger than 10 years of age due to language
-
Nomadic Tempest is an experimental rock opera and, while it includes aerial performers, the performance is not a circus acrobat show.
