Event Information
Description
Boca del Lupo's Micro Performance Series, in partnership with the Vancouver Writers Fest presents
RED PHONE
October 19 - 23, 2016 at The Fishbowl on Granville Island
Conceived by Sherry Yoon and designed by Jay Dodge with technology by Carey Dodge, Red Phone is a conversation that you will not soon forget. Part theatre show and part social intervention, Red Phone is an audience-to-audience performance that utilizes the intimacy of a phone call and the technology of a teleprompter to introduce strangers to each other. The two audience members are then guided through a conversation about life, art and their surroundings.
The experience takes place between two beautifully-crafted, fully enclosed phone booths outfitted with a curly corded, red phone and an integrated teleprompter. An operator prompts two participants to engage in a conversation written by a Canadian playwright. Red Phone is a one-of-a-kind performance where anyone can engage in some of the most urgent, touching and uplifting conversations that prominent Canadian writers think we should all be having.
