Feel the gravity.
Concealed within Vancouver's underbelly, lies a vibrant and bizarre underground theatre scene. Among those that inhabit this artistic underworld, the renegade Spectral Theatre Society has become notorious for being one of the strangest and most prolific theatre companies in town, having established its shadowy reputation as a maelstrom of raw creativity by bringing its own brand of sci-fi/horror-inspired theatre to the stage with surprisingly captivating results.
This spring Spectral Theatre boots up the 'Cosmic Codex' for the 3rd edition of Black Holes showcasing three original sci-fi scripts for the stage.
'M.Finis' written by W.T. Gibson and directed by W.T. Gibson and Simon C. Hussey; set in the near future, a refugee tanker fleeing political unrest in South America faces an unforeseen threat in the form of a mutated pathogen.
'Death Clock' written and directed by Kurtis Maguire, tells the tale of a space freighter pilot's emotional decent as time runs out for those on board a doomed vessel.
Finally, 'Tea for Tipler' written by Simon C. Hussey and directed by Justin Clow finds a couple awakening suddenly in an empty void and soon learning a curious truth about the nature of reality from an enigmatic stranger from beyond time and space.
Spectral Theatre Society has spent the last 9 years chipping away at the foundations of the Vancouver arts scene, producing original and imaginative theatrical works. 'Black Holes III' will mark the 4th production of Spectral Theatre's tenth season of producing original theatre, as it continues to aspire to take its brand of cult storytelling to the next level while remaining true to the spirit of experimentation and spectacle.
"Black Holes III" runs Wednesday thru Saturday nights for three weeks, starting Mar. 21st and closing Apr. 7th. Catch all the sci-fi goodness for $16 ($12 in advance) at Spectral Theatre Studio, 350 Powell (between
Dunlevy and Gore).
Doors at 7:30pm; show begins at 8pm. Wednesdays and
Thursdays are 2 for 1. Visit www.spectraltheatre.com or call 604.569.2013 for more information.
