Imagine Picasso: the Immersive Exhibition

Vancouver Convention Centre (East Building) for a limited run
Pablo Picasso (1881-1973), the quintessential experimenter, would love this show. He would be there – probably in his trademark baggy shorts with a beautiful much younger woman on his arm – revelling in more than 200 of his paintings projected room-size over the nine, huge, origami-inspired surfaces as well as the floors and walls of Vancouver Convention Centre’s East Building.

Wakey, Wakey

At Pacific Theatre until October 23, 2021
“I knew I’d get old. I just didn’t think it would happen this soon.” That’s not a line from Will Eno’s play Wakey, Wakey but that pithy line was triggered in me by this play which, in many ways, is more a rumination on life and death than a play per se.
