HIVE 3

Mar 11 – 14 and 17 - 20
at The Centre for Digital Media (577 Great Northern Way)

“The buzz was right – this is the hottest ticket in town… some absolutely dazzling little displays of theatrical innovations.” Peter Birnie, Vancouver Sun on HIVE 2

Twelve of Vancouver’s most adventurous theate companies create short installations in a party atmostphere. The audience experience is self-directed: choose when and where to see each site-specific show, then regroup for some theatrical social networking in the central lounge space. Past HIVE events have been wildly popular affairs with stimulating work on display, music, and dancing into the night.

HIVE 3 is sure to be an incomparable experience for Vancover audiences.

Continuing with our tradition of mentoring emerging theatre companies, this season Rumble will collaborate with the TigerMilk Collective on our Hive offering.

 

 

TigerMilk Collective is a company of women who are intensely aware of the commodification and packaging of identity in our pop-culture obsessed world. We tell our own collectively created stories and those of our heroes and insert our work into our fast-based urban environment.

 

 

 Hive 3 is co-produced by Boca del Lupo, Electric Company, Felix Culpa, Leaky Heaven Circus, neworldtheatre, Pi Theatre, Rumble Productions, The Only Animal, Radix, Theatre Replacement, Theatre Conspiracy and Victoria’s Theatre SKAM.

“A powerhouse of wit and hard-learned wisdom as performed by an actor in a rabbit suit."  - Realtime Australia


“Clark and I proves that some human communication is still beyond the bounds of copyright – even other people’s memories.” -  Toronto’s Eye Weekly

Clark and I Somewhere in Connecticut is one of the most notorious theatre pieces to come out of Vancouver in recent memory. In the summer of 2005, James Long salvaged seven photo albums and travel journals from an alley near his East Vancouver home. The collection, complete with detailed captions and letters, documents a family's history between 1950 and 1987, and includes everything from birth notices to a full eulogy for the archivist's Toy Pomeranian, Mandy. Two years later, a team of collaborators traveled in search of the origins of these books, and ran into some serious questions surrounding the legality and morality of working with found materials.

Clark and I uses fact, fiction, video, interviews, a rabbit suit and anything else required to make sense of these found materials and the many lives interrupted along the way.

a new generation of contemporary performance

Apr 7-17, 2010
at various venues in and around the Vancouver East Cultural Centre

Rumble’s emerging arts festival returns to showcase works created by some of this country’s most innovative new companies.

This season’s presentations include:

Cozy Catastrophe
created by Theatre Melee
in association with Rumble Productions

"…unabashedly, hilariously gross. This is a comedy for a traumatized world."- Alison Broverman & Ann McDougall, Plank Magazine

Horrific events are overwhelming the entirety of human civilization. Four strangers must decide what to do with what could be their final hours.  Should they pray?  Fight back?  Repopulate the earth?  Or just get to know each other a little better? Cozy Catastrophe is a dark comedy about ordinary folks bound together by extraordinary circumstance.

Written by Courtenay Dobbie, Craig Hall, Andrew McNee, Erin Mathews, Michael Rinaldi and Juno Ruddell | Directed by Courtenay Dobbie & Craig Hall | Featuring Andrew McNee, Juno Ruddell, Erin Mathews and Michael Rinaldi | Sound Design by Michael Rinaldi | Fight Choreography by Kevin James

 

KISMET one to one hundred
created by The Chop Theatre
in association with Rumble Productions

"The Chop is probably the coolest of the younger generation of theatre companies in Vancouver." -Andrew Templeton, Plank Magazine

The Chop Theatre brings you their latest creation, KISMET one to one hundred.

Four artists set out across Canada to interview one hundred people, ages 1 through 100, about their experiences and beliefs around fate and destiny. What they discovered on the road – a myriad of personal stories of mystery, joy and endurance – becomes the anchor for a fascinating and moving show that blends the verbatim interviews with the imagination of the travelers.

Written by Anita Rochon, Emelia Symington Fedy, Hazel Venzon and Daryl King |  Directed by Anita Rochon | Featuring Emelia Symington, Hazel Venzon and Daryl King | Dramaturgy by Camille Gingras | Visual Design by Drew Facey | Lighting Design by Gina Scherr | Sound Design by Antoine Bédard

 

I’m So Close It’s Not Even Funny
created by Why Not Theatre
in association with Toronto’s Theatre Centre

“This show made me laugh, it made me cry and it made me think. I’m So Close It’s Not Even Funny is filled with controlled chaos, wonderful physicality, clever comedy, emotional poignancy and a sense of reality and grounding that only comes from experienced and talented performers. Brilliant." - M. John Kennedy, Plank Magazine

**Winner of the SPOTLIGHT AWARD at the Summerworks Theatre Festival**

Bob, inspired by Stephen Hawking, seeks to discover how time began and when it will end. Consumed by his research, he misses his own funeral. Stella, driven by an obsession with polar bears and their quickly fading habitat, leaves for the North Pole while her husband waits for her online. As they look to the stars for answers, the earth shivers, snowflakes are motionless and we die with laughter.

Written by Nicolas Billon, Ravi Jain, Katrina Bugaj and Troels Hagen Findsen | Featuring Ravi Jain, Katrina Bugaj and Troels Hagen Findsen | Dramaturgy by Jennifer Tarver | Design by Trevor Schwellnus, Jamie Nesbitt, Gina Scherr, Mark Huang and Kelsey Hart
