Homelessness issues in Calgary: |
We are truly excited to start the New Year with a great project organized by the City of Calgary Arts & Culture, in partnership with One Yellow Rabbit’s High Performance Rodeo, looking at issues of homelessness, created and performed by people who have experienced this in their own lives. The project will ask difficult questions seeking to address the complexity of homelessness as faced by the growing city of Calgary, where just like in Vancouver, homelessness is mounting to a crisis. Recruitment of participants is at its peak, and the 6-day process will culminate in 2 performances on January 22 and 23 at 8pm, at the Conoco Phillips Theatre, Glenbow Museum, 130 - 9 Avenue S.E. Calgary, AB. Admission is pay-what-you-can. To reserve call: 403.294.7411 or http://www.hprodeo.ca/2010/power-play |
