SUMMARY:Shortcuts
DESCRIPTION:DROP IN ANYTIME (ASL Interpretation)\nThe Bus Stop Theatre (2203 Gottingen St) + Facebook Live\n \nMasking is required to attend this event in person \nShortcuts are little acts of defiance. Despite what route we are told we should follow\, we use shortcuts to find our own way. \nIn this piece\, audience members’ favourite shortcuts are collected\, processed\, illustrated\, published\, and distributed by a trio of workers who open up the inside of their factory to us so we can see every detail of this long process to take a short cut. \nShortcuts\, loopholes and life hacks. We want ‘em! \nSubmit your own tips on how to get ahead on May 6th between 3:00 PM and 7:00PM\, either in person or by calling 902-404-0616 \n \nTHE TEAM\nDan Bray – The Courier\nColleen MacIsaac – The Technician / Creator\nMahya Tench – The Operator \nDan Bray – The Courier \nDan Bray (he/him) is an interdisciplinary theatre and visual artist\, currently living as the winter caretaker of a spooky mansion just outside Antigonish. He is the artistic director and founder of The Villains Theatre\, for which he has written\, adapted\, and directed many plays. Most recently\, his new plays Observatory Mansions and Hänsel und Gretel in: der Garten von Edible Horrors: a Terrible Parable have both been nominated for 2022 Robert Merritt awards for “Outstanding Adaptation by a Nova Scotian”; several of his original plays have also won him similar awards at the Halifax Fringe. He has had the good fortune of working with many of this province’s finest companies\, including Two Planks and a Passion\, Mulgrave Road\, Festival Antigonish\, Shakespeare by the Sea\, Eastern Front\, Phyllis Rising\, and Terra Novella. Dan has several new plays in development that are set to premiere shortly across Nova Scotia\, but they’re all under wraps for now…! www.brayowulf.ca \nColleen MacIsaac – The Technician / Creator \nColleen (they/she) is a multidisciplinary artist and current Master of Fine Arts candidate at NSCAD University.

SUMMARY:The Work We Do: An Animation Retrospective
DESCRIPTION:Live screening at The Bus Stop Theatre (2203 Gottingen St) \nONLINE TICKETS are on sale as of April 28th. Buy tickets \nMasking is required to attend this event in person \nPresented in partnership with the Animation Festival of Halifax (AFX) \nCraft. Labour. Practice. Drudgery. Vocation. We work every day\, sometimes with joy and a sense of fulfillment\, sometimes with loathing and a sense of alienation. We labour for pay\, for free\, or for barter; we exert ourselves for overlords\, for ourselves\, or for our communities. These animated films from across the country and across the decades reflect on the ups and downs of our experiences as beings who toil and strive. And what medium could be more fitting than the labour-intensive delight of animation?
