By Focus and Chaliwaté. Represented by Aurora Nova. Sometime in the near future... Humanity has failed to adapt to the new ecological reality. It is officially the end of the world as we know it. In a small building in the city centre, a family is about to spend their Sunday together, a family tradition. But the walls are shaking, strong winds and torrential rain rage outside and the storm has only just begun. Amidst this climatic chaos, the protagonists absurdly attempt to maintain a normal family life. Meanwhile, somewhere else on the planet, three travelling wildlife reporters are doing their best to document the apocalypse. They film, with what little equipment they have, Earth's last living species: three wild animals on the brink of extinction. Collective insanity, blindness to the bleeding obvious; it’s a rich subject for bittersweet clowning.  Between dreamlike fiction and factual reality, Dimanche paints a witty and tender portrait of humanity surprised by the uncontrollable forces of nature. Using lo-fi FX, miniature vehicles, puppetry, video, deadpan mime and ingeniously simple physical recreations of film language, Dimanche observes the ingenuity and stubbornness of humans as they try to preserve their day-to-day habits, going to absurd extremes to keep up a sense of normalcy despite the chaos of an ecological collapse. “Rarely is so much accomplished in so short a time. (They) make us laugh with their ingenuity and then break our hearts in two with their profound message.” – The Scotsman “A charming blend of fact and fiction with a vintage aesthetic and very current message.” – Edinburgh Guide Recommended for ages 9+.   PRICE TYPE ALL PRICES SUBJECT TO 15% HST Regular $38 Member $34 Young Audience $19 Supported $19 For full details about ticket pricing to our Spotlight Series shows, please click here.
