SNAFU Society of Unexpected Spectacles A spicy puppet cabaret, hosted by a sassy grandma who keeps trying to steal the show. This beautifully twisted variety show is performed by Ingrid Hansen, who also puppeteers for Jim Henson Company’s Fraggle Rock. Watch behind-the-scenes as Hansen performs a live puppet film, animating cheeky vignettes in the palm of her hand and projecting them onto a huge screen.  Both live and magnified on screen, in cunningly angled cameras and mirrors, we see Hansen create characters from her own hands, fingers, tongue, in a saucy and jostling vaudeville of ‘stars’. Tiny stories emerge that celebrate the hilarious impossibility of being alive and having a body: these fragile bags of meat and bone carry us from place to place and allow us to laugh and snort and feel. SNAFU’s work has been compared to Wes Anderson and David Lynch, yet “hilarious, absurd and profoundly human.” (The Star Phoenix Newspaper).  Directed by Britt Small (premiere director of Ride the Cyclone), with costumes by JIMBO (winner of RuPaul’s Drag Race), performed by Ingrid Hansen (puppeteer for The Jim Henson Company’s Fraggle Rock and Sesame). This performance will be accompanied with ASL interpretation from Becky Schirato. “Utterly magical, insanely inventive, wickedly funny, BEAUTIFULLY TWISTED, and occasionally erotic! ★★★★★” - Free Press. “Surpassing the world of the weird, the zany antics of Epidermis Circus live in a universe of absolutely absurd. CRITIC’S CHOICE NYC. ★★★★★” - Jaycie Buben, All About Solo NY Please note, this show contains occasional use of strong language, depictions of violence, mature themes and subject matter. Intended for mature audiences ages 14+.    “Pay What You Will” is offered on select performances. Here’s how it works: – You still need a ticket. Book your seats in advance at tickets.theplayhouse.ca, by calling our box office at 458-8344, or visiting us at 686 Queen Street. – At the performance, we will provide an envelope and ask audience members to pay whatever amount they wish (based on their own individual experience) following the performance. You decide the price of your tickets! The objective of “Pay What You Will” is to increase access to our programs, and to encourage our patrons to take a chance on new and exciting performances.

Prenez part au voyage musical de Stephen Fearing, le nomade folk canadien qui a passé sa vie sur la route à peaufiner sa musique internationalement reconnue. Depuis ses années formatrices à Dublin jusqu’à sa vie sur la route avec Blackie and the Rodeo Kings, Fearing raconte son histoire en concert à travers ses textes émouvants et son brillant jeu de guitare. Fearing a sorti 10 albums solos avec la participation d’invités spéciaux, dont Bruce Cockburn, Margo Timmons, Rose Cousins, Richard Thompson, Shawn Colvin, et Sarah McLachlan. Lorsqu’il ne se trouve pas derrière un micro, il passe son temps à produire des albums, incluant celui de Suzie Vinnick, Happy Here, qui a été mis en nomination pour un Juno. Tout comme les invités sur ses albums, les nombreuses accolades qu’ils a reçues au fil des années témoignent du respect qu’il a acquis auprès de ses pairs, des présentateurs et de la critique. Sa passion du métier et son aptitude à séduire les publics se reflètent aussi dans ses multiples nominations aux JUNO et au Prix de la musique folk canadienne, et dans un circuit de tournée qui ne cesse de s’étendre à travers l’Amérique du Nord, au Royaume-Uni et en Europe. Pour son album Every Soul’s a Sailor en 2017, il s’est mérité le Worldwide Album of the Year remis par Blues & Roots Radio et fut nommé Chanteur contemporain de l’année au Prix de la musique folk canadienne. Ayant déménagé plusieurs fois dans sa vie et ayant passé d’innombrables mois sur la route, Fearing est un conteur doué et un véritable nomade musical capable de captiver tous les publics. « Être sur scène c’est ce qui me plait le plus, surtout quand l’adrénaline monte, » dit-il avec un grand sourire. « Les gens veulent s’évader et être transporté. Mes spectacles sont conçus exactement pour ça. »    CATÉGORIE DE PRIX TOUS LES DROITS SONT ASSUJETTIS À UNE TVH DE 15% Régulier 34 $ Membre 31 $ Jeune public 17 $ Accessible 17 $ Pour tous les détails sur les prix des billets de la Série pleins-feux, veuillez cliquer ici.
