Event Description:

By BRUCE RUDDELL
Directed by DENNIS GARNHUM
Starring JOHN MANN and TOM JACKSON
In Co-production with the Playhouse Theatre Company (Vancouver)
World Premiere – Rock Musical Spectacle
Part of the Vancouver 2010 Cultural Olympiad
Hidden along the remote shores of the Queen Charlotte Islands, mysterious totem poles stand silent and forgotten. When a team of museum anthropologists embark on a controversial mission to remove the poles in the 1950’s, one man’s obsession leads him on a personal journey to where the spirit lives. Based on actual events, this rock-inspired musical mixes ancient Haida tradition with modern theatricality to create a breathtaking story of loss and discovery.

We are proud to be premiering this musical as part of the Olympic celebrations.  Starring John Mann, of Spirit of the West fame, this is a magical celebration of Haida culture. Combining modern sounds with traditional Haida songs, this original musical is the heart of our season.  - Dennis
