A follow-up to our Offscreen and Unexpected series from last year (which brought performances into lobbies and line-ups) we are delighted to present a new series of public performance works by Montreal and Vancouver-based artist coral Short. Designed to infuse your festival-going experience with a little bit of magic and spontaneity, Short has created a series of unique performances specifically for the Festival environment. Keep on the lookout for genderdeconstructing, community-driven, smart and witty creations when you least expect it. And the wolves? All we can say is they’re ready and waiting for you…
Check out our Opening Gala and Sexnoys parties to see her in action – otherwise, you never know where she’ll show up…
