The Other Rodeo

January 5, 2012

Giddy-up Calgary. One Yellow Rabbits High
Performance Rodeo
starts today and goes to the end of the month with
its parade of avante garde theatre, music and art shows that will shock
and awe and make you glad you got out of the house this chilly January.
Here are five performances to look for.


Lucha Vavoom

Masked Mexican wrestlers perform acrobatics
in matches that pit good against evil. In between, burlesque performers
take to the bullpen.


Taking Shakespeare

One Yellow Rabbits original theatre
production brings a professor, a student and William Shakespeare
together to learn about comedy, tragedy and human understanding.


Site-Specific Spectacular

Join a tour and follow
acrobats, dancers and more as they perform on rooftops and in freight
elevators around the Calgary Tower and the Epcor Centre.


Limelight

French architect Charles Blanc and British
artist Tristan Surtees replace two lights on Olympic Plaza with theatre
lights giving passerbys get a chance to step into the light and perform.


Laurie Anderson

The experimental performance artist
takes a turn as artist-in-residence hosting a talk, dinner, multimedia
art show and interactive tour of Cantos.
