    I’d like to add one more event to the list!

    Surreal is premiering on June 28th.

    Surreal is an interactive, roaming theatre experience that takes place in the backstreets and alleys of Gastown. Audience members follow the story and characters wherever it takes them. At certain points the audience must engage directly with the characters to help progress the story, creating a wholly engaging experience.
