A raging storm has taken the lives of many, including three at a climate protest. Observed by a ghostly figure, will this Spirit Guide invoke the deal that could give us the chance to change everything? You can inspire positive change, or watch the world implode. Which do you choose?
Written and directed by Valerie Methot with a creative team of diverse youth and artists, Our Last Tree stands in a world where youth bring us the news, alerting us to the urgency to save our planet and each other. A stunning interconnection of artistry, humanity and care, this apocalyptic theatre production symbolizes the fate of this world with one special tree whose branches entwine with lifelines of countless hands.
Youth artists include: Ayden Ramzan, Alastair Hamann, Arlo Lim, Ariyan Ramzan, Phoenix Lee, Skyler Lee, Vienna Wu, Camille Kang, Jen Belen, Charli Kemper-Bird, Ivy Pina, Von Lochan, Victor Chow, Ryleigh Pascua, Aaryaki Parsekar, Hannah Wong, and Greta Bradsher.
Celebrating its 25th anniversary season, Some Assembly Theatre Company’s collaborations between youth and professional artists aim to promote awareness, wellness, dialogue, and positive social change around social issues and issues faced by youth. The company is the recipient of the City of Vancouver Youth Award for outstanding contribution to the youth community and the Deryck Thomson Award for exceptional contribution to community building and well-being.
