5 Tips for Attending Lost Words

5 Tips for Attending Lost Words: RELIGION Edition and making it THE BEST Time Ever

 

  1. Reserve a table! If you’re considering grabbing dinner at The Emerald during the show, why not reserve a table so you can enjoy your meal in comfort? Even Beyonce looks awkward while trying to eat on her lap (and we can’t guarantee that Jay Z will be there to assist you).

We’ve almost finished our first week of workshops of It’s All Over, Orwell at the Shadbolt Centre for the Arts in Burnaby. It’s been a lot of fun working with actors Nneka Croal and Brett Harris. We’re having a conversation with George Orwell. Theatre Conspiracy’s Tim Carlson is the medium.

The first few days have been about exploring some text Tim brought into the room. The following is a snippet of dialogue spoken by characters One and Two.
