1:11 moonwatching

Performance in What Is: heart(break) Series

A night dedicated to every yearning moonwatcher.

For our first night of What Is: heart(break), 1:11 moonwatching dives deep into luminescent moonlit midnight pools exploring the full scope of the human voice accompanied by electronics, foley, and found sounds diffusing the night’s air in 6.2 surround sound.

Ethereal, avant-garde sonic textures transport us into the realm of the moon, ruler of dreams and all wandering lovers. In the thick of pale light and dark shadows, 1:11 moonwatching’s experimental improvisation and classical vocalism melded with visuals by Gary Kirkham remind us of moons replete with wishes and yet-to-be’s and of fateful encounters under night’s embrace.

The performance will integrate a special water tank built by artist Midge L.


TICKETING & ACCESSIBILITY INFO


RUSH LINE & NO-SHOW POLICY

Sometimes our shows sell out, and that can be a bummer for folks who didn’t get a ticket. We’ve developed a new ticketing policy that applies to advance ticket holders and those wanting tickets to ensure a fair, transparent process for releasing additional tickets to a sold-out show. Please read our full policy here.

TICKETING
Our new ticket type invites you to Pay What You Can Afford (PWYCA) which means that you can choose an appropriate level and where possible, help to offset community members attending at a discounted rate. Levels are decided by you based upon your income and financial flexibility and are not verified at the door.

ACCESSIBILITY INFO
We regret that 918 Bathurst is not fully accessible due to stairs (two steps to the main entrance, a half-flight to enter the performance space, and a half-flight to access the washrooms and the Music Gallery office).
Masking and social distancing is strongly recommended for attendees who are able to and audience members are encouraged to arrive scent-free to the performance.
For additional questions or accessibility needs, please contact: matthew@musicgallery.org.

COVID POLICY
We strongly encourage masking at all times. For our full policy, click here

SAFER SPACE
We expect all attendees and community members to respect one another, and to respect the work that was created for you to explore. We will not tolerate harm or harmful behaviour of any kind. View our policy here.
