BOOM in Montreal: "An explosion of sound, vision and song!"

Friday, March 25, 2016

"For almost two hours, Miller powers through 25 years and some hundred voices… All the while he perfectly calibrates his performance with a truly dazzling cascade of imagery... A fascinating, kaleidoscopic overview of an era... I was mesmerized!" (Jim Burke, Montreal Gazette)

BOOM, the most presented new work in Canada, explodes into the Segal Centre from March 20th - April 10th, 2016. After runs in Toronto, London, Victoria, Edmonton, Whitehorse, Halifax, Markham, Vancouver and Ottawa, the Kidoons/WYRD multimedia show finally comes to Montreal, the hometown of its creator, director and performer Rick Miller.
For 3 weeks, we'll be BOOMing onstage, and building online partnerships with local organizations who connect to our themes of history, culture, technology and ecology. We're also proud to continue our ongoing outreach campaign: "Your Stories". After our post-show talkbacks, we record short stories from audience members, and add them to an ever-expanding tapestry of tales that help connect us together as Canadians at encyclopediacanada.com. If you have a story to share, you can do it here.
