Photo Flash: First Look at Tarragon & Volcano's World Premiere of Hannah Moscovitch's INFINITY
Tarragon Theatre and Volcano Theatre present their co-production of the world premiere of Infinity, written by one of Canada's most prolific and acclaimed writers, 2014 Trillium Award winner and a Tarragon playwright-in-residence, Hannah Moscovitch. A shocking, funny and revelatory elegy to time and love, Infinity opens Wednesday April 1 and runs to Sunday May 3 (previewing from March 25) in Tarragon's Extraspace, directed by Volcano's Artistic Director Ross Manson. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action below!
How does a new Theory of Time change everything we know about ourselves? A brilliant young woman and her parents smash together like particles colliding in an accelerator. Her father is a theoretical physicist and her mother a composer; she is a mathematician. Together, they learn that love and time are connected in ways they couldn't have imagined.
Infinity is infused with theoretical physics, classical music and the idea that what time offers us is more than we realize. Infinity has been crafted with close input from world-renowned physicist Lee Smolin of the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics and internationally acclaimed Toronto-based composer Njo Kong Kie (music director of Montreal's contemporary dance company La La La Human Steps, now dividing his time between Toronto and Macau).
