Songs For A New World is a rare kind of show, neither a musical nor a revue, but a song cycle, exploring immigration, war, motherhood, poverty, and the singular moments that transform our lives.
Fabulist Theatre is a new company in Vancouver committed to producing shows that promote diversity in all forms and creating opportunities for a wide variety of performers. For Songs For A New World, a show traditionally done with a four-person cast, the directors have expanded the cast to fifteen, ranging in age from 11 - 62. Some are seasoned professionals, many are exceptionally talented amateurs. Some are new to Vancouver’s theatre scene, and some are even new to Canada.
Audience members will be taken on a journey to new worlds including Ethiopia, Syria, Afghanistan, the North Pole, the Philippines, a Vancouver penthouse, colonial America, the Bronx, the, and the middle of the Pacific Ocean. [Fabulist Theatre will be providing free tickets to new immigrants as part of the Welcome Centre Arts Program as well as donating partial profits to the UNHCR].
