Flight

Single Events Vancouver Opera’s 65th season soars into 2025 with a new production of Flight, a contemporary masterpiece by renowned composer Jonathan Dove. Celebrated as the greatest opera of the past 30 years, Flight graces the Queen Elizabeth Theatre stage for three performances in February 2025. Inspired by a remarkable true story—one that also inspired the Tom Hanks movie The Terminal—Flight masterfully blends humour, heartbreak, and hope into an unforgettable operatic experience. This stunning production is helmed by the internationally acclaimed Canadian creative team of Morris Panych (director), Ken MacDonald (set designer) Dana Osborne (costume designer) and Alan Brodie (Lighting Designer). Their visionary approach promises to bring a fresh and compelling perspective to the Vancouver Opera debut of Dove's work. Opera audiences may recall its acclaimed Canadian premiere by Pacific Opera (Victoria) in February 2020. In the unlikely setting of an airport departure lounge, Flight is a wildly engaging, melodically acc… Event Summary: Drawing inspiration from the heart-wrenching true story of an Iranian refugee bureaucratically marooned in Paris’ Charles de Gaulle Airport for 18 years, Jonathan Dove’s Flight pulls off an improbable feat: it’s a wildly-engaging, melodically-accessible comedy, a triumph of pathos, and an absolute must-see!

Women of the Fur Trade

Single Events The Firehall Arts Centre is proud to produce and present Women of the Fur Trade from Saturday, February 8 to Sunday, February 23, 2025. Set in eighteen hundred and something-something, somewhere upon the banks of a Reddish River in Treaty One Territory, three very different women with a preference for 21st century slang find themselves stuck in a fort having tea and sharing their views on life, love, and Louis Riel. Playwright Frances Koncan shifts the focus in this powerfully funny satire from the male gaze on history to the power of women and their place in the rapidly changing world of the Canadian fur trade. “I am truly excited to be producing the West Coast premiere of this work,” says Firehall Arts Centre’s Artistic Producer Donna Spencer. “Frances Koncan’s satirical look at the lives of women during the time of Louis Riel and the colonization of Canada is a very clever way of illustrating the dismantling of the traditional lives of Métis and Indigenous people of the time.
