AHA MEDIA attended The Miss Guide’s “Walking the Ruins: Fragments of Vancouver
April Smith and Peter Davies of AHA MEDIA on behalf of W2 Community Media Arts http://www.creativetechnology.org attended the “Walking the Ruins: Fragments of Vancouver with commentary by The Miss Guides made up of a art collective of Natalie Doonan, Katharine Somody and Sean George .
AHA MEDIA found the walk a delightful blend of a historical tour and a theatrical performance. It was like taking part of a National Film Board of Canada documentary but in real time and experience 🙂
A unique blend of historical tour and street theatre, this one hour walk will make you experience Vancouver as though for the first time. Using the city as their stage, The Miss Guides will lead you through the gritty underbelly of a city teeming with secrets.
From glamour to grime, Walking the Ruins explores four surprising urban sites, drawing unexpected connections between the forgotten past and overlooked present.
Audiences are limited to 12 adults, and groups meet on the Northwest corner of Granville and Hastings Streets, in front of Sinclair Centre, rain or shine ( bring an umbrella )
Walking the Ruins runs July 9 – August 1: Thursdays + Fridays at 7pm; Saturdays at 2pm.
Tickets $20 ( includes entry to Harbour Center’s The Lookout, valued at $13) available through: http://www.themissguides.com
