About

The phrase “in concert” comes full circle in an all-new artistic collaboration between Juno-award winning The Bros. Landreth and up-and-coming choreographer Philippe Larouche. This fresh addition to the RWB season also showcases work from Mark Godden and emerging choreographer Jera Wolfe for a diverse evening of performances.​

NEXT OF KIN
Next of Kin takes a look at the intergenerational impact of addiction. The story follows Brother, a desperate man in his late twenties, who has been battling with addiction since his teens. As his marriage and his relationship with his sister are affected, he spirals into darkness. The stage is flooded with his ancestors who strive to heal the family of the wounds which have burdened it for generations. Next of Kin is inspired and enriched by the music of The Bros. Landreth and has the power to resonate deeply with many families.

English to ASL translation will be provided throughout the performance.
