Still With Us—Performance Series

In partnership with the Victoria Arts Council

This show is part of the Victoria Arts Council’s month-long event, STILL WITH US: A Legacy of HIV/AIDS in the Arts — an ambitious project, two years in the making, that brings together local and international partners from the literary, performing, and visual arts communities, in association with a leading local health agency. Tickets for this show will be available October 1. Learn more about the other events HERE.

This performance series includes: A welcome drum song from Aunty Collective; Saying Goodbye to My Brother, a remount by Lynda Raino of the duet she choreographed and performed with Shawn Costello (1961-1989) in 1988, co-presented by Dance Victoria; an excerpt from i am beauty, a new verbatim opera by librettist Rick Waines and composer Mary Jane Coomber featuring four vocalists and accompaniment, activating the HIV in My Day oral history research project housed at the University of Victoria; and The Viral Monologues featuring first-person accounts from the frontlines by AVI Health & Community Services affiliates, remounted by Intrepid Theatre.

** A portion of proceeds from ticket sales will be donated to AVI Health & Community Services (recognizing 40 years of support this year).
