With some of Vancouver's most celebrated stage actors, director Kim Collier, winner of the 2010 Siminovitch Prize in Theatre for direction, creates an extremely personal and close-up experience as she re-envisions Tad Mosel’s 1961 Pulitzer Prize winning play as an immersive encounter where the audience, from within the world of the play, witnesses the gorgeously crafted journey of spiritual transformation.

 

In an experience unique to most, the audience will enter the Queen Elizabeth Theatre from the stage doors and walk into the set from the wings. Sitting among the action within the various rooms of the family’s home, on the lawn outside, or along the dusty road that travels by, the narrative surrounds the viewer from all sides, providing an uncommonly personal encounter with the story and the performers.

Currently an associate artist with Toronto’s Canadian stage, Electric Company co-founder Kim Collier has become a leading voice in Canadian theatre and one of the country’s most undeniably inspired directors. With All The Way Home Electric Company follows up last year’s spectacular film/theatre hybrid Tear the Curtain with Collier’s daring vision of an unplugged celebration of the power of the unmediated performance.
