Flop
Welcome to the world of Flop: a tragicomic tale of ambition, inspiration, idealism, and the bungling, fumbling, belly-flopping attempt to express it.
Trace the visions of an eccentric recluse as she builds her dream home from the inside out. Follow her three talented, young architects, shaken to their foundations in the grotesque shadow of human endeavour. Watch in horror as the collaborative process is pushed to its breaking point -- and beyond!
The original Electric Company quartet now regroups to work in the pure language of images and ideas that they have accumulated over five years of working together.
Audiences embark on a high-voltage journey, filled with the physical and visual vocabulary of live theatre, performed by a group famous across Canada for their "dizzying theatricality".
A celebration of failure, Flop is belated applause for the pipe dreams and ill-fated visions that characterize our best and worst moments as mothers of invention.
Come experience a harrowing night of theatre, balancing precariously on the brink of disaster; a maze of unexpected twists and turns, hidden stairwells, and unmarked trip-wires.
