THE CARAVAN STAGE COMPANY IS SEARCHING FOR A SINGER ACTOR TO PLAY AN INUIT CHARACTER IN AN ORIGINAL SHOW ABOUT GLOBAL WARMING. THE CARAVAN IS CURRENTLY BASED IN GREECE AND THE ENGAGEMENT IS FROM THE 5th OF APRIL TO THE 22nd OF SEPTMEBER.
THE CARAVAN, founded in 1970, is a Canadian non profit experimental theatre company. The Caravan tours and performs on it's own Tall Sailing Ship called the Amara Zee, a fully equipped touring theatre facility, complete with it's own light, sound and flying systems, and living accomodations for all the actors and technicians.
THE CARAVAN performs original dance-circus-theatre, with music, songs, poetry, aerial acrobatics and video imagery, directly on the decks and in the rigging of our Tall Sailing Ship. The shows are unique and original encompassing text, character, story, poetry, music, song, dance, aerial arts and special effects.
The Caravan shows embody the themes and issues relating to the contemporary ethos of environmental degradation, gender and social conflicts, annihilation of cultural diversity, tolerance & mythology, and the impoverishment of people, species, and spirit.
THE CARAVAN 2008 SHOW IS TITLED "UTOPIAN FLOES" which deals with the theme of Cultural Change and Global Warming. You can see some pictures of the 2007 version of UTOPIAN FLOES on our website. UTOPIAN FLOES is a surreal piece set in the future when the Earth has boiled down to a few survivors...one from China, one from the Artic, one from Iraq, and one from the Marshall Islands. The work is very visual, physical, and almost fully sung accompanied with a live five piece band performing on the ship. The band consists of a electric piano, electric harp, electric cello, electric bass, and a percussionist.
