Join One Yellow Rabbit for the 2009 High Performance Rodeo Launch at the Big Secret Theatre, EPCOR Centre for the Performing Arts
205 8th Avenue S.E.
Wednesday, October 8 at 12 Noon
Celebrating its 23rd year, the High Performance Rodeo, Calgary’s International Festival of the Arts, has mapped the craggy edge of new, original and unusual live performance and has landed firmly in Canada’s cultural consciousness. While the complete line up for the 2009 Rodeo won’t be announced until mid-Fall, OYR is excited to give patrons a sneak peek of what’s to come.
OYR is pleased to announce world-renowned composer, Philip Glass, will be this year’s artist-in-residence. The residency will include a variety of live appearances and performances by Glass, as well as a special co-presentation with the Calgary Philharmonic Orchestra’s premiere of Glass’ symphony, Low. Other Rodeo treats include the Calgary premiere of Catalyst Theatre’s Frankenstein, co-presented by OYR and Theatre Calgary, and the return of His Excellency Jean-Daniel Lafond as the 2009 Honorary Patron.
