Inner Sublimity traverses currents of Eastern and Western philosophy through dance, creating a dynamic dialogue between traditions preserved across generations. This cross-pollination bridges Taiwan’s heritage, grounded in reverence and ritual, with Europe’s tapestry of religious practices, carving an artistic approach that challenges colonial narratives and enriches contemporary explorations of spirituality.

Persephone Theatre proudly presents "Bright Half Life," a captivating play that spans decades in an instant, exploring the sapphic love story of Vicky and Erica. From their first encounter to falling in love, marriage, children, and even skydiving, this play beautifully captures the infinite moments that make a life together. Written by a Pulitzer prize-nominated playwright, it delves into the complexities of love and the realization that your life is forever intertwined with another's.

This heartfelt story is recommended for ages 13 and up, with a content advisory for non-linear timeline and cursing. The production boasts a talented cast and crew, including Kris Alvarez as Vicky, Margo MacDonald as Erica, and directed by Kathryn Smith, with a team of dedicated designers and managers bringing the story to life.

The show runs from September 13 to October 1, 2023, at the Remai Arts Centre, marking the kickoff of Persephone Theatre's 49th season with this creative queer love story. Special events include a Pride Night with Saskatoon Pride on September 28, 2023, offering an evening of theatre followed by a gathering.

For those interested in diving deeper into the themes of "Bright Half Life," Persephone Theatre has partnered with Turning the Tide Bookstore to create a reading list inspired by the performance.
