Icarus, Falling of Birds is an experience by Gale Force Theatre of poetry on an epic scale. In September of 2013, thousands of migratory songbirds perished after being lured like moths to a flame to a hundred-foot-high flare at the Canaport Liquefied Natural Gas plant in Saint John, New Brunswick. This unique outdoor performance, adapted from the book of poetry and photography of the same name by Harry Thurston and Thaddeus Holownia, features a reading by the poet, large-scale puppetry, a string trio, and a youth ensemble of performers. As an audience member, you'll walk from scene to scene, taking in each striking element of this performance situated in the landscape where these same birds may have made their homes.
