A Thousand and One Calgarian Nights

A Thousand and One Calgarian Nights
Verb Theatre, Alberta

Calgary Nights is a new work commissioned by the
Calgary International Children's Festival.

A Thousand and One Calgarian Nights In a new adaptation, the Thousand and One Arabian Nights stories are re-set in a mythical Canadian west. Calgary's finest actors share the stage with youth from a wide range of social, economic, and racial backgrounds to tell the tale of Aladdin, an orphan battling loss and destiny, while questing after a mythical prairie bird. Full of magic and puppets, adventure and tragedy, 1001 Calgarian Nights fills the stage with genies, wild creatures, and thousands of rubber bouncy balls.
