Micro Performance Series
Micro Performances ask the audience, which is rarely more than 20 at a time, to immerse themselves in a world of the artist’s creation. The association between audience and performer transcends more conventional forms as the two travel together in a relationship that is better described as participant and guide. These performances are not smaller versions of what would normally be larger productions, these are pieces that exploit what is only possible on a smaller, more intimate scale.
Boca del Lupo presents the Micro Performance Series (MPS) on and around Granville Island. These productions are created and performed by local, national and international artists working across disciplines in intimate and small scale forms.
The Micro Performance Series continues in May with Archipelago
The 2025 Micro Performance Series launched in January with Lasa Ng Imperyo (A Taste of Empire) by Carmela Sison (co-presented with the PuSh Festival, produced by rice & beans). Next is The Seventh Fire by Lisa Cooke Ravensbergen (produced by Neworld Theatre. Presented in association with Talking Stick Festival). Our co-presentation with Vancouver International Childrens Festival is Club Origami. The last presentation in the series was Tell Me by Anamika Deb co-presented with Indian Summer Festival.
