Asses.masses – Live in Kelowna

Video games, donkeys and theatre collide in this thought-provoking performance!asses.masses is a solo performance for multiple players about sharing the load of revolution.In each performance, audience members step forward one at a time from the herd to seize the means of production (i.e. a video game controller) and lead us through a world of asses (donkeys) in pursuit of a just life.Following the narratives of multiple asses as they contemplate labour politics and protest against their Human oppressors, this video game performance is a journey through the obsolescence of the manual labourer, political idealism, digital labour, and virtual revolution.The show is the work of Patrick Blenkarn and Milton Lim, and has been performed internationally. Following the Kelowna presentation at the end of February 2020, asses.masses will be visiting UNO Festival (Victoria), rEvolver Festival (Vancouver), and Zaratan (Libson). Please join us for this unique performance.asses.masses visits the Mary Irwin Theatre on Friday, February 28, 2020, at 7:15 pm. Advance tickets start at $14.
