Reflector

“REMARKABLE, MOVING, VISUALLY EPIC REFLECTOR”

A photographer captures a critical moment, never expecting the personal and global impact it generates. Four people, one iconic image, a billion shares.

Reflector is about tricks of the eye and the mind and how images and information can be framed and manipulated. It is about the shared image and what makes certain ones stand out in a world of 2.5 billion cameras. Part of Theatre Gargantua’s 25th Anniversary Season.

“…the dialogue is breathtaking. A single photograph has power. It can stop us in our track. This is what Reflector explores, and it does so beautifully.” Intermission Magazine

 

“…an engaging and arresting eighty minutes of complex, socially conscious theatre.” Bateman Reviews

“…if a picture is worth a thousand words, cutting-edge theatre has just proven it’s worth a million thanks to an introspective multi-media event that’s pleasantly nuanced and deeply stimulating…stunningly beautiful and surprisingly refreshing” TorontoStage.com

“The impact of image on memory, identity and social change in the remarkable, moving, visually epic Reflector.” Cate McKim
