Last Landscape Full Archival by Bad New Days

Bad New Days, in association with Common Boots Theatre, presents, LAST LANDSCAPE Conception, Direction, and Design Concept by Adam Paolozza In a sometime somewhere devoid of nature, posthuman ‘workers’ enter an empty space and assemble a series of artificial landscapes out of found objects, striving with their bodies to recreate the natural world from memory. But is it the deep past we see, or some genetically modified future? The world premiere of Last Landscape blends Bad New Days’ signature brand of physical theatre with an eco-dramaturgical, DIY aesthetic to create a slowly transforming, imagistic meditation on extinction, ecological grief and interspecies care, where colossal puppets of prehistoric megafauna roam free. On the brink of environmental collapse, Last Landscape offers hopeful possibilities for how we might share this big green miraclemarble. Last Landscape was awarded the Ray Ferris Sustainability and Innovation Grant from Tapa, and was nominated for 8 Dora theatre awards in Toronto, winning 2 for Original Design and Music. "Last Landscape is a remarkable work that invites the audience into a shared experience of quiet playfulness, contemplation, and transformation. As we observe a small company of clown-workers build, break down, and rebuild natural environments onstage, broader meanings emerge: about humankind’s relationship to the more-than-human; and about the feelings and associations that arrive when we slow down and re-experience the world without the mediation of technology. On the one hand, nothing about this show is disguised or mystified, but director/creator Adam Paolozza expertly layers elements – physical performance, live sound design, evocative lighting, puppetry and object manipulation – to create a powerfully resonant experience that suggests renewed ways of being in the world and with others. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen a Canadian theatre piece that stirred me as deeply." – Karen Fricker, editorial director, Intermission Magazine To learn more about Last Landscape, including an UPK visit wwwbadnewdays.com Creative Producer Victor Pokinko ​Performed by Nada Abusaleh, Nicholas Eddie, Gibum Dante Lim, Annie Luján, Adam Paolozza, and Kari Pederson.
