Dreamscapes Screening: National Tour Kick-Off
✨ ABOUT THE DREAMSCAPES NATIONAL TOUR KICK-OFF
Ghost Rooster Collective is thrilled to launch the Dreamscapes national tour in partnership with Tangled Art + Disability in Toronto! Join us for an energizing evening of experimental film, live performance, and a post-show artist talk-back. This event marks the start of our cross-country journey, blending glamour with the weird, wild, and deeply sincere. Expect trolls, tears, twists, puppets, projection, dance, drama, and more as we share Dreamscapes in Toronto for the very first time.
✨ ABOUT THE FILM
Dreamscapes is a genre-blurring experimental film that delves into mental health, alternate realities, and the complex journey of healing. Centered on an intimate interview with Amelia Rose Griffin, the film brings her personal experiences of navigating multiple realities to life through vivid dreamscapes. This portrayal offers a unique perspective on Disability, inviting audiences to step into Amelia’s reality and explore the experience of disability beyond a medicalized lens.
Ghost Rooster Collective gratefully acknowledges the support of the Canada Council for the Arts, the Ontario Arts Council and the City of Ottawa. Thank you to Ottawa Dance Directive for their continued support.
