Christian Cagigal - Now and at the Hour

SOLOS Festival

Company website

What does a boy do when he grows up with a father who is forever mentally altered from his time in War? He retreats into a world of magic.

Now and at the Hour is the semi-autobiographical magical tale of what it was like for Cagigal to be raised by his father, a Vietnam vet, afflicted with PTSD and Schizophrenia, and how that both inspired and pushed Cagigal into realms of magic, mystery and the unknown.

Now and at the Hour weaves memory, mind reading, storytelling and theatre into an intimate, highly interactive and altogether unnerving magical experience.

Cagigal is among the new crop of magicians, mentalists and theatre artists that dare to go beyond the usual bag of tricks and invite audiences on stage to become a part of the story and a part of the show, making Now and at the Hour, for all who come to see it, a truly personal experience.

INSIDE MADPOETIX STUDIO is revolutionizing our Soirées Intimes Series by allowing the audience to get to know the feature performer through an interview during the show live. The artist will be interviewed by our host Kym Dominique Ferguson @Mrkdferguson. This is a one of a kind experience. There will be 8 Open Mic spots available for all genres: spoken word, poetry, comedy, singers, clowns, dancers, you name it we welcome it. They are each given a 5 min timeslot.

"Tango in fusion est une œuvre qui combine l’art du tango avec différents styles de danse. Ceux-ci permettent de visualiser par le mouvement et la dramaturgie, certains conflits socioculturels et émotionnels auxquels nous sommes tous confrontés.

Les artistes de tango in fusion s’expriment à travers d’histoires personnelles une extase de la danse du tango dans son essence. Ce qui permet aussi avec la diversité des autres types de mouvements et musique. une connexion avec le spectateur afin de visualiser et briser différents stéréotypes socioculturels."

A hotel you can stay in…forever. Staff are eager to help, and metaphysical boundaries are mostly respected. That is, until a has-been celebrity comes to stay.
