7:30 pm: The Listening Stage Series Presents: Assassinating Tomson7:30 pm: The Listening Stage Series Presents: Assassinating Tomson – Join us on the evening of Tuesday November 24th 2020 as critically acclaimed visually impaired visual artist Bruce Horak brings his hit show “Assassinating Thomson” to you, in your home! Presented by Common Boots Theatre in association with us here at BALANCE, we’re very excited for the first presentation in our series of “The Listening Stage.” Critically acclaimed visually impaired visual artist Bruce Horak lives with 9% of his vision and has, over the last five years, painted a series of over 500 unique portraits which attempt to capture the way that he sees, aptly named The Way I See It. As he tells the story of The Way I See It, the tale of Canadian painter Tom Thomson’s unsolved murder is interwoven throughout, including the truth and lies behind the mysterious death of one of Canada’s greatest artists and the subsequent rise of The Group of Seven. The mystery takes you from the tiny community of Canoe Lake, to the hallowed halls of our nation’s capital, and eventually on to the World stage. Art, politics, greed, ambition, love and murder are intertwined in a one-man tour-de-force as Horak exploits icons of Canadian History, including Tom Thomson, Lawren Harris, and William Lyon Mackenzie King. As he reveals his controversial perspective on Canadian Art History, he shares the unique way he sees the world through an original portrait of each new audience. This is a free event, but donations are always welcome.
