Archived April 3, 2018 25 Year Anniversary Party Date: Friday, April 13, 2018 Location: West Village Theatre (2007 10th Ave. SW) Cost: Entry by donation Sometimes, you move so fast that everything around you becomes a blur. When you’re a high-tech, laboratory-based theatre company inventing the latest aesthetics in theatrical performance—looking to the past doesn’t come naturally. It’s hard to believe GRT has been creating for 25-years! Time flies when you’re launching rocket ships (The Highest Step in the World) and sailing across the globe (The Last Voyage of Donald Crowhurst)… On Friday, April 13, 2018, Ghost River Theatre will be jumping into our time machine and cranking back the dial. From our inception with founder Doug Curtis in 1993 to our transition under long-time collaborator Jason Rothary, to the dynamic duo of Eric Rose and David van Belle, back to the present-day under the now solo-flying maverick, Rose—we invite you to a night of rowdy reminiscing. Expect lasers, confetti, cocktails, and even the odd Carebear… the sort of legendary spectacle you’ve come to expect from GRT. Doors open at 6:30pm at West Village Theatre with cocktails, followed by a showcase of surprise guests, speeches from our fearless leaders, wine and craft beer raffles, light refreshments, cash bar, and an epic dance party. Entry is by donation and/or birthday hugs at the door. About Ghost River Theatre Led by Artistic Director Eric Rose, with the support of Artistic Associate Louise Casemore, GRT is a devised theatre company that creates, develops and mounts original productions through a significant investment in imaginative research and development.
