Theatre: We're All In This Together

Vancouver Moving Theatre, in association with urban ink’s Fathom Labs
and the Carnegie & Roundhouse Community Centres, present live shadow theatre on a giant shadow screen featuring 30 DTES involved musicians, crew and actors!

We’re All in This Together is a contemporary fable from the Downtown Eastside
Two families from different social backgrounds encounter humanity’s struggle with addiction. Out of the shadows emerge dreams and memories, fears, hopes and visions.
