About this event
- Event lasts 1 hour 30 minutes
The First Ukrainian Theatre in Calgary invites you to experience the return of our critically acclaimed therapeutic physical theatre performance, “The Seagull Inside You”, inspired by Richard Bach’s Jonathan Livingston Seagull.
This unique production tells the story of Jonathan, a seagull who dares to defy expectations, seeking freedom, self-discovery, and connection. Told through the universal language of movement, this performance transcends words, allowing you to feel every moment deeply. Performed by talented Ukrainian actors who have found refuge in Canada, this production is a testament to resilience, art, and the enduring human spirit.
