<p class="MsoNormal"><b><i><span lang="EN-CA">carried away on the crest of a wave</span></i></b><span lang="EN-CA"> is a series of stories that follow the impacts of the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami as they resonate, intersect globally, and move us with the power
of water and the beauty of human resilience. The deadliest tsunami in recorded history, the waves killed over 250,000 people from forty-six countries as they struck the coasts of fourteen nations spanning two continents. In the aftermath, we find a wide range
of humanity: a conflicted priest, sisters of legend, an orphaned boy, a radio shock jock, an awed scientist, and a man who makes miraculous discoveries in the aftermath of the disaster.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-CA"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-CA">Written by <b>David Yee</b>, the audience bears witness to the experiences of people from around the world who have been changed in their minds and souls by this event. These stories represent glimpses of the human spirit,
facing enormous adversity yet driven by a will to come together for reflection and sharing — a desire that our own pandemic-impacted world knows all too well. The staging of
<b><i>scenes from </i>c<i>arried away on the crest of a wave</i></b> will reveal the effects of a global natural disaster through a surreal lens. In the ebb and flow of trauma, the unconscious and perceptual space of dreams will exist alongside and within our
experience and understanding of reality. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-HK"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-HK">Director <b>Andy Houston</b> collaborates with
<b>Denyse Karn</b> (set and props), <b>Howard J. Davis</b> (projections), and <b>
Deanna Choi</b> (sound), as well as resident designers <b>Nadine Grant</b> (costume) and
<b>Nicole Reid</b> (lighting). Together, they weave together a dream-like world of found objects, images, and people amidst an environment as fluid as floodwaters from a tsunami.
