Pi Theatre

Archive for September, 2010

This past Sunday, September 26th, Pi took part in the annual Word on the Street festival in Library Square. Our Artistic Director Richard Wolfe treated audiences to a sneak peak of Haruki Murakami’s work with readings from after the quake, the collection of short stories on which our fall production was based.

The Word on the Street Festival is dedicated to promoting reading and literacy throughout the community. Every year poets, authors, exhibitors, publishers, performers and readers of all ages converge on Library Square in downtown Vancouver to celebrate literature and the written word.

Pi was honoured to be a part of the festival this year and we would like to thank everyone who braved the wet September weather to see Richard read. We hope to see you all at after the quake, running October 13th-23rd at the CULTCH. For more information or to purchase tickets, click here.

On August 27th, Pi hosted our first ever Pi Dinner Circle. 16 lucky guests enjoyed a spectacular six course meal under the stars in the beautiful rooftop garden of the Performing Arts Lodge. Hosted by our Artistic Director Richard Wolfe, guests enjoyed wine and conversation by candlelight. As a special treat, emerging violinist Mecca Menard played a brief program during appetizers. Pi would like to thank everyone who attended for coming out to support us. Money raised on the evening will go directly to our programming for our 2010-2011 season. We are already looking forward to the next event in our Pi Dinner Circle series.
