Details
Let’s get a small group of people together for Sacre. Shall we meet early to have a chat and/or drink in the lobby? 7:30pm? As the event is next weekend, we’ll need to finalize tickets pretty soon. I do hope we can sit together! I plan to buy my $35 price point tickets soon. Hopefully, I can find some near 4 other empty seats. Once tickets are purchased I will post my seat numbers. I will be attending with a friend. She and I would be happy to have four others join us! Hope you can attend! Joanne — Circa (Australia) Created by Yaron Lifschitz and the Circa Ensemble Director Yaron Lifschitz Ten acrobats from the Circa ensemble bring Stravinsky’s seminal The Rite of Spring to the circus stage. Pulsating with tension and infused with dark humour, this distinctive production from Artistic Director Yaron Lifschitz confronts humanity’s inter-connectivity, our inherent sexual desire and relationship with divinity. Featuring a piercing lighting design by Veronique Benett and a stirring new composition by Philippe Bachman for the first half, Sacre penetrates the senses and stirs the soul.

Great! Let's aim for 7:15pm. Looking forward.
Lily
Sounds good! See you there at 7:15pm.
Joanne
Hi Sacre attendees! I just purchased two tickets for Jess and I. Sorry there are no $35 seats left. We are in the $69 range now. Saturday is popular and we are late in the game. I hope this doesn't change things for you. We will be in Orchestra Left. I bought Row 15, Seat 14,15. I recommend Lily and James buy Row 15, Seat 16, 17. Additional person could buy Seat 18. Looking forward! What a special night we will have :)
James
Hi there, just saw your message. Orch Left/15/16 was gone so I grabbed Orch Left/15/17. :)
Joanne
We did it! Way to go, gang. I think we have one more seat, Row 15 Seat 18, should anyone new wish to join us in our row.
James
7:15 is fine for me too
Lee
I’ve got seat 18. See you all there! 🥳
Joanne
Hi Natasha, we're glad you can join us. There's a catch in that there's no seats left in our row. However, I checked and the good news is that there's a seat available directly in front of us. We are Row 15, Seats 14-18. The available seat is Row 14, Seat 14. If this sounds okay, snag that seat as soon as you can! ALL ATTENDEES: Any interest in moving up the meeting time to 7pm or 7:15pm? This way, we can all mingle beforehand. The venue opens 1 hr before.
Natasha
Hi Joanne, thanks for your email! I was booked in another row and after a few calls today was able to secure the seat in front of you :) Looking forward to meeting the group at 7:15pm
Lily
So exciting! Thanks for organizing Joanne! I'll buy my ticket as soon as you post your seat number.
Joanne
Awesome! 🎉 💃🏻 See you there! I checked the website and doors open one hour before. Would anyone like to move our start time up to 7:00 or 7:15pm? This might be a little more relaxed, eventful and social. Let me know and I’ll make sure all are informed.
Lee
I’ll can be there by 7:15.
Joanne
That's great to hear, Natasha! Thanks for making the effort; it will be nice to have you near us. See you then. :)
Joanne
Reminder that we will meet at 7:15pm to the left of the bar. See you tomorrow! Can’t wait! :)
Lee
I’ve arrived and am seated in the foyer adjacent to the bar/snack counter
James
There in 5 minutes
Lily
Thanks again Joanne for organizing this! It was amazing! 🙂 For whomever interested, I saw BC Ballet a couple of years ago. It was similar to what we saw tonight (not quite the same and with less circus moves). Hopefully, we can plan to go together when they have a performance: https://balletbc.com/video/heart-drive-imre-and-marne-van-opstal-stage-trailer-ballet-bc-2022-overtures/
Joanne
Thanks everyone for joining me for this amazing performance! It was such a special treat to experience this with you. A few of you asked how I heard about it. After some thought, I realized I first heard of it through a flyer in the mail. I’m a subscriber to The Cultch. Lily, that’s a wonderful idea!
Joanne
Correction… was a subscriber. I still get their mail outs. :)
Lee
Thanks again, Joanne! See you soon.
Natasha
Fantastic show! Joanne, you’re a genius :) Thank you everyone for letting me join; it was a pleasure to meet you all. Great idea Lily 👌
James
Great seeing/meeting you all! Fantastic show! Thanks Joanne for organizing and letting us know about Sacre before the show left Vancouver! And great idea Lily re the BC Ballet. 😊 Hope to see you all again soon!!
James
So looking forward to this! I looked up the trailer video, it looks amazing!
