life, so far is an interdisciplinary, multi-sensory performance that invites audiences to slow down and reflect on what / how / why they are living. This durational choose-your-own-adventure is designed to be touched, heard, and felt. Memories are triggered through tactile exploration driven by audience curiosity.

About MSG LAB
The MSG Lab is Vancouver Asian Canadian Theatre’s annual new work development program. We present three brand new work-in-progress showings over the course of three days. The showing includes a moderated talkback, where the audience will have an opportunity to provide feedback and share their experience with the artists.
Facilitating the creation and development of new theatrical work by emerging and mid-career Asian Canadian artists, this program is our commitment to the next generation of Asian Canadian theatre-makers. The MSG Lab showcases stories from Asian Canadian perspectives and develops new works for future production opportunities.
