Vancity Theatre16 Jan '18 to 04 Feb '18 @ 10:00 AM - 10:00 PM
  • PuSh Festival Reveals 2018 Lineup of PuSh Film Series
The PuSh International Performing Arts Festival (PuSh Festival) announces its 14th annual edition, taking place January 16 to February 4, 2018 at various Vancouver venues. The 2018 PuSh Festival offers industry networking events at the PuSh Assembly, visionary films in the PuSh Film Series, professional workshops, artist talks, and many more ancillary events.
 
Each year, PuSh Festival is proud to partner with international collaborators in artistic exchange. In 2018, the Festival features a Spotlight on Ireland, a suite of works from the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland. This captivating snapshot of the Emerald Isle and the creativity that springs from it is made possible by the support of Culture Ireland.
 
PUSH FILM SERIES
A film series to round out the PuSh Festival experience of the performing arts. The darkened cinema mirrors the darkened theatre in illuminating and surprising ways.
 
The Making of Justice – Director: Sarah Vanhee (Belgium/The Neatherlands)
Jan 16 | Vancity Theatre
Presented with Vancouver International Film Festival
In this chilling and provocative documentary, seven convicted murderers work with the director to plot a crime film. Bringing their own experiences to the table, they present a connection to violence that no fiction film can claim.
 
The Walkers – Director: Singing Chen (Taiwan)
Jan 23 | Vancity Theatre
Presented with Vancouver International Film Festival
Choreographer Lin Lee-Chen creates brilliant works of movement and colour; in this documentary, the director presents a style to match her subject. The film employs a visual lyricism that evokes the dance master’s grace as much as it documents it.
 
History History History – Deborah Pearson (England)
Jan 30 | Vancity Theatre
Presented with Vancouver International Film Festival
At the centre of this live performance is a Soviet-sponsored sports comedy released in the 1950s that became tied to a political uprising, making a mark on world history. Using the film as material, Pearson creates a live documentary onstage, fusing the political, the historical and the achingly personal.
 
PUSH ASSEMBLY
The PuSh Assembly is an open invitation to industry insiders and arts aficionados alike to gather, to connect and to share ideas and perspectives around the performing arts. The 2018 PuSh Assembly is designed in two series: Ideas (free and open to the public) and Industry (accessible with a PuSh Industry Pass). The PuSh Assembly events engage audiences and industry professionals with the Festival artists through artist talks, a dialogue series and networking opportunities.
