Themes of Mental Illness and Suicide
ONE YELLOW RABBIT PRESENTS I WOULD PREFER NOT TO
A STRANGE VICTORY PERFORMANCE
Part confessional, part fiction, all heart this bold new piece from award-winning artists David Gagnon Walker and Tori Morrison, dive into the rhythms of mental illness, memory and meaning.
Words repeat. Stories fracture. Truth and fiction twist together like melody and echo. With sound and silence, humour and heartbreak, this production asks: How do you keep going when the song won’t end?
If you’ve ever felt stuck, this one’s for you.
