The Georgia Straight proudly sponsors The Old Trout Puppet Workshop’s Ignorance

In Ignorance, cavemen explain where humans went wrong.

It’s getting harder to remember a time when the Internet didn’t exist. A time before Tweeting, and Skyping, and hot yoga, and television. Ignorance, by The Old Trout Puppet Workshop, is puppet theatre about the evolution of happiness—namely, when we lost it and how we might get back to it again.

Ignorance looks to our prehistoric ancestors—grunting, bone-gnawing cavemen—to explain where we went wrong.

The Old Trout Puppet Workshop started in Alberta in 1999 when a group of friends began carving puppets and using their creations to tell stories. Ignorance is the Old Trout’s first attempt at open creation: the entire show has been written on the web for readers to comment, criticize, and contribute to.

Ignorance runs at The Cultch’s Historic Theatre (1859 Venables Street) from February 28 to March 4, 6 to 10 at 8 p.m., with matinee shows at 2 p.m. on March 3 and 10. Tickets start at $16 and can be purchased online or by calling the Cultch box office at 604-251-1363.
