RUSH TICKETS !!! The Blue Dragon (Royal Alex Theatre $20)

Join us for The Blue Dragon, a multi-media drama at the Royal Alexandra Theatre. 

UPDATE Feb. 17 @ 6 p.m.: It's expected rush tickets will be available for this performance. The price will be $20 cash each and will go on sale at the box office beginning at 6 p.m. It's best to be in the lineup early since the rush tickets will likely sell out. Each person can buy up to two rush tickets. To check on availability of rush tickets, call the box office at [masked], ext. 0 prior to going to the theatre.

THE SHOW: Robert Lepage, Canada’s internationally acclaimed theatrical genius, brings Toronto The Blue Dragon, an evocative tale of a Canadian in modern day China. The story is told with eloquent dance, electrifying performance and spectacular, cinematic staging.

The life of an expat Canadian living in Shanghai is turned upside down by two women — one from his Western past and one from his Asian present. Written by Robert Lepage and Marie Michaud, The Blue Dragon is a sequel to their brilliant collaborative work, The Dragon's Trilogy. The Blue Dragon shimmers with all Lepage’s hallmark hi-tech wizardry and storytelling magic! For more information, see http://www.mirvish.com/shows/thebluedragon

    A visual masterpiece. Very unique and interesting production. One of the best I've seen in awhile at a Mirvish theatre. A warm welcome to first-time attendees Bruce, Gabriel, Maryvonne, Peyton and Renana, and guests Karl, Shirel and Tamer.
