JAPANESE PROBLEM is the award-winning, site-responsive experience about the Japanese Canadian incarceration at Hastings Park.
JAPANESE PROBLEM invites a small audience into a stall, which residents have turned into a temporary home and place of wonder, as they are filled with the uncertainty of their next destination.
The piece exists in the contemporary moment simultaneously, where evidence of Hastings Parks’ former tenants has been erased, where survivors are uncertain if they want their names included in a memorial; and where refugees to North America are being treated in a fashion that is terrifyingly familiar.
**This presentation involves an audience lightly walking, though there are spaces to sit along the way. We hope you reserve those spots for those that need them most.
To get to the Robert Gill Theatre Lobby,, enter through the St. George Street entrance, on the northwest corner of College and St. George St. and take the elevator/stairs to the 3rd floor, following signs to the Robert Gill Theatre.
Run time is 1 hour (includes 15 minute post show discussion)
