Friday, 28 April 2023 - THE IDENTITY BUREAU is a bold existential theatrical production that explores the importance of one's identity. Set in the very near future, the Identity Bureau is a place that assigns identities and traits to all citizens. It's the last day citizens can make identity updates and pay fines before the big system rehaul. Meant to create calm, the Bureau creates chaos as we witness the absurdity of not simply deciding to be who we truly are. Created by diverse Metro Vancouver youth with playwright and director Valerie Methot, and several industry professionals, this timely theatre piece stems from conversations with youth who spoke about damaging effects when their identity is disrespected. THE IDENTITY BUREAU engages and entertains with topical relevance, humour, original music, and inspiration. The Roundhouse Performance Centre April 28, 7:30pm | April 29, 7:30pm | May 1 & 2, 11:00am & 1:30pm for school groups -
