This year, once again, I acted as Creative Director of the Bell Gala in support of CAMH. Called "Aurora: The Dream Factory," the event was produced by my friends and wonderfully creative colleagues at Circo de Bakuza. It featured projections and animation created by the uncanny Felix and Paul, a host of talented dancers and live musicians, and the work of my IN THE COOLER star, the clown René Bazinet, as well as the Canadian singer Suzie McNeil. As usual, the music written, arranged and performed by my buddy Robert Marchand was 50% of what you saw — and what you saw was fun, beautiful, absurd and moving. Here are some photos from various rehearsals on site at the Direct Energy Center at Toronto's Canadian National Exhibition, where the event took place.
This wonderful video summing up the event has just been added to Vimeo:
